    The first MCU Thor movie is what got me into the character, and it is a great introduction for him and his world… however, seeing a movie like this, that really dives into his mythology is something I would absolutely love to see at some point in the future and I hope we get it someday soon. Matthew Vaughn had a fun and interesting take on the character

    Matthew Vaughn was going to make a movie about Thor in 2000s. and got cancelled. Wow. I love to see Heath Ledger as Thor and Jude Law as Loki

    If I was ever given the opportunity to direct any Marvel movie, I would tackle a Thor film series. Wish we got Vaughn's film, but I'm still glad of the first Thor film by Kenneth Branagh, I would take that over any of the other Thor films any day of the week.

    This sounds like a better version of the movie we ended up getting. I like Thor just the way it is, but I can't deny that the original version had a lot more imagination and more interesting themes to play with; A hero lands on Earth surrounded by people who worship him, how does he respond to that? That's a much deeper story than what we actually got.

    I have heard that Paramount and Marvel had a partnership during the foundation days of MCU and it was Paramount that attached Mark Protosevitch and then Matthew came in

    • @SupervoidCinema
      @SupervoidCinema  День тому +5

      Marvel hired him before Paramount got involved with their deal. In 2006, Marvel Studios signed a 6-movie distribution deal with Paramount, covering films up to Iron Man 3. Disney, after acquiring Marvel, purchased the distribution rights for The Avengers and Iron Man 3 in 2010. This led to Disney distributing those films while still showing Paramount's logo, as per the original deal. By 2013, just before Captain America's release, Disney secured the home entertainment and distribution rights for all earlier Marvel films from Paramount.

    I'll give Marvel this
    A $300 million budget for a single film is INSANE for this era (most expensive film at the time was Pirates 4 with $379 million) and superhero films were not nearly making that much money to excuse that budget unless the film was about Spider-Man or Batman.

    • @AFchris77
      @AFchris77 День тому +1

      @@OvertheHedge06 yeah that makes sense. Plus while Iron Man was successful, Marvel was still kinda struggling at the time with money. From what I remember this was their last push before they might have gone under and/or sell off more characters like Hulk w MGM and Sony w our friendly neighborhood Spider-Man.

  • @cinemaarts8795
    @cinemaarts8795 22 години тому +1

    Sounds like Vaugh and Protosevich wanted to make a movie about Norse mythology (great idea btw) rather than a Mavel movie.
    Also, through most of the early development of Thor, Daniel Craig was the favorite choice for Thor himself but Craig didn't want to tackle two major franchises (the other one being James Bond) and general lack of interest.

    So this sounds nice and all, but I liked the Thor we got I mean I could be biased since I grew up with it, but I like the movie, I don’t however don’t like that in love and thunder they just made a joke that the characters from the previous movies died in ragnarok. But other than that I like what marvel has been doing with Thor, and yes you can disagree with me likking Thor love and thunder since I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea.

  • @kaankaraca2001

    Very interesting. The script might have been great, but so much could have gone wrong. For one, obviously the budget would be a massive risk for the Marvel that was just starting out then. Second, it would be a huge undertaking for Matthew Vaughn to commit to an epic such as that, as he is far more of a pulpy, light espionage kind of director from what we’ve seen-I think George Miller or, as a recent example, Robert Eggers would be a far better fit for that script. Third, there is always a risk for ambitious scripts to lose focus and crumble under its own weight with several characters and convoluted subplots, which could present itself, if not in writing then definitely during shooting and editing, especially when changes happen mid production-of course these can be prevented with good planning and preparation, but the bigger the production the more difficult it is to keep a handle on everything, so once again it may have been too big for Marvel to try back then.
    For what it’s worth, I love the 2011 film for the balance of the extremes-it’s grand, mythical, humorous, *and* sincere. There is also the idea of “magic being advanced science” and tying that to Jane Foster with the romance that I deeply appreciate, and that’s also true to the comics. But I do also love the idea of setting it in viking times, which could hammer home some of the themes better and would certainly be more enjoyable/thematically resonant than modern day New Mexico (the “Hercules in New York” comment is a bit true, but you sort of have to do that if you want him to join the Avengers-even so, maybe it would be better to keep to the myth and lore for the origin). Could it have gone the Wonder Woman 2017 and have had Thor “around” since viking times, and he visits for the Avengers centuries later? Possibly, though you’d have to explain why Loki waited so long-and this is once again under the impression that they’d tie it to the MCU.
    Idk, there’s pros and cons for both approaches and I love what we got, though the sequels leave a lot to be desired. I would have loved if they kept Protosevitch to write the sequel with Alan Taylor directing, but the Whedon style humor sort of took over the MCU at that point, and the Waititi humor later on destroyed any semblance of sincerity and epicness left. Perhaps that can change with Thor 5 by George Miller if it happens though!

    Thank God we got Branagh's version. I doubt a goofball like Vaugn would've commited to a "realistic" and "gritty" take. At least we got a solid origin story with a killer cast.
