Since The Avengers is in the can and ready for release May 4th, it’s time to move on to the sequels to the standalone Marvel films. The Press spoke to Chris Hemsworth about reprising his role as Thor for the third time and he said he’s excited to return to Asgard.

Kenneth Branagh directed the first film, but Game of Thrones director Alan Taylor is taking the reigns on Thor 2 and if Hemsworth has his way Taylor may be taking our hero and his world in a new direction:

“Alan Taylor, one of the directors and creators of Game Of Thrones, is directing it. What I love about that series is the mythical element to it, but that world that they lived in was entirely tangible and organic. It was all real locations, not green screen.

“I think Thor and Asgard could use that. That would be a huge plus, to not have worlds that are too clinical and ethereal, and have places that look like they have existed for thousands of years. I think this would be more locations and less green screen.”

Sounds good to me.

Referring to the Avengers lead-in films, I don’t think Marvel has made a bad movie yet. Some (Iron Man, Captain America) have been better than others (Iron Man 2), but in my opinion none of them have been bad. What do you think?
