I Am Thor Trailer


For those who are too young to remember, as well as being a mythological character, Thor was a huge star in the 70's and 80's. The character was brought to life by Jon Mikl Thor who initially acted as a bodybuilder.

'Thor: The Dark World' Boosted By 'The Avengers' Success To Score $86 Mil. On Opening Weekend

There is no denying the film's immediate success, even on the back of some lukewarm reviews, but how much of this success can be attributed to the film as a stand-alone product, rather than a new piece of an already successful pie.
