I bet a lot of GB saw Jumping the Broom since so many of you are all about racial equality and stuff.

The only problem is that I recall his history being that Dr. Donald Blake was a 'cripple' doctor who found a stick and when he struck it against the ground he was transformed into Thor and the stick into mjorlnir. I am sure someone can clear that up...or I can stop being a lazy fuck and wikipedia it.

The original story... yes... but Thor has been separated from Donald Blake for a long time now... He was merged with Eric Masterson briefly, and then sent to the Underworld with Mephisto, when Eric Masterson actually had Thor's power and his own mind.

I do not believe Thor has been merged since then.

UPDATE: THOR Sequel Slated For 2013; Kenneth Branagh NOT Returning To Direct!
Recent reports reveal that Marvel and Disney are not only moving forward with a sequel to their praised-THOR film, but doing so without it's original director, Kenneth Branagh!
It's been almost two months since Marvel & Kenneth Branagh's praised-THOR movie hit theaters, grossing $437 million worldwide. And with the Marvel Studios' president of production, Kevin Fiege, revealing last month that a sequel had only been discussed, Deadline has surprisingly revealed it's intended release, but that's not all they've revealed. It seems Iron Man 3 won't be the only 2013 sequel with a new director.

Marvel Studios is making a full commitment to Thor 2, with Chris Hemsworth reprising his role as the title hero. Marvel will need to hire a director for that film because, I've learned, Kenneth Branagh won't be returning as helmer. His exit was "mutual and amicable," I'm told. That means a big job is out there that a lot of directors and their agents will be chasing over the upcoming holiday. Disney will today finalize a release date for Thor 2, which will be released sometime in the summer, 2013. Variety reports it'll release July 26!

The site further states that Branagh will most likely be involved in some "producing capacity." Regarding who the God Of Thunder will face off with this time around, there were more rumors last month suggesting that The Enchantress and The Executioner were in contention. What do you think?

Anyhow, with Iron Man 3 slated for May 3, The Avengers releases May 4, next year!

Chris Hemsowrth Shares Thoughts On Kenneth Branagh Passing On THOR Sequel!
The actor behind Marvel's God of Thunder, Chris Hemsworth, shares his saddened thoughts THOR director Kenneth Branagh not returning to helm the sequel. Check it out!

Late last month, Marvel Studios set an official release date for the sequel to their Kenneth Branagh-directed Thor movie, along with the unfortunate news that Branagh won't be returning to helm. And chatting recently with the L.A. Times' Hero Complex, the star behind the Mighty Avenger, Chris Hemsworth shared saddened thoughts on Branagh's decision. During San Diego Comic-Con, Hemsworth says:

“I’m really disappointed, Ken built that character and everything I know about the Thor world I learned while shoulder-to-shoulder with Ken. I learned so much from him. As long as he’s happy that’s the thing,” said Hemsworth, who left San Diego to return to the New Mexico set of ”The Avengers.” “I learned so much from Ken while we built [the first film] so at least I had that time with someone like that. The start of anything creative is the most important period in a way. That’s when the most can go wrong and Ken made sure we got it right.”

The article further quotes Hemsworth stating the studio will decide fairly soon on Branagh's replacement, and that hes left a mark that will carry forward on the franchise. And with the Don Payne-written script underway, Thor 2 is supposedly scheduled for filming May next year, near the release of Chris Hemsworth's 'Thor' reprisal in The Avengers. And the sequel is slated for theaters July 26, 2013!

More Asgardians To Appear In THOR Sequel; Will It Be More Asgard-Grounded?
Based completely on an overlooked statement, & slightly speculation, it seems unlike Marvel's original THOR film, the sequel could be more grounded in Asgard. Check it out!

Heels off the news of Marvel Studios pursuing Game Of Thrones director Brian Kirk to helm their THOR sequel, from Variety and Movie Web's report, what's offhandedly mentioned may hint at a majorly new direction from the Kenneth Branagh-directed film.

The "Thor" sequel is expected to feature a large cast of Aasgardians and creatures in the Norse mythology-set world.

Thor 2 is expected to double its cast of larger than life Aasgardians and mythical Norse creatures, making it one of the largest scale Marvel adventures to date, second only to The Avengers

Though I could be looking too much into it, this may hint at the possibility of the sequel being more, if not completely, grounded in the magical Norse realm of Asgard. Or not even just Asgard, but also the other six realms, of nine from the Norse cosmology, that weren't explored in the original film; especially if there'll be more creatures.

Of course, if so, it could mean the characters Thor interacted with in the original film, while earthbound, wouldn't return; notably Natalie Portman's Jane Foster. However, at some point in the comics, Thor did take Jane to Asgard with him, where she was briefly granted immortality and the power of gods; which could evidently be a twist for the film.

While staying noted that this is just a theory, and somewhat speculation, what would you think of Thor going on an all-out Asgardian adventure, rather than Earthly; like his outing in next summer's The Avengers?
