It’s official: The hammer of Thor and the shield of Captain America will fly straight at moviegoers in 3-D. On Saturday, July 24th, Marvel Studios will showcase the final studio presentation at Comic-Con’s biggest room, Hall H, and “Thor” director Kenneth Branagh will use that climactic slot not just to introduce some of his cast (a cast that includes Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman and Anthony Hopkins) but also to persuade skeptical fans that 3-D will add new dimensions to the 2011 blockbuster, and not just in the obvious way.
“Thor” will be the first Marvel film in 3-D. The second will be “Captain America: The First Avenger” due July 22, 2011.
Marvel is planning on dropping additional bombshell announcements in San Diego about “The Avengers,” the 2012 film that, reportedly, will be directed by Joss Whedon. The creative force behind “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” will get a long, loud cheer if he is indeed introduced during the panel.
Sir Anthony looks quite convincing. He seems to have some of the presence one would expect of the the “All Father.”
Also I understand that the movie will be available in 3 D.
I can hardly wait to see the Thor movie. I’m a Marvel fan from way back and also a long time Marvel fan fiction writer:

I have just completed a new novella “Soldier of the Brell” which I will make available as an e-book download from the Xlibris site. I will also make it available on the IPAD, Amazon’s Kindle, the Sony Reader and other E-readers.
