Woot! Verily I say thee Yay!
I have been hoping for a good Thor movie for a very, VERY long time.......if this guy goes with the whole Asgard element, which, given his previous project seems possible, this could rock.
Rumor is that Marvel wants to cast Triple-H.
The director...doesn't.
Take it for whats its worth.
