I'm with all you guys in saying that the Thor trailer looks WAY better than I expected it would. Holy crap. I'm actually psyched for that now. And Chris makes a GREAT Thor!

Man, that's nothing BUT a tease.

Cool logo, though.

Major spoiler for Captain America: The First Avenger and The Avengers

This is listed as a spoiler on the IMDB page for Thor.  And is attributed to something Kenneth Brannaugh said

Spoiler

The Cosmic Cube is on Captain America: The First Avenger and The Infinity Gauntlet shows up in at least The Avengers and reportedly shows up in Thor as well.  This pretty much suggests that Thanos could be the villain for The Avengers.  OR could be something to suggest Thanos showing up for a future film.

I've seen the prototype prop for The Infinity Gauntlet.  The test version that the company who made it sent to Marvel.  It looks SWEET!  I wasn't allowed to get pictures.... actually, I didn't even think about it.

cool, was not aware of the SDCC one.  The one I saw was about a year ago.  That's actually an improvement over the the one I saw.

If you were looking forward to seeing your hawkeye with an abundance of purple (and blue) while wearing that pointy, wolverine-esque mask, then you better get your complaints out now:

Actor Jeremy Renner, who will play iconic Avenger archer Clint Barton, aka Hawkeye, may have given us a little glimpse at what his character will look like (or rather, what he will NOT look like) in the heavily-anticipated 2012 mega movie. Sitting down to interview with MTV, Renner revealed that his costume will reflect a more realistic tone in the film. As a result, his classic purple jumpsuit and pointy-eared mask which so define him in the comics, will not be a fashion choice here. Additionally, the actor hints that his character, as in the comics from time-to-time, may find himself in a little bit of romance with fellow Avenger Black Widow. If Renner's contract specified plenty of lip-locking scenes with Scarlett Johansson, then my hat's off him. Moreover, I'd get used to telling director Joss Whedon "maybe we better do another take" repeatedly to the point of awkwardness. According to Renner:

"I think it's going to be a little more reality-based," said Renner. "You can kind of tell with Scarlett [Johansson]'s character [in 'Iron Man 2'], it's going to be more of a uniform . . . and not a big purple, comics sort of thing. That's why I think it's more palatable to audiences — there's almost a sense of reality to these superheroes," he explained. "That's what makes it interesting to me, anyway."

Thank goodness.

Lol

Someone should tell Mr. Renner that Johansson wore something very similar(if not a complete replication) of what her character wears in the source material.

But It's what it's what I expected.  But if a mask is good for Captain America, why not him?

I'm wondering it's more the color and the fact that it is perceived as a jumpsuit.  As for the design, I kinda get what he means about the "pointy ears". 

I'll wait till I see the costume.

[Panther_Gunn]

Personally, I think that if you're an actor signing up to play a *masked* super hero, you shouldn't really be whining about "face time".  You knew what you were in for, so suck it up & deal with it.

[BentonGrey]

Bah.

[Podmark]

I was pretty sure they wouldn't go for a classic Hawkeye design. I'll guess they'll go original Ultimates for their inspiration.
I was honestly curious if they could pull of a decent classic Hawkeye costume. It's one of the costumes in comics that I could see looking really ridiculous on a real life person.

[Tomato]

Eh. I'm soso on this... like, I think there needs to be a balance between classic look and functionality, and there are ways to do that with hawkeye that aren't rediculous.

Personally I'd rather see something akin to what's already been done with the marvel looks (overall classic looks with a twist to make them more modern) and not a retarded rehash of the ultimates design.

[daglob]

They could always do the outfit with the headband...

They could always do the outfit with the headband...

Uh, no. Just... no.



I'll wait and see exactly what they DO do before complaining, in hopes that they at least find a way to suggest his classic look. After it becomes clear that they won't do that, then I'll complain. 

[Courtnall6]

Cowards.

But by then Benton & I will be *far* ahead of you in the "complaining" queue.  No cuts!

Cowards.

Who, the wardrobe department or the non-complainers?   

[Alaric]

Y'know, I've been thinking some more about this, and I've come to several conclusions;

1) Much as I'd like to see something resembling Hawkeye's classic look, it's much more important to me that hey get his personality right. Clint's got to be the guy who can have some profound, sensitive insight one minute and completely put his foot in his mouth the next, the unpredictable loose cannon who's also, despite himself, the ultimate team player, the guy with the guts to throw himself into battle against cosmically=powerful enemies armed only with a bow and arrow, simultaneously overconfident and deeply insecure, who pushes himself so hard to make up for his lack of powers that he actually performs better when teamed with or fighting against more powerful opponents than he does otherwise, and yet who's not even a little intimidated by thunder gods or androids...

2) They certainly wouldn't have to precisely copy any of Hawkeye's costumes- he's changed his costume many times, anyway- but I would like to see something that makes him visually identifiable as Hawkeye- the two most important traits would be; a fair amount of purple in his outfit, and some sort of "pointy-ness" on his head (could just be a pointed mask, shaped like a stylized arrowhead, or something...).

3) It would be pretty easy to explain his costume in a more "realistic" world- he's a performer by background. His costume and code name could have been part of his act. Maybe someone was impressed enough by his carnival act to set him up as a performer in Las Vegas or something, where a flashy, superhero-ish costume might have replaced whatever outfit he wore before, and when the Avengers battle some enemies where he's performing, he jumps in and helps them, then asks to join the group- while impressed, they turn him down, but he starts following them around and eventually wins acceptance as a member...

Or maybe they'll go the Ultimates route and make him part of S.H.E.I.L.D...

Alright you're banned from reality now

I want to say that I read somewhere that they are doing something like that. Either I read that or I was just thinking they might do that.
If so it could be that Clint simply isn't a superhero in the first movie and he's in the military or SHIELD first and is wearing something along the lines of Black Widow, with the possibility of the superhero costume appearing later on in the series.

[crimsonquill]

hey'll go the Ultimates route and make him part of S.H.E.I.L.D...

I'm going with the thought that Hawkeye will already be a member of S.H.E.I.L.D. when we run across him in Avengers and probably will be wearing some kind of military/special forces combat gear with some purple highlights including maybe shades with a purple hue to them. I think he will be played off as a excellent marksman and probably first appear with a sniper rifle backing up Black Widow on a mission when they first introduce them to the storyline. Now I'm going to take a shot that at some point during the storyline Hawkeye is stuck with only using a bow and starts shooting arrows with uncanny skill and when Fury reveals the Avengers to the public as a team that Hawkeye has a more customized uniform/costume and the hi-tech compound bow and quiver of tech arrows we know and love.

And as far as the personality goes.. It's very easy to see watching The Hurt Locker that Jeremy Renner has the reckless personality and attitude that is pure Hawkeye but also that leadership ability that will come into play when they expand on his character in any spin-off film and Avengers sequels to come.

I agree that that's what they'll probably do, I was simply giving a possible "realistic" explanation for the costume- something along the lines of what I'd like to see in the movie, not what I expect to see. Personally, I think the "S.H.I.E.L.D. agent" origin for Hawkeye is kind of boring...

[JeyNyce]

Here's a real long shot.......Why not make Hawkeye's costume like his son in the Next Avengers DVD.

[Courtnall6]

Who, the wardrobe department or the non-complainers?

Everyone involved with this moronic decision. Studio heads, producers, director, actor, wardrobe, etc.

Promise?

Realistic super-heroes... that's funny.

[BWPS]

Hawkeye's costume is one that would actually almost work in a movie. The headgear is pretty goofy and the medieval looking pieces like the boots and loin cloth would have to be different. But the colors just need to be muted (like navy blue and really dark purple) to make it better. Oh and of course the bow and arrows need to be replaced with a sniper rifle but that goes without saying.
