check out this Thor Trailer embedded in this news story from Comic Hero News. This movie looks so awesome, and I feel bad for being a Core DC guy and being more excited for this than GL.

Is this trailer really a new one? Thought I'd seen this footage already. Maybe it just shares footage in common with the last one I saw.
My personal fanboy preferences aside, I actually had a similar mix of optimism and concern watching this as I did the GL trailer. Looks like it's aiming to take itself seriously, but the CGI offers nothing new in quality and the costumes, when not in ideal lighting, look kinda rubbery. (Not "Batman and Robin" bad, but enough to make me cautious.)
I'm also hoping that Thor doesn't spend most of the movie trying to get his full powers back. I'm seriously not a fan of comic book stories about the heroes losing their powers and having to get along without them for awhile. Why do they think I freakin' read comics to begin with??
But an article I read online said that about half of the movie is in locations other than earth, so even if we have to deal with a "glass half empty" Thor, at least we'll get some Asgard and Frost Giants!
