Twitter is a wonderful tool that I am getting used to. It gives me the snippets of information I want from friends and celebs that I want to follow in 140 characters or less! Its like reading headlines.
Well some news on the Marvel front has come out first via Twitter, starting with news from Jon Favreau that Robert Downey Jr’s Sherlock Holmes might be the place to be to see the first Iron Man 2 Trailer.
And while they are at that, the internal buzz about Thor is reaching a fever pitch with many people involved tweeting their excitement:
The big Thor discussion was kicked off today by Marvel’s editor-in-chief Joe Quesada – @JoeQuesada:
“I could listen to Branagh talk about Thor all day long. Cast is in place, sets are being built and screenplay is brilliant. Marveldom rules!”
Then comic book author Brian Michael Bendis – @BRIANMBENDIS – replied with the following as well:
“Broadcasting live from marvel west. Thor movie meeting with Ken branagh was over the top amazing. Visited the sets! I was in Odin’s chamber!”
“U should get in line for the Thor movie today. Just saying.”
While I expect there to be a certain amount of pumping from executives and studios involved, this lines up with the rest of the news we are hearing. Solid cast, confident filming schedule and nothing but good news that almost sounds like the running start Iron Man had when we couldn’t find fault in that either.
I can’t wait to see how this all comes about.
