Lionsgate Presents ‘Thor: Tales of Asgard’
And you thought you would just be happy with one Thor movie this year, huh? Well do I have news for you. Lionsgate is proud to announce the Blu-ray Combo Pack, DVD, Digital Download and On Demand release of Thor: Tales of Asgard available on May 17th. You wanna know more about it now, don’t you? I know I do. So without further ado check out the below press release hot off the press from one of my favorite studios, Lionsgate.
He’s waged battles in Ultimate Avengers, Ultimate Avengers 2, Next Avengers and Hulk Vs., and now one of the most beloved characters in the Marvel Universe is ready to strike out on his own this May. See the young “God of Thunder” as Marvel Animation and Lionsgate Home Entertainment team up to release Thor: Tales of Asgard! Hitting Blu-ray Combo Pack, DVD, Digital Download and On Demand on May 17th, the newest Marvel Animated Feature is the perfect companion to the May 6th release of the live-action theatrical film Thor. The title builds on the strength of more than 40 years and 10 million copies of Thor comics, and the timelessness of The Mighty Thor to create a truly epic adventure that both lifelong fans and those new to the story will love. The Blu-ray Combo Pack and DVD are packed with special features such as audio commentaries with the film creators, a “making-of” featurette plus a bonus TV episode of “The Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes”
Before he ever lifted his mighty hammer, there was the sword. Fantastic journeys beckon from the mysterious nine realms. Places of dark mists and fiery voids. Of winged creatures and giants in the ice. And the most alluring quest of all – the search for the legendary Lost Sword of Surtur. Hungry for adventure, Thor secretly embarks on the journey of a lifetime, joined by his loyal brother Loki, whose budding sorcery equips him with just enough magic to conjure up trouble, along with the Warriors Three – a band of boastful travelers reluctant to set sail on any adventure that might actually be dangerous. But what starts out as a harmless treasure hunt quickly turns deadly, and Thor must now prove himself worthy of the destiny he covets by saving Asgard itself.
I’ll say this: I was big on being pumped for the first Hulk movie until it came out (for the record, I still kinda like that movie, at least for Ang Lee’s direction), and the same with Thor, until I’m proven wrong, I will continue to support all involving the character and his movies.
I hope this is good. So far, I’ve like the DC titles better than the Marvel ones.
Definetely DC, although Hulk Vs. was pretty solid.
I missed that one. I’ve just seen both of the Avengers movies.
Aaron said: Definetely DC, although Hulk Vs. was pretty solid.
I couldn’t agree with that more.
