It is most likely known throughout the comic book movie world that Marvel Studios epic "Thor" is nearing completion and heading for Hollywood in 2011 along side the most anticipated rival comic book film, DC Comics' "Green Lantern." There has not been any on-set photos roaming around the internet for "Thor," which is causing a stir among loyal fans who want to see their hero come to reality.
An insider for the Santa Fe New Mexican website addresses why "Thor" is being concealed from the public. They even explain Thor's experience with his family at the location.
From Santa Fe New Mexican:
"Chris Hemsworth, star of Thor (now being filmed in Galisteo), took to the hills to ride with his family a week ago Saturday at The Broken Saddle Riding Company in Cerrillos. Hemsworth's parents were visiting from Australia and his brother, Liam, who plays opposite Miley Cyrus in The Last Song and dates her off screen, were part of the group led by wranglers Stephanie Abrams and John Wayne Haynes. After the ride, they were entertained by local cowboy singer Jasper McCoy."
I am surprised Thor did not sing a mighty song from the Halls of Asgard to the cowboy and drink a large jug of beer.
Santa Fe New Mexican:
"Speaking of Thor, the big-budget nature of the film is obvious by the number of yellow signs directing crews all over town. From a town built near Galisteo, to a site behind the Franklin Miles Park, shooting has been fast and furious for the Kenneth Branagh-directed blockbuster. One site that might be familiar to locals is a bar interior shot recently at the favorite Santa Fe nightspot, Cheeks — a scene that took 13.5 hours to capture Branagh's satisfaction. According to an insider, "despite the fact that they had to do a million takes, everyone seemed pretty non-irritable. Very focused, perfectionistic, stressed but not flipping out."
As Santa Fe New Mexican noted, they are pretty busy. The 13.5 hours long scene indicates that Branagh wants perfect acting with perfect precision. The fact that the cast seems chill about it, should be a good hint that this film is going to satisfy both the critics and the fans.
