I disagree completely with the notion of wanting Brad Pitt to play the norse god of thunder. Although the marvel comic version of Thor,may do justice to that character selection,the real god Thor,should be portrayed by someone with better physical stature like Gerard Butler(300)! Now if Mr.Pitt is planning on doing steroids,in order to capture the true size of the thunder god,then I will have no complaints,but I very much doubt that will occur.
Gerard Butler would be perfect as the thunder god for 2 reasons:
1.He is of Scottish descent. Most scottsman are genetically part scandanavian,because of the settling of the viking tribes,in northern scottland,whom decided to stop pillaging,and start families. It is his birth rite.
2. Screen charisma: As we witnessed in 300,Mr.Butler is not only a demanding physical specimen like Thor,but he knows how to demand peoples attention on the big screen. I believe that the rage and determination he portrayed as a spartan king,could easily be turned into the rage and determination of the thunder god.
