Thor and Loki Forge Uneasy Alliance in Marvel's 'Thor: The Dark World' Trailer

Thor (Chris Hemsworth) team up with Loki (Tom Hiddleston) to take on a greater universal evil.

With exactly three months remaining until Marvel fully unveils its second chapter of Phase Two, the studio in conjunction with YouTube's Geek Week released the second trailer for Thor: The Dark World online this Wednesday.

The latest trailer for Thor: The Dark World bears too much resemblance to the initial trailer attached to Marvel's own Iron Man 3 a few months back, leaving many comic book fans still left in the dark about many of the film's details. But honestly, by no means is it a cheap move by Disney and Marvel to keep plenty of their cards close to the chest. When November 8th rolls around, the more surprises Marvel dishes out the better as long as there's nothing to polarize audiences like one certain turn of events in Iron Man 3.

Stewart, Theron, Reign Supreme in Medieval 'Snow White' Tale

No longer the damsel in distress, Snow White becomes a warrior princess to take back what is hers.

If you’re feeling fairy tale déjà vu all of the sudden, you’re not alone. Less than three months ago, director Tarsem Singh traded his stylistic vision of mythological gods and titans for a more family friendly take on the classic Snow White tale in Mirror Mirror. And that was all fine and great for its targeting its youthful demographic, but Rupert Sanders too has his own Snow White tale to tell, one treading the same mature waters as Pan’s Labyrinth and The Lord of the Rings trilogy. 

Snow White and the Huntsman conveys the most consistent plot points found in any interpretation:  a princess who’s fairest in the land, a vain usurper queen challenged by the beauty of said princess and a supporting cast of seven dwarves, a conflicted huntsman and the iconic magic mirror (or in Huntsman, a faceless mirror man).  Where Huntsman zigs where other interpretations have zagged shines in its encompassing gritty and medieval vibe, in which Snow White assumes the mantle of the kingdom’s savior, a warrior princess leading her army into battle against a psychotic seductress, who has stolen everything that is rightfully hers.
