IGN had an exclusive conversation with one of the individuals responsible for creating the Gauntlet, and they told us that it is a key item in Odin's collection, just like the Cosmic Cube is, the one we saw Red Skull searching for in footage from Thor.

So right now, you're probably asking: "What the hell is an Infinity Gauntlet?" We got you covered.

The IG is one of the most powerful artifacts in the Marvel U; a golden glove forged with six gems that ensure its wearer ultimate and universal power - as long as the glove has all six gems with it.

The gems control a variety of things, such as time and space. Whomever wields the Gauntlet and the six gems can also fulfill wishes. Its power base has ties to the aforementioned Cosmic Cube, in how the cube can manipulate reality.

Judging by the craftsmanship on display, expect the Gauntlet to be more than just a Marvel Easter Egg. Marvel's feature film panel illustrated the studio's mandate to link all of its properties, to create a cohesive universe in comics and on the big screen.

The Infinity Gauntlet is another step in that process.

Man, Marvel is going all out with these movies now it seems.

I haven't kept up with this thread in awhile, but did the movie always have the "Mighty Avenger" subtitle from the start or?

And The Destroyer! Wooooo, didn't even know Destroyer was gonna be in this. Thought it was just Red Skull and the other low level baddie I can't remember the name of now lol.

Very Detailed Trailer Description!

The trailer begins in an underground cell as Agent Coulsen (Clark Gregg) interrogates an unseen suspect. ?You made my men, some of the most highly trained professionals in the world look like a bunch of minimum wage mall cops.? As he says all this, there are flashes of soldiers being beaten, in the night rain. He continues, ?It takes some one of similar training to do that to them. Why don?t you tell me where you learned to do that?Afghanistan? Pakistan? No, you strike me more as the soldier of fortune type. Who are you?? The suspect looks up, revealing a glaring Chris Hemsworth, as our hero, Thor.

We then find ourselves in outerspace, travelling through the galaxy, until we end up in Odin?s hall, as he reprimands his son. ?I have sacrificed much to achieve peace, he says. So too must a new generation sacrifice to maintain that peace. Responsibility! Duty! Honor! These are not mere virtues to which we must aspire. They are essential to every soldier, to every king. Thor, Odin?s son, through your arrogance and stupidity, you have opened these peaceful realms and innocent lives to the horror and devastation of war. you are a vain, greedy, cruel boy.? Thor spits back, ?You are an old man and a fool!? Odin replies, ?Yes, I was a fool to think you were ready.?

Loki leans in to interject. ?Father??

?HEY!? Odin stops him. Back at Thor, he says ?I now take from you your power. In the name of my father, and his father before him, I cast you out!? Thor screams and we travel through a wormhole, landing in the desert. ?Oh no, this is Earth, isn?t it.? He says as he opens his eyes.

We are introduced to the films ladies, who are wary of him. He takes his shirt off and changes into normal clothes, and Jena Malone says, ?For a crazy homeless guy, he?s pretty cut.?

Over shots of Thor and Miss Portman, we hear him say, ?Here you call it magic?when you can explain it you call it science. Where I come from, they are one and the same.? She asks him, ?Who are you?? He tells her, ?The answers you seek shall be yours once I reclaim what?s mine.? We then see him struggling to lift his hammer, Mjolnir, out of the stone in which it?s embedded.

Back in Asgard, Odin is dying. A woman stands over him and says, ?The line of succession falls to you. Asgard is yours.? Loki, wearing his helmet, smiles wickedly.

Back on Earth, Thor says, ?For the first time in my life, I don?t know what to do.? A womans voice says, ?His fate is in his own hands now.?

After a pause, we see S.H.I.E.L.D. agents gathered in the desert, staring at a giant armored metal being: The Destroyer. ?Is that one of Stark?s?? An agent asks. ?I don?t know. That guy never tells me anything,? Coulson says. He addresses the Destroyer, ?Hello. You are in possession of unauthorized weaponry. Please identify yourself.? The destroyers face opens up to reveal nothing but fire. ?Here we go,? Coulson says. The destroyer then blasts all the cars, and as the battle begins, smash cut to the title logo.

just search Youtube it's getting uploaded every 10 minutes, if not I have it downloaded

Loki actor Thomas Hiddleston explained how he approaches the character:

Loki isn't just an anarchist. He's not just someone who's out to burn the house down. I think his villainy, or what gives him credentials as a supervillain, is that he comes from a deep sense of betrayal. That he's been betrayed by his father, betrayed by his family. That he belongs nowhere. He's caught between two worlds and he's highly alone. And someone with an inclination towards mischief anyway, someone who likes pulling practical jokes, he's a prankster. That inclination is fed into the rejection and he becomes kind of a destructive force. So it's pretty fun.

He then dropped this hint about a not exactly surprising plot twist:

I think in the film, I don't want to give too much away, but you find out that Loki has been responsible for a hell of a lot more than you first might have imagined. And that's all over the comics. You'll be following Thor through one adventure and you think there's one particular bad guy and then Stan Lee and Jack Kirby will pull Loki out from behind the curtain and you see him pulling the strings and you go, "Oh my God, it was Loki all along." Yeah, he is a shape-shifter, someone that is not to be trusted.

In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Thor director Kenneth Branagh reveals that Anthony Hopkins character, Odin, "runs the universe." This seems to be a deviation from the mythology set up in the comics, but can lead to solid continuity amongst the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

As we've seen (or heard) in the recent clips of both Captain America and Thor footage shown at Comic Con, several key cosmic artifacts are being introduced into the film-verse: The Casket of Ancient Winters, the Cosmic Cube (or "Tesseract") and the Infinity Gauntlet and Sword.

It appears that Odin collects these items (along with many more that have yet to be revealed) and stores them in different areas of the universe for safekeeping. The role each play in their respective films, as well as the ensemble film The Avengers, has yet to be discerned.

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2, urges IT admins to prepare for release

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2, urges IT admins to prepare for release by Usama Jawad Windows 11 typically follows an annual update cycle, but Microsoft recently broke that tradition a bit by releasing a "26H1" version in the first half of this year as a "scoped" build for select new silicon PCs only. This version was not available for customers using 24H2 and 25H2 builds, as Microsoft is busy preparing version 26H2 for them, confirmed officially for the first time. In a Windows IT Pro blog, Microsoft has urged IT admins to prepare for the upcoming release of Windows 11 version 26H2. The company has confirmed that this will be a small enablement package (eKB) that will simply light up certain disabled features that are already present in the operating system's code base. This means that the "refined" Windows update and deployment experience will be simpler and quicker, with minimal disruptions, as the feature update will simply toggle a few flags rather than performing a complete replacement. Microsoft has explained that this is all possible because the standard Windows 11 releases share the same servicing branch and hence, the same source code. However, this also means that Windows 11 26H1 users won't be able to upgrade to 26H2 as that is a different branch, but this is something we have known for a while now. Similar to previous annual feature updates, Windows 11 26H2 will offer the following support cycles: 24 months of support for Home, Pro, Pro EDU, and Pro for Workstations editions 36 months of support for Enterprise, Education, IoT Enterprise, and Enterprise Multi-session editions Microsoft has not confirmed a concrete release date for Windows 11 26H2, but noted that it is "coming soon". If we go by the ongoing release cadence, we can expect it to begin rolling out in early October 2026. As such, IT admins have been encouraged to begin validating Windows Insider releases in the Experimental Channel, plan rollout rings, and strategize the utilization of their existing deployment tools.
    • Windows 11 gets new audio improvements in the latest builds

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Windows 11 gets new audio improvements in the latest builds by Taras Buria Today's Experimental builds (26H1 and Future Platforms, formerly Canary) pack several audio-related improvements. If your device is enrolled in the Experimental Channel (26H1), you can download build 28120.2315, while those in the Future Platforms version have build 29613.1000 to try. Here is what is new in build 29613.1000: [Audio] Following up on our previous improvements, we’re making some more adjustments to Settings > System > Sounds based on your feedback. Namely, we’ve updated the “All sound devices” page so: You now have the ability to change default devices from this page. Each of the devices displayed on this page now has a little volume meter next to it to show if there is audio actively playing. We’ve adjusted the page design slightly so now you can filter whether you’re viewing input or output devices. We’ve added toggles so you can choose if you want to hide or show disabled, disconnected, and unplugged devices on this page. We’ve also updated the input and output audio properties page for devices in Settings to now include jack information for those that need it. And here is the changelog for build 28120.2315: This update includes a small number of minor bug fixes and improvements. [Accessibility] This update improves caption style responsiveness by redrawing captions immediately for caption style changes. If no current caption is visible, a sample caption string is displayed. [Audio] This update improves the reliability of the inbox HD Audio driver. You can find the official release notes for build 28120.2315 here and for build 29613.1000 here.

      I agree with what I think you are saying, just not in the way you are saying it. Like any tool, the amount it represents your work is perorational to the effort you put into it. It is similar to why 2nd grade math students learning to add and subtract are not allowed to use calculators, but a high-school calculous student is. For the 2nd grader, that tool would completely replace the work they are doing, for the calculous student the same tool allows them to work far more effectively while in no way replacing their effort or knowable. If you spend 30 seconds writing a prompt, then the image that comes out is no more "yours" than if you found the same image with a Google Image search. However, many of these generative tools also support highly iterative processes that allow back and forth, and merging generated images with photos or human created images. I am sure you would agree that a human spending hours of time working on a project, even if AI was involved in the process, still reflects that human's work.

    • We now know when and how the Universe may truly end

      By sphbecker · Posted

      I've always preferred this possibility. There is something that feels good about the idea that all matter in the universe will eventually come back together and maybe even result in another big bang. The idea that the universe would fizzle out over the eons and forever drift apart is a little depressing. I realize it is not logical to let a basic human desire for life to have a grand everlasting meaning change the way I feel about a scientific theory, but I am human, so that is how I feel :-).
