Also, I would but forward that it would be hard for many people to relate to Tony Stark in the Ironman films but they still did really well

Tony Stark is a human man.

Thor is a god or a demi god or some shit.

Captain America is also an easier sell because he's a human.

Humans are automatically more relatable than whatever retarded mythology Thor comes out of.

The world was sold on 5 Superman movies, so I think Thor could be achievable.

I really don't know enough about the character, but I hope they don't make him a hippie like in the Ultimate universe.

Superman was also the ultimate American icon. His motto was Truth, Justice, and the American Way, after all. Thor, on the other hand, is Norse. As far as most modern audiences know, he stands for Mead, Pillage, and Horns.

Thor was merged with the human Donald Blake which tied him down to humanity (from what little I know about that character). Don't believe they're doing that for the movie though.

Quote:
Thor's father Odin decides his son needs to be taught humility and consequently places Thor (without memories of godhood) into the body and memories of an existing, partially disabled human: medical student Donald Blake. After becoming a doctor and on holiday in Norway, Blake witnesses the arrival of an alien scouting party. Blake flees into a cave and, after discovering Thor's disguised hammer Mjolnir and striking it against a rock, transforms into the Thunder God.
And fan edited costume:
