Trivia

According to VFX supervisor Jake Morrison, the Harrows, the spaceships used by the Dark Elves, are powered by black holes: "A black hole pulls in all directions. You stick a box around it - but if you poke a hole in one side of the box it would pull in that direction. So effectively if you strap a craft around that you've got a propulsion drive which is kind of an impulsion drive."

In late 2011, Patty Jenkins was officially announced as director for this film. In December 2011, she backed out of the project due to "creative differences". Natalie Portman was publicly upset that talks between Marvel and Patty Jenkins broke down, some sources even claim she threatened not to take part in the film with another director but couldn't get out of her contract.

Christopher Eccleston describes Malekith as a tragic villain: "What I thought about a great deal was revenge. One quote is: 'When you seek revenge, be sure to dig two graves.' I did a film called Revengers Tragedy (2002) where I played a guy called Vindici-from the word 'vindictive'-and he is the distillation of revenge. So, in a way, that was what I had to think of: how revenge can make you absolutely monomaniacal-though you're still trying to make it recognizably motive-led. It's just the personification of movie evil."

Goofs

When Darcy is driving the Volvo and the Intern shouts turn right, you can clearly see the car exiting a street with a blue 'one way' sign. Jane has just driven the wrong direction down a one way street.

When the aether enters Jane, she is shown in the Asgardian dress that she returns from Asgard in, and when she reappears in the warehouse she is back in the outfit she was wearing on her date.

In the first shot of Frigga on the floor when Odin sees her body, her left arm is flung out wider. When Odin cradles her, the arm has moved closer to her shoulder; her right arm and body are also moving as if she's breathing.

Who is the man in the end credits they call the Collector?

A

In the Marvel Universe, the Collector is one of the Elders of the Universe, a group of powerful beings who are among the oldest mortals in that universe. They are primarily defined by their obsessions, such as the Grandmaster who focuses on games of skill and chance while the Champion searches the universe for challenging beings to fight hand to hand. In the Collector's case, he is obsessed with collecting various objects and beings, often without regard for the proper ownership or liberties involved.
