I'll concur with Tatum being a good actor (not sure why he was mentioned other than to deflect). I just watched Foxcatcher again 
Probably came down to why settle for Liam when we can get this guy who is looks better and has a better build to be Thor.
So yeah nothing I've said has changed, at least not my opinion of the Hemsworth bros. Good thing Liam has that even older brother around to not make him look that bad. He's like a troll in comparison.
Some ppl said the same thing for WW and I find Gadot pretty unattractive given the options for WW.
Sex appeal is not the biggest factor. You sound like an a-hole saying that.
You're so focused on comic book depictions it makes me wonder how many different artist styles you've seen depict these characters. You keep talking about Carol Danvers like she's built like She-Hulk and she is not. You post some art and it's pretty clear you're seeing something different or your perspective is radically twisted when it comes to adapting the look to film.
This whole pick an unknown actor aint gonna fly either. Hemsworth got tapped for the role because these were the early MCU movies when they weren't sure it'd be a success and quite frankly it's not like the Thor movies are great, some would say they're barely good. You don't go looking for A-list Brad Pitt when you're not sure the first movie will even make enough money to see a profit. You can't keep citing almost 10 year old examples and ignore the casting practices of the MCU TODAY.
You keep talking about fit the build but there really isn't any build to fit that's so strict. It's not some rigid form that actors work to get in to. I'd say you're wrong about Cobie/Maria and simply point to Rhodey/War Machine by both Cheadle and Howard, neither look like the brother but Cheadle makes it work. Same goes for Renner looking like Hawkeye. There are better choices.
Moot point though cuz if Blunt ends up being Carol, Carol gonna end up looking more like her in the comics anyway.
So Liam Hemsworth is such a bad actor that his brother who wasn't even originally considered for their short list just got the nod from a well regarded director/producer/writer that they forgot about Liam.

Just cuz you're not the only one sharing that thought doesn't mean you're not sexist.I mentioned in here months ago, when we originally were talking about Blunt being Danvers , about sex appeal being the biggest factor for CM's casting and being the main reason I didn't want Blunt in the role. I was labeled as sexist but I knew I wasn't the only one sharing this thought. Nothing against Blunt again, she's an amazing actress but the blond buxom look of Carol could be better suited for another actress. One who married Ryan Reynolds.........and isn't already cast black widow
Can we take a step back and talk about Ryan Reynolds rap sheet though. How do you marry Scarlett and Blake. Nuts

You're view on this is all ****** up to me. Bringing up kids and other countries and it's a family movie is irrelevant. They're not good points at all.
