Just yesterday, some new, action-packed photos from the set of Alan Taylor's 'Thor: The Dark World.' Up to then, they were the best thing we'd seen from the set. But today, a behind the scenes video has hit the web that essentially brings those photos to life, complete with explosions! Check out the video below, and please…
