no odin did the tree of life thing where the runes came from

No, they are both Norse Gods. Odin (also known as Wodin) coming in at the top.

Nope. http://www.notasdecine.es/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/thor.jpg http://www.savagecoffeehut.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/odin.jpg

I believe Odin was the god of lightning, and Thor the god of thunder.

I'm glad I came on here, I didn't remember until I read the other answers. I guess Odin is the Big Kahuna and Thor is God of Thunder.

Mighty Thor, the God of War, sat on his handsome filly. "I'm Thor!" he cried, the horse replied, "You forgot the thaddle, thilly." ps.. no

No, Odin is the king of the Æsir and the god of death. Thor is the oldest son of Odin, and the god of thunder

Thor is one of Odin's sons. 1) "Brian Blessed Is THOR’s Odin? According to new website Bleeding Cool (note: if you start bleeding cool, get to a hospital immediately), Kenneth Branagh has tapped actor Brian Blessed to play Odin in “Thor”. Branagh, like the previously-announced Thom Hiddleston, has not only worked with Branagh in the past, but in his productions of Shakespeare, specifically “Hamlet” and “As You Like It”. As I’ve said before, I’m loving the casting of actors who know their Shakespeare for this film. For those who don’t know their Norse mythology (and shame on your for sleeping through Vikings 101), Odin is Thor’s (Chris Hemsworth) pop-pop. He’s also pop-pop to Thor’s villainous half-brother Loki (Hiddleston). I’m sure Thor and Loki will refer to Odin throughout the film as “pop-pop”. And if you’re calling it “pop-pop”, you’re clearly not ready to have a war of the gods amongst mortals."

"Only three gods, Thor, Baldur, and Váli/Bous, are explicitly identified as sons of Odin in the Eddic poems, in the skaldic poems, in Saxo Grammaticus' Gesta Danorum, and in the Gylfaginning section of Snorri Sturluson's Edda. But silence on the matter does not indicate that other gods whose parentage is not mentioned in these works might not also be sons of Odin. Thor's mother is Jörd 'Earth' according to all skaldic poems, eddic poems, and Snorri Sturluson's Edda."
