As mentioned I didn’t watch Spiderman Homecoming yet because at the time of recording it wasn’t yet on a streaming service I have! But it’s currently up on Patreon! patreon.com/emmereacts

[@jacksonconley5117]

This movie had me laughing every minute.😂🤣

[@thegamingkig1258]

Ahh i thought i was blind and just looked over jt

[@jacksonconley5117]

Seeing this movie makes me hyped for Infinity War.

[@davidmariscal8777]

It's on Disney plus now.

[@how2bwild738]

fyi Valkyrie is gay so don’t let the thor/valk ship get ur hopes up lmao

[@jeffthompson9622]

In the stage play Matt Damon played Loki, Luke Hemsworth played Thor, and Sam Neill played fake Odin.

[@whattha_huh]

27:11 Point Break is a movie reference Tony Stark used right after fighting Thor in Avengers. He said "No hard feelings, Point Break, you got a mean swing" In the movie Point Break, some guy has long hair like Thor.

[@victorsixtythree]

Some fun cameos! Did you recognize...Hela was played by Cate Blanchett (Galadriel)...The Grandmaster was Jeff Goldblum...the Asgardian actors playing Odin, Thor and Loki were Sam Neil, Luke Hemsworth and Matt Damon.

[@CrazeeAdam]

And Tessa Thomson of course as Valkyrie :)

[@ricardoortiz4870]

Did you also know that Betty Ross is the Red Skull’s daughter in LOTR?

[@MattPerk7]

I really wish I could have run into the movie not knowing that the Hulk was going to be in it. I was really frustrated that that was spoiled in the trailers. I am very happy for you that you got to have the genuine surprise when he showed up.

[@RobFMDetroit]

Same. And I feel the same about Winter Soldier. When it came out, EVERYONE knew it was Bucky ahead of the movie's release. It's fun to see reactors who have no idea going into it.

[@RitoRvolto]

Made sense for marketing purposes. The first two Thor movies were meh so it was inevitable.

[@monsterlair]

On the other hand, that first Thor: Ragnarök teaser was a work of art, absolute fire and marketing genius. It's still one of the best Marvel trailers ever made.

[@alexo_pog]

i never watch trailers, if you know you plan to watch a movie, dont watch trailers, they are basically spoilers to tease those who aren't sure i personally never click them if im interested in a movie and if i see one randomly i close my fuckin eyes and cover my ears lol, they are just not necessary whatsoever

[@how2bwild738]

My gf at the time had no idea whatsoever and when he burst out in the arena she almost shit herself

[@lazerx1828]

To correct some of the comments: POINT BREAK is an old (1991) movie about (believe it or not) surfing bank robbers. The leader is played by Patrick Swayze who had long blonde hair. Tony Stark called Thor "Point Break" because he resembled the character from the movie.

[@phj223]

Yes! YES! Nobody ever explains that, I don't even do it myself cause I figure it would just be lost on the younglings who didn't watch Point Break and will never watch Point Break, but oh my god, I'm so happy I found this comment.

[@lazerx1828]

​@@phj223 (bowing) Thank you, I figured somebody needed to put it out there! We're probably the only two people who know (and all the other old people!)

[@camryn7023]

honestly thank you for this I LOVE the mcu and a lot reactions i’ve seen laugh at that joke but never explain it so i thought it was a joke i just would never get lol.

[@PaulGuy]

I will not stand for this Johnny Utah erasure.

[@phj223]

The movie Point Break is actually being picked up by some reaction channels lately, and these trends seem to spread, so maybe soon all the youngsters will appreciate this glorious joke 😅

[@Melivilth]

One of my favorite things in this movie are the rock paper scissors jokes. Korg's revolution failed because he didn't print enough paper pamphlets and Meek 'died' because Korg stepped on him.

[@CraftsWithCrafts]

OMFG why didn't I pick up on that second part...lack of paper beat rock, and rock crushed, literally, scissors...LOL

[@BrokenKeybored0112]

Korg is voiced by the director, Taika Waititi. He also played another short role in this movie, that is the guy with the white face paint, who seemed like the leader of the group that first tried to captured Thor just as he arrived of Sakaar.

[@ActionHank_]

Awesome rock, scissors, paper joke when you meet Korg and Miek. Korg was defeated because he didn't print out enough paper pamphlets

[@ghstdnsr]

If you remember Point Break is what Tony called Thor in the first Avengers movie when he said " You've got a mean swing there point break"

[@jmominis]

And for those that might not get the reference, its bc at the time, Thor looked like Patrick Swayze did in the movie ‘Point Break’.

[@ghstdnsr]

@@jmominis Yes there are so many lines and other things that connect and span the movies. Some I see the most are the words On your left that span even to End Game and Loki looking at the Tesseract in this movie.

[@PaulGuy]

Hulk's enthusiasm for fighting a 500 foot tall monster/god is so delightful.

[@Belhade]

I mean, that's what they keep him around for, right?

[@jeffroskywalker]

The Grandmaster is one of the ageless Elders of the Universe and has mastered most civilizations' games of skill and chance. He is often depicted as the Collectors brother, who you met in Thor end credits and GOTG

[@stormempire51]

Ragnarok in the nordic mythology "just" means the end of the world, so the definition in this movie of asgards destruction is pretty good

[@NZBigfoot]

Its also a cycle if i remember, in that the world and gods are destroyed but reborn again latter?

[@Logan_Baron]

The Valkyrie that they showed in the flashback dying in front of our main Valkyrie, was (as told behind the scenes) her wife. So when she said she lost everything.

[@bobbelleci9995]

Emme, here's an interesting cast note; The actor Karl Urban who plays Skurge "The Executioner":has been in some very interesting roles over the years. He played Doctor McCoy in the Star Trek trilogy. He was the warrior Éomer in the Lord of the rings trilogy. And of course, he appears here as Skurge The Executioner. But, he has had many other prominent roles over the years. We think his eyes give him away no matter the costume.

[@RetroGamingSweden]

DOOM was great. But I LOVED him in Dredd 2012

[@kanishkjha4379]

i think we can agree his role as Billy Butcher in The Boys was exceptional too

[@mareiramv]

37:18 I don't think I've seen you laugh this hard at anything you watched on camera, haha. Favorite Emme moment, right there. Love your reactions, keep up the good work! Love you

[@Ghost8386]

Since 1986 I have been a fan of Thor and The Incredible Hulk. Thor: Ragnarok is a fantastic film that incorporates the influence of Big Trouble in Little China, Jack Kirby, 48 Hours Planes, Trains, and Automobiles, as well as Flash Gordon. Thor is strapped on a chair, learning about the Grandmaster’s planet of Sakaar, the melody of “Pure Imagination” from 1971’s Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory plays while Thor is all creeped out. A few of the comics that inspired Thor: Ragnarok are Angela, Queen of Hel, Thor Disassembled, Thor Volume 1, #362, Thor Volume 1, #382, Thor: God of Thunder, Planet Hulk, Marvel Super Heroes: Contest of Champions, Journey into Mystery Volume 1, #112, and Thor Volume 1, #352. I have been a Taika Waititi fan since 2014, and I have enjoyed his films since then.

[@bigfrankfraser1391]

i love that loki smirks when the massive thunderbolt strikes, its the "about bloody time you did that" smirk

[@Heroo01]

I can't WAIT to see you react to the end of this phase and a lot of the shows in Phase 4. Loved this one

[@-NOCAP-]

Korg is hilarious and you either talked over or edited out all of his punchlines. I was really looking forward to seeing your reaction to them.

[@maxvickrey4357]

So i believe the blonde Valkyrie that sacrifice herself was actually her girlfriend

[@Logan_Baron]

Wife, but close enough.

[@aperez728]

I'm glad I've found this channel. I've been binge watching your marvel reactions 😂I haven't seen Phase 1-3 movies in awhile. It's cool to have someone to watch with. Especially someone new to the MCU, but you've made it this far. Keep it up!

[@jonathanross149]

"A cat that everyone else is weak to." I stroke my beard knowingly...

[@flawlessvictory6470]

Have you guys ever thought how all the Asgardians got to earth and some were still alive? Loki probably used the space stone he stole from the vault and safely transported everyone to earth. That why we see Valkyrie, and Heimdall son and the majority of the Asgardians. Loki doing one more good deed before he dies.

[@ryanadams2671]

Easily my favorite of all MCU films! It’s pure fan service all the way through and every actor NAILED their roles.

[@rickyalfaro3290]

Emme with the aggressive “give him a hug” xD lol

[@kindabatooni9314]

That Doctor Strange cameo was chef kiss 😘

Seeing Volstagg die in this hits now differently as actor who portrayed him Ray Stevenson died very recently.

[@steved1135]

The best MCU movie. Everything a comic book movie should be. Brilliant.

[@magicbrownie1357]

Ragnarok is great. In no small part to director Taika Watiti, who also does the voice of Korg. Love this one!

[@terrywilliams1372]

Thank you for posting. I was blown away when I watched this movie without all the commentary. The music playing at the end when Thor broke free blew my mind

[@Hyp333R]

Fun fact: the Grandmaster is brother to the Collector (from Guardians of the Galaxy)

[@ammash3000]

Asgardians have inherently enhanced healing so stabbing really would just be a friendly childish prank to them 😂

[@Belhade]

Loki got a good chuckle out of that story!

[@DonaldHolben]

The Immigrant song is about the vikings using the hammer of the gods to bring them to a new land.

[@fridaymovies2924]

29:17 In the original cut of the film that was to be her love-interest. They removed the context for the final cut as The Mouse™️ didn’t want to gamble with having an openly lgbtqia+ character hurt their box-office numbers 🙃 Happy Pride Month btw

[@rickyd-lux9067]

Taika Waititi is a really good director. He also did "Jo Jo Rabbit", and "What We Do In the Shadows". They would be worth reacting to.

[@ImpactFrame]

Hi Emme, just wanted to say that I'm a huge fan and I love your reactions! 💙

[@ellehcimbelle]

the popular fan theory is that Loki gained the Grandmaster's 'favor' by sleeping with him. which is very in line with the Norse mythology about him lol.

[@KthulhuXxx]

Hella is Cate Blanchett. If you've watched Lord of the Rings, she was Galadriel.

In Norse mythology, the Valkyries were angels that carried those who died courageously in battle to Odin's mead hall Valhalla, where they would fight a great battle every day, then all the dead would rise and they would all drink and feast all night.

"Find somebody who looks at you the way Loki looks at the Tesseract" Which, by the way, Hela also noticed as "not bad".

27:16 Point Break is a movie that stars Patrick Swayze as a surfer dude with long blonde hair. Thor resembles him, which is why Tony calls him "Point Break."

[@mikebrown7799]

Hi Emme, I'm a bit behind today on reactions.🙂In the play, that was Matt Damon as Loki, Chris Helmsworth's brother as Thor, and Sam Neill (Jurassic Park) as Odin. Odin went to the Asgardian afterlife Valhalla where his wife Frigga resides. Normally you have to die in battle to get there, but I suppose Odin is an exception. That is Australian actress Cate Blanchett as Hela. Korg is voiced by Taika Waititi. Great reactions to this light hearted Thor film, Emme!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@tarbano5681]

This was one of the best I think. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@suyashgehlot949]

This movie was so awesome! Easily the best Thor movie out there! Before this one, he was not really seen as a "main character" per se, like Captain America and Iron Man were, Thor was more or less seen as the classic god character who was in the Avengers movies. I mean, he was loved and respected before (but as much as them), and this film elevated that to another level. So much character development, that too with comedy and heart, and the best part about it is the comedy didn't feel forced at all, it was all so organic. Like the other comment suggested, I wish they didn't reveal Hulk in the trailers. I mean, I understand that from a marketing POV. But the theater audiences would've been blown away just like you were with Hulk's out of nowhere appearance and presence... Also I really appreciate you making these videos, they truly are something special and make my day! ❤ And I hope your day goes well too! ✌ And now you're literally there at Infinity War on Patreon (after Black Panther) 🤩💥 oh I can't wait for you to watch it!! I recommend that you post it in two parts on KZbin, to get all the good stuff from the movie covered nicely ✨ Unrelated sidenote: This has probably never happened in Star Wars as far as I know, but the Season 2 finale of The Mandalorian has a post credits scene. I missed it the first time I watched it lmao, so just putting it out there so you don't miss out on it... Peace ✌

Emme not knowing and loving Cate Blanchett is shocking to me.

[@agffans5725]

In Nordic/Scandinavian mythology Valhalla is the equivalent to Heaven, and is where Odin went, so he did not really die but went to Valhalla, while Hela Odinsdottir is Hel the Goddess of Death and ruler of Hel in Nordic mythology, which is also an afterlife location, like the equivalent to Hell. Ragnarök is a foretold catastrophic series of natural disasters, including the end of the world, though after these events, the world will rise again, cleansed and fertile.

[@whade62000]

Valkyre in Norse mythology are female warriors who ride down after a battle to gather the souls of worthy fallen warriors and carry them to Valhalla, where they will feast and train 'til the end times (Ragnarök) where they'll be called on to fight in the final battle of good vs evil. They are basically psychopomps (afterlife guide deities). Popular culture depicts them as robustly plump and singing very badly, both traits borrowed from opera where they are usually played by big women. The best known valkyre is Brünhilde from the German epic Der Ring des Nibelungen. They don't actually ride pegasi because Pegasus comes from Greek mythology, so they just ride regular unnamed flying horses.
