having the kids of the people working on this movie be in this movie is actually pretty clever, as they won't have to hire child actors, their parents will already be around anyway and, further more, it's also a way to reward said cast and children by Taika. win-win-win, I'd say.

So much of how good Jane is in the movie is actually due to Natalie Portman fighting to keep the character consistent with the first two movies.

One thing I definitely loved about Bale's performance is how quickly it was apparent that the Necrosword altered his mind. When he grasped the sword, his demeanor instantly changed from "shell-shocked, grieving father" to "calm, bloodthirsty killer." And when the sword was destroyed he switched back almost instantly as well. I just really wish we had seen more of him actually killing gods.

[@slartimus]

Your explanation of how Thor-ing up was killing Jane (removing the chemo "poison" without actually doing anything about the cancer) is basically straight-up how it was in the comics, so it fits. Meanwhile, I agree that Bale did a fantastic job as Gorr, but I'm kind of glad that he _is_ a one-and-done villain, because IMO in the comics he _vastly_ overstayed his welcome to the point that he stopped being "ooh scary threatening villain whose philosophy challenges the validity of Thor and his fellow deities" and became "oh ffs just stfu and go away already."

[@veltzon4322]

The depiction of someone battling cancer is eerily spot on for what I was expecting to be an over-comedic, action flick. Jane often looked so much like my own mother did during her battle. And with that there were definitely days when my mom was doing so well she almost seemed above her normal health, almost heroic, but after each of those days the next would be even worse.

The golden blood isn’t just about getting around censors; in Greek myth, the gods’ immortality came from them not having blood but Ichor, which is often interpreted as being gold in color. (There was also a thing about Ambrosia, but that’s not relevant here.) This also helps explain who Zeus survives. I appreciated the nod to historical myth when I saw it.

[@vgmaster02]

Yes. Ambrosia is the food of the gods, Nectar is the drink of the gods, and Ichor is the blood of the gods. You can presume that the food they were eating and the drinks they were drinking is the Ambrosia and Nectar, but it was definitely them showing the gods have Ichor flowing through them, which yes, I love that they kept that nod to the mythology.

Plus, Chris & Natalie's chemistry remained strong as ever; I could feel *their* reunion just as much as I felt Thor & Jane's. 🥰⚒ (Also, on a personal note, I would've included a win for seeing Valkyrie wear a Phantom of the Opera shirt in the film.

Oh, and he was never "redeemed" in the comic. It's the focal point of the story that Gorr is a bad person and doesn't deserve redemption.

I loved the movie and rewatched it over and over. My only problem with it was that it wasn’t long enough and needed more. More locations, more Gorr, more Necro Sword backstory. We didn’t see Gorr find and butcher the gods. And whenever he was on screen, every shot change was inconsistent so you could tell that a lot was edited out. Which Marvel and Taika confirmed since they felt that a lot of Gorr’s scenes were too scary or rated-R. So that was a bummer and it hurt the film, but I loved everything else about the movie.

I have to say this is one of my favorite MCU movies, and it absolutely hit all the marks for me. I know it wasn't the most serious or integral to the MCU, but the jokes were funny, the soundtrack hit, the emotional moments landed, and the actors really killed it. I think a lot of people only go into Marvel movies to analyze every scene. By those standards, it's not the best movie. This movie is also not as brutal as the others, and can be inspiring to kids, which I loved. It still pulled the heartstrings. I also loved that, for me, it redeemed a character who I thought of as mundane and boring. It really made Jane's character amazing. Also, the majority of the kids in this film are the actors' kids, which is adorable and heartwarming. I also liked Ragnorak, so I am definitely preferential to the light-hearted action and humor that we don't usually see in MCU movies. But this movie just killed it.

One thing I walked away with from this movie is that despite it having the makings of a romantic comedy, it avoids the most common (and annoying) narrative device of that genre: bad communication. While Thor doesn't always immediately say what's on his mind, when he does he doesn't hold back, doesn't beat around the bush, and makes himself understood. I think part of the reason is that the movie had a lot of other things to do and so didn't have the time to deal with that sort of nonsense, but it also reads to me as how much Thor has matured by this point in his story.

[@toddverstegen6907]

Bonus win: at 15:30 ish, when Thor powers up all the children, the lightning takes the form of Yggdrasill.

[@garrettgraf2514]

Ahhh Thor Love and Thunder: the most under appreciated recent installment in the MCU. I’ll be honest, it wasn’t my favorite either, there were a lot of things that could have been better, and debatably *should* have been better. After thinking about it though, I think this film executes what it was meant to in the best possible way. The biggest thing that changed my mind on my thoughts on this movie was the fact that Korg narrates the movie. Once I remembered this, I became more appreciative of THOR:L&T. Of course it’s going to be weird, and of course it’s going to have HUGE narrative loopholes, and of course it’s not going to be serious. That’s Korg, and Korg narrates the film. Personally, I think of this film as a “based on a true story” MCU film. This isn’t what actually happened, this is a retelling of the events that takes a lot of artistic liberty.

Love this movie because it actually progresses Thor's Character Arc. In Endgame/Infinity War he refused to let people go, thinking that "fate is on his side" as if he could stop death itself and when he couldn't it broke him. That's what we saw in Endgame, a man who couldn't move on and now in this film he has one thing, just one thing back that he lost and he finds out the woman he loves is dying of cancer. As you said he let's her chose how she wants to spend her final moments and in doing so loses another person he loves but this time he has a choice in the matter and grows by letting it happen and not looking away when she dies. Yeah this movie is goofy and surly not everything works but in no way would I call this film bad.

[@the_tactician9858]

Part of it is the expectations and the fact phase 4 of MCU hasn't been groundbreaking. People have been told they would get new stories, and given how good the Infinity Saga was expected quality of that caliber, but apart from Spiderman: No Way Home nothing really came close to it. And with Thor: Love & Thunder, that is not different. The movie is decent imo but it is not the new Infinity War, and patience is running thinner with every bad, mediocre or 'merely decent' films. To top it off it is guilty of trends in Hollywood that alienate part of the audience. Not everyone will like it if Valkyrie outperforms the poster boy, even if there are technically rules that allow that, and to be fair, Thor never really gets his comeuppance, and neither did he against Hela. That is not to say this movie is a flop and has no redeeming qualities. The message on cancer is welcome, the villain is written smartly and there are a bunch of good jokes in there, even if they start to go stale after all the comedies in the MCU (as opposed to She-Hulk, which for a supposed slice-of-life comedy has very little humor afaics). It has problems, but nothing that writes it off completely. It is however indicative of how MCU Phase 4 is a serious step down in quality from the Infinity Saga, and I for one am not looking forward to Phase 5 anymore.
