Gorr’s story is very sad but very understandable he’s the epitome of human curiosity and vengeance. I hope his story is done right in the movies, ( which I highly doubt) his story is not for kids at all. Gorr is the type of person to make you see the truth under all the ignorance of belief.

[@soggydinnerolls1821]

unfortunately i doubt it too

[@escandersanchez65]

Be an atheist take responsibility that it all

[@vullord666]

Yeah the movies tend to dumb down Marvel a lot, which is unfortunate because comics wise Marvel heroes are a lot more morally complex and Grey than DC. How they did civil war already told me they don't want to go down that route. They even had to give Thanos the dumbest most illogical motivations in an attempt to make him more family friendly and not a complete psychopath whose somewhat sympathetic as he himself is a victim of Death who wouldn't let him escape his obsession with her (imagine if we got him murdering him family as tribute to her in theaters). Every potential complex system gets turned into a one note black and white villain.

[@FatMarlonBrando]

Thanos is a far more complex and interesting villain in the films than the comics. Evil for the sake of evil isn’t interesting. A villain who is understandable and sympathetic is far more interesting. MCU Thanos acts how he does because of trauma and grief.

[@ericnancy4385]

I agree with all that you stated.

[@mrnelson3011]

1:06 I think there is a bigger validation for comic book creators than having their character in a movie and that is them getting a big paycheck for the character rights. David Aja, Ed Brubaker and Joe Quinones thinks so, most comic book creators do. Give creators their overdue compensations. They fricking deserve it.

[@DragonZord979]

My thoughts exactly. The creators more than deserve their royalties

Movie Gorr is far from being Comic Gorr in the film. They literally take his name and make him nothing like comic Gorr.

[@BigDexMedia]

I feel so sorry and sad for Gorr. My mans was just being faced with tragedy after tragedy and after being confronted with dying Gods, he unleashed all of his fury and hatred on them and from then on, he becomes an antagonist towards all religions

Goddamn, Gorr sounds like a really cool character. A dope backstory and motivation, a cool alien design and the freaking NecroSword

[@renatocosta8315]

Even though this new villain has been in existence for almost 10 years, Gorr seems to make a fitting part around Thor’s Rogues Gallery. Christian Bale is the best actor to bring the character and cross into the MCU as this point after a long successful career not to mention doing his part into keeping the genre Comic Book movies to live with The Dark Knight Trilogy rebooting Batman’s live action division. Can’t wait to see Thor Love and Thunder this month.

[@gamerman360]

The thing I love about bale being casted is that he’s very selective about what movies he’s in. He doesn’t care about a big paycheck or anything. So this alone tells me the story must be amazing

Fun Fact, that black God Gorr got the All Black from is actually Knull, the Creator God of the Symbiotes I.E. The King in Black. So yeah, if you think the All Black seems like a symbiote, that's cause it kinda is.

[@garchompinribs]

I’m pretty sure Knull made the Necrosword in the void before time or something like that. There should be videos on it and I think they might have it in part of King In Black.

A B&B movie theatre sounds awesome. And Christian Bale in a MCU Movie 🔥. Good to see him back in a comic book film 10 years after the last dark knight movie. And Gorr sounds like the dark Marvel version of Saint Walker but who lost his faith and in a darkseid origin manner took his anger out on all the gods that took his family away. Hope the cast and crew of the movie do well this coming week. Another great video Arris and Variant. Have a safe and happy 4th

[@ivanstayner8818]

We are getting closer to seeing Knull on the big screen. And I can't wait. We have had 2 venom movies, and now we have All-black. Knull would have to be the end of marvel. And then marvel could do a hard reboot with other heros we haven't really seen much.

[@ericnancy4385]

I could see Gorr, the god butcher and Knull, the god of the symbiotes working together. Because Knull used the Necro sword and went on a genocide against the other gods and, so did Gorr, thus proving that even the gods are not perfect.

The movie origins story of Gorr was too short and didnt do it justice

[@firxanza5172]

in the comics, Thor actually had to team up with his past self and future self to finally beat Gorr, and that wouldn't be the last time the Holy Trinity of Thors would team up the incident with Gorr actually planted a seed of doubt in Thor's mind, about how Gods are horrible entities the world would be better off without, this doubt eventually caused Thor to lose his worthiness and ability to wield Mjolnir, he was forced to abandon it on the moon, where it would later be picked up by Jane, who heard its calling and used it to become Lady Thor

[@Comic_Jerm]

I can’t believe y’all just skimmed over King Thor like that. Gorr became one with the Necrosword and is resurrected after Loki had taken it. He then comes back to fight Old King Thor and consumes what’s left of the universe to become the All-Black the Necroverse. After Thor defeats him, he becomes mortal and insane and is watched over by the Sky Lords.

Having read some of the plot spoilers about the relatrd movie. I'm pretty sure MCU Gorr's design and looks is minor difference compared to the treatment of the character in the movie.

[@DeadmanInc336]

Maybe even use the God Bomb angle from the comics and a fragment of the Necrosword left inside of Gorr kept him alive. Then Kang The Conqueror comes along, sees the potential in letting Gorr loose on Thor and the Avengers, and gives him the technology to time travel so he can seek revenge on Thor.
