[@dcunharosa]

This is one the best things I have seen from you guys, comedy gold.

[@D2ACO]

“In the Dark Elf...” -Nick Scarpino LMAOOOOOO.

[@StealthMaster86]

"It would be nice, if for once, Thor and his people sent down the God of Cleaning Up After Yourself. " - Coulson.

[@jeffdaman6969]

Just let Greg do the plot reviews. He’s amazing at it.

[@rydogv9885]

Cannot wait for The Winter Soldier next week. My favorite MCU movie so far. The elevator scene is the fucking best!!

[@BlazerManiacNumber96]

I'm going to be triggered if they rank it anywhere other than number one.

[@Thuriazs]

best choreographed comic book movie ever. best plot too, by a country mile. fuck I love Winter Soldier.

[@rydogv9885]

Boomer Oh my god it has so many of the top action scenes. The opening infiltration on the boat, Fury’s escape in the SUV, going up against the Winter Soldier on the freeway and of course taking down the helicarriers. Even the downtime in between is some of the best character building stuff in the MCU. Everything between Steve and Natasha and then the gravitas that Robert Redford brings to the film...too good.

[@Thuriazs]

@RydogV you totally named all my favorite scenes DAMN

[@ihp7]

My guess is they'll put it at 2, or maybe 3. But in my heart it's 1 lol

[@rashrit]

This is why I love Thor 2: • The way it was shot. Some of these shots are some of the most beautiful I've seen in the 8 movies so far. Specifically, the one on the Dark Elves' homeworld where Thor is just blowing ppl away with his hammer and the camera is following him from behind and his cape is flowing and it's amazing. The Frigga "Burial/Goodbye" scene is amazing. When you really think about it, this is the first movie to have artistic kind of shots. •The overall style and feel of the movie. This is the first time, that a movie had a distinct feeling to it. You felt like "Yeah I'm in Asgard". And they nailed the fantasy/kings and gods feel. Their costumes and the sets they built and the specific look of Asgard is distinctive and unique. And don't even get me started on the Dark Elf Homeworld. It looks soo cool. With the fucking Black Hole as a Sun and the darkness and the grittiness. Perfect! •The fucking characters. For the first time Thor's buddies get a lot more to do and shine. Lady Sif in particular was great and the chemistry with her and Natalie Portman was really well done and encapsulated the competitiveness yet the mutual love for this hunk of man (Seriously look at those abs). Then there's Heimdall. One of the coolest side characters in the MCU. His action spot was amazing (more on that later). The main cast obviously is amazing. Odin, Loki, Thor all rock the screen when they are on it (especially Tom Hiddlestone and Anthony Hopkins). Overall, every character feels fleshed out and contributes to the main story (apart from the Human side characters) • Loki (No seriously there's a whole point on him). What can we say about Loki and Tom's performance that hasn't already been said? He does a great job of really making us question "Whose side is this guy on?". "Is he really evil or is it just a facade". The latter is really emphasized in one of the best scenes in the movie when Loki is shown grieving Frigga's loss. The moment when he "betrays" Thor really got me and I was like Fuck this guy only to be baffled and surprised by the subsequent reversal. This I felt was one of the best moments of the film. Fuck... Loki is good. • The Action. Oh my god the action in this movie is possibly my favourite in any Thor movie. The finale and how they play with the portals and Mjolnir is ingenious. The opening action scene is amazing where Thor just uppercuts a rock guy (like Korg) to death. The moment where everything slows down and he jumps to stop Malekith from killing Frigga was great as well. And what about that little moment when he just jumps and twists off a balcony and catches Mjolnir mid-air. Holy shit that was breathtaking. And that's pretty much it. Good job if you made it this far and have a Marvellous day.

[@med1ocreman]

But YOURE NOT KING!

[@pgs9407]

I've been waiting for this all morning!!!!

[@MATTYOGLE77]

I'm doing the weekly MCU re-watch and your guys review has become part of my weekly ritual. This is brilliant content.

[@chumphonFC]

Been looking forward to this all week!

[@SkullManiac28]

The Marvel One-Shot attached to this movie was by far the best one. 10 Rings and a real Mandarin? Iron Man 4 please.

[@sgfire526]

I was holding on until I heard Greg call Frigga "fritos". Then the laughter could not be contained.

[@ccavjrm]

one of the best ones hahahahah love this... maybe do other movies trilogies n stuff too!!!

[@jordanrobinson7881]

Possibly the best episode yet. Loving the show. Greg's story recaps are fantastic.

[@johnmeehan2734]

Very fun episode of MCU in Review! Keep up the awesome content Kinda Funny!!! :D Here is my new ranking so far: 1. Avengers 2. Ironman 3. ‎Black Panther 4. Ironman 2 5. Captain America: The First Avenger 6. ‎Ironman 3 7. ‎Thor the Dark World 8. Thor 9. Hulk This movie had parts that were better than all of the first Thor, however all the lows in this movie is much lower than Thor 1. I really liked Loki through out this whole movie. The serious parts of him being escorted to Odin at the beginning and him finding out about his mother's death were pretty awesome. He also had some super funny parts like him turning into Captain America, making fun of Thor and him saying there will be a line for killing him if he betrays Thor. Also, Thor hanging is hammer on the coat rack was so funny. This movie does fall flat with the plot and the villain. I agree that Thor is a better movie on paper but Thor the Dark World was more enjoyable to me. -Zanfare

[@si-vt1rt]

Just posted my list before seeing this, absolutely identical. Thor the Dark World was so much more fun than the first Thor although the first is a better movie overall. And I cannot understand how Hulk is so high up on their list, it feels like they only put it there out of pity somehow because it isn't as "Marvel" as the others.

[@conorbrett7729]

I remember hating this movie, and this rewatch made me love it. It’s right up towards the top for me. I just don’t understand what everyone hates about it. I thought the action was cool and the story was solid. Thor and Jane’s chemistry was once again excellent (absolutely seething they wrote her out in one line later on) and the other characters (except the villain were all solid. Does anyone else agree? Maybe I’m just alone on this one

[@realrobrose]

I never realized the rock guy he destroys at the beginning is the same creature as Korg from Ragnarok

[@richyfeliciano21]

I laughed for 3 minutes straight at the end credit scene 😂😂😂 great work as always!

[@TopCheeseBarDown]

Loki being on the throne is the reason Hela came back because he ran the kingdom into a hell hole. So it was very important.

[@loganbigmo]

He didn't exactly run it into a hell hole, nor does that have to do with why Hela returned. However, Loki being on the throne did cause Hela's return, since he stripped Odin of his powers causing Odin to become mortal, Odin began to die, and thus Hela was freed.

[@tophrman]

Every movie so far, I've enjoyed more than I remembered. With this movie, it was the opposite.

[@smashingsuccess4827]

tophrman yup same way I feel

[@D21BeastReviews]

Some additional trivia for you guys: Loki was originally supposed to die in Dark World. After initial test screenings, Joss Whedon was actually flown to London for an uncredited re-write that included a scene showing Loki alive at the end as well as a major overhaul of the scene where Thor visits Loki after Frigga’s death. Whedon also peppered a few more one liners into the script.

[@MarsipanRumpan]

This series made me a Kinda Funny fan again (Followed the GOG from 1 to 100+ and kinda moved to EZA)

[@kindafunny]

thanks for coming back! -Andy

[@MarsipanRumpan]

Hey Andy, just wanted to tell ya how much I love your addition in Kinda Funny! (Same goes to Cool Greg & Joey) Must've been hard to join the guys when they have such a tight relationship. I love what you're doing, your editing (And popping in here and answering the fans) is awesome work for sure! Keep it up you beautiful fuck

[@SikuVT]

loved that end credit scene

[@ashenchin]

I feel like they said "but that was cool" way too many times to rank it as low as they did

[@levischorpioen]

I kinda feel like they equated the quality of the villain with the quality of the overall film. Malekith is definitely the worst villain, but to rank this lower than The Incredible Hulk, Iron Man 3 and the first Thor is insanity.

[@TheSmackerly]

Christopher Eckelston is also the Invisible Man in the first season of Heroes. Love that show!...we don't talk about Heroes Reborn.

[@boman987]

The Collector frequently has multiple collections in the comics. Some are even on museum ships. It seems that The Collector knows of their power more intimately than others do. 2 options, spread them out or keep them close. If he spread them out, it wasn’t in the same facility as the Guardians explosion. If he kept them close, he may still have it in a super-ultra-safe lockdown vault. We never saw how he would lock it away. I assume it wouldn’t be on display. [Cue Adam Warlock debate here.] it seems the helper didn’t know about the stone’s power until he explained it to the Guardians, so she may have not known about his “other vault” with other stones. Just some thoughts to ponder.

[@Mike_L.]

IMO both Thor films are better than The Incredible Hulk, an inconsequential and forgettable film (still a fine movie and being an early mcu film, I can forgive the lack of explicit tie-in). Malekith really is a terrible/the worst villain, but at least he's not a copy paste villain I guess..?

[@dgripper05]

They throw around the word hate like its candy, calm down guys lol

[@AwesomeNick94]

4, 5, and 6 are still bonkers choices to me. IMO: 1. Avengers 2. Iron Man 3. Black Panther 4. Iron Man 3 5. Iron Man 2 6. The Incredible Hulk 7. Captain America: The First Avenger 8. Thor 9. Thor: Dark World

[@kesselwinks]

Nick, name ideas for rank those abs podcast name. Ab-Solute Rankings.

[@TheDarman]

My understanding of the drama surrounding the movie is that Patty Jenkins wanted the villain to be Hela and Feige was on board. But the Marvel Creative Committee, that Feige had to answer to at the time (he got moved directly under Disney Studios right before Civil War came out), shot it down because they were worried Hela wouldn’t sell toys. So, Feige has to scrap Jenkins’ idea and Jenkins had to leave the project. With very little time left, they had to scramble to find a new story which is why the villain was trash.

[@randalladkins7452]

One unmentioned Easter egg - one of the warriors 3 (Thor's buddies) is recast in this and the next movie. The guy from Chuck took over the role from the guy from Once Upon a Time (David - Prince Charming) for the later two Thor movies.

[@loganbigmo]

that's not an Easter Egg though.

[@loganbigmo]

Just to clarify, the movie never actually said they used the Tesseract to repair the Rainbow Bridge. Although that is what happened, this was revealed in an MCU tie-in comic. It was never explained in the movie & I'm surprised the MCU didn't bother giving an in-film explanation.

[@Shadowknife74]

1.Avengers 2.Iron Man 3.Black Panther 4.Iron man 3 5.Thor 6.Captain America: The First Avenger 7.Iron Man 2 8.The Incredible Hulk 9.Thor The Dark World

[@MikeHeldTheWorld]

This is the only one I can't bring myself to rewatch. I just watched the cinemasins to remember the gist.

[@avip671]

The kinda funny logo needs a beard at this point

[@ArkAynJoel]

I can't tell if I love when KF likes the movie or hates the movie more. I laughed my ass off this episode xD Great stuff guys!

[@ancientflames]

Can't wait for Thor: The Dark Elf part 2

[@TylersNewGroove]

I definitely recognized the voice thing, Andy!

[@morganrhoney5835]

That candy Andy post credit scene was great

[@GibberMuzagi]

Best plot description yet.

[@BrandonDNH2]

Winter Soldier will probably be the first film I actually rewatch for next week's episode

[@jabzt]

When they said u could watch a marvel movie a week leading to avengers I thought it was cool but wasn’t going to do it until I saw they were doing this series. U should definitely just rewatch them all to get a fresh take unless you’ve seen em all multiple times already.

[@PimpinPenguin96]

Nick needs to fuze "Abbu babbu" with his "beep boops" when he does his intense programming to enter Subscriber Only mode "Bee boop abbu babboop!"

[@si-vt1rt]

My list so far: 1. Marvel’s The Avengers (2012) - Although it wasn't as good as I remembered. The highs are still higher than anything so far. 2. Iron Man (2008) - Better than I remembered. Now I see why people think this is the best movie. Easily a classic. 3. Iron Man 2 (2010) - Way better than I remembered. Thought this would be bad but was so much fun to watch. So many fun characters and interactions. 4. Captain America: The First Avenger (2011) - Meh, this is mainly because Cap is my favourite character but also the movie has a lot of heart. 5. Iron Man 3 (2013) - Way better than I remembered. I thought this would be garbage but it was surprisingly entertaining if you turn your brain off. 6. Thor: The Dark World (2013) - Way better than I remembered. Same reason as Iron Man 3 but doesn't have the RDJ charm, although Loki might be as awesome. 7. Thor (2011) - Worse than I remembered. Hated the diagonal camera stuff, took me completely out of the movie. Still kind of fun but entirely forgettable. 8. Incredible Hulk (2008) - Don't even remember watching it the first time, probably won't ever watch again. Not including Black Panther yet because it needs a second watch to be fair but probably above Captain America: The First Avenger. I don't understand how Incredible Hulk is so high up on Kinda Funny's list. Andy was right (I think it was him), it was so forgettable, little to no comedy prevented me from having fun at the very least, and the villain was just laughably bad (although so was Malekith).

[@randomizednrg]

do any of these reviews include spoilers of the later movies? thanks

[@JaredHayes541]

When Andy Said “BUT YOU’RE NOT.. king yet” oh man, I died 😂

[@CesarPalafox90]

FYI I don't think Thor controls rain, I think Natalie and Kate not getting wet in that scene was because a convergence circle was in the top of them. But the movie was meh

[@SlayerGiant]

The birth of "These fucks from Thor 2"

[@mjspresents]

Hahahaaaa! Love these end cut scenes haha!!!

[@williamskipworth9505]

I did really like that this took place in London. They should have more Marvel movies take place outside the U.S. just to mix it up a little.

[@johnr.hufstetleriii7715]

Hilarious review.

[@kuldeepsolanki1577]

I remember being in the theater and the whole audience (including me) was really enjoying themselves. Like it had solid jokes scattered throughout the movie.

[@jasonvallve-spence1469]

That post credit sequence made me piss myself!

[@rccharger21]

Andy's Nick Saban reference is spot on

[@kingofzero]

The end credit scene made me laugh more than I should have.

[@tomderlauch8344]

The rainbow bridge was explaibed in the Thor the dark world prelude

[@masklambda]

I skipped the Black Panther episode. I'll watch them in order. Thanks for the good content, though.

[@johnbalkin8223]

[@kevinkomaki7392]

My Tuesday is complete

[@austinevans8842]

Dying of laughter this shit was funny as fuck. Greg had me weak!

[@jackstuhley1745]

Erik hosted Loki for well over a year, that's why he showed major side effects.

[@CypherC300]

Fucken love the post credit scenes in this video series.

[@loganbigmo]

I agree with Tim & Nick; found this better than Thor 1. I went into this remembering it as being so bad it was a waste of a sequel & Thor was whack, but it wasn't as bad as I remembered & there are nuggets of Thor's comedic nature which would get significantly expanded in Ragnarok.

[@kuldeepsolanki1577]

Maybe if the consensus is that the movie is bad, you guys should start comparing it on the rankings from the bottom up. If it’s good start from the top. Like for black panther you could’ve asked if it was better than Avengers and then moved down if the answer was no.

[@pattynufc]

My top 8 as of this episode. (Not including Black Panther) Avengers Iron Man Cpt. America Iron Man 2 Iron Man 3 Thor TDW Incredible Hulk Thor

[@michaelgomez5212]

This is fan service for people who read the Thor comics. I think it’s a great film personally, just had a jumpy start.

[@raymanjamal1152]

43:05 I gotchu Andy!

[@ScottVersus]

I think the yellow soul stone is part of Vision. The one Tony Stark used to bring Jarvis to life

[@loganbigmo]

No that's the Mind Stone. Soul is orange.

[@ericdrummond5299]

"Seoul" in Korea hahahahah I love it Andy

[@megafun7982]

What are you guys planning on doing now that the Avengers: Infinity War release date has been moved up to April 27th?

[@miguelhaslauer6353]

You guys should be ranking the Stan Lee cameos while doing this

[@alexlawrence6440]

[@briancarey2593]

Andy calling Alan Taylor the Nick Saban of directors did not get the appreciation the joke deserved.

[@loganbigmo]

For a movie featuring the Reality Stone... you'd think the Dark Elves' plan could have been to, idk, rewrite reality?

[@erkskirk8868]

I think instead of Abbu Babbu, Nick should rank each character and how Jacked they are in each movie. This will play very well for winter soldier when he see's that helicopter scene again.

[@TheRealGarate]

Having rewatched it in preparation for next week’s rewatch, I’m with Nick. I enjoyed it and the Loki stuff is still great, maybe waaayy better with Loki season 1, but in the end probably very forgettable.

[@blackrippin]

People say the soul gem is buried under the mystic plants

[@trevorgarey5646]

listening to them talk about Natalie Portman never coming back knowing that she is gonna be in the next Thor movie and has the hammer

[@ThePhilipoconnor]

1) I actually liked Thor 2 for what it's worth ha. 2) How can Gregg trash it so much when he thinks bvs was good??? Thor 2 is better in every way.

[@soren4ever]

It’s funny, I don’t really hate Thor: The Dark World as much as most people, and actually kind of liked it. It’s definitely not my favorite, but also not my least favorite. My movie Ranking: 1) The Avengers 2) Captain America: The First Avenger 3) Thor 4) Iron Man 5) Thor: The Dark World 6) Iron Man 2 7) The Incredible Hulk 8) Iron Man 3 My Villain Rankings: 1) Loki (The Avengers) 2) Loki (Thor) 3) Emil Blonsky/Abomination 4) Johann Schmidt/Red Skull 5) Malekith 6) Ivan Vanko & Justin Hammer 7) Obadiah Stane 8) Aldrich Killian & “The Mandarin” I haven’t seen Black Panther yet, hence why it isn’t included.

[@TheClockworkDigital]

This has the first Rank Those Abs!

[@falconbox]

Personally this one still ranks dead last out of all 18 movies on my list.

[@bluefury]

Hey Tim. The Aether isn't tee first infinity stone. The tesseract is.

[@fireblader1993]

Its definitely in the bottom 3 of the MCU but its not a bad film. Thor & Loki have some underrated moments.

[@Garrus234]

Thor has been controlling the weather in the comics since pretty much the beginning. While i agree the movie isn't very good but the rain being a thing to get hung up on is kind of silly in my opinion.

[@queenofgreen83]

FYI, Thor controlled rain in the first movie, too, when he gave his jacket to Jane before he infiltrates the S.H.I.E.L.D. containment around his hammer. According to a Thor Wiki: "Thor is the Norse God of thunder, lightning, storms, and strength, a son of Odin, husband of Sif and the father of Magni and Modi." And also this: "In Norse mythology, Thor is a Æsir god associated with thunder, lightning, storms, oak trees, strength, the protection of mankind, and also hallowing and fertility." That being said - yes, this was one of the worst of all the Marvel movies.

[@JoeWalby]

One of the funniest MCU in reviews so far. RIP Hawkeye

[@teddyholiday8038]

At around the 49:00 mark there's a moment that kinda irks me a little bit. Andy gives his opinion about The Incredible Hulk and Kevin completely dismisses him. Kevin, I love you but you gotta tolerate other peoples opinions

[@ccavjrm]

FYI Thor CAN control the weather, not as intense as Storm, but Storm like.

[@chapelzero8313]

Holy shit the Hawkeye takedown: best shit on the internet

[@kennethmccrindle8886]

Is it just me or do the Dark Elves look like a demented cross between Sauron and Teletubbies?

[@sortaokayreviews9681]

I need to catch up to Kinda Funny, but I also remember Thor being one of the lower tier MCU movies.

[@PlayErrday]

So excited for the Winter Soldier!

[@DrJoePsych]

ahahahahahahahaha that Greg rant about Hawkeye was legitimately better than this awful movie

[@PimpinPenguin96]

Greg butchering everyone's name had me dying

[@KarioDudeRBN]

Someone out there, this is their favorite movie. For that person, I weep.
