Thor Love And Thunder In Review - Every Marvel Movie Ranked & Recapped

[@s___e___b___72]

The defeat in Greg’s voice after Kevin muted him :(

[@xArachnidz]

FYI little tidbit I noticed. Jane said it was 3 years Thor said 8, telling us she got snapped and he ofc did not.

[@SamedMuratagic27]

Nice catch

[@cadvan6]

Oh true. Personally I took it as the time frame between the release of dark world and love and thunder. I haven’t looked at it specifically but I’m pretty sure it matches up quite closely. Edit: which doesn’t line up with the mcu timeline ofc. I took it as a fun nod to the release dates; but her being blipped makes sense if they broke up a bit before ragnarok.

[@Tairashimuzu]

Yea she did get snapped. They showed her picture on the screen in Endgame

[@MissKatieWood]

Forgot the best part where Thor rides stormbreaker like a broom stick lmao

[@Baldsax]

I would have loved another 20-30 minutes of Gorr actually doing some butchering on screen.

[@BraxtonLuty]

Leading up to this movie I would have loved a 'monster of the week' show with Gorr

[@teddyholiday8038]

Yeah, Gorr’s kills are epic in the comics. They needed way more Gorr. Bale was phenomenal in the role.

[@Daniel145D]

Yeah there should have been at least a couple extended scenes of him hunting down and killing gods.

[@xOogieBoogie3x]

They filmed it. Got cut for being "too dark" apparently.

[@War624]

Yeah. That's one of the things I felt hurt this movie most, moreso than the abrupt tonal shifts. Bale is a phenomenal actor, and was very underutilized.

[@ollemunther3086]

I for one appreciate Greg trying to integrate such a fan favorite podcast within a podcast as Rockin Robin TM in to the MCU!

[@somecoolguyiknow]

That felt like real frustration and anger when Greg was muted, I think he was actually hurt by Kevin shutting his fun down. :c I personally like off-the-rails Greg, I get his frustration.

[@warrendavis8207]

Sweet Child O' Mine was played twice. First after deafeating Zeus and then for a second time at the end of the movie when Thor and Love are running together.

[@sillyskater2]

I’d of liked to see Gorr kill more gods because he seemed like a true threat but really glad to see at the end what “Love and Thunder” was about and I’d like to think that is the line Jane told Thor at the end.

[@dillsnufus]

That montage of them being a couple could’ve been a D+ series and I would’ve been all for it.

[@antiguax8121]

It broke my heart when Kevin muted Greg during Rockin Robin 💔 Anarchy Greg = Best Greg.

[@anthonycollette2348]

I'm with Nick 100%. I loved this movie a lot and felt that it had so much heart and personality

[@ddec7687]

The idea of the ending of the movie being korg having told a story to children would 100% take the film to another level. That is the best take I've heard yet!!!

[@ThePonderer]

The entire movie (sans the opening scene with Gorr) frames it as exactly that.

[@lexis4490]

That was the point

[@ddec7687]

@@lexis4490 huh? I was agreeing that it would have made the movie better.

[@xizor1d]

This movie felt like a business trip where you get through all your work as fast as you can then go out and spend the companies money on fun shit. It felt like the Taika Waititi got the bag and said "aye y'all we going to shoot all the part of the movie we need to make a movie. The intro, the drama, the exposition, yada yada yada. Then we are going to just have a fucking blast after that. It felt the cast was having a blast. But that fun didn't translate to me as well. For me it felt like watching someone else play a game as opposed to playing the game with them. Taika got his shit off on this movie. Any little artsy thing he wanted to do that could fit in his budget and not totally ruin the vibe of the he did it. This movie felt so experimental and coming after Ragnarok that kinda grates on expectations of what this movie was supposed to be. It sort of rest expectations as now I can't wait for the next Thor movie so all the stuff T.W. figures out in this movie can be executed in the next movie. It also show me that the studio being controlling over these properties has its place, as this movie would have been a lot better if T.W. could have been rein and constrained a bit. 7/10 for me. This is phenomenal Disney plus movie, but it's just a good Theater movie.

[@somecoolguyiknow]

Nick saying "mmkay, gotta Google 'a o e' later" was funnier to me than it should've been, such a boomer moment 🤣

[@mana66777]

Hey Greg - love your funny moments. Hope you weren’t feeling down 🙂

[@langleymneely]

Why did I think Love (Gorrs daughter) was played by Taikas daughter when it was ACTUALLY Hemsworths daughter India!? I thought it was cute that all the Asgard kids were played by the children of the cast, Hemsworths, Portmans, Taikas, etc.

[@rashannfinger9811]

I'd rather watch Gorr than Hella! She was still excellent but I think gorr was much more unique and still a tiny bit of charisma still.

[@CorruptedPulse]

The ragu bagu discussion made me think of how much it would have helped this movie if we learned about Eternity along with Gorr instead of just getting that information from Zeus and Valkyrie

[@MeteoraFigure.09]

You see it at the start when he grabs the sword for the first time, a flash vision played in Gorr's eyes saying open the bifrost and go to Eternity

[@MelodicQuest]

I would love a Jane & Thor rom-com. No Avengers nonsense, just them being in a relationship. Chris Hemsworth and Natalie Portman had such great chemistry together.

[@thekittencornyshow8223]

It took a while to warm up for me but I greatly enjoyed it by the end. Certainly a lot more heart than Ragnarok. The ending really worked for me. I felt absolutely no emotion whatsoever from anything in Ragnarok. I liked the parallel between Thor losing out on all that time without Jane because he was scared of being vulnerable, with Jane choosing to be vulnerable and spend time actually doing something rather than spend the time she has left in hospital, knowing she won't survive anyway. It crept up on me and it's easy to miss but it's definitely intentional.

[@LoveFactorySweatShop]

This ranked next to Shang-chi? Something's wrong.

[@graememowat2322]

Ignoring the chat about the movie for a second. Andy, finish that rendition of Guns N Roses Sweet Child O Mine because that was honestly class!

[@lennystyle]

I liked the idea of Korg doing the voice over storytelling in moments, but the execution could have been better.

[@lobolink2772]

The first half of the movie I agree wasn't perfect but by the end it had won me over and I had tears in my eyes. Loved it

[@ahhskitskit123]

greg's rockin robin podcast this episode is top 3 kinda funny moments of all time lmao

[@SuperNest24]

I feel like some of your feelings about the movie depended on the crowd's reaction when you watched it. I definitely didn't have the laughs during Gorr scenes in my theater and I felt the opposite of what Andy felt on them.

[@chp6thdude383]

Not cool Kevin for muting Greg 😤😤😤

[@Llo834]

The ending with all the Batman podcasts chimed in felt like watching love and Thunder. It's entertaining when Greg did it but I was also wondering if any of this is real indeed

[@teddyholiday8038]

I absolutely loved this movie, so much so that right after I left the theater I said “this must be in the 90s on RT and MC.” You shoulda seen my face when I pulled out my phone to check. I’m pretty shocked that there are so many negative reviews. Some “top reviewers” are calling it the worst MCU film. To me, that seems absurd. Yes, it’s rushed. We needed more of everything, but that’s because everything is so good. When the second part of “November Rain” hits, I legit got goosebumps. It’s number 8 on my personal MCU list

[@teddyholiday8038]

Also, as much as I love this movie, my other gripe is that it suffers from a little of that “corny MCU dialogue” syndrome. We didn’t need Jane Foster to say “I’m the Mighty Thor!” It would have been more effective if, as she shows up on the pegasus, for one of the kids to look up in wonder and kinda whisper “the mighty Thor!”

[@thekittencornyshow8223]

I agree, I'm shocked by the bad reviews. Maybe a case of false expectations. I think people will warm to it over time. Some of the film was messy, but I can forgive that for how hard the ending hit me.

[@teddyholiday8038]

@@thekittencornyshow8223 when I saw the MC and RT scores after I finished the film, I couldn’t believe it. Legit reviewers are saying it’s the “worst MCU film.” That’s crazy. I understand not everyone is gonna love it like I do, but WORST MCU film??? No chance.

[@andrewdenato8481]

Pretty much agreed but I see the flaws with it, and they def slightly bring it down even tho I loved it. 10 on my list

[@obyrodriguez7816]

The audible groan from everyone when rockin robin starts playing 😂

[@JustinTheJovial]

I think I liked Love & Thunder more than Ragnarok. It was fun and emotional, the fights with Natalie Portman's multi hammer were dope, and I didn't know what to expect. I didn't think they were going to introduce and kill The Mighty Thor in the same movie, I thought they were setting her up to take over.

[@MaximLight269]

Greg nailed it!

[@ilivecreed9743]

I feel like the valhalla post credits scene is more teasing thors destination, maybe at the end of a taika trilogy or whenever chris hemsworth is done, they kill him off send him to valhalla and he gets a happy ending with jane, loki, mom, dad, heimdell, the warriors 3.

[@jacobpro_]

Greg nailed this take. Movie is like a 7/10 at best imo. Needed another 20-25 mins to show more Gorr.

[@crosstownslayer7013]

YOU KNOW WHAT TIM. YOU HAVENT COVERED SHREK

[@loganbigmo]

Based on the KF ranking, I'd have _Thor: Love and Thunder_ at number 29, below _Iron Man 3_

[@matthewbrenning3532]

Not sure if people noticed but when they entire the city with all the gods Thor says “hey there’s the god of carpentry” referencing Jesus in the MCU

[@xizor1d]

Even after all these years I still laugh at "Rad Guys" that name gets funnier the further we get into the future.

[@isuriadireja91]

while i can appreciate what Taika brought to the Thor movies, mainly through his humor, I just feel it's a pity that that happened at the expense of Thor's more significant stories that did need more of the dramatic tone to them. Hela and Gorr would have made iconic villains to Thor at the level of Loki (in Thor and The Avengers), Thanos, Killmonger and Vulture...BUT, because, as Tim said, they had to take a backseat to the humorous tone Taika's bringing to the franchise, they both got kinda shortchanged. i hope, SOMEHOW, they can bring them back once they've kinda course corrected Thor to just the sweet spot he was in Infinity War and beginning of Endgame. I like the movie, but, it just felt SO light weight..and considering it was telling Jane's cancer story and Gorr butchering gods (which we didn't get to see enough of)...that shouldn't've been the case.

[@andresvelasco2444]

Motion to have Ted Lasso on screencast for season 3?

[@RyanBounedara]

It was fun, and I enjoyed it - but I wouldn't confuse those things with great (or even good). And I'm mostly cool with that, but those distinctions I think are important.

[@JG-pp8cc]

Gorr absolutely belongs in Gordon in Review

[@FunVasiliTime]

Having gone to the movie with people within different age brackets, I feel like the younger audiences felt the same way as Tim and Andy, and the more "older" audiences would be with Nick. I really enjoyed the story and don't really think that all movies need a massive set piece or need to be linked to the greater MCU. You just need to trust in the story. With Natalie Portman's performance, you can definitely see the weight that her illness has on her.

[@BLonsdale912]

Andy, didn't they play Sweet Child twice? I thought they played it again at the very end

[@hiramcaas]

Movie was such a let down. Phase Bore continues in a downwards spiral!

[@AstroFan428]

The whole movie just felt off. I feel the way I did after GOTG2, they let a very out of box director make a movie and then let them off the leash for the sequel. I don't outright dislike this movie like GOTG2, but I think it's a stepback from Ragnarok. I'm more open to seeing this one again because it is still hilarious and fun throughout. Nothing outside of No Way Home has really hit for me since Endgame.

[@jacksomedaysoon]

Almost the exact same for me with the exception of the gotg2 take. I have a soft spot for it since it's the only cbm I went into with less context than my girlfriend since I hadn't seen the first one. But yeah off is exactly how it felt even though I still enjoyed it

[@stevenmadethis2383]

ROCKY IN REVIEW LETS FUCKING GOOOO

[@clockstomper]

I would explain it like this: Gor without killing is like making a Highlander movie without swords, imagine Conner just wishes away immortality on a magic lamp.

[@dekamaster100]

Of course Nick would love this movie. Most of the humor is his type of humor, for better or worse. And fuck yes, Rocky in Review!

[@antoniomay167]

The scene with Gor ripping off the head of the snake in front of the kids felt more menacing like Penny Wise from IT

[@CrowTRobot]

I’m with Nick, I had a fucking blast with this movie.

[@Seanopp7]

This movie was entertaining enough, but ultimately a disappointment. Pacing was all over the place, writing wasn’t as sharp as its predecessor. Characterizations were baffling, vis a vis Thor. I didn’t laugh as much I did in Ragnarok. Greg nailed it, it’s empty calories.

[@tbatez]

Greg has officially lost his mind. LOL

[@realrobrose]

l liked that all 4 of them worked through the plot together with Nick just steering the boat. Nobody's gotta take notes in a movie theater.

[@adrianvalera4177]

I don’t know why, but the guy in the chemo office reading Jane’s book next to her reminded me of Kevin haha

[@dorukevcim7578]

Stormbreaker beer scene and Valkyrie speaker scene really didn't work for me.

[@thekittencornyshow8223]

Did poor Kevin get spoiled doing this?

[@Roland0fGilead]

Fun fact: the instrumental track for Crazy Town's "Butterfly" is taken from "Pretty Little Ditty" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers

[@PeterAtkinson]

I didn’t love Love and Thunder watching it the first time, but I feel I’ll enjoy it more and more with each rewatch. 👍👍

[@mus247365]

I thought the fight on the black and white planet was an outstanding set piece moment - so cool

[@CrossOutBryce]

Actually shocked you didn't do Wiggin Out for Heimdall. His wig was TERRIBLE

[@watermelonslipstream5467]

I think it could be all korgs story cause he comes back to "let me tell you the story of Jodie foster" so that to me makes it seem like it is the story coming from Korg

[@psitsnate954]

I for one wanted to know where Love ranked with all the Robins. Damn shame that got cut short.

[@Kdude216]

Ooo am I crazy for liking this movie more than Ragnorok?? Ragnorok was great but something about this was better for me

[@GGMU1987]

Yeah you crazy

[@austingoh8112]

The mute was not cool.

[@thezoof2841]

WOw. I would put it below First Avenger at 27. Just a huge disappointment.

[@Twinsfan1992]

This movie is a total mixed bag. I loved Ragnarok, but this is just too much into the comedy and introduces some issues into previous films. I feel like I needed to turn my brain off and that isn't a good thing. Biggest issues 1. How can Mojlnir be reforged? Is it just Jane wanted it. Thor didn't ever try to use it with his power? I know Thor put his spell on it (maybe unintentionally), but it seems weird that it just magically was fixed and he used it at the end of the movie. 2. Thor giving his power to the kids would have been really useful against Thanos. 3. Tone was all over the place. 4. Gorr was vastly underutilized and things like how he figured out Stormbreaker was the only way to complete his plan felt like a scene was missing. They could have shown him torture a god for information on how to get to infinity which would show him butcher a god and help show his plan coming together. Between MCU since Endgame (minus Spider-Man), and Pixar (Onward, Soul, Turning Red, Lightyear, Luca) I have been mostly middling on all of them where I used to be super pumped for anything new Marvel or Pixar. I have lost trust in both brands and think their glory days might be behind them.

[@josephgrigsby]

The Marvel Studios logo intro made me legit think I was starting a Kinda Funny and Review for some reason. 😂

[@StanleySThomas]

Definitely agree with Greg. This movie felt like an SNL skit of a thor movie for most of it but the jokes don’t land as well as it did in Ragnarok. It’s almost cringe. Too many jokes and not enough time to sit in serious dramatic moments that wouldve meant more. Plot and story felt very rushed and we got to things with characters that don’t feel earned. The emotional beats don’t hit or feel deserved. Christian Bale was amazing as Gorr and deserved more screentime to show more of his story, character and him actually butchering Gods but almost out of place in this more comedic movie that it was like Heath Ledger as Joker in terms of performance and story being thrown into a SNL sketch. There were no stakes really. Watched Ragnarok right before Love and Thunder and Ragnarok had a way better balance between jokes, drama, story, and character development. And the jokes in Ragnarok landed way better than in Love and Thunder. The theatre i went to only had a big laugh the first time the goats came in and screamed but that was really it. I really didnt like Thors character much in Love and Thunder, its like when he went to SNL to do skits of Thor. Thors best trilogy and story arc is between Ragnarok, Infinity War, and Endgame. I know phase 4 is like phase 1 and is supposed to set up bigger plots but this movie should still stand on its own and it doesn’t to me.

[@Avikus]

I really disliked the movie. The flow is messed up, best example is a character get majorly hurt only to have them walk about like nothing happened. It's like they tried to stitched a movie out of 3 movie, Guardian 3 + different Thor 4 + Mighty Thor tv show. And the acting was on part to the bad acting made by Matt Damon as a joke, except it wasn't a joke...

[@mohamedMustafa-yn4uc]

The only funny thing was the mat Damon play. This movie is the worst mcu movie

[@Cognitive-Clips]

Jane *did* die in battle - just with cancer instead of against Gorr. And she'd been deemed worthy of godly power, so makes perfect sense to me that she'd end up in the ol 'Halla

[@veylun]

I just got home from the cinema seeing this. Perfect timing thanks guys 😤🙏⚡🔨⛏️

[@bryceharper0]

Still waiting on Tarantino in review. I think that would have enough steam for lots of enjoyment and follow along from the community

[@JamesLeisenring]

Pretty sure Sweet Child of Mine played twice

[@Rockerfella360]

It felt like the real movie already came out and we were watching a 2 hour SNL parody of it. Very enjoyable but a bit too goofy and was missing more of the serious story telling to make me care for the characters. The black and white fight scene though was amazing!

[@MothmanTDT]

Kevin muting Greg gets mmmm 1 from me

[@gumgumleobazooka]

ThorThor’s Bizarre Adventure. As an MCU Thor fan and a GnR fanatic this movie fully delivered for me. No Ragnarok, but it didn’t need to be. Edit: November Rain-solo fight scene with a bunch of Thor powered children?? My god!!

[@vortex1790]

Gorr could have a stand alone film set before this but after the intro scene

[@JC-gi4yi]

This movie is definitely not better than Black Panther,Far from home, or Iron man. It should’ve gotten a lower ranking

[@kaofounder]

What this movie did to Stormbreaker and Mjoilnir is like if they had Captain America his shield to go Bob sliding in the winter or if Tony Stark put a flesh light in his armor. Why unnecessarily devalue a pivotal piece of a character simply for a joke?

[@joshuavelo4265]

They should have saved the Warriors Three from Ragnarok and had Gorr killed them in this film. Obviously, I'm sure the writers of Ragnarok couldn't see what was coming 5 years later, but I think having Gorr kill the Warriors Three could have added some actual stakes and tension. Gorr kills like one person, and I never felt like the kids were ACTUALLY in danger. Overall, this film just kinda felt "meh". I liked the opening narration and stuff with the Guardians until the goofiness just KEPT GOING. Like Greg said (I think it was Greg), I thought that some of it was cuz Korg was narrating, but then the ENTIRE film was like that, and it felt SO at odds with how straight and bleak Gorr was.

[@joshuacameron5333]

Greg does this a lot where he just assumes he is right and everyone is with him “it’s the thing WE are taking about” No it’s the thing YOU are talking about, Nick literally disagreed with your point. Many times it feels like he is trying to steamroll his opinion to the top of the list.

[@sonicboomkj]

I also noticed a leaked scene with Jane did not make it into the movie.

[@Darro85]

I saw it yesterday here in the UK and I thought it was good but disappointing nonetheless. I kind of wished we got more Gorr in it overall and a lot of the jokes didn't land with me and it didn't seem to with the audience I was watching it with either due to not hearing many laughs throughout. I personally enjoyed Multiverse of Madness more and I would watch it again over this. I will give it another watch once it hits Disney+. Also, wasn't a fan of the amount of Guns & Roses songs in this film probably because it isn't a band I would go out of my way to listen to. I know it has that Classic Rock motif with the logo and all that but man, it seemed like every big setpiece had to have a song from them and I was rolling my eyes by the time November Rain hit near the end.

[@iCb0x]

We got so many great hella badass scenes. I would have loveddd to see Gorr have many god killing moments so that when we cut back to Thor there’s this push n pull of hilarious but we now what’d coming

[@studiogimli7645]

the gorr scene scaring the kids was good acting but i thought it was really weird considering gorr himself has a kid and is supposed to really care about them lol. it feels like all the writing is really messy and the acting saves it

[@TomTudusHughes]

Loved the movie can’t wait to hear the guys thoughts

[@keemg10]

This movie was like a Looney Toons cartoon with serious elements sprinkled in. It felt like a spoof of hero movies with over the top cheesy, immature jokes. I kept expecting to see Gorr rip a fart. This is the best example of the MCUs humor problem. You have to strike a balance.

[@X5J2UY]

"Empty calories" is the perfect description for this movie. Good fun, but nothing of substance and it was very hard for me to really connect to anything going on. I've got to say that Marvel has been really struggling to get this new arc going. Other than Spiderman, none of their movies have really been memorable in any way so far. And Nick will love any movie with 70s/80s movie and really silly humor. You give him those two ingredients in a movie and he won't care for any glaring issues.

[@MelodicQuest]

I really loved the subplot with the kids. It reminded me of My Hero Academia. Thor and All-Might don't tell people that everything will be okay because they think they can stop the bad guy. They say it because it's better for kids to have hope than to be afraid.

[@CresentSoul]

That was such a tiny bit of the movie though. Barely anything to remember

[@cyou11]

Honestly shocked that Rocky is going to be the next In Review given that a new Predator movie is coming out in a month and that series is ripe for rewatch.

[@startoonhero]

I usually never agree with Greg on his movie reviews, but i 100% agree with him this time. Nothing felt serious

[@presidentc4]

I feel like this movie is far more serious than Ragnarok and not as funny as that movie either. I've seen it twice and both times someone (different people) I went to see it with cried. My fiancee cried twice. Ragnarok was 95% comedy

Was I the only one confused...they have a character named "lady sif" but they were very insistent on not giving Jane the title of lady or lord. Is there a comic reason? Seems like carrying the hammer should get you the proper station on Asgard.
