Thor (2011) - Caravan Of Garbage

The concept of Thor always worked wonders within the pages of a Marvel comic or in Norse Mythology or in a 1988 Incredible Hulk telemovie but translating it to the big screen would prove to be a massive gamble. Directed by Kenneth Brannagh and released in 2011, Thor Just Thor managed to rope in a terrific cast including Chris Hemsworth in the title role, Tom Hiddleston as Loki, Natalie Portman as Jane Foster, Anthony Hopkins as Odin, Rene Russo as Frigga and more. Combining magic, technology and myth it became a key part of the MCU paving the way for over a decade of appearances from the character. But the eyebrows were bad.

Fun fact: The term for starting the story in the middle and then rewinding the story to show you how they got to that point is called “in media res” which means “in the midst of things”, but it was actually originally called Blue Harvest

I always interpreted the closing seconds of the Thor: First Thor as Jane somehow finding a way to reach Asgard from Earth using technology. Cause it ends with Heimdall saying she's looking for Thor and goes into this flowing shot that starts with her in her lab and transitions into this credit sequence flying through space that ends at Asgard. I assumed next time we saw Thor he'd be transporting himself using a gadget Jane developed. But then in Avengers they handwave the rainbow bridge being destroyed away by going "Oden used dark magic or whatever...".

[@itcouldbelupus2842]

@@gridlo it isn't laughable but it's very boring.

[@steverogers7601]

Overall, the people who hate on Marvel movies because they’re “roller coaster movies” don’t give these movies their due credit. The MCU was able to successfully transition the whacky/weird source material onto the big screen as something that genuinely works “in real life”. Sure it’s goofy stuff compared to other “real life” but they were able to nail some things that you could say “I could see this happening in real life” all while keeping true to the source material and making it seem somewhat grounded. Let’s not forget the great job they did with character development. Thor has grown over the years, and Thanos was such an imposing and impactful character despite being entirely CG.

[@antona.8659]

No, they're not. The actor should look like the character as close as possible, even if makeup work is required. That's called acting, idiot. Also, he should've shaved his beard, to look exactly like Thor of the comics.

[@TwiztidThorn]

Even though it had it's issues, Thor, the first Thor, did the impossible. It made me give a damn about Thor when the comics never grabbed my attention.

[@charlesmaclellan8124]

I feel the MCU did that for pretty much all the Marvel characters for me outside of the X-Men, Hulk, and Spiderman. But especially for Thor and Captain America. At the time I couldn't imagine them making Thor or Cap look good in Live Action.

[@SuperOmnicronsj44]

Exactly. You realize that Thor's 77-80 run was BI-MONTHLY. So was Capt America and so was Iron Man. The Invaders which was a repurposed series with Sub-Mariner, Toro, and Cap occurred during WW2 and it was monthly and Capt America series had to ADD the Falcon to even be relevant during that stage.

[@Magmafrost13]

Of course, a year later, Jason Aaron's Thor: God of Thunder (2012-2014) happened and was one of the best Marvel comics ever written

Walter Simonson's run was my 1st series of comics I properly collected and got me hooked. Jason Aaron had a solid run too. But Walt's was perfect.

[@hollandscottthomas]

This movie holds up better than people remember - and it's also very accessible to an older audience if you're trying to get your parents into Marvel movies (just show them Captain America 1 first and then when it comes time for this one, mention how Anthony Hopkins is in it).

Most of Phase 1 holds up really well despite the tiny stakes and scale that comes later

[@itcouldbelupus2842]

On rewatch, this one doesn't hold up compared to anything in phase one or two, it's so boring. There is so little tension or stakes and the characters motivations are all over the place.

@@Wolfman7870 I understand with the Waititi films. Look this is a silly world. We can't really go dramatic with this. I mean we can but in the context of the MCU that's not what you wanna do. What Waititi did is embrace the absurdity of this premise where taking it seriously before with the dark world failed.

[@jessecortez9449]

Loki confronting Odin is still one of my favorite scenes in the entire MCU. Hiddleston is just stellar. I wish the Thor movies kept that level of emotional weight. Now Thor, himself, just seems to always regress in maturity regardless of what struggles he overcomes. People don't even register that he's lost so much because he's become so jokey.

@@jessecortez9449 It's because the Thor movies were considered probably the weakest of the main avengers. 1 is good but the 2nd one is the most generic MCU movie there is. I like that they took a different approach and embraced the wackiness with Taika Watiti.

[@user-nv2wt4hi8t]

I do love Thor 1. I think it captured the character and his origins near perfectly and I'm always so disappointed when I see people regularly compare it to the stodgy, boring mess that was The Dark World and when people lump it with the latter in favour of Ragnarok being the complete 'reinvention' of the character that 'saved him'. Where Thor was dull, lifeless, near humourless and weak in The Dark World, he was confident, charming, endearing and fun in the first movie and it's odd people act like that began with Ragnarok.

[@tomlewis4205]

I really love Ragnarok- basically because it reminds me of the fun of 1980's Flash Gordon- but after rewatching all of them, it amazes me how much people miss that Ragnarok builds off of & references both previous Thor movies! I am lowering my expectations for the new one though; I loved the first trailer but later trailers & clips + some reactions make me cautious.

[@adamseidel9780]

I don’t see how anybody can compare Thor 1 and 2. Thor 2 is definitely not good, but Thor 1 is perfectly good! It’s nit Thor 3, but then again neither is nearly any other Marvel movie.

[@OvertheHedge06]

We're almost 30 films into the MCU and I think more and more people are starting to appreciate this one more because it's the only MCU, or really the only Marvel film in general, that tries to be like Shakespeare and it really stands out from the others because of it.

[@hiimchrisj]

I think a lot of people miss the fact that Loki's plot was genuinely that he was pulling a simple prank that just escalated to the point where he gets Thor banished and he's just making it up as he goes along from there. Because I always see a bunch of arguments that like compare this to all the other convoluted schemes in superhero movies or talk about how his motivations seem to be all over the place and you can't tell when and where he's being genuine. But like I _really_ like that Loki's whole deal in this franchise is that he just fucked up really badly one day and he's just been doubling down on being the villain ever since. Overall, I like this movie. From an aesthetic standpoint, I think where they eventually take the look of Thor and the Asgardians look way better than it does here, but clearly they're just experimenting at this point. I like that the plot's pretty simple and self contained and you get the clear gist of what Thor from the comics is about. I think if I were to change one thing I would have it implied that Thor had been banished for a number of years prior to the events of this movie just to ease the transition of his redemption a bit better. Because we're already starting the movie in media res then jumping immediately into a flashback so you might as well fit in a substantial amount of time in between.

Thor 1 did it’s job to introduce the character. It def wasn’t a 10/10 film and it was honestly just alright.

[@andrewmyers2732]

You are completely right. I've been wondering for a while now why Chris Hemsworth looks so strange in the first film compared to his other appearances and I couldn't put my finger on it. It's the eyebrows! Once you see it, you can't unsee it. Why on Earth would they take the time to dye his eyebrows for a whole film? And you're right about his beard too. Dye Beard. All this coupled with his shorter hair makes him look very strange compared to what we're now used to.

Loki being controlled by the mind stone was originally only based on a fan theory. Loki was acting in his own. His character development requires this. Otherwise he's been a nothing character wasted away because the growth we see from him needs to be his own. If it's just due to a macguffin, Loki's character isn't as compelling. It would absolutely make him a simpler character, which might appeal to simple fans. But it's a BS theory/retcon. It keeps things simple, which is important when you're making things more complicated in the future, but originally it was not meant as this. This was a retcon based on fan reaction, and it was a bad one. Loki is a weaker character because of this

This was actually the first MCU movie I ever saw, and I remember fucking loving it as a kid. Still follow the MCU as a huge fan

[@CoolSmoovie]

The flashback in Thor 2 about the Asguard and Dark Elf war is one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen. I watch that movie just for that flashback lol

[@andrewmyers2732]

In my opinion, Patrick Doyle's soundtrack for this first Thor film has never been bettered in Marvel movies. I don't understand why they never got Doyle back.

Loving the Aunty Donna clip. "Do you have an addictive personality?"

[@MaxWelton]

4:40 it’s Sarah Halley Finn. What’s you expect?

[@doodleridoo9493]

Honestly this is still my favorite thor movie, ragnarok caught me so off guard with the nonsense that it felt like a parody movie about a thor movie we never got! The comedy was off the charts.

So glad I found your channel a few Months back, been binging everything since

Caravan Of Garbage is highly addictive

Thor 4 - The New Thor is really good! It isn't afraid to kill off characters, it isn't as whacky as the last one (lots of serious moments, sad moments and compelling stakes). My only issue with it was the end results of Gorr. It felt rushed and like they backed themselves in a corner. Imagine if Thanos snapped away half the universe, then saw Captain Marvel make a wish to give up her powers then Thanos having a change of heart, killing himself while bringing everyone he snapped away back.

The reason Hawkeye's presence in this movie feels vestigial is because they wanted to shoehorn him into the MCU and establish him before The Avengers. So they added him to this and cut the movie around it to make it look like he was in it but not change the story at all.

Patrick Doyle is a very underrated composer

[@betterine]

I've always loved the dutch angles in this movie tbh. It works for me.

[@The8347135]

"the norwegian village" is my hometown some green trivia 4 u. it's also New Asgard

[@harryallsopp9136]

I'm not a fan of what Lucas did with a lot of the special editions but I saw something saying they should CG his eyebrows on Disney+ because Feige calls it his biggest regret... and I'd love to see the attempt.

[@M1dniter]

Holy shit. That Blue Harvest factoid blew my mind 🤯

[@owesyoumoney3912]

"watch the video in the background while your doing something else" i look over from my monitor playing destiny 2 lmao

[@bbrbbr-on2gd]

00:59 Hell yeah, dude. (Laughs in Stavros)

[@OvertheHedge06]

It is a strange list of directors who put their stamp on the MCU. Not cinematic legends like Scorsese or Spielberg but like Kenneth Branagh, Shane Black, Sam Raimi, Chloe Zhao, Joe Johnston, Joss Whedon, Taika Waititi, and James Gunn.

Maso! Jameso! Love you guys, keep up the good work! Fyi, i would love to hear your thoughts on the Chris Evans movie Push. I feel like i've never heard anyone talk about it and personally i think it's pretty solid being a semi-independant superhero movie
