[@dxman1]

I think they wanted to have Thor act that way is because he was masking his depression with losing so many people that were close to him. Anytime he was around Jane he was his normal self. But that’s just my take on it

[@slayerbot1394]

This was my take too. And not just losing people, hes also lost his hammer (to someone he thought he lost), something thats always been with him, the only 'memorabilia' of his father (also lost). And just trying to mask all the hurt with jokes, which is surprisingly something that i do. I dont consume alcohol, so attempted humor is my depression mask.

[@TheBlackbirdFly]

But if that's the case, they need to give us a minute to show that that's what Thor is doing and leave it room to breathe instead of just throwing more comedy on top of it.

All the actor's children were in this movie so seeing Chris with his own daughter at the end of the movie was hilarious and cute.

I heard that Mjorlnir has a spirit inside and Stormbreaker is alive as well cause it has Groot embedded into it, so its like a teen axe with an attitude.

[@dumpsterdawg]

Korg getting his rocks off

[@djcowell91]

Two points for questions you raised: 1. Why doesn't Thor give out his powers more often? He's only really gained that since the death of his father. Remember that Odin gave enchantments like that, so only as he learns to use the Odin-force can he do bigger stunts like that. 2. For how goofy the movie is, it's not just a Taika Watiti film, but one that's framed as a tale from Korg's point of view. We get the spooky start to Gor, and from then on it's all Korg's version of the events that play out. So if Thor seems dumb, remember it's Korg's view of Thor, not an objective one.

[@barisbal7782]

*''He's only really gained that since the death of his father. Remember that Odin gave enchantments like that, so only as he learns to use the Odin-force can he do bigger stunts like that.''* but then why he didnt do this on infinity war or endgame events? or during the opening when guardians need help? my theory is he needs a powerful magical item that goes well with his powers in order to share them. *''We get the spooky start to Gor, and from then on it's all Korg's version of the events that play out. So if Thor seems dumb, remember it's Korg's view of Thor, not an objective one.''* nah. opening was just one scene. even after korg's narration started we still got 5 more well executed, serious and emotional scenes without getting interrupted by jokes

My favorite part is when Stormbreaker is basically giving Thor side eye like “oh you talkin to HIM? Ok then…..” that was brilliant. I loved Thor’s story. Like even after Endgame he is still trying to figure himself out. Gorr was insane. Bale played that beautifully. When he creeps in on the kids telling stories I actually gasped. That was so well done. I haven’t read the comics, so Jane having cancer actually took me by surprise. I loved how they told her story here. I was bummed when she died but her being granted entry to Valhalla by Heimdall made me so happy. I’m so glad we got her character back. This movie just felt so different and I loved everything about it!

[@SaiyanHeretic]

In norse mythology, Thor does have two magic goats. If I remember correctly, he can kill and eat their meat, then put the bones back into the skins and the goats will be reborn by next morning. A stinger scene or something of Thor eating the goats because he got annoyed with them too would have been the perfect punchline.

[@phousefilms]

"You know what Ockti loves? Havin' his HEAD RIPPED OFF!(Tears monsters head off)"What? You liked it a second ago....Alright, alright....Ockti's GONE!"(Throws severed monsters head towards kids) LMAO! Fucking best scene. The children of the crew and such drew what they thought was scary and they were made into the monsters Gor uses. The kid Thor is Chris Hemsworths son, Love(Gor's daughter)is played by Hemsworths daughter and the Wolf Woman is Hemworths wife. His brother(Gale from HG), once again, plays actor Thor. Gor IS one of the best things in the movie. The other thing would be Roy Kent as Hercules. "GO TO HELL DEMON!" was adorable.

I think the hard part for me with this movie is that for the first half everything is a joke. Gorr is starting to go down a dark path that should have some emotional weight to it, but Lady Sith and Thor just make jokes around it so it no longer has the weight. I wish the first half had the same tones as the last half. I think it had such potential to be an impactful story.

[@elijah1164]

Until Gorr attacks New Asgard the movie felt like a really, really long SNL bit. Ragnarok was hilarious but the emotional weight was still always there, even if they did undercut it at times. But yeah like you said, the entire first act here is just one extended joke, it barely even feels like you’re watching a movie. It’s a shame because as a whole, the story the movie wanted to tell was really nice, they just literally didn’t care to tell it for the first chunk of the film.

[@ThatShyGuyMatt]

Good points. Movie goes from dark/sad to funny so much it makes it a mess.

[@danielleeskelton]

I think you summed that up pretty well.

[@UncleMilo]

I agree. They let the humor get ahead of the plot. With Ragnarok, the story was alway priority over the humor. They should have done more to build up Jane's story so that her death would have more impact, we should have seen Gorr doing some on screen god-killing to increase his threat level and they should have had more with Thor and the Guardians where Thor could see how they were a family and maker the connective thread to the finale of Thor taking on the responsability of being a father. You didn't have to change much... just pull back some of the humor to build up the plot points. I mean... that's why Ragnarok worked because the plot points were throrough with the humor backing it up.

[@wandacole5784]

Gorr is very dark, even darker in the comics.

[@Miggs01]

Thor at the beginning of the movie was going through a phase of rebirth/healing (Including his eyes). That's why he was like that and Stormbreaker has some emotions because it is also part Groot. Well, that's the theory anyway.

I agree with Steven. I love Ragnarok but this one overdid the comedy and often felt clunky. I love most of what Taika Waititi has done so far in the MCU and elsewhere, but the first half of this movie was rough. Everybody acted like an idiot and not even like an idiot version of the same character they're supposed to be portraying. They often felt like they were some other person. Like for example Lady Sif. She was a badass in every one of her previous appearances in the MCU, and in this movie she's there for a couple of minutes, loses an arm and acts like an idiot for a cheap laugh about her technically dying after a battle and thus not going to Valhalla. Instead of feeling like a funny MCU movie like Ragnarok of the Ant-Man movies, this often felt like a clumsy satire of the MCU in general that tried too hard to wink at the audience. Bale as Gorr was great as expected, but he was so good he often felt out of place and like he was in a totally different movie and nobody told him. I didn't hate it, but I went into it expecting to like it way more and instead ended up thinking it's one of the weakest MCU movies so far and though it has some good bits, they're ultimately overshadowed by some really sucky bits and weird choices. Taika Waititi managed to beautifully balance and blend comedy and drama in "Jojo Rabbit," so I know he can do it. But here? He failed miserably.

Wonderfully worded there. I agree, Jojo is maybe his best movie so far though

Taika waititi turned thor into a goofball. And not in a good way. He needs thor taken away from him.

[@jeremiahemery9627]

The goats actually make sense bc in Norse mythology Thor actually DID have 2 pet goats(they didn't scream) that were basically immortal, he could butcher and eat them, but as long as he didn't break any bones they'd regenerate. But also Loki tricks someone into eating the marrow and made it so they couldn't heal correctly

I really liked it. It is not as good as Ragnarok, but fun none the less. The Jane story had me welling up. The fighting kids was my favorite part.

I rewatch this movie with you and i gotta say, i enjoyed a lot more the second time. The good stuff outweight the bad and silliest stuff for me. And i got the same reaction as Nikki. -Gorr was amazing, his scenes were the best -The Black and White scenes were awesome -I love the goats -The soundtrack, as a fan of Guns N' Roses, i like it! -Jane returning was something i didn't expect but i like her character much MUCH more in this one -The scenes of the kids charging againts the shadow creatures I just didn't like: -Characterization of Zeus -Korg, I feel like korg works better in smaller doses. -Some of the humor didn't stick the landing -Gorr needed more scenes. But all in all, i was entertained, i would say this movie works better if you are a fan of the humor.

I think Zeus makes a lot of sense honestly. He's not done shit that we know about for 2500 years and he's decadent and oblivious really fits the Greek gods as compared with the Norse ones. They are the cause of so many damn problems cause of their sexual transgressions and everything else and never help when they need it.

[@HeadGodoftheGodCouncil]

I just didn't like: -Characterization of Zeus -Korg, I feel like korg works better in smaller doses. -Some of the humor didn't stick the landing -Gorr needed more scenes. -Zeus was good. I did like they got much of his comic parts in it, while still changing him enough to fit LA -Korg's dynamic with Thor is the best thing in the MCU besides Loki and Thanos -Totally -Gorr was amazing and needed more scenes. Which the movie was at least half an hour longer to get more of a backstory for Gorr and more of him actually butcher gods

[@jasonweible2834]

The two goats, Toothgnasher and Toothgrinder, are actually from Norse mythology and sometimes showed up in the Thor comics. The yelling comes from the meme and was definitely overdone. Normally the goats pull Thor's chariot but I love the concept of them pulling the boat. I love that whole concept. I also hate how stupid they made Thor. Actually all of them seemed a bit of off from their established characters.

[@slayerbot1394]

[@deathninja16]

The inspiration from the creatures was taken from all of the children that were starring in the movie The Producers and director asked the children to draw what monsters they see is super scary and then the visual editors just took what they drew and made it into what you see on the screen.

[@ZarrarAAli]

The way Stevens face changed at 27:30 just kills me. He was so over the goats!

[@44r0n-9]

It's so weird, usually I really dislike Taika Waititi stuff and I also didn't like Ragnarok all that much because I thought it made Thor too ridiculous. But now with this one and hearing all the mediocre reactions I was fully expecting to hate it, and I honestly thought it was very solid. I came to expect the over the top "funny" shit that Taika does and it kinda worked for me here, especially because they also head really heavy undertones all the way through. Was pleasantly surprised!

[@coals6262]

Yeah I didn’t enjoy Ragnerok either as far as Thors character development. I feel it put him in Thor 1 type ego again & dumbed him down sort of like he regressed as a character. The last chunk of this movie (and many other parts) especially with him asking Gorr why would he spend his finale moments with him when he could spend it with Jane felt more in line with his pre-ragnerok development while still keeping a good balance of his humor as well.

[@jinxie712]

The kids thing was kinda like SHAZAM. And I think they could fight the same way Jane could. The power of Thor means his fighting abilities, also.

No the cosmic gods like Eternity are not bullshit...its just the way the film is directed and written. But Eternity is pretty comic book accurate.

[@daddydman81]

As I'm listening to you comment about the lack of seriousness of Thor... keep in mind what Thor has been through! The evolution of his character, being egotistic everything up to Infinity War, when he got the reality check with the slaying of his Brother, dealing with the loss of his parents, the breakup with Jane, he basically resort himself to only save the Universe, and he didn't care much about anything else. Then he failed that, allowing Thanos to snap, and all the depression he went through getting heavy, even though he had something to do with the end of Thanos in Endgame... after all that, he resolved to only save the universe from bad guys... and so you see him at the beginning of this movie, and.... "he's bored!!" He stopped caring, and he stopped taking anything seriously! He was relaxed on a tree during a war and Peter had to beg him to help, so he gets up and shows off killing everyone in the most careless possible way... but eventually destroyed the temple of the people, and he was like... oops, oh well. he just didn't care! So all his stupidity, humor, and lack luster, half ass attitude, was because he was coming out of that "i don't care" personality, and suddenly thrust into a role he truly cared about... not only Jane, but his people, Asgard, and their children! That's my take on why Thor was acting like such a "Moron" as you guys put it. Thor has always been one of my favorite characters. I've always loved Lightning shows growing up, so naturally I loved watching Thor fight his most epic battles with Lightning and Thunder!

[@paulmartinez51]

Stevens reaction to the goats is hilarious!!!

[@northwind2538]

I'm still on the fence with this movie. Thor is essentially a caricature of himself now and I get wanting to make him comical but they straight up made him stupid. Gorr is the "God Butcher" yet we only see him kill one god onscreen. Criminal underuse of Christian Bale. Someone said that maybe this movie is so outlandish because it's a story being told directly by Korg but I still don't think that justifies how ridiculous it is to pour beer on an axe that 'feels' like you're cheating on it with a hammer.

[@congeries8311]

You should rly watch taikas series "Our Flag means death". There he achieves the PERFECT balance between good storytelling, humor and character delevopment. It's fantastic and totally underrated.
