Beta ray bill is such a badass he needs more than one godly weapon

[@shypeoplearehawt8155]

2:06 I hope that when he's introduced into the MCU officially that they give him this physical body look right here. Where he's able to have his mouth covered up with teeth. Cuz Don't get me wrong I like the character. However, the teeth exposure is kinda unsettling

[@Marb315]

Beta Ray Bill declaring war on Galactus and winning will forever be one of raddest things in Marvel comics

My favorite bill moment is on the avengers cartoon. When Bill gives Sif an example of what mortals can be.

My favorite Beta Ray Bill moment was in planet Hulk the movie. He and Thor took down the Kronans and later he fought Hulk in Sakaar. Plus he freed all the slaves with a blast from Stormbreaker.

[@Urd-Vidan]

@@robertrowley4929 I love that, even though he took one hell of a beating from Hulk, Bill didn't fight Hulk off and even sends his regards to him, because he know Hulk is just hulking out.

when thor was first released i always wanted Beta Ray Bill to be in it, i thought itd make such a great story.

[@xXLoneSoulXx]

I think there was a statue of him in a cameo on one of these movies

[@Majestros]

They should make him a lesbian

[@Taz_Devion]

Beta Ray Bill is my favorite character ever, and I love that he gained the Twilight Sword, for the fact it fits his character more due to him essentially now having all of the powers of Surtur similar to how Stormbreaker imbued the powers of Thor within Beta Ray Bill. I also like the history of it, seeing as the cause of the Burning galaxy to fall was Surtur using it to forge the Twilight Sword. And how Stormbreaker was lost feels very in place with his character, and in Argent Star it touched on how Bill felt that he was too reliant on the hammer to give him strength, it was as if gaining the Twilight Sword was a return to his roots, as he had to fight Surtur in a similar manner as he fought Thor. But with this trail by combat he didn't have an upper hand as when he fought Thor on a fiery battlefield where his korbinite Physiology aided him, he was facing Surtur in his own plane. And gaining it and then using it to execute Surtur felt like the perfect severing of its connection to the end of his species and the past, making it his own.

[@keneunaegbu851]

Beautifully put 👏

Dont want to spoil love and thunder for anyone. Even if he doesn't appear lady siff actress Jamie Alexander hinted in a recent post. " would any one like a Lady Siff Disney + series , who would you like to see ". She went on to say "personally I'd like to see beta ray bill" personally myself I'd absolutely love to see a siff and beta ray bill series.

[@flimflammer2395]

I think that's a very bold assumption to say we'll get Beta Ray in a future Marvel film just because of the statue in Ragnarok. Using that logic, we're equally likely to get Bi-Beast. As much as I hope we get Bill, it wouldn't surprise me if we've already seen as much as we're ever gonna see of him in the MCU

[@sweetgherkinz]

12:46 whoa that art piece is cooool

[@EdeDizon]

one of the coolest characters yet to make an in-person appearance in the MCU

[@BibgyBC]

Can I just say? Bill looks more badass wielding a sword, than an axe-hammer

[@Mikeike9]

Been wanting to see Beta Bay Rill on the big screen since the first Thor. But I’m glad they haven’t used him, they would have definitely nerfed him.

[@misterelom]

Taika Waititi probably would've made him a comedic character the same way they did Korg in Ragnarok. Would love to see Bill on the big screen but he needs to be done right.

[@quentinfogger5755]

Apart from Mjolnir and Stormbreaker, which do you think is the best weapon Beta-Ray-Bill has used in the Comics? What would happen if he was riding a horse since his face looks like a horse?

[@herosjourney8725]

the sword(s)

If we were to get Beta Ray Bill in live action or another medium, I would want Keith David to be his voice actor.

Beta Ray Bill deserves more to have his own movie or TV Show.

In Avengers Infinity War, What would have happened if Thor made himself Jarnbjorn to defeat Thanos so that Beta-Ray-Bill could have been the one to wield Storm breaker? Do you think Thor would pass the axe to Beta-Ray-Bill?

Actually Knull has a high chance of appearing again soon because of Gorr considering The post credits scene of Spider Man No Way Home with a piece of the Sony venom symbiote getting left behind it's highly likely Knull will be the next phase 5 villain

Idk about that. If they plan on having an overarching story with symbiotes and Knull, they’d have to work with Sony which Disney may not like. They may be okay with just their current Spidey deal

I could have sworn that Beta Ray vs Thor (no powers) went on for days.. ending in a W for Beta Ray. Then Beta Ray took Thor back to Asgard to Odin, & Odin was shocked of the outcome & said "I can't give you my sons Hammer but I'll wield you another weapon" aka Stormbraker Then they become a bad ass tag team. I was 99.9% sure that, that was the origin.. lol

I would like if there was a Beta Ray Bill series where he is seen protecting his people which would lead him to meet Thor, fight against him, fight with him against some monsters that are the reason for his home’s destruction (definitely gotta change the Surtur part) before leaving and getting Stormbreaker as a gift
