The choir singing when Matt Damon Loki dies cracks me up every time.
Me too 😂😂
Jimmy Kimmel: YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!
Also, the guy playing Thor in that play is Chris Hemsworth's brother, IIRC, which I find hilarious.
My favorite part is when the guy playing Odin takes off his eye patch when Loki reveals himself.
Such a good bit😂 and the fact that it’s the same music during that actual scene in the Dark World
“Heimdall and Loki were my favorite characters” *starts sweating*
The definition of
"Oh no..."
Why must you hurt me in this way😭
Infinity War: *Worried Heavy laugh*
Loki is the strongest now😂
I love how much Jen seems to like Heimdall. He never does much, but every time he's on screen he's being a complete badass, and is basically the definition of "lawful good". It's nice to see a side character getting so much love.
Which is also super ironic considering Jen prefer the villains and likes them the best. Will be interesting to see if she'll love or hate Thanos after Infinity War, haha.
Jen needs to see Pacific Rim then :)
Heimdall has always been my favourite. I've never been able to put my finger on why, but I think your description of him sums it up best.
@Leonardo Santuario well its not the best, but its way far from trash. second one is much closer to trash btw.
@@mojeimja Agreed
Korg’s revolution failed because he didn’t print enough pamphlets… so basically paper defeated rock…
The rock paper 🗞️ scrissors joke lol 🤣🤣
And he broke Meek's exoskeleton by stepping on him, so rock actually beat scissors.
We’re just missing a scissors beating paper joke in this movie then this movie would’ve been written perfectly in my opinion.
O dammmmn
@@scottmcintyre2809 Holy shitttt
Its always great to see someone actually surprised that the Hulk is in Thor Ragnarok
And doc- oh wait
Shit
This film is the reason I don’t watch trailers anymore. I don’t want to know anything going into films I already know I’m gonna watch. It’s makes everything so much more surprising and enjoyable
@@MsStrongshot legit haven't been watching any news on Spider-Man because I don't want any spoilers on the story but TH-cam is spamming my feed with plot leaks.
@@MsStrongshot I guess seeing it in the film after watching the trailer would be less surprising. But I get the same surprise and thrill from seeing them appear in the trailer and it gets me excited for the movie to know they appear. However I understand why a lot of people would rather avoid the trailer so they can be surprised during their viewing of the actual movie.
@@claycrews516 don’t get me wrong, this is still one of my favourite movies, and the moment still hit really strong. Some trailers give away the whole plot though which is why I’ve stopped watching them (the movie with the invisible dude stalking someone comes to mind) but each to their own :)
Just a quick comment about Hulk's personality in this movie: I can't remember where I saw it, maybe in a DVD featurette but they explained that the idea was that he has been conscious now for two years, so he had developed a toddler-like brain that is 2-3 years old, and that is why he speaks and acts like a toddler in this movie.
I figured that’s what they were going for.
That’s great and all, but it sucks and completely destroys the character of the green raging monster
@@jameshowlett3709 Unpopular opiniom but i like that way, Hulk got more personality instead of just raging monster that punch hard
@@danielruiz8259 I like that Hulk has personlity I just wish they did a movie about him that goes more into his character like why don't Universal and Marvel make a deal like the Sony one ? I want another hulk movie lol bruce has no character for me jsut Hulk gets developed
@@danielruiz8259 same here l like him better with a personality, the rage monster part got boring to me
The way I always think about Thors personality shift is that he's spending more time on earth with the avengers are starts picking up these mannerisms.
OMG YESSS THANKYOU
I still think he's way too flippant for all the terrible things that are happening to him. Thor finds out his father was an evil warlord just before he dies, his friends are slaughtered, he loses his hammer etc., but these events barely phase him at all. The comedic tone feels so jarring and inappropriate for how dark the story is on paper. Infinity War did a much better job of making Thor serious again with just the right amount of levity.
@@SolarDragon007 Still does make sense for him to act this way. He’s becoming what he wants not what he’s supposed to be
@@masterofthechimichangas1306 How does it make sense? How does it make sense for someone to not be at all affected by his family and friends dying? That's not "not becoming what he's supposed to", that's just tone deaf. Can you imagine if Black Panther or Captain America acted this way when they went through similar trauma?
@@SolarDragon007 He was sad when his Dad died and when Asgard was destroyed. I don’t think you’re understanding what I even said.
Ragnarok by far is my favorite funniest MCU movie. I loved it so much I bought a Thor figure.
Infinity War is funniest in my opinion
Honestly, I really hate this movie. It ruined Thor and his whole mythology for me by turning everything into a stupid joke. The Ragnarok storyline could've made for a great, epic movie, but they totally destroy it. Thor's friends die, his father dies, his hammer is destroyed, his eye is ripped out and his home is destroyed, but I don't feel any of the emotion because of how overboard they go with the humor. Even Guardians of the Galaxy knew when to take itself seriously.
@@SolarDragon007 he goes humorous because he's trying to hide his pain. You can see that pretty plainly in infinity war
@@Howzieky I know, that's what I'm trying to point out. Infinity War succeeds in portraying Thor's sense of humor as a coping mechanism, but Ragnarok does not. In Infinity War, you get the sense that he's still grieving and suffering from the trauma of what happened, but in Ragnarok, it just comes off like an excuse for dumb jokes. It would've made more sense if he was serious/determined in Ragnarok, (since the stakes are so high), but then used levity in IW to cope with all the losses he suffered.
@@SolarDragon007 exactly.
It's genuinely impressive Jen hasn't seen any spoilers without actively avoiding them, and even then, it's hard.
Not really if you arent a fan of something you generally don't retain any knowledge of it even if you happen to come across it. I mean for example are you a basketball fan? Do you know the NBA playoffs are going on? Another example, I'm not a huge baseball fan, but sometimes I enjoy watching it, but apparently the season is almost halfway done and I just became aware of it yesterday lol. I even have my state's team twitter followed, so I just didn't retain the knowledge despite scrolling past their feeds because it didn't interest me at the time.
MCU may be hugely popular, but compared to how many people there are on Earth ... the vast majority aren't even interested. So in conclusion I bet she has seen spoilers at some point, depending on what she follows and reads, but just never retained the knowledge therefore has no memory of them.
@@bigmoviegamer1037 That's the power of google tracking your searches and customizing ads and news sites for you.
I’m guessing because she didn’t care. She may have seen things but just would have forgotten them as soon as she saw them. My wife was the same. She had no idea hulk was in this movie, didn’t know spiderman was in civil war and didn’t even know what captain America looked like until we watched them all last year haha
I mean let’s be real she probably had seen some but didn’t know what it was when she saw it so doesn’t even know she’s seen spoilers😂
@@joeyjeffrey5892 not everyone is fucking obsessed with marvel lol. not everyone cared about it when it was in theatres.
"Hella is very one-dimensional."
That's exactly what Odin wanted her to be. And that's exactly why she got locked up when Odin started wanting to look good.
Of course she’s one-dimensional; the character is the ultimate sociopath. I can’t believe she thought Cate Blanchett was “okay.” 🙄
I’m glad that she likes Loki and Heimdall, she’ll be really excited to see what’s done with their characters in Infinity War!

@@neptunemedia8746 yeeeeeea *insert Houston, we've got a problem* lol
One thing that people don't realize is that when Thor throws his hammer at Hela, he's not forcing it toward her and she's holding it back. The initial throw, yes, but after that, Thor's trying to bring the hammer back, and she's holding onto it.
In the previous scene with Loki, Thor sais that there's nothing that can stop Mjolnir from returning to his hand. It's foreshadowing for Hela. You can even see the strap of the hammer pointing toward Thor as if it's pulling back to him.
I think that's clever.
That's most of why he says, "that's not possible". He knows she's hanging onto the hammer.
@@canadian__ninja Yes, that's what I said. Most people think she's stopping it from hitting her, but in actuality she's stopping it from returning to Thor.
Thor: Wait, Asgard is a people?
Odin: Always has been.
Except for when Hella draw her strenght from it. Then it's definitely a place...
24:17
@@thehoogard he meant that it doesn't really matter if the people are living on the physical place known as asgard as long as there are still asgardians gathered in one place. of course thanos was like "lol fuck that lmao" anyway
@@dankerbell I know what he meant. I'm just pointing out the inconsistency that Hella seems to be drawing strength from the actual physical place.
@@thehoogard SOLUTION: kill the people and destroy Asgard just to be safe
I like how they do like a before the movie interview while they are getting snacks in the kitchen 🤣🤩
Fun fact: the music the women sang when Matt Damon's Loki "died" on the play is the exact track that played when Thor was in grief for him in the second movie.
And the music in the background of Frigga's funeral
Yeaaaah one of my favourite MCU movies. Ragnarok just pulled the comedy / seriousness and colourfulness to bleakness with great balance imo
just like every other Taika Waititi film.
i wont say great balance ... it was too cheesy and less grounded or serious.... which i thought it should be at some place
@@RatedEforExclusive taika is a brilliant director
I'd like this movie more but most things that happened in this movie was undone by Infinity War and Endgame.
@@BalbirYaduvanshi07 I agree. It was wayy to heavy on the comedy. There was no real emotional weight to anything. Even Odin's death felt emotionless. It was just "Yea im proud, but you have a sister to kill, so bye"
“ I have been falling for thirty minutes!”
(Also released this on Loki day! Nice;)
It’s got a small call back to that scene
Hela: Want to know what real power looks like?
TH-cam: cut to Friends Reunion add.
When they offered YT red and then premium I took it immediately. I was so sick of political ads and just ads. Now it’s been 5 years and no ads. My life has been improved. It feels like how YT felt at the start. And I get background play 🤷🏾♂️👍🏾😂

During the mid credits scene:
Jen: what the hell is that?
Holden: *shrugs* who's to say.
Holden's complete indifference to Jen's confusion has me rolling every single time
I love the face she pulls every time he's like "I really can't say.. Who's to say... Everyone has a bad day etc" You can tell she's plotting about fifty different murder methods in her head.
I feel like he could have told her that was Thanos’ ship though. It would give her something to look forward to.
@@MrGeoff-iv6re I mean he could have but she's obviously invested by this point, and her reactions when he doesn't answer her are way more fun
Hulk has only been "alive"/in the hulk form for a few years if we combine the moments he turned into hulk, so he has the mental development of a child in that regard (which is why he can only say a few words and is always angry).
Now that he's been Hulk for multiple years on this planet, he's developed more, learning basic sentence structure and having a little more control over his emotions. Remember that Hulk is a different entity from Bruce Banner, so his knowledge or skills don't carry over to him.
That’s a great observation.
I actually had a theory that because of him actually experiencing life now, in Ragnarok, it influenced his decisions in Infinity War. But the directors have said it's something different, so oh well.
The longer he’s hulk the better of a fighter he’ll become, eventually he’d have Bruce’s brains and his strength instead of being nerfed to dr hulk in endgame
This is simply the Savage Hulk persona
It’s not a coincidence that Hulk ended up on Sakaar: it was literally Valkyrie’s job to find champions for the Grandmaster’s arena. Since Hulk knows her it’s implied that she tracked him down as she did Thor. Clearly Hulk was into the idea! Sakaar is a collection point for lost and broken things
You make it sound like the Island Of Misfit Toys in need of a dentist...
@@CaptainFrost32 that’s literally how it’s described in the movie
The 'coincidence' that Jen mentions isn't Hulk being on Sakaar, it's Thor landing on Sakaar and Hulk also being there. As in, 'that's convenient'!
@@baron6797 yeah well this a Universe where Ragnarok was predicted by the ‘real’ Norse Gods using magic who also live in space! You can forgive that but Hulk showing up on the same planet is too far??
"YES!!!! We know each other! He's a friend from work!" Lol!! Love that line!
I cracked up every time 🤣🤣
That line was improvised and that makes it even better
It was suggested to Chris Hemsworth by a make a wish kid who was visiting the set the day they were filming. Chris asked the child what he should say, and that’s how the amazing line was made. Truly an awesome story.
Something that this movie connected for me, personally, was the parallel between Hella's character and Thor's character from the first movie. When we first met Thor, he was a very one dimensional person. He was a god and a general/ warrior in his own right, and all he wanted to do with that power was conquer--pick fights, even. He saw his purpose or identity in fighting--and winning those fights. Knowing what we know now from Ragnarok, you could say that's why Odin did what he did. Instead of imprisoning Thor away like he did Hella (who embraced her most powerful trait as her sole purpose--wreaking death and destruction), Odin banished Thor in the hopes that he could save his son from the same fate as his first born (not that Odin wasn't culpable in his daughter's descent into crazy-town). I mean, that wasn't where the writers were going with it back in the first movie, but I think it makes a nice tie-in story and character development-wise. Another interesting thing is the affect that Thor has on the characters he meets in Ragnarok. Many of them are purposeless or have also fallen into a rut, relying on old habits or previous ways of thinking, etc. And Thor comes along and starts shaking things up, and the characters around him start shaking off their own...self-imposed exiles in a way, and start living again. Hella, however, is a lost cause because she chooses to be nothing other than power. She doesn't take a moment to step back or compromise or reflect--not really--so she cannot grow as a person and is, instead, merely a driving force. There's nothing else there to get to know because she's whittled her own self down to nothing for the sake of merely having an identity of what she views as her strongest form.
Love this, really well put!
Nah, Thor wasn't one dimensional. He was accurate to the comics in terms of his personality/characterization. Until Ragnarok ruined him.
Superman and Captain America
Both these characters suck.

i thought he would've just told her since a lot of us guessed/knew at the time but nope
You've got to realize that many of the wormholes lead to Sakaar, so them both ending up there is actually more likely than you'd think.
The Hulk probably didn't end up crashing in Sakaar, Valkyrie is the one who brought Hulk there
Yeah it’s where lost things go so it makes sense that hulk would be there.
Most couches are connected to Sakaar.

I love how you can tell which scenes were improvised. The snake story that Thor told. You can see everyone trying hard not to laugh. The Revengers lines, the raging fire vs smoldering fire. Great stuff.
People keep saying Thor getting electrocuted is dumb, but from what I know, your veins don't pop up when you're getting shock. He's actually getting paralyzed.
Taiki said it was like a neurotoxin
@@Rushking20 yea lol I thought it was obvious. Electricity doesn't turn your veins purple
It's called the obedience disk from the comics, it shuts down you're nerve system.
@@thatginger6839 holden definitely knows this guess he decided to play dumb also calling them gods in the mcu when they said they aren’t
Why didn't they paralyze Thanos?
Why do people make such a big point about Thor being “different” - it’s called character development - he’s not walking around as an English dandy, twirling a moustache, he’s just more comedic.
You can see the same character that was in the first two films, but then take into account he’s spent a lot of time on earth with the avengers, & has probably just lightened up. I’m sure Iron Man would rub off on anyone after enough time.
Honestly I like this turn they did on the character. He was rather boring and bare bones at first. They made a better choice making him more comedic. If they didn't make him more comedic then I'm sure people would've been very bored the hell out of. And besides he was slightly comedic in Thor, TTDW, AAOU, and the first Avengers movie. He got more comedic through out the movies. And I'm glad they made him more interesting instead of just making him a serious person all the time.
Hela's "ragged goth" look when she first appears might just be the hottest Cate Blanchett has ever looked, and that's a high bar to clear.
Hell, yeah.
Agreed
And Galadriel her most elegant, ethereal even
Straight out of the gate, Thor is stronger, however, Hulk's strength is tied to his anger. The angrier he get the stronger he becomes. So no one really knows how strong Hulk can become.
No. That isn't how hulks powers are in the MCU.

Hulk took the quinjet and was sucked into one of the wormholes, which leads to Sakaar.
I always thought Valkyrie tracked him down, as it was her job to go get champions for Grandmaster. I always imagined he crashed some where and word got around the galaxy of this unstoppable beast and she went and picked him up.
@@Etticos. I like that idea, it sounds just as plausible, and as far as I know, there is nothing in the MCU that doesn't say that couldn't have been what happened. Comic-wise, I'm not knowledgeable at all though.
knowing that this movie was 80% improv showed how funny the actors are and how well they understand their respective characters. loved Ragnarok :D
Don't know if its already been said but Thors line, "We know eachother. He's a friend from work." wasn't originally in the script but as Chris mentioned on Kimmel show, there was a Make A Wish kid on set that day and he suggested that line and it was great so they kept it.

It’s not quite just coincidental that Hulk ended up on Sakaar, there are tons of wormholes that lead to Sakaar, so it’s a little higher odds than coincidence. But that being said still very unlikely 😂
They also imply that most/all lost things end up on Sakaar.
Coincidence is when 2 related things strangely happen. You're mentioning 1 thing. Jen's 'coincidence' is about Thor landing up on Sakaar AND hulk being there. Coincidence
@@baron6797 well, yes, if you strip away all underlying meaning and go purely based on vocabulary logic and definitions of words. But when she asks “he just coincidentally ended up there?” There is a clear underlying assumption that she is meaning the coincidence is purely by chance, as opposed to some explanation as to how this coincidence happened.
What I remember from the trailers is that the sequence with Hela shattering the hammer was in what looked like an alleyway. They moved it to Norway in post production, which makes me wonder how the scene with Odin staring off across the ocean (and Thor later having visions of him) would have originally gone down.
I've heard two stories: one that originally Odin had just been thrown out of the care home when it closed cause they couldn't find his family, they found him living as a bum in New York and Loki had to restore his memories, and one where that scene was never going to be in New York and the ally was always a fake out to play into Thor being in New York in the trailers and the Dr. Strange post-credit scene.
I personally prefer the latter story there. That scene is almost undoubtedly a huge part of why Loki straightened up, overall, in this movie. He'd felt like Odin saw him as unworthy of being his heir ever since he'd found out he was actually Laufy's son (and even before to an extent), as expressed in the first movie when he was shouting about how Odin couldn't have a frost giant on the throne of Asgard, but the fact that Odin broke out of his enchantments and *chose* to stay on Earth, knowing that Loki was on the throne in is absence, probably told Loki everything he needed to know in terms of how Odin really felt about him as a possible successor.

@@adhi8thyan arent you afraid she is going to read your comment or you dont care if she does? This isnt meant as an attack, just curious
@@adhi8thyan pls delete thx
@@adhi8thyan f u. Delete this. Little man feel great by spoiling things
Just means Holden shouldn’t let her google the fan art
I was floored by that brief awesome scene of Loki fighting on the bridge. So impressive and so cool!
Always been disappointed that I couldn’t see Jen’s reaction. I’ve replayed it many times.
Why anyone would think Skurge was trying to save himself at the end is beyond me. He deliberately went to his death to protect Asgardians - and it’s clear he was pivotal to their escape.
If he’d wanted to save himself, that was about the stupidest possible way to try to pull it off.
Just wondering if you're considering a watch-a-long when Jen gets to Infinity War/Endgame or if that would be too big of a project to do again.
Definitely would be interested in a watchalong!
Oh please do
YESS
Definitely
It’s funny how she says they must have sown Hella into the suit and the suit was mostly CGI. You really can’t tell the difference at this point.
The hair too, and in some scenes the entire body. look in youtube for ragnarok bloopers
They teased Beta Ray Bill in here too, with his statue as one of the "Champions". He's kind of a big deal.
In comics, he defeated Thor in a 1v1 battle to the death, but refused to kill Thor. Odin was so impressed, he gifted Beta Ray with Mjolnir (because worthy) and gave Thor another weapon instead ...which will go nameless right now. Beta Ray Bill and Adam Worlock still on team "hinted but MIA".
The child like is for a reason. Hulk is a whole another conscious. He's been out for 2 years so he's basically learned more and like a 2 year old, starts showing what he knows. Hulk was just getting better. Then got ruined, but I'm not discussing that lol
Most anticipated after IW and endgame
Black Panther
Civil War
The "friend from work" line was suggested by a Make a Wish kid that was visiting the set!
I think Cate Blanchett's performance as Hela was incredible. Honestly one of my favorite renditions of a character. They just didn't give her anything interesting to do. The typical thin villain. Not entirely a waste, but they really should have recognized what they had there and done something big with it. One of those things where you just bring someone in to do a role, but realize they're absolutely killing it and change up the plan to bring it front and center. They brought her in to do the role, and were like "huh... she's really good. Oh well. Next!"
One of my favorite funny scenes was the play with cameos by Sam Neill, Luke Hemsworth, and Matt Damon playing Odin, Thor, and Loki, respectively.
I feel like Jen after she gets caught up on the mcu having to wait for these amazing videos!
24:26 nice one, lovely editing touch lmao
Aside from that, I love this movie, I think the dialogue and the chemistry among the characters is its strongest point. Everyone goes through a meaningful arc in the movie. Plus the story is awsome and very impactful. Oh and Korg is a cherry on top, chef’s kiss. The only downside is I think Hela, she was just kinda there, I agree with the points you two made. Overall I’d give it an 8.5/10. It would be a 9, but the *ehm* certain other movies would have to be like 11 or 12s. Way to go Taika Waititi!
Fun Fact : The Wolf Fenris and Hel the Goddess of Death were actually Loki's children in Norse
Also in the comic books
its worth mentioning that sakaar is essentially explained as being the place where lost things eventually end up. theres portals all over the place that just lead to sakaar, thats how hulk eventually found his way there. he went wandering through space on the quinjet and eventually just found himself crashing on sakaar.
This might be my favorite mcu movie ever tbh. Top 5 for sure
In my top 10 definitely
Top three of all time for me personally. I can watch it anyday and enjoy myself with it. This movie is so much fun. Love it.
I love hela's motivation in this movie She was responsible for the creation of Asguard as the way you know it And she wasn't given any credit They completely erased her from history. Odin is kind of a shitty father he used her and then betrayed her.
In Loki's 'play', the other hemsworth brother is playing thor lol.
Also, do you think Thor's mug of beer refilling is a reference to when he goes to Utgard in the myths and is challenged to chug a drinking horn, but the horn is actually connected to the sea, or am i just looking into it too much?
Its mythology. Of course Thor has many siblings and half siblings
Hulk did not land in Sakaar just by coincident, his quinjet went missing and Sakkar is the land of all missing in the universe
Can’t wait until Jen starts watching the Loki series!
I remember around this time where we were with Matt on this movie,it was maybe a ,year but still nostalgic
4:24
Ragnarok is the prophesized apocalypse by the vikings. It's supposed to play out as the final battle between the gods and the giants. Sworn enemies would end up killing eachother, such as Thor and Jörmungandr(the midgard serpent), Loki and Heimdall, and Vidar and Fenrir. Surtr, the king of Muspelheim and the fire giants(as seen here) would end the battle by plunging his sword deep into the earth and set fire to the entire universe, for it to go dark and be reborn
I love watching the "My Girlfriend Watches" episodes because you both bring great insights, as a person rewatching the movies (Holden) and as a first time watcher (Jen). Holden your facial expressions / eye moves to the camera when Jen says something, or something in the movie foreshadows a future event are awesome and make me chuckle. And finally you include enough of the actual movie footage to catch me up on the movie and it's like I'm rewatching them again along with you. Thank you for allowing us to share in your movie viewings.
Omg next is black panther I can’t wait yall are really gonna enjoy watching our king 🥺
RIP
@John Spartan hell nah I go hard for my fav always.... Yibambe
I couldn’t get into the movie. I thought the movie was very boring.
They should have recasted him for bp2
@@MoviesAndTvShowsAreSubjective you don't want to see Suri Sue kick ass!?! #girlpower #definitelynotanannoyingbitch
After "loosing Matt" for a while, some of us now survive through Jen0s gasps...
Jen, fun fact, on the play about Loki's death in Asgard, thor was played by the third Hemsworth brother, Luke, and Odin was played by Sam Neil.
My favorite Thor film and one of my top 5 favorite mcu films overall. Great content! 🙏🏻
Jen: I love Loki, I wish to see more of him
Me: Oh no! Anyway
Holden are you going to show her the MCU short films? Like the Peggy carter short, Item 47, and the Phil coulson one?
He should do the short films and the Peggy Carter series
During the press run for the movie. Ruffalo explained that Hulk had the mind of an infant in the previous films bc he didn't have time to develop. Bruce would turn into Hulk for 10, 20, 30 minutes then go back for days, weeks, months on end. Hulk being himself for 2+ years helped that part of his brain develop, and as we saw, that allowed him to evolve into more of a toddler in this film.
Thor is funniest when he’s being serious and everyone is reacting to him. Like in the first movie when he asks for another drink or asking for a pet big enough to ride
This is the hardest I’ve seen Holden laugh 😂 23:15
It can be cool if you two will do a trailer reaction to infinity war before you watch the movie because personally I remember the trailer being such a big deal
Her saying that Loki & Heimdall are her favs… I can’t wait to see her reaction for the next movies
I actually want a full-length version of the copyright-proof Immigrant Song.
Ahahahaha I threw so many dopplers and modulators on that!
Jen: I’m love Heimdoll and Loki
Me: I’m sorry little one
“You’ll always be the god of mischief, but you could be more”
Oh how right that would become
The idea behind Hulk in this is supposed to be his intellectual evolution...which he has progressively through each outing. He goes from raging monster hellbent on destruction, to having a bit more sensibility and can now carry on entire conversations. He went from being able to say one liners to full on talking. Kinda like how children progress when they learn to speak. Since Hulk hasn't had any other solo movies since 2008...this was Marvel's way of giving him his own story arc within other films.
morphing time saying and edit was perfect
16:06 that is actually Asgard theme from Stargate SG-1 show. The same composer worked on both projects.
I've seen this movie so many times and the choir singing when Loki (Matt Damon) dies still gets me every time
Let’s a go!
Best Thor movie. Hopefully we get more of this in love and thunder with the mighty thor with Jane Foster.
