- Avengers Earths Mightiest Heroes really went out of their way to get the characters right and they did my boy Thor justice. This show balances his arrogance with his humility and his need too protect the people of earth. It allows him to be humorous and serious in tandem while keeping him unique. Anyways enough rambling I hope you all enjoy this video.

Odin: Mere mortals?
Thor: There is nothing "mere" about these mortals.
DC reference?
@@axolotlartist1092
Yes!
Lex Luther: You can’t even handle a mere mortal in a Halloween costume.
Joker: there is nothing mere about that mortal
Thor says that to Loki about Banner in Hulk vs Thor
I had the exact same thought!
Earth’s Mightiest Heroes’ Thor has got to be top 5 incarnation of the character. This is how MCU Thor should’ve been portrayed, a Demi-God mixed between his love for both Asgard and Earth.
Instead, the MCU gave us an "alien life-form from another planet" that uses super advanced science instead of ancient magic
Feels more like a weird Nordic person with an ego then an actual other worldly being
@@SilverScribe85Right and the crazy thing is, I actually liked MCU Thor’s early portrayals, but sadly it all just dwindled away and he ended up as a Viking Guy from another planet who ended up obsessing over Earth.
@@WolfbroaExactly! With Thor, he should’ve arrived on Earth in a confused, but humbled manner and trying to get a feel of the world rather than immediately going “WHERE IS MY HAMMER?!”
@@DougieYT Not only that but the MCU took away his poetic dialogue
I think part of the reason Thor was so willing to work alongside others is because he does it fairly often in Asgard. There he battles alongside other honorable warriors, so the warriors of Midgard aren't all that different, even if he does view them as weaker. Warriors stand up to defend their home and he respects that
Particularly Captain America. Like that time where Cap recently thawed out and started attacking everyone until he realized where and when he was. "He will not listen. He is a warrior." Thor knew less about this mysterious glacier-man than even public schoolchildren, and yet he could tell from even the briefest engagement that Cap doesn't give up. And while this was more intended as a Cap moment, I like that _Thor_ was the one to recognize a fellow warrior, someone wholly unlike the rest of the STEM-powered civilians that made up the founding Avengers.
Come to think of it, both are stalwart warriors, legends of their culture, defenders of their homelands, fighting by throwing nearly indestructible weapons made of space metal that always return to sender, and yet both are relics of different eras displaced in the present. It amazes me that more writers don't really dig into those parallels, instead going for the Past Man vs Future Man thing with Iron Man for the thousandth time.
@draketheduelist I loved the two parter in Asgard. So cool to actually see Asgard and the 9 realms explored, since often they're just ignored or briefly mentioned/shown. Loved Cap meeting Hela. Very interesting moment!
I think Thor might respect Midgardians a bit more because they're physically weaker yet still fight against strong opponents.
This Thir fascinates me because he will try to take on foes by himself since he IS A LITERAL GOD, but he's always willing to accept help when its offered.
And hes doing both of these things donto a genuine desire to protect earth
Basically he's an Actual Viking god.
@@arnowisp6244maybe except the fact that thor isn't like that in the mythos
“Why can’t it be me” is so real
Amora was so hot I kind of wish thor had stayed with her. Living vicariously
"It should've been me! Not him!"
@@AndreNitroX Which is particularly sad given that, if you just assume the series stops after Season 2, Amora never breaks free of Surtr. "Begone, thot" indeed...
@@draketheduelist yes i always felt bad for her
@@AndreNitroX same, would've loved to have seen more of a redemption like what was teased in Hulk vs Thor
15:06 “Tis some kind of…some kind of…That is a really large head.” I love that line 😂😂😂
15:21 "Like a frost giant's head on an infant's body"
@@tanaka173 AHHAHAHAHAHAH
Unlike the MCU, this show made Modok a threat but also the target of multiple jokes
@@AndreNitroX "I am science! I AM GENIUS!" (*Mjolnir*)
Or how about the time Hawkeye shot that shock arrow right at MODOK's forehead and MODOK's arms were too stubby to reach it. Knowing Clint, he probably did that on purpose.
@@draketheduelist LOL yes, but those jokes were intentional unlike cgi tv face modok
This is easily my favorite Thor. He has the big speech and imposing presence of comic Thor and is still funny but not just comic relief. His dynamics with all the other characters are great, and his voice fit perfectly. This show also has the best Loki.
Well done.
Season 2 had the explicit goal of showing that Thor was a much heavier hitter, because the showrunners recognised that he was a little weaker than he should. Alas, this means he can show up less...
I do appreciate that Thor is always shown to be the one to willingly take it on the chin. HisThrowing back the shot from Kang;s Flagship is a major highlight of the show for me.
However, my absolute favourite moment of his is when he defeats absorbing man in gamma world.
"It was foolish of you to take on Mjolnir's essence..."
I really love this version of Thor, my favorite Thor's episode in this series is season 2 episode 15 Powerless, the lesson Thor learn in that episode is inspiring, whenever I feel hopeless and want to committee some dangerous act, I will always think of the line Thor quote: "So long as there is life, there is always hope."
Well said that line is inspiring
Calling him weak, did you forget about the time he outright just...defeats the Cree army? With the extremely hard line along the lines of "Your army was found wanting!"
It was joke 💀
Objectively speaking, it wasn't. You said it in a very straightforward normal way as criticism. There wasn't a hint of you joking.
You screwed up. Owe up to it.
Only T ‘challa and wasp remain
That woman trying to get out of her car while Thor and Jane flirt. 😂😂😂
41:58 "they get longer and longer"
I see that as absolute win
Agreed these are my favorite versions of these marvel characters and I enjoy listening to character studies on them. Despite the more cartoonish design these characters were more real than the actual live action versions
RICK D. WASSERMAN 🤝🏾 TRAVUS WILLINGHAM
Playing PERFECTLY both Hulk & Thor
Besides the points you mention, another aspect of EMH Thor I really like is his relationship with Jane Foster. Glad the creators went with the paramedic version of Jane rather than her being Astrophysicist like in the MCU, since it creates a contrast between the couple: While Thor is a warrior who always solve problems by punching the bad guys, Jane is a paramedic, seeking to help and heal people. Makes sense that she would be the one to connect Thor to humanity and play a role in his growth from arrogant warrior to a humble hero.
Too bad this series couldn't show more of their relationship moving forward. It would be very cool if there was an episode where Thor and Jane, somehow, switch roles, with her becoming the Mighty Thor (allowing her to experiece what is like to be a warrior) while Thor becomes Doctor Donald Blake (allowing him to experience the life a of doctor and deal with the responsability of taking care of his patients).
I like the contrast of these two, and I enjoy the thought of this version of Jane becoming mighty Thor for a hot minute
Personally not a fan of that idea and am glad the show never went that route or had any plans for Jane taking his powers. Not every love interest needs to be super nor was I ever a fan of her taking mjolnir in any capacity
@@LegendXD00 I prefer Jane as just normal human (that's what made Thor fell in love for her, the fact she's badass despite not having special abilites) but I wouldn't mind if she at least got one episode to be a godness of thunder, allowing her to see from Thor perspective, meanwhile Odison could experience the life as mortal and see things from Jane perspective, making the two have better understanding of each others lifes.
@@alexandrefrauches132 Yeah you already said that in your first response lol that’s why I made my comment that not every love internet needs to have powers because it shows the writers don’t know what to do with that love interest so they resort to the typical “give them powers” when their dynamic works because one is super while the other isn’t
Thunder boi with big hammer protecc city
💀 😔 30:31
40:45 I love the full circle moment here, in the masters of evil episde Thor says he kneels to no one, only to kneel in respect and graditude to his comrades, The Avengers by the end of season 1, I lovee the prestige that Avengers ad being a member of them has in this show.
I don't know how you do it man...your voice and the depth you it brings honestly is just so captivating. Has this calming effect. Keep at it ny my dude m, you're amazing
I love this version of the Avengers
Thor here learned that he can't stand things alone just because he's a god
And he needs help
sometimes
He has more of a saviour complex, maybe that would describe the god complex aspect you speak about. Really nice to see an in-depth analysis of Thor, and how it ties all the threads from each arc chronologically. Been enjoying this EMH series a lot so far!
...This show was so fucking good... You can tell that they were truly fans of these characters, unlike most of the more... Modern iterations...
EMH Thor is a perfect definition of a badass.
I think what you maybe meant was Thor has a Savior Complex
The BEST Version of Thor outside of Comics Ever Put on Any Screen.
I always watch thor of Asgard movie before this show and it fits perfectly for his character. Sometimes I like thor to be taken seriously
This retrospective of a series I never watched as been delightful.
I love Thor as a person who loves mythology but is able to ignore inaccuracies if it means a good story Thor has always been one of my favourite avengers not as good as cap or Hawkeye but still up there
Do you like Hindu mythology
@@leafyishereisdumbnameakath4259 not as much as Greek or Egyptian but I’m always happy to learn more
I love him as a character inspired by, rather than based on, the Thor of Norse Mythology
@@teamcybr8375 yeah exactly people get to hung up on how accurate something is to the mythology but I think as long as your telling a good story dose it matter
Back when the belief was widely practiced, people had many variations. For example, some parts of Scandinavia would veiw Tyr as chief of the gods instead of Odin. As a polytheist who follows the norse gods, I like Marvel Thor, and the inaccuracies are minor. I can't stand how they made hel a villain she was never a villain she was just doing her job.
30:30 why can’t that be me!😩
32:15 Thor is on big guy duty. And big guy gets beaten up by every villain to show how strong the villain is.
I really like this Thor, quick to anger, brave, noble, but willing to learn and side with his friends.
I really liked this version, mid MCU Thor and Avengers assemble Thor.
EMH was so good. Vaguely hoping it may get the X-Men 97 treatment. Sad thing is even on the off chance it may happen it would be atleast 10 years before it does. All the characters were well written.
Just because Thor gets hit alot doesn't mean he's weak. Much like Superman he takes the hits that no one else can take.
It's done to show scale. If something can hurt Thor than the audience takes it more seriously.
Something to note through is that Thor is constantly holding back. He is more "cosmic" in scale so he'd likely be more at home fighting cosmic entities.
The show didn't get around to these highter end villians or adversaries like Galactus or Silver Surfer but they would be a better measuring stick of what Thor can do
Galactus was literally the series finale.
@JosephJohns-xi1qb What really? I don't remember that episode.
And it's worth noting that when Thor is beaten up thoroughly, only the Hulk is also able to deal with the raw strength of the fight. Everyone else needs to use their smarts to figure out how to deal with a threat even Thor can not handle.
@KrazyStargazer
Yeah. Thor gets hyped up by Cap, shows up and brings Galactus to his knees, then fights Galactus while the other Avengers do their thing. He obviously loses but not even Hulk could stall Galactus that long lol.
@@hadouradiance3566 To be fair, base Thor generally isn't a match for him. Now, with the Odin force may be enough to do it depending on continuity.
A great character analysis of Thor in the Avengers Earth's Mightiest Heroes series.
I don't understand how Thor in this show is in any way weak. This is probably one of the most consistently strong depictions of him I've ever seen.
Able to hold his own against Graviton by himself.
Defeated multiple frost giants.
Fought one on one with Hulk and didn't even break a sweat.
Was only really bested in Gamma World by a literal army of gamma powered mutants, and the Absorbing Man absorbing Mjolnir's essence.
Fought against the Masters of Evil by himself for a good amount of time, which included two other Asgardians.
Destroyed a black hole.
Straight up deflecting a city destroying laser cannon from a hyper advanced time traveling space ship.
Actually managing to fight against Loki despite Loki having access to the Odin Force.
Fighting a mini army of fire demons.
Pulled 'Thor Arrives in Wakanda" in DC against the Skrull and was far more successful.
Managed to actually kill Ultron the second time around despite Ultron being made of Adamantium, albeit with Vision's help.
Kicking Red Hulk's ass.
Defeated the ENTIRE Kree army, and walking up to the Supreme Intelligence and saying it was found wanting.
And being able to actually hurt GALACTUS.
I have no idea what you're even talking about when you say Thor is weak in this show.
It was a joke 💀💀💀
@@Venxous I don't see how it was a joke at all. Everyone else seemed to take you seriously.
@@Venxous. As "Thanos" would say: You should choose your words more carefully.
@@tylermcneeley3136because everyone else cant take a joke
@@Invisibleboy999 There was no joke though. He didn't change his tone, he didn't have a brief pause to punctuate it, he sounded very sincere in his opinion. If it was a joke, he didn't tell it very well.
Love this content continue what you’re doin more EMH JLU or whatever you decide cause I’m sure these take awhile to make we appreciate your hard work
Emh Thor is my favorite version of Marvel's Thor. FOR MIDGARD! 💪🏻🔨
EMC was amazing for my
Childhood and now these videos are too good
Can't wait for the Wasp episode. She's genuinely one of my favorites.
Great in-depth review of Thor's arcs in EMH. Loved that show and Thor is my favorite Avenger. Just two little details...
proponent: noun. a person who puts forward a proposition or proposal. a person who argues in favor of something; an advocate. Synonyms: enthusiast, champion, supporter. a person who supports a cause or doctrine; adherent.
alleviate: verb. relieve, lessen: such as. a. : to make (something, such as pain or suffering) more bearable. a drug that alleviates the symptoms. using relaxation techniques to alleviate stress.
As much as they nerfed him, I still think this is the best on-screen version of Thor.
How was he nerfed?
Nerfed? He’s their big gun how is he nerfed
He was absolutely not nerfed in this show
@@YEs69th420 He was killed by Ultrons lazer and was getting beaten pretty badly by Ultron before he got his Vibranium body. I know Ultron is meant to be strong but come on Thor should have at least had Ultron on the ropes on the other way around.
@@jasonboakye4526 They made him completely useless when Beta-ray bill took his Hammer, I know he was worthy but Thor is still the god of Lightning no his hammer??!!
Thor wasn't completely wrong. Mere mortals can't handle most of the threats humanity is facing. The Avengers are not mere mortals.
This reminds me: Was curious as to Thor"s, Hulk's and (Skrull) Cap's costume changes? Like Tony had a good reason for his, the others just show up in the next season with new suits; mid-season 2 for Thor actually. And you can't say something like Hulk's pants start a testing because he's been wearing those since he first showed up in the show and it didn't bother anybody
30:37 when the scene is so out of pocket you break character
😂
I wanna tell you one usless but interesting fact:
In russian version of this show, Thor is very very poetic. He always talk like it's a poetry. He uses lot of old words, just like ancient warrior would do. Russian translation and voice acting in shows are often absolutely trash, but this time, they did really good job.
Cool. Is it on TH-cam?
That note about how Thor usually just shows up to get his butt kicked by villains in fights, same issue with Superman in Justice League.
Really just one of those cases where "This dude is a God so he should basically be unbeatable. But if he's too OP then other characters can't get a chance to shine and there'd be no conflict."
They overcompensate heavily and knock the powerhouses down in effectiveness to give the win to others. They're still great characters, but their mishandling in fight scenes diminishes their overall depiction.
Good stuff man! Audio was great. Keep it up and 100k is around the corner
It's funny. In the comics, Odin transforms Thor into Donald Blake, a doctor with a physical disability. He did it to teach Thor compassion.
The Earth goddess Gaia is his mother. That caused Thor to have a deep love for humanity. I think it's kind of odd that Odin doesn't want him to protect Earth.
But Gaia is Greek. This is weird
@@saajiddaya2152 It is. I guess Odin thought that since they are gods, they should have a child.
Tony's denial of magic and Thor's lineage are among many reasons why I've hated his character so much.
Science isn't the end all-beat all answer to ALL of humanity's questions, in the long run. Half the time, it does more harm than it does good (as shown many times in the series)
That's why there are character arcs
@@saajiddaya2152 But even AFTER seeing Asgard and all it's sorcery, Stark STILL tries to claim there's a "scientific explanation" behind it all.
The dwarves, drow elves, faeries and especially the Gods aren't something out of some sci-fi novel like he assumes
EMH Thor is like Escanor from Seven Deadly Sins. The strongest member of the team and clutches up when the situation looks dire.
Enchantress was a 🔥
Thor is a better man than me, if the Enchantress took me to a realm of peace with just me and her I would be acting unwise
Video is awesome. I'm lovin these analyses of one of the best shows.
I say this with a lot of love & you've probably got a lot of comments saying this, it is pronounced "coo" like a dove not "coop" like a chicken. It is Fr*nch so you gotta say it in the dumbest way possible.
Can't wait for the wasp video!
I recently rewatched that episode where Hulk leaves the team
And i believe that the Pepper potts that tells Thor to go after the hulk is actually the enchantress
I think it is hinted or at the the very least the fact that she calls almost immediately after Thor and Hulk argue is interesting
That’s always what I had assumed since she appears right behind where Thor was sitting after
@Venxous it's definitely very likely but either way, really great video 🙏🏽
I really like that take on it.
Thor not feeling better than everyone because he's stronger, but because he's stronger, he should use that strength the make their lives better.
I love EMH so much
I really like with Xmen '97
We get a new season for this
Crazy how a show on the avenger's had a better character then the MCU movies on the character
This version of Thor sold me on the character, before the MCU. previously I thought Thor was the LAMEST character. Wasserman’s take on the character is, much like Bloom’s Captain America, my favorite performance as the character. Again, despite the GRAND nature of how he speaks at no point does it feel like he’s ACTING. It feels so natural, to the point I could listen to his Thor do a long winded monologue and not be tired of it. Even in Marvel vs Capcom 3 he has a taunt where he can do basically a whole monologue. This Thor feels as grand as he speaks, and that’s what it comes down to. Does he walk the walk as grand as he talks the talk? This show was the first, and for me, best one to do so.
This show got me to start reading Thor comics.
If you can resist Amora advances, you may lift the Mjonir. No wonder only Thor can lift that thing.
another thing I love about this version of thor is the mythological aspect of his character
media like the ultimates comics or the MCU feel almost ashamed of Thor's roots in mythology, like they're embarrassed of what the character is and so always try to say "no he isn't mythological he's a powered up environmentalist" or "no he's not mythological he's just an alien" EMH on the other hand is shameless of that fact and embraces the mythological part of his character,
like yeah its silly but must super hero comics were goofy back then and that's partially what made them fun
"These videos are getting longer and longer."
"Wasp's video will be the last one."
Oh yeah, it's all coming together.
The super cut video is going go crazy, I always these videos every time w new one comes out
The audio of the clips only comes through left speakers. Not being a demanding viewer. Just poijnting out in case you didnt know that it might be in mono. Great video!!!
Thankfully I found and fixed the issue, i wouldn’t have know if it wasn’t for yall letting me know. I appreciate things like this to help me improve 🫡
@@Venxous I'm glad you appreciated it!! Keep up the great content!!
That is really good video.
30:39
Nah it should ve been me
😂
I disagree that Thor was to weak in this series. He was consistently the strongest member of the team. He was more often then not the last one standing and he whenever he finally showed up it was always a 'the cavalry has arrived moment.' I mean he single handedly defeated the Skrull military, he single handedly defeated the Kree military, he was the last guy left during Gamma world, and he brought Galactus to his knees.
Yeah that was a joke that just didn’t land
Hey, I think you are looking for the word "proportion," not "proponent." Great video, EMH is the best iteration of the Avengers, in my opinion.
You should do a breakdown of Amora The Enchantress and her turn to pure evil by the end of Season 2! Greatest Female Vilain in Marvel so far.
I think Earths mightiest heroes Thor is The best Adaptation seeing him going from having a God Complex to respeacting Mortals at the end of the first Season was good.
He's so cool
Did you split all the show audio to the right channel only on purpose? Cause i genuinely thought the video was corrupted when i was watching at work with one earcup off.
No it’s unfortunately an issue with the video show itself on certain episodes if you use both earbuds or over ears, I am looking for a solution to this.
Love your vids bro
I love them all
Generic comment for the algorithm.
Really liking these series of videos. One nitpick though: coup is pronounced like COO rather than COOP.
Honestly emh was better then all of mcu avengers imo
the video's like counter went up 4 times within 4 minutes :]
Who's Tony Stark? I only know a Tony Stank!
niceeee
Are we going to skip the part where thor blows up a huge area to kill that force field guy probably killing thousands of
👀 never said he was perfect
I truly don’t know, is there more than one season of this show
Yes there are two seasons
This Version of Thor is my Definitive Favourite!
Can you do video's of other Marvel character like Wolverine from X-Men the Animated Series or Spider-Man from The Spectacular Spider-Man?
i snezeed soo hard one time that i almost shat myself
You’ve got to start putting subtitles on those clips or something man
They are not God. Says Odin himself.They are just aliens just like Saiyans.
makes sense Thor's weaker in this show he's the strongest avenger so just like Superman in JL they had to nerf him
Do you have the fear and hunger knocking noise in your bgm??? I swear I'm hearing it every few seconds and I gotta be honest that is NOT a fun sound lol
wolverine and the x-men and debatably spectacular spider man are a part of the same universe iirc some other films like hulk vs iirc too and thor tales of asgard
I think MY favourite portrayal of Thor is probably in the movie Kung Fury (2015).
Andreas Cahling makes Chris Hemsworth look TINY in comparison!
1:30 EMH is in the same universe as Wolverine and the X-Men confirmed by the writers of the Yostverse and there was plans that Asgard would come to Earth after Ragnarok
Do you think Hulk vs Thor takes place after Earth Mightiest Heroes ?
@@comicbookking3446 It's confirmed that it takes place after EMH
@@victorhernandez5013 I’m a little curious on how it takes takes place after EMH since Odin has an eyepatch in that movie and Asgard is not on Earth.
40:26
Please do a wasp video next please!!
We just gonna ignore that Thor nuked the city to fight one man? Tell me, with a straight face, that no one died.
I'm sure the citizens had time to evacuate. No harm done.
Please look up the word “proponent “.
When does Wolverine and the X-men take place in relation to EMH? I never really knew the answer
Loki is Thor's stepbrother, not his brother.
Thor always refers to him as brother, even though I know he’s technically his step-brother I go off what Thor says
