I can't wait til the next Thor film where he has to find himself AGAIN when he realizes he doesn't like being a single parent much and goes through his midlife crisis in trying to get back to when he was young, unattached and fighting all the time. We can call it "Thor: Just start a bookclub already".
Totally agree with Honest Trailers. Focusing more on Gorr's god-killing mission would've made for a vastly more interesting movie, especially considering he was arguably the best thing about the way the whole thing turned out. But oh well. Let's see Paul Allen's Gorr
I think a better ending would have been Gore after being freed from the swords corruption saw that he could save someone’s love from being taken like his daughter was when she died and he saved Jane and than he died and reconvened with his daughter.
The only joke that genuinely made me laugh throughout the entire film was when Thor was like "We're gonna return the kids & then feast. But not on the kids. That was a dark & shameful part of our history". That was a dark joke in a Disney movie & the only thing that made me chuckle Also, Gorr was right.
I'd swear they had Gorr kidnap the kids specifically so he wouldn't be too sympathetic. It's something the MCU seems to be having a problem with. They create a bad guy with complex, defensible motivations - so the writers make them do something totally heinous, even if it's arbitrary or out-of-character. (See also: Karli going full murder-terrorist in Falcon & Winter Soldier.)
Can we acknowledge that Christian Bale acted the Hell out of the opening scenes? I was actually quite impressed by how sad the intro to the villain was. He was definitely the best part of this mediocre movie and deserved more screen time.
And Russell Crowe actually played a accurate Zeus from Greek mythology Where American film studios get the idea that Zeus is some fatherly figure sweet God is beyond me
It did feel like they tried to tone down the darker parts of the movie with jokes and kids. I wish they just let it be dark...everyone sings the praises of Winter Soldier because it didn't have to try to balance jokes and terror. It still had jokes, but not to distract from the storyline, just because they were in character to make between the characters.
Nice job, guys. My biggest gripe with the movie is how they took such an epic, vast story with tons of cinematic potential and then watered it down until it’s barely recognizable. The God Butcher comic has time travel, a massive scope, Gorr is a legitimate serial killer. Basically if you want to see this story done right read the graphic novel. It’s Thor meets God of War.
I haven't seen Gorr in the comics but i imagined he would be like Willian Wallace going on the lords that wronged him. I half expected the movie to be like thor and the gang trying to save each god Gorr aims and spectacularly failingl to do so until Zeus.
“The firstborn child Chris Hemsworth promised Kevin Fiege” makes a lot of sense honestly, how else has Thor been the only one of the big three to get a fourth solo movie?
Taika Waititi making fun of the VFX Artists really got under my skin. The nerve someone has to have to put the blame on the “artists” for a movie nobody liked when YOU literally directed the movie! It’s not their fault they had to be rushed and be given unrealistic deadlines!

I would've forgiven half those mistakes if we got to see a shirtless, ripped Natalie Portman. Yes I'm simping for her, proud simper since Attack of the Clones. MCU loves to show the guys shirtless, but God forbid they gives the larger viewing demographic some eye candy.
@@nahor88 dude get a grip of yourself, Natalie doesn't even have big enough kegs, but her assistant from 2 broke girls? Yummy if you see that and Simp I'd salute you.
The sequence with Gorr in B&W was the best part. It has the sparks to show what a great film it could've been. It also shows just how great of an actor Bale is. Even with Hemsworth, Portman, and Thompson being there, all A-listers being there, he still stood out, like an S-lister.
You make it sound like Bale hasn't been in some of the biggest films of the last 25 years. The man's resume far exceeds any of them, except Portman who did Leon: The Professional.
Sad part is that that would have worked better for Gorrs character. He sees Jane dying in the arms of someone who loves her and decides to be better than the gods he hated by saving her: giving Thor what the gods denied Gorr
He is the character that lost most in the series. His Mother, Father, Brother, planet, like half of Asgardians, the Girlfriend and somehow the movie looks like a Sitcom
While that is a somewhat valid complaint, I also think that, at least for some, knowing that it's just going to be one movie and not a multi-film commitment is at least part of why they've been able to get so many good actors for those roles. Not everyone wants the next decade of their life tied up in one franchise.
Yeah I really agree with that line of introducing a whole new major villain with Gorr. If they were going to go through the effort and connect different mythos' and all those Gods it could have been maybe over another movie and idk.. actually HAVE Gorr kill some gods?
He killed a bunch of gods. We saw some of their corpses. The GotG's mission at the start of the movie happened specifically because that planet's gods were killed.
ik, right? I was looking for some god fights but got a couple corpses and an angsty axe. Like when I went to see Multiverse of Madness for a bunch of crazy universes, and I got like a couple of them and a brief montage. At least for MoM I had EEA@1 to satisfy my itch; maybe we need the Daniels to make a movie about embattled comic book gods.
@@CaptHayfever Which is the equivalent of a film saying "he's the baddest, the most evil, the strongest" a few times before facing him and expecting some connection
I don’t understand why people hated this movie. All that was missing was an emotional investment, stakes in the story, character growth, a good villain, connecting the narrative to the larger universe, a theme or purpose, common sense, genuinely funny jokes and any hype or excitement for the next movie
If Taika followed his take on the jojo rabbit movie it'll be a great outcome. Too much unnecessary comedy thay i felt uncomfortable watching. I wanted the movie to take a dark turn since Gorr is a God butcher. It'll probably gave the ending a much needed feelings.
@@havenht Mmm, maybe slightly but it wasn't too extravagant there, not enough to be a real concern. But boy did he make Thor pour his brain onto a floor for this mess.
@@Kiljaedenas the fact that Thor isn't very bright is kinda what makes the Thor films entertaining though.... and it's accurate to the mythological Thor haha
I waited 4-5 years for this movie after it was first announced to when it got released and that's just how much I love Thor but after this movie and the end credits when I saw: *THOR WILL RETURN,* I immediately was like: *TO DO WHAT EXACTLY* show us a different shade of his buffoonery? O! How I miss the angry and desperate for revenge Thor from Infinity War.
Anakin: “Padme, is that you?!! Oh how ive missed you. I forgot to tell you about how much I really hate sand, especially after our semi-adopted grand-daughter decided to bury my saber on Tatooine!” Jane:” NOOOOOOOoooooOOO!” *proceeds to summon Mjolnir and hit Him*
For someone that hasn’t actually watched the film but only heard about how bad it is, this perfectly fulfilled my desire to see what everyone was talking about without actually putting myself through the pain. So thank you.
I'd say that Gorr is probably one of the better we've got villains since Thanos. I've heard some people say the end was anticlimactic, which yeah a little bit, but I do like a villain redeemed storyline and I think his third act redemption was handled better than most. It also helps that Bale put more effort into the character than the majority of superhero movie villains these days.
I honestly consider him to be on-par with Thanos because of how he perfectly contrasts the movie's overly comedic tone. I think the only scenes in the entire movie which don't build up to jokes are scenes when he's present. Motivation, visual appearance, and combat style are all great.
Apparently to get ready for the role, not only did Bale lose a ton of weight but he also had someone kill his only daughter to immerse himself into the role. That's acting commitment I can respect.
Knowing one of Epic's running gags of saying "Beewwbs" or in case of Avatar "Bleewwbs", I assumed for sure at 1:31 he was going to use the same tone and say "Gleewts"
One of the greatest “Starring” sections and titles IMO. “Jane the Version… we wanted more of” and “A white Christian who hates polytheism” had me rolling 😂
@@silentghost751 In case you didn't get it : «Christian» because the actor is Christian Bale, «white» because of the skin tone of the character, «hates polytheism» because he goes around killing «gods», and then this play on words contrasted with the whole phrase also referencing how in our world, Christians were quite intolerant about pagan religions...
I appreciate you guys putting Gorr in the ‘villains that are right’ category. I love Thor in this movie, but he is the quintessential peak of what Gorr is angry about. A god that can fix all of the problems around him, but he’s so obsessed with his own little orbit that everyone around him suffers MORE because of it. At the end I kept scream ‘Make the right wish!’ My wife didn’t approve, but I’m still in the right, darn it!
I definitely appreciated that he made the right wish in the end. That was a pretty satisfying character arc for Gorr, and one I'm pleased they chose to go with.
Yup, because everyone knows that because you are wronged by somebody from a group of people, and some of the members of that group are bad, lazy, or otherwise problematic, the real solution is wiping out the entire group. It's the final solution to these problems. Nothing problematic about that at all.
Like the throwaway line about not feasting ON the children...like they used to...in the embarrassing old times... Yeah, Gorr had a good point... (He just took too many innocents out along the way)
How is Thor in any way like the gods Gorr envisions? What does Thor have in common with the first god Gorr kills? He's basically the polar opposite. Thor's "orbit" are his realms.
Seeing the Guardians still have their wayward charm even with two new additons and one less along with Starlord having genuine potential for a nice story despite his loss in the next film was the best takeaway I had from this movie. I was already expecting the film to never give us a proper adventure with thor and the guardians, but how they managed to upstage his entire story in laughs and pathos for the short screentime they had? That's a paddlin.
Honestly they had great potential for a character arc with Jane's death. Like Thor doing everything in his power to prevent her death, because he's pretty much lost everyone else in his life.
Good one...never thought of that. Father, mother, brother, girlfriend (for a while), warrior friends, Heiman, sister he never knew he had (lol), home planet...
I can't believe you didn't call back to your own Honest Trailers about how Jane talks about space travel by pushing a pencil through a piece of paper. I saw it and shouted "In every movie! HT was right!" Before being escorted out of the theatre...
But they did it ironically in Thor. The unprompted explainer of Einstein-Rosen bridges are annoying, but at least it's exposition for the movie to make sense. Taika had Jane accost a teenager with it, even though it carried no significance for the movie. And that makes it a cinema win, rather than a sin.
Bale's character, his visualization and amazing acting were legitimately the only good thing in this movie. Everything else was a noisy mess that gave me a headache.
Loved this HT, but would add that the whole "unfocused tonal mismatch" problem wasn't helped by the plot being driven by a ton of abducted kids that our heroes...apparently have to decide whether they're going to go save or not? The movie and I were of two very different minds about how we feel about shadow monsters that abduct all of the children in a town, apparently.
Honestly i hope this is the final Thor movie, because it's ending it on the note that Thor is a father now. it was also sweet that the little girl in that movie was Chris Hemsworth's actual daughter India.
I agree, the best thing about this movie was jane's character, was well written and balanced and natalie portman killed it. Too bad they wrote themselves into a corner and had to kill her.
My big question is how does taika go from having balanced humor and emotional beats to literally making a comedy sketch movie? remember the Thor Ragnarok trailer where they show thor in the alleyway? Hella appears all that? In that scene he was supposed to find his father Odin homeless and get a mini pep talk, hella actually was supposed to kill him in that scene unceremoniously. Taika then went to reshoot it to give Odin A more tasteful death. So in that regard he knew how to balance it and even shows he has restraint with his humor. And I honestly do commend him for that, he took the time to make a better send off for Odin. I still think he's made some great movies it's just baffling how that professionalism was just gone in this one.
Taika is great when he's doing his own projects, and a terrible choice for something like the MCU. His strength is coming up with very original ideas, and building everything around that. Just doesn't work, though, when the world and characters are already pre-decided.
4:30 Or have scenes with *actual* weight. Remind me why they cut the scene of Zeus teaching Thor how to use the Thunderbolt? The same scene where he admits that he's not pure? Anyone?
@@fourlightsorchestra that was also good. Russell Crowe usually plays serious characters, so it was extra absurd seeing him play someone so over the top. Though I wasn't sure about the accent. It went with the character he was playing, but it was so bad.
But I also like that it was hovering, like it was waiting for her to say yes or no. (With the sense of personality they give Mjolnir and Stormbreaker in this film, I kind of imagine Thunderbolt saying to Zeus "Hey you've been doing party tricks with me for three thousand years - I'm going with the people who want me to be an actual weapon - bye!").
I am a life long Marvel fan, read a ton of the comics, seen all of the movies, bit this Thor movie is really hard to love. Actually all of the movies after Endgame is feeling like they are lacking something…
Go watch Nerdstalgic's video on Phase 4. They outline very well the issues the MCU is facing because they had very similar problems in the comics for a long time
I thought there were some pretty good moments in this movie, and I especially liked how Gorr was written. Most villain types will just continue to kill for no reason, despite having been presented a solution to the thing that made them angry in the first place. Props to Gorr for actually wishing his daughter back when given the chance instead of just being like, "Nah, I'm evil now." But... then they did the exact opposite with Zeus. Instead of, "I can't believe I'd forgotten what it means to be a god" his reaction was, "Dude... they can't do that... Shoot them, or something." Didn't really have an issue with much else but the anthropomorphizing of the weapons ended in the flattest way possible. After all that he still ditched Stormbreaker for his old fling. I mean I do get it, but that's on them for setting up a situation in which it actually feels stupid for Thor to get the hammer back. There was no reason for them to highlight that. It was cool the first encounter because even in the first movie we get the sense the weapon has some greater sense to it (it'll know when someone's worthy, after all). But going that far with the relationship aspect just destroyed the idea of seeing him back together with the hammer... which is eventually what they did. They could've focused on Stormbreaker instead and made it feel more meaningful that he'd give it up for the kid, rather than it feeling like he stabbed the weapon in the back by lying to it lol
Based on the post credit scene, Zeus character might pop off in a bad way (i mean like its a good way, but its for bad reasons). Other than Asgardians, Gods seems to only rely and care for the fear and worship that mortals give to them. That has always been the status quo so the gods can do whatever they want. But now, thanks to Thor, it seems that people forgot who to fear and give their lives to, praising the "heroes", instead of giving up their lives to the gods. So hopefully, if he comes back, he will be the villian with this motivation
Well it could go another way. In Ultimates that Thor uses a Mjolnir that looks like MCU Stormbreaker. In comics the Stormbreaker is actually first used by Beta Ray Thor. This could lead to that characters introduction.
Well, to be fair, Zeus has always been a self-absorbed jerk. But given that Zeus' father devoured his own children whole in order to keep them from usurping his throne, it's kind of hard to blame Zeus for not being the most well-adjusted god.
I will admit, I did enjoy the opening sequence with the Guardians. And there is definitely something absurdly funny about seeing Thor flying around on Stormbreaker like a witch on a broomstick
There certainly is. However that scene certainly shows the mentality of the entire movie, where laughs and giggles are more important than making any sense or keeping any tone.
After rewatching this I realized that the acting is really, really good in certain scenes. Thor and Jane’s kissing scene was brilliant. This movie is a couple of amazing scenes filled with craziness.
I enjoyed Love and Thunder, even more the 2nd time. I would’ve preferred to see Gorr fleshed out more, and the screaming goats were a bit annoying, but other than that it was pretty delightful. I believe Taika was rushed with unrealistic deadlines. He’s still The Man in my view!
I don’t even care that y’all will judge me, the goats were my favorite part of that movie. I was dying in the theater. But, I’m admittedly a very easy person to make laugh. 😊
My favorite part of the film is when Thor said "it's Thorin time" to gorr and gorr responded with "no, it's gorrin time" and then the fan favourite Dr. Michael Morbius appears out of no where and says his iconic line "it's morbin time" and morbs both of them.
I'm pretty sure it was deliberate eventually. I can almost see the director throwing their hands up when the tone couldn't be nailed: "Ok, $#@& it! We are just making a Thor movie parody, everyone do whatever they want every scene!"
i thought he was a good villain. I don't think he is a "groundbreaking antagonist", but still he did a good job. Honestly i think he was my favorite part of the movie (not a diss on Shang Chi, i liked it fine, but he was better than all the rest of the movie)
@@argonauta9044 Tony Leung really elevated the film for me! He added so much nuance to Wenwu, in the most subtle ways. It was so refreshing to have a more quieter character, in an otherwise loud and quirky MCU, who still projected his emotions -- just not in the traditional sense. I've been of fan of Leung for quite some time and was over-the-moon when I first heard that he was joining the MCU, only to feel a little disappointed when I realized that he was (most likely) only going to be in one film. I wish we could see more of him. He's definitely one of the strongest actors, in the most recent phase.
He was fantastic, and I really felt for him. Wish they had shown some of him hunting down/butchering a couple gods. Could have made for some genuinely suspensful/terrifying scenes, or just cool action pieces.
It was like letting a child play in a toy store and it wanted to do everything at once. It was too many stories in a short time, losing his grip on too much comedy, and it got way off course with all of it. Burning a Guardians plot, burning a Jane Foster Thor plot, burning a really good Villain... Quality over quantity is what Marvel loses at the moment, bit by bit.
@@sayhirachel they should save a race... but thor destroyed everything and nothing more happens. So the burned a guardian plot, because they didn't use them at all
I seem to have liked this movie a lot more than everyone else did. It could have used more time for the emotional beats and I'm not a fan of unnecessary voice over, but I generally thought it was a blast.
Some people use comedy to cope. There was this guy in my neighborhood who passed away from an autoimmune disorder, and and he was the funniest and most positive guy I have ever met. He was cracking jokes right up to the day of.
Yeahhh, I really feel like a lot of people missed the point of Love and Thunder. It's entirely about dealing with depression, and the ways in which grief can impact a person. Viewed through that lens, the humour (and occasional lack thereof) and inconsistent tone make far more sense - dealing with depression can produce far more dramatic rises and falls than living without it. Not to say the movie is perfect - it isn't. But I think people have been dogpiling too hard and not really bothering to try to understand the text - a growing problem in today's world (possibly brought about by American antintellectualism).
@@dalekthal9569 I thought the exact same thing when I watched it! I kept hearing people say the tone was inconsistent but after watching it its very clearly inconsistent in a relatable and realistic way, the way people in real life joke about gloomy subjects to cope with it! It's strange that people mistook that for bad storytelling! 🤔 But everyone's always mad at something these days haha
"The firstborn child Hemsworth promised to Kevin Feige" done slayed me good. -1 point for not doing a Ted Lasso / Roy Kent joke for Hercules though. You don't open a HitlerBurger, you open a breakfast joint and call it the LuftWaffle.

Yeah I really agree with that line of introducing a whole new major villain with Gorr. If they were going to go through the effort and connect different mythos' and all those Gods it could have been maybe over another movie and idk.. actually HAVE Gorr kill some gods?
He killed a bunch of gods. We saw some of their corpses. The GotG's mission at the start of the movie happened specifically because that planet's gods were killed.
ik, right? I was looking for some god fights but got a couple corpses and an angsty axe. Like when I went to see Multiverse of Madness for a bunch of crazy universes, and I got like a couple of them and a brief montage. At least for MoM I had EEA@1 to satisfy my itch; maybe we need the Daniels to make a movie about embattled comic book gods.
@@CaptHayfever the point is we didnt get to see any, the aftermath with dialogue is boring
@@CaptHayfever Which is the equivalent of a film saying "he's the baddest, the most evil, the strongest" a few times before facing him and expecting some connection
gorr in some of the comics was such a cool and terrifying villain, shame it was wasted
"Finding Chemo..." 🤣 Love the goat-scream audio transitions. Absolutely classic.
5:46 Yeah they shouldn't have used Thano's gauntlet in that scene. It should have been Iron Man's hand.
5:53 finally some acknowledgeds the genocide reference of the ice cream shop xD
I don’t understand why people hated this movie. All that was missing was an emotional investment, stakes in the story, character growth, a good villain, connecting the narrative to the larger universe, a theme or purpose, common sense, genuinely funny jokes and any hype or excitement for the next movie
If Taika followed his take on the jojo rabbit movie it'll be a great outcome. Too much unnecessary comedy thay i felt uncomfortable watching. I wanted the movie to take a dark turn since Gorr is a God butcher. It'll probably gave the ending a much needed feelings.
You forgot "main character with a brain larger than a peanut"
@@Kiljaedenas Just like how he dumb down Bruce Banner in Ragnarok.
@@havenht Mmm, maybe slightly but it wasn't too extravagant there, not enough to be a real concern. But boy did he make Thor pour his brain onto a floor for this mess.

EFAP is where I go and it’s practically the same week it comes out.
My main regret was seeing MOM before watching the review.
I waited 4-5 years for this movie after it was first announced to when it got released and that's just how much I love Thor but after this movie and the end credits when I saw: *THOR WILL RETURN,* I immediately was like: *TO DO WHAT EXACTLY* show us a different shade of his buffoonery?
O! How I miss the angry and desperate for revenge Thor from Infinity War.
Turns out Hiddleston carried the Thor movies who would have guessed...

I'd say that Gorr is probably one of the better we've got villains since Thanos. I've heard some people say the end was anticlimactic, which yeah a little bit, but I do like a villain redeemed storyline and I think his third act redemption was handled better than most. It also helps that Bale put more effort into the character than the majority of superhero movie villains these days.
The only problem is that Gorr the God Butcher didn't butcher Gods on screen.
I honestly consider him to be on-par with Thanos because of how he perfectly contrasts the movie's overly comedic tone. I think the only scenes in the entire movie which don't build up to jokes are scenes when he's present. Motivation, visual appearance, and combat style are all great.
@@WouldYouKindlyNot Yeah they did Gorr just to introduce Hercules.
Apparently to get ready for the role, not only did Bale lose a ton of weight but he also had someone kill his only daughter to immerse himself into the role. That's acting commitment I can respect.
The thing is they have to stop bringing in acclaimed actors who have no intention of sticking around.
This movie did indeed feel like tripping. It was literally Ragnarok on acid.
I literally did two tabs of lsd before the movie and it was so bonkers lol

Ragnarok was more like a mushroom trip
Took an edible lol, I fell asleep like halfway thru though
Knowing one of Epic's running gags of saying "Beewwbs" or in case of Avatar "Bleewwbs", I assumed for sure at 1:31 he was going to use the same tone and say "Gleewts"
They stopped doing the "Beewwbs" thing a couple of years ago because some viewers considered it to be sexist and inappropriate, apparently.
One of the greatest “Starring” sections and titles IMO. “Jane the Version… we wanted more of” and “A white Christian who hates polytheism” had me rolling 😂
So he starts killing the Polytheists across the Space, so he is a Space Terrorist. In a White Gown type thing with a hood.
r/we saw the video
Is there a meaning to the second one?
@@silentghost751 In case you didn't get it : «Christian» because the actor is Christian Bale, «white» because of the skin tone of the character, «hates polytheism» because he goes around killing «gods», and then this play on words contrasted with the whole phrase also referencing how in our world, Christians were quite intolerant about pagan religions...
@@BlueTemplar15 There's only one God
I appreciate you guys putting Gorr in the ‘villains that are right’ category. I love Thor in this movie, but he is the quintessential peak of what Gorr is angry about. A god that can fix all of the problems around him, but he’s so obsessed with his own little orbit that everyone around him suffers MORE because of it.
At the end I kept scream ‘Make the right wish!’ My wife didn’t approve, but I’m still in the right, darn it!
on a broomstick
I definitely appreciated that he made the right wish in the end. That was a pretty satisfying character arc for Gorr, and one I'm pleased they chose to go with.
Yup, because everyone knows that because you are wronged by somebody from a group of people, and some of the members of that group are bad, lazy, or otherwise problematic, the real solution is wiping out the entire group. It's the final solution to these problems. Nothing problematic about that at all.
Like the throwaway line about not feasting ON the children...like they used to...in the embarrassing old times...
Yeah, Gorr had a good point... (He just took too many innocents out along the way)
How is Thor in any way like the gods Gorr envisions? What does Thor have in common with the first god Gorr kills? He's basically the polar opposite. Thor's "orbit" are his realms.
Despite this movie being a "Thor" movie, it made me more excited for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 and the Holiday Special.
Seeing the Guardians still have their wayward charm even with two new additons and one less along with Starlord having genuine potential for a nice story despite his loss in the next film was the best takeaway I had from this movie. I was already expecting the film to never give us a proper adventure with thor and the guardians, but how they managed to upstage his entire story in laughs and pathos for the short screentime they had? That's a paddlin.
Feels like that will be our best/only shot at a good marval film since endgame.
but basically james gunn saying all of the guardians are dead except for rocket killed my joy for volume 3 haha
If you can, play the Guardians of the Galaxy game. You will not be disappointed, it's one of the funniest games I've played.

This was one of the best honest trailers. This movie definitely didn't take enough time with the villain, and made way to many jokes
Honestly they had great potential for a character arc with Jane's death. Like Thor doing everything in his power to prevent her death, because he's pretty much lost everyone else in his life.

I can't believe you didn't call back to your own Honest Trailers about how Jane talks about space travel by pushing a pencil through a piece of paper. I saw it and shouted "In every movie! HT was right!" Before being escorted out of the theatre...
HT?
@@curiousrex5183 honest trailer, I assume
Lmao
But they did it ironically in Thor. The unprompted explainer of Einstein-Rosen bridges are annoying, but at least it's exposition for the movie to make sense. Taika had Jane accost a teenager with it, even though it carried no significance for the movie. And that makes it a cinema win, rather than a sin.
IKR? I thought the same thing.
"Whatever different and interesting movie Christian Bale is in" perfectly encapsulates the viewing experience.
He's the only character who got to be serious all the time.
Bale's character, his visualization and amazing acting were legitimately the only good thing in this movie. Everything else was a noisy mess that gave me a headache.
If you think about it, Stormbreaker had a more coherent character development than Thor himself during his entire arc inside the MCU ⚡️
At the same time, it's weird how Thor obsesses over Mjolnir, even though it's objectively worse than Stormbreaker and he literally doesn't need it.
Thor had Mjlonir for like 500-1000years, he had Storm Breaker for a good 5-7 years

Loved this HT, but would add that the whole "unfocused tonal mismatch" problem wasn't helped by the plot being driven by a ton of abducted kids that our heroes...apparently have to decide whether they're going to go save or not? The movie and I were of two very different minds about how we feel about shadow monsters that abduct all of the children in a town, apparently.
Honestly i hope this is the final Thor movie, because it's ending it on the note that Thor is a father now.
it was also sweet that the little girl in that movie was Chris Hemsworth's actual daughter India.
india hemsworth definitely has a lot of potential
I agree, the best thing about this movie was jane's character, was well written and balanced and natalie portman killed it. Too bad they wrote themselves into a corner and had to kill her.
I don't think Natalie wants to be part of the MCU anyway.
In the comics it isn't that definitive after she gets to Valhalla.
I found the best part to be where it ended. Worst Marvel film yet and a stain on the Thor series.
I thought Christian Bale who was so unrecognizable was really good too.
@@skywalker6648 I agree, he did a great job. But the characters... The movie was actually pretty close to being good instead of what we got.
My big question is how does taika go from having balanced humor and emotional beats to literally making a comedy sketch movie? remember the Thor Ragnarok trailer where they show thor in the alleyway? Hella appears all that? In that scene he was supposed to find his father Odin homeless and get a mini pep talk, hella actually was supposed to kill him in that scene unceremoniously.
Taika then went to reshoot it to give Odin A more tasteful death. So in that regard he knew how to balance it and even shows he has restraint with his humor. And I honestly do commend him for that, he took the time to make a better send off for Odin.
I still think he's made some great movies it's just baffling how that professionalism was just gone in this one.
exactly! i expected so much from him
Taika is great when he's doing his own projects, and a terrible choice for something like the MCU. His strength is coming up with very original ideas, and building everything around that. Just doesn't work, though, when the world and characters are already pre-decided.
4:30 Or have scenes with *actual* weight. Remind me why they cut the scene of Zeus teaching Thor how to use the Thunderbolt? The same scene where he admits that he's not pure? Anyone?
5:40 duuude, i spat my monitor :D
Russell Crowe lifting his skirt to go down the steps was 1 of the funniest things I have seen in a long time. It was just so absurd.
“...and fleeiiik”. That’s the part that killed me.
@@fourlightsorchestra that was also good. Russell Crowe usually plays serious characters, so it was extra absurd seeing him play someone so over the top. Though I wasn't sure about the accent. It went with the character he was playing, but it was so bad.
Crowe be like, “I…am the Ballerina Man!”
I had good laughs with this shitshow. The actors at least were clearly having fun... and we can enjoy it.
That's probably the one scene I genuinely laughed at.😂
I had the exact thought about the "Infinity Cones" bit...BUT thinking about it now At least all the people he killed came back.
5:21 awesome voice change
I liked when the hammer just came up to jane to go save thor when it probably knew that it’d kill her
But I also like that it was hovering, like it was waiting for her to say yes or no. (With the sense of personality they give Mjolnir and Stormbreaker in this film, I kind of imagine Thunderbolt saying to Zeus "Hey you've been doing party tricks with me for three thousand years - I'm going with the people who want me to be an actual weapon - bye!").
Honest Trailers itself has managed to remain more consistent than the MCU.
They really have and it’s just sad, really
'Thrill at whatever different and interesting movie Christian Bale is in!'
ahahahaha i had to stop the video i was laughing so hard 🤣🤣🤣
I feel like they got to this point of the MCU and were like "What are we gonna do? I never thought we would get here..."
"The first born child Hemsworth promised to Kevin Fiege" got me. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I am a life long Marvel fan, read a ton of the comics, seen all of the movies, bit this Thor movie is really hard to love. Actually all of the movies after Endgame is feeling like they are lacking something…
After 15 minutes of watching Thor: Love and Thunder I felt a moral and ethical obligation to walk out. After 20 minutes, I did.
Yes omg and all the character changes and swaps and changed storylines . They try to hard to be funny now . Real fans feel it🤓😬
Go watch Nerdstalgic's video on Phase 4. They outline very well the issues the MCU is facing because they had very similar problems in the comics for a long time
I think Shang chi was awesome. Is this not a popular opinion?
That would have been sweet to hear Russel Crowe say, "ARE YOU NOT ENTERNAINED?!?" for his credit.
I thought there were some pretty good moments in this movie, and I especially liked how Gorr was written. Most villain types will just continue to kill for no reason, despite having been presented a solution to the thing that made them angry in the first place. Props to Gorr for actually wishing his daughter back when given the chance instead of just being like, "Nah, I'm evil now."
But... then they did the exact opposite with Zeus. Instead of, "I can't believe I'd forgotten what it means to be a god" his reaction was, "Dude... they can't do that... Shoot them, or something."
Didn't really have an issue with much else but the anthropomorphizing of the weapons ended in the flattest way possible. After all that he still ditched Stormbreaker for his old fling. I mean I do get it, but that's on them for setting up a situation in which it actually feels stupid for Thor to get the hammer back. There was no reason for them to highlight that. It was cool the first encounter because even in the first movie we get the sense the weapon has some greater sense to it (it'll know when someone's worthy, after all). But going that far with the relationship aspect just destroyed the idea of seeing him back together with the hammer... which is eventually what they did. They could've focused on Stormbreaker instead and made it feel more meaningful that he'd give it up for the kid, rather than it feeling like he stabbed the weapon in the back by lying to it lol
Based on the post credit scene, Zeus character might pop off in a bad way (i mean like its a good way, but its for bad reasons). Other than Asgardians, Gods seems to only rely and care for the fear and worship that mortals give to them. That has always been the status quo so the gods can do whatever they want. But now, thanks to Thor, it seems that people forgot who to fear and give their lives to, praising the "heroes", instead of giving up their lives to the gods. So hopefully, if he comes back, he will be the villian with this motivation
Well it could go another way. In Ultimates that Thor uses a Mjolnir that looks like MCU Stormbreaker. In comics the Stormbreaker is actually first used by Beta Ray Thor. This could lead to that characters introduction.
He sort of had to use mjolnir at the end, the little girl probably isn’t worthy yet.
I mean IT seems like she has Eternity powers so I don't think she needs a weapon at all.
Well, to be fair, Zeus has always been a self-absorbed jerk. But given that Zeus' father devoured his own children whole in order to keep them from usurping his throne, it's kind of hard to blame Zeus for not being the most well-adjusted god.
I loved this movie. AND, this critique is on point
All the scenes with bale were so good.
I will admit, I did enjoy the opening sequence with the Guardians. And there is definitely something absurdly funny about seeing Thor flying around on Stormbreaker like a witch on a broomstick
There certainly is. However that scene certainly shows the mentality of the entire movie, where laughs and giggles are more important than making any sense or keeping any tone.
Touché
I loved when Gandalf told Groot, "Run, forest! Run!" 10/10.
Okay, that made me chuckle.
Please, stop.
Omg I completely forgot that part 😂😂
That's a solid 5/7
Thank you for the laugh.
After rewatching this I realized that the acting is really, really good in certain scenes. Thor and Jane’s kissing scene was brilliant. This movie is a couple of amazing scenes filled with craziness.
Honestly I give them props for actually killing Jane. I thought they'd use Eternity's wish to save her, not to give Thor a kid.
I enjoyed Love and Thunder, even more the 2nd time. I would’ve preferred to see Gorr fleshed out more, and the screaming goats were a bit annoying, but other than that it was pretty delightful. I believe Taika was rushed with unrealistic deadlines. He’s still The Man in my view!

Great video, it's been long since I've seen an honest trailer that made me laugh so hard. Even the staring segment was hilarious 🤣
My favorite part of the film is when Thor said "it's Thorin time" to gorr and gorr responded with "no, it's gorrin time" and then the fan favourite Dr. Michael Morbius appears out of no where and says his iconic line "it's morbin time" and morbs both of them.
Mr Sunday Movies fan?
Thanos being for kids literally is like having a Hilter burger joint lmao!
"Finding Chemo" - that got me. Really got me. Nice vid!
This movie felt more like a sitcom than a superhero flick
I'm pretty sure it was deliberate eventually. I can almost see the director throwing their hands up when the tone couldn't be nailed: "Ok, $#@& it! We are just making a Thor movie parody, everyone do whatever they want every scene!"
The 'Friends' generation where every line ends with a sarcastic quip and we smugly congratulate ourselves on being 'hilarious'.

@@argonauta9044 Tony Leung really elevated the film for me! He added so much nuance to Wenwu, in the most subtle ways. It was so refreshing to have a more quieter character, in an otherwise loud and quirky MCU, who still projected his emotions -- just not in the traditional sense.

It was like letting a child play in a toy store and it wanted to do everything at once.
It was too many stories in a short time, losing his grip on too much comedy, and it got way off course with all of it. Burning a Guardians plot, burning a Jane Foster Thor plot, burning a really good Villain...

1:30 In that one scene, we went from a Taika Waititi film to a Joel Schumacher film.
I seem to have liked this movie a lot more than everyone else did. It could have used more time for the emotional beats and I'm not a fan of unnecessary voice over, but I generally thought it was a blast.
Some people use comedy to cope. There was this guy in my neighborhood who passed away from an autoimmune disorder, and and he was the funniest and most positive guy I have ever met. He was cracking jokes right up to the day of.
Agreed, only people who've tasted death can judge fairly
Gallows humour. It's essential to not go insane when faced with your own demise.
yeah especially the second bit with Jane I don't think was her trying to make a joke
Yeahhh, I really feel like a lot of people missed the point of Love and Thunder. It's entirely about dealing with depression, and the ways in which grief can impact a person. Viewed through that lens, the humour (and occasional lack thereof) and inconsistent tone make far more sense - dealing with depression can produce far more dramatic rises and falls than living without it.
Not to say the movie is perfect - it isn't. But I think people have been dogpiling too hard and not really bothering to try to understand the text - a growing problem in today's world (possibly brought about by American antintellectualism).
@@dalekthal9569 I thought the exact same thing when I watched it! I kept hearing people say the tone was inconsistent but after watching it its very clearly inconsistent in a relatable and realistic way, the way people in real life joke about gloomy subjects to cope with it!
