Fun fact, Nat: Chris Hemsworth’s daughter played Gor’s daughter.
In fact, Chris’, Natalie’s, Christian’s, and director Taika’s kids were all in this!
Hemsworth’s brother and wife were also in the movie, the actor playing Thor in the play & the wolf woman from the opening montage.
Of course they were, celeb privilege
nepotism at its finest
@@undies891 beat me to it 😅
Also, when the kids were on set Taika asked them to draw what they thought the shadow demons would look like and he gave the drawings to the digital effects team and had them put in the film.
This movie came out straight after my Dad died. From cancer. This movie brought me so much peace and comfort. That Jane got to be a superhero before she died. I ended up watching it again the next day. It helped me so much come to terms with things
Sorry for your lose but I’m glad this movie gave you so much peace, which makes sense.
@@Andrew.Grabowski thank you man
Sorry to hear it. This movie was a comfort for me too
I am so happy this existed for you when it did. My mom died recently and it's amazing what kind of things help you through it. Much love.
Omg I'm so sorry that that happened to you. 😭 Glad this movie brought you peace and comfort.
What I really like about this movie is the fact that Jane, even though she is not dieing while fighting on the battlefield, still gets to come to Valhalla. (You need to die in battle to get there.) This means that she officially died in the battle against cancer. So the movie is acknowledging that the fight against cancer is a battle on its own.
I think this is showing a lot of respect for everyone who is fighting cancer and those who lost the fight.
(I hope my English is good enough to convey what I mean)
I don’t think that is what they intended but that’s a beautiful way to interpret it
You nailed it.
This is a Chris Hemsworth family movie.
- His brother Luke plays Thespian Thor
- His daughter India Rose played Gorr's Daughter / Love
- His other daughter Sasha played one of the Asgardian Kids
- His son Tristan played Kid Thor (running through the trees) during the flashback
- His wife Elsa Pataky played the Wolf Woman (on a woman wolf)
Something I think is kinda neat is all the shadow monsters were partially designed by kids. A bunch of kids drew pictures of monsters, then the art department took those drawings and made all the CG models.
thats really smart actually. its sorta pretty accurate on how kids see "monsters" like that. i love that thanks for telling us hah
omg reallyyy????? thats soo cool
Yh it’s on the BTS of thor
The movie was written by Children, that's why there are so many Plot holes, and Inane Humor.
@@lokithecat7225 Then you should be in love with it, you big fucking baby.
Congratulations on your marriage Nat! We’re so happy to have you back
I had no idea! Congrats to them!
Wow, where did she find a guy that desperate.
@@McMahonHater apathy isn't cool. Sorry man.
@@McMahonHater Why the need to be so rude, mate?
@@McMahonHater dude, shut up
I laughed so hard with the editing in her reaction here having the screaming goats bleeping out her cussing. SO funny.
I’ve got multiple family members dealing with cancer. This movie hit a very tender nerve I didn’t know was there. I wept from the moment Jane admired her diagnosis to Thor, through the end credits.
My condolences
Also I'm not sure Nat caught this detail, but the reason Mjolnir flew to Jane before Gorr attacked the village is cause much like how Odin put a spell on Mjolnir to only be held by the worthy, Thor put a spell on Mjolnir to always protect Jane. In this case, giving her Thor powers.
That's a very serious writing mistake!
the hammer should protect her, so it give her Thor's power, but using that power kill her... Nonsense...
@@maisana663
the reason the hammer kills her is because it recognizes chemotherapy as harmful and removes it from her system but it doesn't do it with cancer because it's not a disease it's a mutation in the dna, the hammer thinks it is part of her
@@maisana663 Using the power brings her good health on the form of Thor, but deteriorates her human body behind the curtain of power. i agree, they were lazy near the end with how she died.
The hammer destroys the chemo and the cancer kills her body
@Mattia Maisana I mean are you really expecting the hammer or a spell accidentally cast by Thor to understand the intricacies of how cancer and chemotherapy effect the body
18:36 honestly, that's the most mythologically accurate Zeus I've seen yet 😂
Before I watched this, I read something that said “Remember that this movie is Korg’s retelling of events” and going into it with that in mind made the absurdity of it a lot easier to handle, lol
Also, congratulations to you and especially to Tyler, he’s a lucky dude! ❤️
This mindset makes the movie make a lot more sense and isn’t as ridiculous as people think it is. I enjoyed it a lot personally but this makes it a lot more sense.
Thanks for this, its similar to how starwars films are all being told by R2D2
It's like 300 is being narrated by the Spartan who survived, yet people were like "this movie is racist and unrealistic.." when it was released... Well it was a story being told by a Spartan about his enemy TO his army of Spartans to inspire and hype them up for battle, of course it's embellished, it's his version of events 🤷♂️
Yes, Korg is definitely an unreliable narrator here. Recall the shot from the first battle, where Thor does the van Damme sort of split while holding two machines apart.
I had this realization midway through watching it the first time when Sif was over-acting.
What I love about this movie is how Thor used his words to change Gorr's mind to bring back his Daughter not fight him. So refreshing to see that in a superhero movie.
I love that Matt Damon is playing an actor who is playing Loki in the MCU, because Matt also played the character of Loki himself in 1999's Dogma movie with Jay and Silent Bob lol
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I feel like all of my friends disliked this movie and I was the only one who had a great time. This made me happy
I think she was in the perfect mood for it 😂 which is always good. Most ppl I watched it with definitely weren’t.
Your friends are clearly enemies of fun. This was the second-best Thor movie (after Ragnarok). ❤⚡
If it helps, me and my people liked this. Immaculate intro, needed to be longer.
I actually liked it even more the 2nd time around.
@@SilentBob731 or humour is subjective.
@@KongFuzii fr, not a funny movie imo
I really enjoyed this movie, in particular the end
When it's revealed why the movie is called love and thunder it actually brought tears to my eyes
The ending was my favorite part too. Gorr went from renouncing the gods after his daughter died to putting all of his faith in a god to protect her after he's gone.
@@ragtimeraver yeah, that moment when Thor told him he could choose love, he could bring her back, I was like, that's so good. Why didn't I think of that.
I know not everyone reacts the same to movies, so I'm not trying to say anyone should or shouldn't like this movie
All I can say, is from the moment they reach eternity everything was chef's kiss for me
Very emotional, moving in the best ways
Also, the theme song was ‘Sweet child of mine’, and it ends with him having a child. Prefect!
That was definitely my favourite part ngl 🥺
Ever since I saw this on theaters I was expecting Natalie's reaction to Roy Kent being in the MCU and it didn't disappoint
"He's here! He's there! He's every-f**king-where! HER-CU-LES!!"
@@Johnny_Socko "Bless my soul, Herc was on a roll!"
who is Roy Kent? i dont know anything abt him, could u explain to me why people are talking about him so much?
@@bella7162 Sorry, that actor who played Hercules also plays a (former) British football player called Roy Kent on the series "Ted Lasso". GREAT character, and a great series.
@@bella7162 Brett Goldstein is a comedian/writer/actor that plays Roy Kent on Ted Lasso. (some people are already complaining they got a comedian for Hercules)
9:45 to me, the fact that Matt Damon came back for this role, it’s so great. Because of course Loki would cast the A-list American actor for his own role in Ragnarok play, then he got a knockoff Thor (a Hemsworth bro) and a retired actor for Odin, both of them being Australians. The fact that those actors survived Ragnarok AND Thanos’s attack on the ship, it’s just surreal, and makes the joke even better. Adding a bit of nepotism with McCarthy for Hela and her husband as the stage manager… chef’s kiss. 🎉
Sam Neill isn't retired and he's from New Zealand. Otherwise, everything you said is on point. 😊
Am ideal "family" movie you might say
@@ZukoHalliwell From New Zealand and also Taika likes to visit his winery and drink his stuff.
I love how Matt Damon played Loki in Dogma and he's portraying an actor who is portraying Loki in the MCU lol
@@ZukoHalliwell He was also in Hunt for the Wilderpeople. Which was the same director.
They had the children of the crew draw what the scariest monsters they thought of and they used the designs for Gorrs shadow monsters.
"Alright! Octi's GONE!"(Tosses head towards kids.)
Gors daughter screaming "Go to hell, demon!"and blasting Thor's frying pan is all the funnier because it's Chris Hemsworth's actual daughter. She's part Eternity now, which is why she has the powers.
Knew you'd love seeing Hercules, given your love of "Ted Lasso".
As someone who wasn’t a big fan of this one, it really does make me happy to see you enjoyed it ! Not every movie is for everyone, and I feel like nowadays everyone takes movie opinions so personally. Glad you had fun !
Yes. This rewatching made me take a few parts less serious and enjoy them more.
“Nowadays everyone takes movie opinions so personally”
If that’s not the understatement of the of century actually scratch that the fucking MILLENNIUM then I don’t know what is
I enjoyed this movie a fair amount, though think Ragnarok was by far the better of the two Waititi movies. This one DID come off as a bit too silly, and a little overly hammy, but the thing that saves it for me is that you can think of it as being told by an unreliable narrator. The start of the movie sets it up as a story being told by Korg, so if you take the entire thing as being told from his perspective, it makes the characters feeling a bit exaggerated make sense (to me, at least). But yeah, I can see how some people may not like it, but I had fun with it.
@@mohammedashian8094 Including their own. Yeah, people take others' opinions too seriously, but people take their own opinions too seriously as well. It's crazy to me how far some people are willing to go to try and PROVE that their opinion is the TRUTH and only valid viewpoint.
@@Goomyx1492 crazy fucking world ain’t it?
"Congratulations Mr. Gold."
"No, That's not how it works."
"Yes it is"
"Yeah, it is."
I'm so excited that you enjoyed it - I was surprised to see what a backlash this movie got. It was exactly the off the wall kind of thing I was expecting from this movie and I thought it was a lot of fun.
Ragnarok was a perfect blend of action and humor, but they went all in with humor in Love & Thunder and it wasn’t the same anymore. It was just all over the place and that’s why it got the backlash. While Ragnarok was different and refreshing, this movie turned into a joke of itself. I’m happy that you and others find it enjoyable.
@@kaibricturner8836 For my money, I found more pathos in this than I did in the previous one. Jane's sacrifice was very touching, even though we all saw it coming.
The convoluted way in which she made him a father aside, the ending was also poignant. It was a joyful romp with a squishy heart at its centre. May not have worked for everyone but it sure worked for me.
@Angelo Barovier That’s cool. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t want another Thor film because he’s actually my favorite of the Marvel heroes. But it needs to be refreshing again and I don’t think Taika should come back for a 3rd time. Personally I would love to see Kenneth Branagh return because he did the original film and he’s a great actor in his own right. There are certainly more stories that they can pull from, so the material is not in question. It’s just the way that it’s executed. A lot of times a director can knock it out of the park, but a follow up can be very disappointing. It happened when Sam Mendes did Skyfall for 007. It was an extremely successful film, but his follow up Spectre was met with harsh criticism. And like you, I enjoyed both of them and loved both of them. But he didn’t come back to finish the series. Another director came in to do No Time To Die and it was a great send off for the character. Perhaps it can happen with Thor.
@@kaibricturner8836 Personally disagree. My only real complaint of Ragnarok was that most parts that should have been emotional were basically ignored for a joke. The two big ones were the death of Thor's friends and the destruction of Asgard, but there were also some things with Bruce/Hulk that I thought could have been better. They did do a good job with Odin's death, though. Overall, I enjoyed Ragnarok quite a bit, but I always thought it focused on the jokes to the slight detriment of the story. The emotional parts of Love and Thunder were all very poignant to me. Of course, that's a lot of personal preference, so your mileage may vary 🤷♀️
I actually thought Thor Love & Thunder was pretty good, they had both comedy and deep conversations throughout the movie. I could see why people wouldn't like this over other darker/ action oriented marvel series (because the symbolisms and meanings are overshadowed by the comedy) 🤷🏽♀️ still good! It's fun and fresh
This reaction was everything I needed and more! Really nice to see someone like it like I did. You even spotted some stuff I missed.
Had a great time watching this with you.
What got me truly emotional was when I realized Thor enchanted Mjölnir to protect Jane at all costs. Even now I’m getting emotional
The scene where Thor enchants the kids and they start attacking with the guitar solo going is oddly chill inducing and hype as all fuck.
Yeah, that was great! And look at all the "weapons" the kids use. hahaha, that scene was perhaps the highlight of this movie.
Why didnt Thor give all Wakanda the power of Thor to fight off Thanos?
@@sankharaYT that’s an interesting question. Real answer: they hadn’t thought of it. In universe: maybe he can’t do that via storm breaker and has to use the thunderbolt to do it. The kids all had yellow electricity like the thunderbolt instead of blue electricity like normal Thor.
@@Etticos. But then why would the thunderbolt grant him that power, it isn't his weapon. Not to mention that Zeus never once used that power, nor did he mention that it had that ability. The real reason is that they pulled it out of their ass because Taika didn't give a shit.
Lmaooo the delusion of people it's hilarious
in the Old Norse myths, Thor's charriot was actually pulled by two goats, Tanngrisnir and Tanngnjóstr.
I had a blast with this movie. Taika can get away with anything, really.
And every evening Thor could slaughter the goats for dinner, then wrap the bones in their skins and they'd be resurrected in the morning.
So when Thor says they could use the goats for meat it is a nod to that aspect of the myth.
@@ElliotNesterman Except the one time Loki sucked the very marrow from one of the goat bones and left it with a wonky leg for eternity.
@@ElliotNesterman wow so cool i love mythology so much
Valhalla: The Afterlife where Heroes who died in Battle would be Transported to by the Valkyries.
Or where People who die of Cancer end up, without Valkyries.
Because Taika and Marvel can screw up anything, really...
@@lokithecat7225 Heimdall got into Valhalla, but we didn't see Valkyrie bringing him there (since she was busy saving half of the Asgardians on their ship).
I genuinely love this movie. I am so glad you did too, I was beginning to feel like I was the only one.
Congrats on being married!! Really happy for you both. It's great when you can find someone you want to be with who wants to be with you. So good on you both! I didn't love this film but I did love Natalie as Thor and I'm a little bummed with how things ended. Hopefully she returns. Also everyone focuses on Matt Damon and ignore the guy from Jurassic Park playing Odin. He decided to do this a second time too. :)
I had a great time seeing this one in theaters. There are certain things about Taika Waititi's style that I don't like, but wow I loved that ending. Portman and Bale really brought their best.
Pretty much nailed my thoughts on this as well. So much of the emotion in this film was beautiful and really nailed it but definitely could've done with a lot less wackiness
@@kevinshook2762 And less goats. But I totally agree with the original sentiment that Portman and Bale both brought their A game to this movie and each were truly the heart of the film.
The thing I am growing to love about Taika is how he mixes comedy and tragedy without any blending whatsoever. This feels a LOT like JoJo Rabbit to me in how it does that, and Hunt for the Werpeople also. Ragnarok is the only of his movies that doesn't make really jarring shifts like that. I can see why people don't like the wackiness, but I find it a coping mechanism for dealing with the tragedy.
@@juvandy i feel like jojo rabbit's shift in comedy to tragedy was done well, it knows when to use comedy and when to actually be serious.
@@juvandy His first movie Boy did the same thing. You're along for the ride, chuckling away, and then WHAM it hits you in the feels. The Thor movies don't seem to do that as well. (Our Flag Means Death also has a lot of heart, it feels more like Taika to me.) This movie to me feels like everyone involved wanted to make a superhero movie that their kids could enjoy, and I have no problem with that. It's not my favorite by far but it's still better than Iron Man 2.
Congratulations to you and Tyler!! A movie about love seems like an exceptionally appropriate film to come back and react to 😂
Wishing you guy guys all the best and many many great years together!
I enjoyed this one even more with your reaction. Went a little too far into the silly for me (I thought Ragnarok got the balance just right), but that's just personal taste and everyone is going to feel different about it. MCU's "worst" properties are still good movies/shows. 14 years in and still going strong.
it felt like a thor movie doing a parody of a thor movie
Same. A little too silly. Prawly only one viewing for me.
Love how you fully accepted the ridiculousness in the Thor movies, so you enjoyed it more. I love how open you are. 💜💖 Congrats on your marriage. 💖
Finally someone else who enjoyed the movie lol this movie gets overhated 😭😂💀
Hey, I loved it! I just though the jokes should of been toned down.
No no it was bad 😔
It was appropriately hated imo. I loved ragnarok
@@Grumbo91 I loved Ragnorok to, more than love and Thunder, but that’s doesn’t mean I didn’t like it
I agree. I think people are just suffering from Marvel fatigue. Would’ve loved to see more of Gorr actually butchering gods tho lol
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! After watching it in theatres I definitely did NOT expect the level of hate it got because I genuinely had such a great time watching it
Sameeee
Same. It's a perfect Taika Watiti movie. It has no sense of theme or pacing and is totally chaotic and reactive, just like life. Hilarious one minute, tragic the next.
The Necrosword is the form of the first symbiote called All-Black, the ancestor of Venom. Thor also uses it to fight Galactus, so it's a bridge to Spiderman/Venom/Carnage, and the Fantastic 4.
I was laughing so much when I saw the goats for the first time last night. Using them to bleep out your curses is making me laugh even more.
Whoever edited this is a treasure
Congratulations on your marriage Natalie and also I am glad that you enjoyed this movie.
Its even more fun when you view it as mostly being a story told by Korg.
On a side note I spent the last few weeks to a month literally watching all your reactions so I am getting to watch this one as it comes out 😍
The whole movie felt like Taika masturbation. Absolute garbage
Ragnarök as told by Thor, Love and Thunder as told by Korg.
Me too! I stumbled onto her channel just a couple months ago and it has been a lot of fun!
I really appreciate you doing *GOAT SCREAM* like this. This reaction brought me back to when I first saw this *GOAT SCREAM* in the theatre. As a side note, this lighting is nice, and tell your *GOAT SCREAM* dogs to mind the -On Air- sign.
The reason the sword talks is because it’s a Symbiot! Just a little fun fact for everybody.
thank you nat for taking time on your moon trip to give us this reactions. i hope you and tyler enjoy the rest of the trip.
Even though I think Love & Thunder isn't as good as Ragnarok, it's still pretty fun & chill movie. Also Gorr is an awesome villain. Wish we could've seen more of him
Also congrats on the marriage!!
Gorr could have been used better. With a name like Gorr the God Butcher, after the opening scene, we never actually see him kill any gods. A few dead bodies but no fights at all.
Congrats to you and Tyler. I remember being freshly married. Good times.
A lot of people thought it was too over the top, but the best interpretation that I've heard is that because Korg was narrating the story to a bunch of children, it's super extra and cheesy and campy. As if it were a story being told to children.
The oasis at the beginning only showed up because the god Rapu was there to kill whoever had the necrosword.
Personally I loved everything except for the weird muppet owls at the start, but my sense of humor is very much in line with Taika Waititi's.
Mjolnir was giving her the powers of a god when she was Mighty Thor (because of Odin's invocation of "Whosever holds this hammer, should they be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor", and Thor's invocation that Mjolnir should protect Jane) which included removing any poison in her body. Chemo is poison, whereas cancer is made up of our own cells. So being Mighty Thor was actively making her cancer worse for the times that she wasn't holding the hammer.
CONGRATULATIONS kiddo!!! ❤️ (glad to see you back!)
Haha, your added goat screams made it hilarious all over again. I really enjoyed this one. The absurd comedy balanced the crushing sad moments. It was also probably the best example of an unreliable narrator I've ever seen. I don't think a lot of people who hate this movie really get that a good chunk of the story (especially the entire intro) isn't meant to be actually the way events happened because it's a story told by Korg.
Yeah, its a story told by Korg/Waititi, and thats the movies exact problem. ;)
This is why I love you Natalie! I loved this and I'm so glad you loved it too!
The screaming goats have been my alarm clock and ring tone since the day after this movie came out. It's very good at waking me up, and people laugh every time my phone rings!
Another thing about Jane ending up in Valhalla; the next phase of her superhero journey in the comics was becoming a Valkyrie. The ending scene here sets that up as well, so we may very well get Jane as Valkyrie in the next installment.
This one had a bunch of criticism, but I'm one of the few that loved it. Maybe a few jokes but still a solid and re-watchable movie in my books.
Don’t worry, many loved this movie. The online hatred was just so obnoxiously loud that angry men literally went out of their way to belittle anyone who enjoyed this movie. The movie was fun 😊
When Jane was explaining wormholes to that guy in chemo, she mentioned _Event Horizon._ That movie is actually a great way of showing that, unless you have a way of determining where your destination will be, wormhole travel is very, very, very, very, very dangerous.
PS, I love your reaction to Jane not taking her situation seriously. Another reactor saw that scene and was like, "Stage 5 is death!" 🤣
And it's also notable that the star of Event Horizon (Sam Neill) actually played the actor portraying ODIN in the play at New Asgard towards the beginning of the film.
Btw, can we get a Event Horizon reaction for Helloween? Might be fun to watch.
@@michaelschubert6891 It wouldn't be fun for Natalie, I can tell you that!
- I would have to re-watch it again to be sure, but I am thinking that when Jane said "Event Horizon" she was referring to the scientific term regarding Event Horizens in the folding of space theory, etc, I do not think her saying those words had anything to do with the movie - now I could be mistaken, that is why I said I would have to re-watch to be sure, but, pretty sure it was a science term, not a movie title when she said it.
Of course, as I said I could be mistaken.
But mainly it's a shout-out to Sam Neill.
The goats are legitimately my favourite thing in all of marvel and I refuse to take any arguments at this time. I laughed. Every time. EVERY TIME.
And yeno what, I love that not every MCU film needs to be serious. This does have some deep shit behind all the wack ass comedy about relationships, children conquering their fears and the nature of death, but you don't need to go to that level at all. It's just funny and stupid and a blast to watch and that's kinda okay
Fun facts:
1) a lot of the kids that Gorr kidnapped are played by the actors’ kids. Natalie Portman, Taiki Waititi, Christian Bale & Chris Hemsworth kids were in the group.
2) the girl that plays Gorr’s daughter is Chris Hemsworth’s daughter in real life.
3) The shadow monsters were inspired by a drawing that Taika Watiti’s daughter did of what a scary monster would look like. The other shadow monsters were based on other kids drawings.
Hey Natalie! ♥️ Congratulations on the wedding ✨♥️
I’m so happy that you’re planning to watch Ms. Marvel. It’s such a lovely series but a lot of other RUclipsrs were scared away by the swaths of weirdos and racists that were spamming comments sections about it. Loved this reaction too!!
Man it pisses me off so much how many racists have completely appropriated "comic book culture" as of late. Ms. Marvel, various different versions of Captain Marvel ( including an African American one - that LEAD the Avengers), She-Hulk, and others have been around for a long time, some of them since the 80s or earlier, and were very successful. It's really easy to tell newer comic book fans from old ones when they whine and complain about those characters that have been around for so long.
@@Goomyx1492 Should it be any surprise though. Racists, with their oblivious narcissism, think they are owed the world and no one else but them matter. They are a drag on society and culture that must be overcome.
I really find your knowledge of actors and movie set perspective so refreshing. I also love the intimate way you speak to us (your subscribers). In your intro, I could sense the awkwardness you were feeling and the new sense of realization that everything you were used to was now changed due to your marriage. Congratulations and best wishes on your new life path. May it bring you many more feel shitty with the one you love for many, many years.
Many of us knew the story arc of Jane, it was pretty close to the comics. But it was sad and unexpected that she died in this movie already; though it added the emotion that was needed here. And yes, Christian Bale was such a good villain in this and a lot of us wanted more from him. I enjoyed this movie for what it is, not from what people wanted/expected, and I'm glad you did too.
Congrats on the nuptials!!!
Congrats on the wedding :). I loved this movie, but I'm in the extreme minority in my social circle.
Congrats on the wedding, Nat! I hope you and Tyler are having fun on the mini-moon!
feel like you’re the only reactor I’ve seen who knows Brett Goldstein. His casting as Hercules is one that I’m most excited for because I love him as Roy Kent.
A fun Easter egg, if you feel like going back to look, is when Meik is “taking minutes” after Gorr’s attack, his doodle on the whiteboard is actually an illustration of the entire movie’s plot!
ruclips.net/video/jm3fnzkGF-Q/видео.html These guys do. Though that's because they also reacted to Ted Lasso.
23:20 i jus would like to say that i think it’s absolutely hysterical that they gave Natalie Portman THE star wars line 😭 “ITS A TRAP”😭 shii made me giggle hearing that from Padme 😭
So happy to see you're back 😊 and congratulations on the wedding! Much happiness!
Its interesting to see this movies from the perspective of someone who enjoyed its particular comedic take on the story. It wasn't my cup of tea but I do like seeing it through someone else eyes.
It's nice to see that people can accept not every style of movie will be liked/disliked as them. Gives me a little hope in humanity. 😉
Well, its like, the scenes that I thought were too goofy where the ones that landed the hardest for Nat so, I could see WHY they did it even though I thought it was cringy.
@@Prodigalzson Exactly! While this movie hit very few notes for me, I think Nat loved it and I am glad she got the fun from it and was able to share that.
I feel its a great arch for Thor - he lost his Family / GF / home etc. Happy he got to have a small family of his own. F*$k all haters of this movie. Taika FTW.
Natalie, my Nugget Queen, it is delightful to see you again. I have finally joined the Nugget Army!
Also, congratulations on your nuptials to, now, the Nugget King (Tyler). I'm also glad to see you enjoy Love and Thunder.
In my personal opinion, this was a very fun movie. Yes, I know it is inferior to Ragnarok, but I still wholeheartedly enjoyed the hell out of the movie.
Christian Bale is one of the all-time greats in acting, and he's my personal favorite Batman. So, the fact that he's in the MCU and played Gorr the God Butcher was fascinating.
Do I wish he had more screentime? Absolutely. Do I think he didn't need to be a little comedic? Yes.
But, in my opinion, he's one of the most compelling MCU villains ever. To me, the energy he had in the movie was equivalent to Heath Ledger's Joker in The Dark Knight.
Natalie Portman as Jane Foster aka the Mighty Thor was awesome. While the first two movies didn't really showcase her talents all that well, this movie delivered on everything involving her.
I also adored the hell out of her. I'm sad to see her go, but I'm hopeful for her eventual return.
Chris Hemsworth, despite what others have said, is phenomenal as Thor. Over a decade into playing the character, he has truly found his stride. I can't wait for more classic Thor adventures with him. I know hardcore fans despise this version of Thor, but I have THORoughly enjoyed this character.
Tessa Thompson as King Valkyrie and Taika Waititi as Korg were also great highlights, especially Valkyrie. Now, I admittedly was a little bored with Korg, not gonna lie. Valkyrie, I felt like didn't have a whole lot to do. Plus, I thought she was a little shortchanged in the whole movie.
The Guns N' Roses shout-outs throughout this movie, especially the use of certain songs were incredible. The vibes throughout the movie was special. The music is also beautiful as well. Also, seeing the cosmic entity known as Eternity in live-action was shocking to see. It was also cool to see so many Gods in the MCU. I think they're gonna play a big part in the coming years of the MCU.
Plus, apparently, a majority of kids in this movie was the actual children of Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, Christian Bale and Taika Waititi. In fact, Hemsworth's daughter, India Rose, played Gorr's daughter Love in this movie (she's the daughter that died in the beginning and then resurrected at the end). Also, the wolf lady hybrid in Thor's montage at the beginning was played by Chris Hemsworth's wife. She was the woman kissing Thor in the end credit scene of The Dark World after Natalie Portman departed.
Also, despite what haters say, it is very emotional. The romance in this movie was beautiful. Also, Russell Crowe as Zeus was a highlight. The post-credit scenes, especially the mid-credit tease of Hercules in the upcoming 5th movie, are some of the best in the MCU.
If I have any negatives regarding this movie, it would be the overabundance of the humor (which I personally didn't mind), wonky CGI effects and lack of runtime/character work. I personally think that an extra 10 minutes would have fleshed things out even more (just like Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness).
Also, in my personal opinion, I didn't really like the screaming goats. They annoyed me to no end. I also didn't like that the Guardians of the Galaxy, who were shown a lot in the trailers, had stupid little screentime in the movie. It was like they didn't need to be there.
Other than those complaints, I really, really enjoyed Thor: Love and Thunder as is. I have defended this movie to no end, and will continue to do so regardless of what any detractors say.
I honestly can't wait for Thor 5.

12:44 the shadow beasts that Gorr summoned from the Necrosword are similar to the Venom symbiote. The Necrosword is where that "species" originated.
Fun fact: the girl that plays Gorr's daughter is played by Chris Hemsworth's real life daughter India Hemsworth!
So so glad you liked this one! I feel like it's so hard to find other folks who enjoyed it. While I think it's funny, I think it's also got a very well-written emotional core that people are unfairly dismissing. That scene in Eternity is one of only four or five moments in the MCU to bring tears to my eyes. No one can convince me that this story of rediscovering loves thought long dead isn't beautiful.
Yeah, the problem is that it is a beautiful island in the middle of a sea of bad jokes.
@@grogu9698 To you. Even to a lot of people, I'll grant that. Me? I laughed every damn time those damn goats screamed. I thought the hammer bit was genius. The kids fighting at the end is one of my favorite scenes in the MCU. I like this movie more than Ragnarok because I laugh more AND I care more.
This is one of those instances where I wish they would have stated one thing from the comic that actually made a bit more sense for the cancer storyline. A gross over-simplification: Every time Jane picked up Mjolnir it removed the chemo drugs as "outside poisons" leaving the cancer to its natural progression.
Now WE would say, "why not take out/ fix the cancer too? Duh..." But that's because we can decide to remove malfunctioning body parts. The hammer might view all the parts as natural, even natural malformations that spring up randomly. Mjolnir might not take away a sixth toe, or a cancerous mass, any more than it would take a third arm, a set of wings, or any random mutation, because that's how that person was supposed to be. Or, and hear me out, the hammer might be ignorant of certain details being the weapon of a god. Pretty sure "gods" don't get cancer... Plus, there has to be a dramatic plot device, for "emotional stakes."
Realistically, I can understand them staying far away from "chemo is poison" to explain it, because it's not a good soundbite no matter what the facts are, but "the hammer is saving her and killing her at the same time" just doesn't quite ring true without that added bit of context, imo. Like, that nurse was 2 seconds away from saying anything better, even half fake-medical sounding jargon about how the "good drugs" keep "disappearing" as if by "magic" from her system, but all we got was a "something" and a shrug. And Thor was like, "Ope, must be the hammer." The hammer and...?
"Nope, just the hammer... because." I think they could have replaced one line of dialogue that would have explained it sufficiently, all the details were there. But it's really barely a nitpick, they only omitted a detail, they didn't negate, destroy, or "change the origin irreversibly" and the end result was the same.
And, I swear I saw in the previews for this movie, or a leaked still shot, or a fever dream of imagination, the scene where she first picks up the hammer, levitates in lightning, and gets fully kitted out in front of half of New Asgaard... Ummm WTF? Show us THAT, please. Lol
Congratulations to the newlyweds. :)
Congratulations, Natalie! Best wishes to you and Tyler.
Congratulations on your wedding!! 😄😄 Can't wait to see you react to more marvel content soon! 😄
I loved this movie, just a genuinely a fun movie, a lot of people hate this somehow
i just don't find screaming goats funny
Idk maybe Taika shouldn't have 7 year old humor
Lots of people dont know how to manage their expectations I think. They knew Taika made this and he had more freedom, than in Ragnarok for sure and was more confident in his take of the Thor, so it wasnt a suprise. Im myself of an opinion, that Ragnarok finally made Thor a silly, but still cool guy. I know he is at totally different place now character wise, but he somehow became uncool again xd I would prefer if they kept Natalie Portman for one more movie, for some Avengers team up or something. I know she cant just put cancer away, but it felt a bit rushed to me. I wanted to have more of Mighty Thor in mcu :P
I am hate this movie
Because it's didn't give anything more than coma,dy situations.
@@jyothijose7840 so Jane dying was a comedy scene? Jane in the hospital was a comedy scene?
Congrats to you & Tyler!
Christian Bale is one of my favorite actors. Two movies he's done that are critically unknown, are Equilibrium, and The Machinist. One involves a dystopian future, and the other is a psychological thriller. I'd highly recommend reacting to both.
Thor should have aimed at Zeus's head just like Thanos said.
*Grabs a drink and grabs a snack*
There is a pretty funny bromance between Thor and Hercules in the comics, I can’t wait to see that!
Congrats to you both! I love your vids - you keep me company while i work!
Awesome reaction to another great installment of the MCU (I was never a comic book guy but these movies & shows {mostly} keep knocking it out of the park).
I feel like anyone who didn't like this movie is an enemy of fun. 🤔🧐
Everyone at the theater showing I went to when Hercules was revealed: *loud mixture of gasps and applause*
Natalie when Hercules was revealed: *hysterical laughter*
Wow Congratulations to you and Tyler!!!! Happy newlyWeds
I'm happy you enjoyed it
Imagine if the Guardians knew about Eternity. If they stuck around long enough, either Nebula or Peter would have wished to revive Gamora whereas Drax would bring back his wife and daughter.
I didn't expect for them to be around for much of the movie, but I was hoping to at least get a teaser about where they're headed next. I would assume they're still looking for Gamora on the side, but I know we're getting a holiday special with them soon. It'll tie directly into volume three which arrives May of next year.
Also, if Jane and Heimdall managed to arrive to Valhalla, I wonder if original Loki also made it in. He did try to stop Thanos himself. Maybe that alone qualifies as a warrior's death to grant him entry. At least we still have his analyst double who's no different than the original. He's still our one and the same Loki.
I'm not gonna lie: I was hoping for a cameo from Analyst Loki, but I guess it isn't time for the brothers to reunite just yet. Hopefully we see them together in one of the upcoming Avengers films in 2025. One's gonna be called the Kang Dynasty, and the other Secret Wars. We still have a ways to go, but the Avengers will reassemble.
In the meantime, if you want more Taika Waititi, I recommend checking out this series on HBO Max called Our Flag Means Death. He's an executive producer for the show and he portrays a certain character. A second season is in development.
Gamora's already alive, they took her from 2014
This movie breaks the MCU continuity
I'm glad that guardians of galaxy wasn't there in eternity to wish gamora or drax's family to be alive bc why on earth they should get a wish like that when Thor actually was there and could wish bring Loki, father and mother, his friends and eventually jane back to life but didn't
Some characters should stay dead.
Also I can't treat Loki variant as real Thor's Loki who died fighting thanos. He definitely has to be in Valhalla
i’m glad you enjoyed this movie!! wish i could say the same lmfao but to each their own
Yeah, I think this ranks right at or below Dark World for me.
@@testfire3000 Even below Multiverse of Madness, and that is almost physically impossible.
@@sankharaYT facts😭😭
@@sankharaYT i got multiverse of madness ranked somewhat higher ONLY bc we got comic book power level Scarlet Witch.. an addition to Young Avengers.. and a nod to the X-Men .. literally the ONLY things good ab that movie😭
@@testfire3000 sadly Dark World is above for me only bc i love Loki lmfaoo
The gold that is coming out of the gods is ichor, the blood of the gods. It’s golden and magical and what makes them gods
Congrats, Nat and Tyler! Btw: Using the goat’s screen to bleep out the cursing is inspired, but the doggos chiming in during the climax was perfect!
Controversial take, this is in my top 5 MCU movies, it's such an amazing villain that Christian Bale gives us. The comedy for me is perfect, we've been shown that Thor uses comedy to hide his depression and anxiety, so the movie reflects that, the only time that air of comedy disappears is when Gorr is around, he quite literally sucks the life out of it, the colour if you will. I think it's a great juxtaposition. This is also just a fun 80's rock action movie, a lot of the silly things just added to my enjoyment. Especially everything having to do with the kids. Just imagine being a kid watching this and seeing all those others running around with superpowers! I genuinely don't get the harsh harsh criticism for this movie. in my opinion it's just people hating this entire phase 4 (rightfully so) and then not giving anything a chance cause they're going into it wanting to hate it.
I saw this in theater with my daughter, and that opening...
Sure, she's in her mid-twenties, living on her own, all grown up and independent, but that urge to protect doesn't dissappear just because she's moved away.
Great video as always. Congrats!
Welcome back!!! And congratulations again!🎉
Please watch STAR TREK! Give it a chance! 🖖
I’m torn about this movie. I absolutely love Christian Bale as Gorr and I really loved the climax and ending but the humor missed a lot and Gorr deserved way more screen time. Natalie Portman also seemed so bored as Jane. If her heart was never in it to begin with then she really shouldn’t have come back. Given Phase Four’s track record I suppose this is one of the better movies but I know this could have been so much more.
Bale is great, but Gorr as character is totally wasted in this writing.
its awful
I agree wholeheartedly with you. If they could have toned down the comedy just a little bit, the movie would be just as good as Ragnarok.
@@kevinmalloy1978 kinda the issue I have. The movie went from serious to ridiculous and absurd and did this going from 1-100 multiple times.
I wished they went more in one direction.
@@fzoid3534 yeah. They tore down all the previous character development of Thor for jokes. His dad humbled him in the first movie, but yet he is blasting through roofs and destroying property. The destruction of Mjolinir served to show him he is the God of Thunder, not the God of Hammers. A lesson taught by his now deceased father. That was scrapped for jealousy jokes. I could go on, but I think I made my point. I just wish the jokes didn't make Thor do a 180 on previous movies. The jokes in Ragnorak actually developed him. Like him finally accepting what his brother was, and that led to his brother actually being there for him. Or the jokes about the dysfunctional family (his sister) that were actually true. BUT the movie wasn't as bad as some critics and some people said. I am disappointed because it could have been a great movie instead of a meh MCU movie.
The whole Hemsworth clan were in this, his daughter is his adopted daughter, his sons were kid and teenage versions of Thor, and his wife was the "wolf woman on a woman wolf" LOL
Gorr may be just another one-off Marvel villain, but it was done so well, and it came to a fitting ending.
I didn't laugh when I watched this movie but I did watching your reaction. The screaming goats as your curse block was hilarious. Thanks, Nat and congratulations on the wedding, best of luck to you and Tyler.
Exactly my thoughts! The movie hit none of the marks for me, but Nat was a hoot.
"I just wanted a comedy 😭😭😭"
That's Phase 4 Natalie. Therapy Phase! I love this phase so much. Talking out their problems and using empathy to resolve conflict.
seems like she-hulk is just a comedy at least so far, so I hope shes loving she-hulk (or will love she-hulk when she watches it).
I've been loving phase 4 tbh
Congratulations to you both on your marriage!!
CONGRATS!!!!!!
I am so glad you enjoyed this! I loved this movie both times I saw it in theaters. The amount of hate it gets is BAFFLING to me.
im guessing ur american cuz the humour is AWFUL
its not the movie they hate its the cgi and the constant forced jokes
@@zeeshan6171 Seemed fine to me. I laughed every time. CGI wasn’t as bad as people make it out to be.
@@zeeshan6171 The editing is really what make it a mess o a movie.
I feel like this was definitely geared more towards a younger audience overall, but I enjoy it more with each reaction. When I saw it myself the first time I just thought well not my thing but not bad. Anyway the comics do this too, like a repeating cycle of silly to serious.
The problem is it was so silly that it would appeal to a younger audience, as you say; but the entire soundtrack is Guns 'n Roses which peaked in the very late 80's to maybe 1990.
@@testfire3000 I’m sorry but that’s a ridiculous statement. As if they never use old, classic, retro, etc music in all types of movies for adults and/or kids. Looney Tunes used Bach, Chopin, and Beethoven. Modern cartoons use 80s music all the time.
@@Steef_Lee Granted. Take the Guardians of the Galaxy. Those are all older songs for the sound track. But it fits. And it isn't just one band playing bits of all their top hits. And if you aren't a GnR fan (and how many little kids are?) then the childish humor and older soundtrack don't match. Anyhow, that is my opinion. Personally that is fairly low on my scale of things I didn't like about this movie.
Congratulations Natalie!!🎉🎊👏🏽👏🏽
Congrats on the wedding and trip!!
