What is this???? This is what happend when you let a good Indy filmmaker do a 200 million$ movie without a script and on a subject he know nothing about, with two lines. Jane has cancer and she became Thor, GodButcher is killing some gods. That' s what this is.
Jane’s hair and height change is part of a transformation when she wields the hammer. In the comics she generally wears the helmet while transformed as well, so it’s not as clear it’s Jane to anyone who might know her. Also transforming actually makes her cancer worse because when she turns into Thor the godly powers that come with it also includes undoing the radiation from her chemotherapy. Her transformed body doesn’t have the cancer, but since the radiation is not natively part of her it remains just long enough to be completely removed, so when she turns back the cancer is back and the effects of the radiation from her chemo are gone.
Taika Waititi (director, writer, and voice of Korg) said he's a been a longtime fan of the Guns N' Roses and that "it's always been a dream of [his]" to feature them somehow in his work. He also joked "we just wanted to spend as much money as we possibly could on some songs."
I think it's important Love got Stormbreaker in the end, because Mjolnir doesn't have the ability to summon the bifrost and Stormbreaker does. This way, if they ever get in trouble Love can use it to escape while Thor runs interference or deals with the conflict they found themselves in.
5:00 This sword is All-Black the Necrosword. In the comics, it was the very first symbiote (the thing that Venom is), manifested from the shadow of the evil deity Knull, and tempered inside the head of the Celestial now known as Knowhere (the floating head planet that the Guardians of the Galaxy made their HQ, where the Collector's Museum was). 9:30 Jane was among those who got snapped by Thanos, and was diagnosed with cancer shortly after being blipped back. Avengers: Endgame/The Battle of Earth happened in Fall 2023 (after the five-year timeskip from Infinity War's end and Endgame's prologue). Thor: Love & Thunder takes place in Fall 2025. 11:40 Yet again, Luke Hemsworth makes an appearance as the Thor Actor. 18:15 So... Jane is the new Thor (officially called "Mighty Thor"). And getting taller, more muscular, and her hair becoming blonde-ish and long is all part of the transformation. This and her cancer storyline is taken directly from the 2014 Thor comic. 25:25 Yes to both. So... when Jane transforms, the divine power of Thor eliminates all foreign substances/poisons (such as chemo and radiation) from her body. This would normally cure any normal sickness, but cancer is something that's not considered "foreign" by our body, so transforming doesn't get rid of it when she transforms back. Instead, the elimination of the chemo and radiation actually accelerates the cancer. 26:00 No, Jane transformed back for a moment. It seems she isn't able to maintain the transformation indefinitely (since she isn't actually Thor). 29:50 Yes. Quite a few, actually. I recognized a few, and looked up some others (below). 29:55 If you know anything about actual Greek history... this was actually very on-point. 32:22 Eternity is referring to an actual deity here: Eternity, one of the three Cosmic Entities (the other two being Infinity and Death). 33:25 All Gods can bleed gold like that. But it's mostly just the ones who care about being looked at as Gods that do that. Thor *could* make his blood look like that if he wanted. 43:20 Incorrect. Stormbreaker does not have a "loyalty/worthiness enchantment" on it like Mjolnir does. The only thing keeping Stormbreaker from being wielded by others is how powerful it is. But Gorr is a God-level entity, so he can wield Stormbreaker without risk. 47:30 This is a rare instance of Thor using Odin's powers he inherited when Odin died. 56:20 Even better when you learn that Love is played by Chris Hemsworth's actual daughter, India Rose Hemsworth. 56:55 Yes. So... Thor probably did this for multiple reasons. 1) Thor is far more attached to Mjolnir, since he's had it for thousands of years, and received it from his father, Odin. 2) Love is a COSMIC ENTITY (on the same level as Eternity, Infinity, Death, Entropy, Eon, the One Above All, the Living Tribunal, and The Watcher). 57:50 MCU Hercules is played by Brett Goldstein Gods/deities seen in Omnipotence City: Zeus Panhellenios, Greco-Roman God of Lightning Minerva (aka. Athena Parthenos), Greek Goddess of Wisdom and War, daughter of Zeus Artemis, Greek Goddess of Childbirth, Vegetation, and Animals Quetzalcóatl, Aztec God of Life Iscallis, Iberian Goddess of Fertility Haumea, Maori Goddess of Childbirth Chaac, Mayan God of Rain and Abundance Amatsu-Mikaboshi, Shinto (Japanese) Goddess of the Dead Yu Huang, Tao God (aka. the Jade Emperor of Chinese mythology) Bast/Bastet, Egyptian/Wakandan Panther Goddess (the Goddess that created the first Black Panther by leading him to the Heart-Shaped Herb) Also, since the Marvel universe is expanding upwards into cosmic territory, here's the hierarchy (not naming ALL of them, there are FAR too many, so I'll just mention the ones we've seen/heard of so far, or are likely to see soon): *Multiverse Level (exist outside all universes)* - The One Above All (the most literal God of the Marvel Multiverse, often portrayed with the likeness of Stan Lee in the comics). - The Living Tribunal (the Arbiter/Judge of the Multiverse). *Universe Level (ie. Entities that are the extensions/parts of the Universe itself, not merely things that exist within it)* - Eternity - Infinity - Entropy - Death - Galactus *Within the Universe* - Cosmic Entities - Watchers (like Uatu, from the "What if...?" show) - Celestials (Tiamut, Arishem, Ashema, Eson, Oneg, Ziran, Hargen, and Jemiah) - Elders (Grandmaster, Collector) - Cosmic Sentients - Ego - Elder Gods - Kronos - Gaea - Izanagi - Izanami - Vishanti - Gods - Earth Pantheons - Heliopians (Ennead/Egyptian Gods) - Olympians (Greek Gods) - Asgardians (Norse Gods) - Celestial Genetic Manipulations - Eternals - Deviants - Mutants - Kree Genetic Manipulations - Inhumans And then at the bottom are the normal, mortal races (Terrans/Humans, Atlanteans, Kree, Skrull, etc.)
Fun fact, Jane whispering something unknown in Thor's ear at the end is a call back to the comics as the words made him unworthy and began the Mighty Thor mystery.
Two things: 1. Apparently both Chris Hemsworth and Taika Waititi were surprised to see the "Thor Will Return" card at the end of the movie as they thought that this was the last Thor movie. 2. When they did the Jane Foster/Mighty Thor plotline in the comics, there was a long period of no one knowing who this new Thor was because she was always wearing the helmet. Thor was going to every woman who knew to see if they were Mighty Thor and Jane (in her sick bed) even denied being Mighty Thor. My favorite scene during this era was when Thor went to check if Sif was Mighty Thor and he's kind of hedging and when Sif figures out why he is there she gets pissed a basically says that next time he sees her he better be armed and Thor pulls out his list of suspects (which includes every woman he knows and Loki) and puts a question mark next to Sif's name.
For what it is worth, Chris Hemsworth is an impressive 6'3, a full foot taller than Natalie Portman. For the scenes where Jane had the power of Thor, CGI was used to make her look about 5'9. What is more impressive, as confirmed by set photos, is that Natalie Portman's muscles were NOT CGI in those scenes.
yes she is very small and tiny in real life, and she talked about doing movies like this always having to be on platforms, ramps and boxes to seem taller. She's only 5'3, so they wanted to make her look taller in her "thor" form, so she had to walk on raised areas that were designed for the scene. She also had to bulk up some because normally she's very skinny, so she worked like 10 months to get bigger and look in shape for the role.
I don't think that the goats were an actual gift. I think they were a "gift" that Thor was "required" to take to "thank" him for his "service" that involved destroying their Temple
In Marvel Quetzalcoatl the Aztec God is half Brother to Thor. They have the same Mother. The Earth Goddess Gaea. She has different names in different pantheons. They have fought and protected each other. And to save ppl and the Earth.
One of the running threads I like in this film is the sense that the magical weapons have, not exactly intelligence, but a sense of agency. Like Mjolnir is being passive-aggressive when it twitches towards Thor but then stays with Jane, while Stormbreaker is jealous and insecure about Thor hanging around with his previous weapon. And Thunderbolt was all, "You've been using me for party tricks for 3000 years, I'm going with the guy who wants to use me as a weapon. Bye!" My headcanon is the enchantment on those improvised weapons remains. And in years to come, that little girl with the rabbit will become a young woman, who donates the rabbit to a children's home or charity, hoping it will give other kids the comfort it gave her during her ordeal. And with that agency of magical weapons, it will find its way into the hands of other endangered children - who want to go home, or want their home to be safe - and those children will (for a limited time only) possess the power of Thor.
Raising the child of your enemy is one of my favorite tropes. It's built on the hope of the next generation being better, but the realism that adults can't always become better.
Did you notice that Thor’s back tattoo says “RIP Loki” 🥺. Also Gorr took the kids to use as bait for Thor because Gorr needed Thor’s axe. Also notice Jane ended up in Valhalla even though she didn’t die in the battle against Gorr. Rather she ended up there because she died in the battle against her cancer.
The hammer turns Jane into Lady Thor who is blonde and taller. Even Valkyrie said Jane was a Viking now. When she puts down the hammer she returns to her cancer ridden body.
I have a small theory that Jane's 'secret catchphrase' she whispers to Thor at the end was "For Love and Thunder!" So he incorporates that phrase into his daughters and his own new names 'Love' and 'Thunder' to honor her
I think this movie would’ve gone down a lot better with certain people if they leaned more into the idea that what we’re seeing is “Korg’s version”. Make it almost like The Princess Bride.
I think when she uses the hammer to become the mighty Thor aka female Thor she becomes taller and her hair becomes blonde... I guess those are part of thors god powers
33:28 That gold liquid is ichor - the fluid that gods' bodies produce in place of blood as a result of their diet of ambrosia and nectar. It's what makes them immortal and is regularly referenced in ancient Greek mythology, with a variety of magical properties. It was nice to see somebody had done their homework during that fight scene. ^_^
15 years ago, the goats would have worked. But it didn't, and they kept trying throughout the movie, which wasn't getting any funnier and made it worse.
My problems with the movie aside, I really do appreciate the STUNNING visuals, especially with the two main fight scenes with Gorr and it was great to see Jane (Natalie Portman) back.
Jane's tall and buff when Thor and regular her when not. She really got jacked for the role, but they made her taller with movie magic for the Thor scenes and she always has her arms covered in something baggy when she's regular Jane with cancer so you can't see her jacked arms and shoulders.
I think she's taller when in the Lady Thor form, like the Hulk she physically swells up some, just not as noticeable. The hair being the most obvious, but she's basically in god mode.
I enjoy this movie a lot. I think I’m the only person I know who prefers it to Ragnarok. It’s got a *LOT* of jokes that don’t land, but whenever it decides to play for drama it *really* works imo.
I love watching reaction videos.. But I'm only hearing their voice while I'm looking at the movie.. You are the only one I love to watch instead of the movie..❤
I’m guessing they got a bulk price on guns n roses license fees. Also, Axel is a Scandinavian name… maybe Taika Waititi saw one of those singer / goat scream mashup song clips with Axl Rose and then couldn’t get the idea out of his head till he made this movie.
I love how they portray zues, same exact in greek mythology. His lazy,playboy, and a bit arrogant.. Yes , in comic, there a version were thor and hercules fought, but they ended besties to stop wanda/doom
I like an expression I heard, "there is a good film inside this somewhere". I would love to see a snider-cut of it, but unfortunately, Waititi made it from start to finish.
Best I can figure, like Multiverse of Madness was along the lines of a Marvel horror movie, this is supposed to be along the lines of a Marvel 80's rock video and what is more 80s rock than Guns and Roses, hence why the keep popping up in the movie.
The reason Jane looks taller and has blonde hair is cos she’s turned into a Thor. When she has Thor powers it just makes her look more like Thor so makes her taller gives her blonde hair all that lot but that’s the only cgi they did to her. She worked out a lot to get the physique
I might be wrong because I only thought of this just now. 2 years after I watched the movie. But it seems like Gorr kidnap the children because he wanted them to see how useless their gods are. The new generation that will stop believing in their gods
No Marvel's "Shang-Chi" reaction❓ ... That one was great, a wonderful adventure❕ It adds a new flavor into the MCU and Shag-Chi will be a continuing great addition to the Avengers! More importantly, you'd enjoy that movie ride!😉
I saw that one in theatres and when i filmed a rewatch the files got corrupted so i thought itd be too disingenuous to watch it for a THIRD time for youtube. It was a great movie though!
Overall i enjoyed this movie, I'm just a little disappointed that they couldn't do more with Gorr the God Butcher, the Necro sword or Eternity compared to the stories in the comics. But also that would be impossible to contain in just a movie or impractical to make more, so I'm satisfied enough.
It definitely felt like Taika Waititi was a bit “much” with this but I don’t think it’s as horrible as some people made it out to be. I like Waititi’s other movies so much that I’m okay with him having one film I don’t like (what director doesn’t have at least one bad movie?). The things I unequivocally like are the fight in the shadowy world, Christian Bale as Gorr, and the bittersweet handling of Thor and Jane’s relationship
So, I hate to say it, but I'm one of the people who did not appreciate this movie. Like, there's a lot of good material in it, don't get me wrong, but Taika Waititi (both the director and Korg) just went too off of the rails with it in my opinion. Ragnarok was great with his sense of humor in it, but this one just... pushed his sense of humor too far. Reading about a lot of the behind-the-scenes stuff really bothered me, too. The production was rushed, the script was only about half finished when they started production, and the visual artists were really just... completely shafted, and given nowhere near enough to actually do their jobs properly. Not only that, but after the movie came out, he was snarky about the bad CGI in the movie in a way that was pretty insulting to the artists. On top of that, after the movie came out, Chris Hemsworth was saying that he was done playing Thor, and would only come back in order to close out his story... and that he would never work with another "Mad Genius Director" again. Clearly, the filming experience was just that toxic, and... knowing all of that has really soured me on the movie as a whole @_@
This is a weird one, and though it's not as good as Ragnarok, it is definitely better than the first 2 Thor solo movies, in my opinion. I could rewatch this over Dark World any day, but I understand if fans were put off by it. Like I said, it's a weird movie. One moment it's so silly and campy the next stuff is deadly serious. Discussions of faith and worshipping divine beings, never meeting your heroes, and Thor himself clearly still being affected by everything that happened during the Infinity era. This felt like Thor was actually hanging out with his friends and not coworkers like he did with the Avengers, and this goofy movie really gave us that really touching heartfelt ending, like that's some good emotional stuff there, WTF movie.
I have to tell you... you aren't actually caught up, not even with some of the best stuff: Daredevil is part of the MCU, and IMHO, it's one of the best TV series. And season 1 of Jessica Jones is 'Can't Miss'.
As far as the GNR they just went way too far with it like the comedy in this movie. They used Led Zeppelin in the last movie to great effect so they thought why not do the same thing with GNR in this film but take it up 10 notches. Of course they went way too far with it. Also, a lot of the tone of the movie is inspired by the animated movie Heavy Metal, with only a little bit of the nudity.
The only part where the GNR really hit for me was when all the kids get powers and they start killing the shadow monsters to that guitar solo. That shit was fire. Everything else was just kind of “fine”.
Happy marvel movie day!! 🎉
Dang your already on Thor 4... Your going be running low on Mabel movies soon 😢...
@@maxvickrey4357 oh nooo /s
Are we going to get any more Doctor Who or is it being replaced with Torchwood? 4 episodes are hidden at the moment
What is this???? This is what happend when you let a good Indy filmmaker do a 200 million$ movie without a script and on a subject he know nothing about, with two lines. Jane has cancer and she became Thor, GodButcher is killing some gods. That' s what this is.
pls react next to the movie Ninja Assassin
"What kind of gift are these screaming goats?"
The kind of gift you give to the man who destroyed your gigantic temple, I think
A gift from someone who is familiar with Norse mythology.
It's like when I try to be "nice" to my sister so I give her 5 year old son a drum set or a really loud toy. :)
Yep, a nice backhanded gift. 😏
Jane’s hair and height change is part of a transformation when she wields the hammer. In the comics she generally wears the helmet while transformed as well, so it’s not as clear it’s Jane to anyone who might know her.
Also transforming actually makes her cancer worse because when she turns into Thor the godly powers that come with it also includes undoing the radiation from her chemotherapy. Her transformed body doesn’t have the cancer, but since the radiation is not natively part of her it remains just long enough to be completely removed, so when she turns back the cancer is back and the effects of the radiation from her chemo are gone.
It’s a good twist that Thor receives the same reaction when he confronts the rest of the gods that Gorr received in the beginning of the film.
Taika Waititi (director, writer, and voice of Korg) said he's a been a longtime fan of the Guns N' Roses and that "it's always been a dream of [his]" to feature them somehow in his work. He also joked "we just wanted to spend as much money as we possibly could on some songs."
FYI: the screaming goats are actually part of Thor’s mythology, and did pull his chariot.
Its Tooth Grinder & Gap Tooth!
I think it's important Love got Stormbreaker in the end, because Mjolnir doesn't have the ability to summon the bifrost and Stormbreaker does. This way, if they ever get in trouble Love can use it to escape while Thor runs interference or deals with the conflict they found themselves in.
The reason they gave such different time frames for how long it's been since they've seen each other is because Jane got blipped. 21:02
5:00 This sword is All-Black the Necrosword. In the comics, it was the very first symbiote (the thing that Venom is), manifested from the shadow of the evil deity Knull, and tempered inside the head of the Celestial now known as Knowhere (the floating head planet that the Guardians of the Galaxy made their HQ, where the Collector's Museum was).
9:30 Jane was among those who got snapped by Thanos, and was diagnosed with cancer shortly after being blipped back. Avengers: Endgame/The Battle of Earth happened in Fall 2023 (after the five-year timeskip from Infinity War's end and Endgame's prologue). Thor: Love & Thunder takes place in Fall 2025.
11:40 Yet again, Luke Hemsworth makes an appearance as the Thor Actor.
18:15 So... Jane is the new Thor (officially called "Mighty Thor"). And getting taller, more muscular, and her hair becoming blonde-ish and long is all part of the transformation. This and her cancer storyline is taken directly from the 2014 Thor comic.

26:00 No, Jane transformed back for a moment. It seems she isn't able to maintain the transformation indefinitely (since she isn't actually Thor).
29:50 Yes. Quite a few, actually. I recognized a few, and looked up some others (below).
29:55 If you know anything about actual Greek history... this was actually very on-point.
32:22 Eternity is referring to an actual deity here: Eternity, one of the three Cosmic Entities (the other two being Infinity and Death).
33:25 All Gods can bleed gold like that. But it's mostly just the ones who care about being looked at as Gods that do that. Thor *could* make his blood look like that if he wanted.
43:20 Incorrect. Stormbreaker does not have a "loyalty/worthiness enchantment" on it like Mjolnir does. The only thing keeping Stormbreaker from being wielded by others is how powerful it is. But Gorr is a God-level entity, so he can wield Stormbreaker without risk.
47:30 This is a rare instance of Thor using Odin's powers he inherited when Odin died.
56:20 Even better when you learn that Love is played by Chris Hemsworth's actual daughter, India Rose Hemsworth.
56:55 Yes. So... Thor probably did this for multiple reasons. 1) Thor is far more attached to Mjolnir, since he's had it for thousands of years, and received it from his father, Odin. 2) Love is a COSMIC ENTITY (on the same level as Eternity, Infinity, Death, Entropy, Eon, the One Above All, the Living Tribunal, and The Watcher).
57:50 MCU Hercules is played by Brett Goldstein
Gods/deities seen in Omnipotence City:
Zeus Panhellenios, Greco-Roman God of Lightning
Minerva (aka. Athena Parthenos), Greek Goddess of Wisdom and War, daughter of Zeus
Artemis, Greek Goddess of Childbirth, Vegetation, and Animals
Quetzalcóatl, Aztec God of Life
Iscallis, Iberian Goddess of Fertility

Yu Huang, Tao God (aka. the Jade Emperor of Chinese mythology)

Also, since the Marvel universe is expanding upwards into cosmic territory, here's the hierarchy (not naming ALL of them, there are FAR too many, so I'll just mention the ones we've seen/heard of so far, or are likely to see soon):
*Multiverse Level (exist outside all universes)*
- The One Above All (the most literal God of the Marvel Multiverse, often portrayed with the likeness of Stan Lee in the comics).
- The Living Tribunal (the Arbiter/Judge of the Multiverse).
*Universe Level (ie. Entities that are the extensions/parts of the Universe itself, not merely things that exist within it)*
- Eternity
- Infinity
- Entropy
- Death
- Galactus
*Within the Universe*
- Cosmic Entities
- Watchers (like Uatu, from the "What if...?" show)
- Celestials (Tiamut, Arishem, Ashema, Eson, Oneg, Ziran, Hargen, and Jemiah)
- Elders (Grandmaster, Collector)
- Cosmic Sentients
- Ego
- Elder Gods
- Kronos
- Gaea
- Izanagi
- Izanami
- Vishanti
- Gods
- Earth Pantheons
- Heliopians (Ennead/Egyptian Gods)
- Olympians (Greek Gods)
- Asgardians (Norse Gods)
- Celestial Genetic Manipulations
- Eternals
- Deviants
- Mutants
- Kree Genetic Manipulations
- Inhumans
And then at the bottom are the normal, mortal races (Terrans/Humans, Atlanteans, Kree, Skrull, etc.)
They should’ve shown a montage of Gorr battling several gods to show how powerful and dangerous he truly is.
Gorr’s daughter Love, is Chris Hemsworth’s real life daughter.
Indeed, and I think one of the younger Thors in Korg's intro story was Chris Hemsworth's son.
And another of his sons is one of the Asgardian kids.
And the wolf-woman in the intro is his wife.
Fun fact, Jane whispering something unknown in Thor's ear at the end is a call back to the comics as the words made him unworthy and began the Mighty Thor mystery.

Jane gets bigger and stronger and more similar looking to Thor when she lifts the hammer. That happens to anyone who is worthy of Mjolnir in comics.
For what it is worth, Chris Hemsworth is an impressive 6'3, a full foot taller than Natalie Portman. For the scenes where Jane had the power of Thor, CGI was used to make her look about 5'9.

Had the pleasure of working on this film in Sydney!
One of the running threads I like in this film is the sense that the magical weapons have, not exactly intelligence, but a sense of agency. Like Mjolnir is being passive-aggressive when it twitches towards Thor but then stays with Jane, while Stormbreaker is jealous and insecure about Thor hanging around with his previous weapon. And Thunderbolt was all, "You've been using me for party tricks for 3000 years, I'm going with the guy who wants to use me as a weapon. Bye!"
My headcanon is the enchantment on those improvised weapons remains. And in years to come, that little girl with the rabbit will become a young woman, who donates the rabbit to a children's home or charity, hoping it will give other kids the comfort it gave her during her ordeal. And with that agency of magical weapons, it will find its way into the hands of other endangered children - who want to go home, or want their home to be safe - and those children will (for a limited time only) possess the power of Thor.
This film was made for me. I have a sick obsession with goat screams.
Raising the child of your enemy is one of my favorite tropes.
It's built on the hope of the next generation being better, but the realism that adults can't always become better.
at 29:42 you wondered if there were any actual Gods that we know, I noticed Aztec God "the feathered snake" Quetzalcoatl hanging out in the crowd 🙂
When I hear Russell Crowe speak as Zeus, I feel like ordering gyros with extra tzatziki sauce. 😅
Remember when eating gyros with extra tzatziki front of others ask others: "Are you not entertained?" to make full Crowe experience.
Emme: "What's that gonna do?"
Thor "The Power OF THOR!"
Best transition I've seen in any reaction video.
Did you notice that Thor’s back tattoo says “RIP Loki” 🥺. Also Gorr took the kids to use as bait for Thor because Gorr needed Thor’s axe. Also notice Jane ended up in Valhalla even though she didn’t die in the battle against Gorr. Rather she ended up there because she died in the battle against her cancer.
The hammer turns Jane into Lady Thor who is blonde and taller. Even Valkyrie said Jane was a Viking now. When she puts down the hammer she returns to her cancer ridden body.
"I love how some colour comes back, I love the accents." You mean...axe-cents?
I have a small theory that Jane's 'secret catchphrase' she whispers to Thor at the end was "For Love and Thunder!"
So he incorporates that phrase into his daughters and his own new names 'Love' and 'Thunder' to honor her
this movie has grown on me after watching a couple reactors videos, also helps knowing its Korgs version of events 😂
Same here.
I think this movie would’ve gone down a lot better with certain people if they leaned more into the idea that what we’re seeing is “Korg’s version”.
Make it almost like The Princess Bride.
@@ThePonderer they also forgot korg had a mum in the first movie
Just wished they didn’t just use Gorr and threw him away. His story, and Thor’s, in the comics was sooooo good.
I think when she uses the hammer to become the mighty Thor aka female Thor she becomes taller and her hair becomes blonde... I guess those are part of thors god powers
33:28 That gold liquid is ichor - the fluid that gods' bodies produce in place of blood as a result of their diet of ambrosia and nectar. It's what makes them immortal and is regularly referenced in ancient Greek mythology, with a variety of magical properties. It was nice to see somebody had done their homework during that fight scene. ^_^
Some people really hated this one, but I thought the screaming goats were worth the price of admission.

50:02 As I’ve said before, “Eat my hammer!” gains a lot with the right anger behind it.
33:25 The gold blood type stuff that flows through god's veins is called Ichor.
Jane's tall and buff when Thor and regular her when not. She really got jacked for the role, but they made her taller with movie magic for the Thor scenes and she always has her arms covered in something baggy when she's regular Jane with cancer so you can't see her jacked arms and shoulders.
15:04 - and the reason why electric guitars are often called axes in rock/metal culture 😊🤘
I really liked this movie when I saw it in the theaters. Can't believe it's been two years! I want another movie with Love and Thunder
Turns out the Shadowlands is just Kansas

I enjoy this movie a lot. I think I’m the only person I know who prefers it to Ragnarok.
It’s got a *LOT* of jokes that don’t land, but whenever it decides to play for drama it *really* works imo.
I love watching reaction videos.. But I'm only hearing their voice while I'm looking at the movie.. You are the only one I love to watch instead of the movie..❤
Ragnarok had a eighties theme and love and thunder was a nineties theme... hence all the GNR😎
It's like this. If scrawny Steve had picked up the hammer, he would have looked like Captain America. Jane just got a Thor Upgrade.
In Norse mythology Thor has a chariot pulled by goats named (rough translation), Tooth Grinder & Gap Tooth
Hi Emme, Love & Thunder are the name of them, Love is daughter of Gorr & Thunder is Thor the God Of Thunder
She had to walk up a ramp to shoot 😂
By far the most underrated Marvel movie.
The girl who played Love is actually Chris Hemsworths daughter
Some people don't appreciate Taika's humour. Maybe it helps if you're from Australia or NZ.
I think we can all agree that this movie could have used more Gorr and less jokes. A fun movie, but could have been better
I’m guessing they got a bulk price on guns n roses license fees. Also, Axel is a Scandinavian name… maybe Taika Waititi saw one of those singer / goat scream mashup song clips with Axl Rose and then couldn’t get the idea out of his head till he made this movie.
I love how they portray zues, same exact in greek mythology. His lazy,playboy, and a bit arrogant..
Yes , in comic, there a version were thor and hercules fought, but they ended besties to stop wanda/doom
Awesome movie and reaction 😎 I wish the movie had more Guns and Roses songs and references 😭
I feel like they only had Christian Bale for like a week...would have LOVED to see more of Gorr
Her physical appearance changes when she changes to Thor. That's why her hair changes and she is taller.
I like an expression I heard, "there is a good film inside this somewhere". I would love to see a snider-cut of it, but unfortunately, Waititi made it from start to finish.
Best I can figure, like Multiverse of Madness was along the lines of a Marvel horror movie, this is supposed to be along the lines of a Marvel 80's rock video and what is more 80s rock than Guns and Roses, hence why the keep popping up in the movie.
Gorr had to bring the kids with him because it's really hard to find a proper babysitter on such short notice
Fun Fact: This is the first Thor solo movie where Loki does not make an appearance (though he is mentioned on the back of his tattoos)
and shown in the flashbacks during Korg's story at the beginning
@@VisJordanMusic Good call
With all the gods that appear in this film, it is worth mentioning that One is missing. I'll let y'all guess.
Always a joy watching your reactions. I really dug this movie and I loved the humor and heart. Guns equal thunder Roses equal Love ❤️ 😍
Did anybody else get a legitimate Old Spice ad while watching this reaction?
Alternative title: gorr curse and daughter
(The real/norse) Thors chariot was pulled by goats so it's a nice touch
The goat screams do quite suit the guns n roses soundtrack
The reason Jane looks taller and has blonde hair is cos she’s turned into a Thor. When she has Thor powers it just makes her look more like Thor so makes her taller gives her blonde hair all that lot but that’s the only cgi they did to her. She worked out a lot to get the physique
I think Jane just gets taller when she's a Thor?
This is definitely what I figured
Taika Waititi wrote/directed this while being finger fed shrooms and grapes by Rita. Only way the plot makes sense
Jane Fonda not Jane Thunder. Jane Fonda is the name of an actress
I might be wrong because I only thought of this just now. 2 years after I watched the movie. But it seems like Gorr kidnap the children because he wanted them to see how useless their gods are. The new generation that will stop believing in their gods
Director Taika Waititi loves Guns N' Roses
No Marvel's "Shang-Chi" reaction❓ ... That one was great, a wonderful adventure❕ It adds a new flavor into the MCU and Shag-Chi will be a continuing great addition to the Avengers!
More importantly, you'd enjoy that movie ride!😉
I saw that one in theatres and when i filmed a rewatch the files got corrupted so i thought itd be too disingenuous to watch it for a THIRD time for youtube. It was a great movie though!
@@emme cool!
The Guns N Roses "propaganda" I'm pretty sure is simply that the director really likes the band, and so decided to theme the movie around them.
I started wathcing this movie and I thought: "I'll see if there are reactions". I search it and i See this one uploaded 3 hours ago lol
They built him a ramp
"That....sword"......
ah.... erm.......sigh.
Overall i enjoyed this movie, I'm just a little disappointed that they couldn't do more with Gorr the God Butcher, the Necro sword or Eternity compared to the stories in the comics. But also that would be impossible to contain in just a movie or impractical to make more, so I'm satisfied enough.
Taika Waititi loves G'n'R...
I don’t get why people hate goats so much, I find them funny… screaming children is a sound I can’t stand
"Guns 'N Roses propaganda" HAHAHA!
Great video. Don't forget the Guardians Christmas special before you arrive at Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 3! 😊
I have watched that! It’s up on my channel :D
Thanks. I forgot to mention (if no one else has). The little girl in this film is actually Chris Hemsworth's daughter!
27:14 Hey, catchphrases are important! You have yours at the end of every video. 😉
If you need to take down a bunch of gods, who else would you get but Batman?
love and thunder, to me, was a thor movie doing a parody of a thor movie. which is fitting because it was a story told by korg
It definitely felt like Taika Waititi was a bit “much” with this but I don’t think it’s as horrible as some people made it out to be. I like Waititi’s other movies so much that I’m okay with him having one film I don’t like (what director doesn’t have at least one bad movie?).
The things I unequivocally like are the fight in the shadowy world, Christian Bale as Gorr, and the bittersweet handling of Thor and Jane’s relationship
Glad you enjoyed it, movie was not well received when it came out.
Guns-N-Roses decent????
They’re LEGENDARY!!! Your youth is showing….respectfully
So, I hate to say it, but I'm one of the people who did not appreciate this movie. Like, there's a lot of good material in it, don't get me wrong, but Taika Waititi (both the director and Korg) just went too off of the rails with it in my opinion. Ragnarok was great with his sense of humor in it, but this one just... pushed his sense of humor too far. Reading about a lot of the behind-the-scenes stuff really bothered me, too. The production was rushed, the script was only about half finished when they started production, and the visual artists were really just... completely shafted, and given nowhere near enough to actually do their jobs properly. Not only that, but after the movie came out, he was snarky about the bad CGI in the movie in a way that was pretty insulting to the artists. On top of that, after the movie came out, Chris Hemsworth was saying that he was done playing Thor, and would only come back in order to close out his story... and that he would never work with another "Mad Genius Director" again. Clearly, the filming experience was just that toxic, and... knowing all of that has really soured me on the movie as a whole @_@
Emmy you're so cute I love your reactions!
I just had a thought. I wonder, if we see Thor in future movies, will we also see the goats too? Would be so cool. 😂
This is a weird one, and though it's not as good as Ragnarok, it is definitely better than the first 2 Thor solo movies, in my opinion. I could rewatch this over Dark World any day, but I understand if fans were put off by it. Like I said, it's a weird movie. One moment it's so silly and campy the next stuff is deadly serious. Discussions of faith and worshipping divine beings, never meeting your heroes, and Thor himself clearly still being affected by everything that happened during the Infinity era. This felt like Thor was actually hanging out with his friends and not coworkers like he did with the Avengers, and this goofy movie really gave us that really touching heartfelt ending, like that's some good emotional stuff there, WTF movie.
I have to tell you... you aren't actually caught up, not even with some of the best stuff: Daredevil is part of the MCU, and IMHO, it's one of the best TV series. And season 1 of Jessica Jones is 'Can't Miss'.
I'll second the Jessica Jones. The artistic parallels to a certain kind of relationship are masterful (intentionally vague to avoid spoilers).
As far as the GNR they just went way too far with it like the comedy in this movie. They used Led Zeppelin in the last movie to great effect so they thought why not do the same thing with GNR in this film but take it up 10 notches. Of course they went way too far with it.
Also, a lot of the tone of the movie is inspired by the animated movie Heavy Metal, with only a little bit of the nudity.
The only part where the GNR really hit for me was when all the kids get powers and they start killing the shadow monsters to that guitar solo. That shit was fire. Everything else was just kind of “fine”.
Love get to use stormbreaker because she isn’t worthy of mijolnir
