THOR: LOVE AND THUNDER is the GOAT

I feel the need to say that I don’t think this is actually the goat in terms of the greatest of all the marvel movies. I just wanted to say goat in the title because of the goats in the movie! 😂
Some of y’all were a bit too upset about that in the DMs 😂❤❤❤❤
I got the joke Alex. It was always about the goats! 😂
Well ya because it's one of the worst marvel movies after captain marvel of course
I thought that was a great and obvious play on the word. The only thing you can trust about people is that some just aren’t going to get ‘it’.
Good thank goodness you stated this cause uh the gatekeepers wouldn’t like that 😅
Just do you and enjoy stuff as usual , regardless of what we may think . That said we'll have a boxing match if you like F4 (2015) :p
Alex, Stormbreaker doesn't work like Mjolnir, to hold Mjolnir you have to be worthy because Odin made the spell in the 1st movie, but to hold Stormbreaker you only have to be powerful enough
Well put. Thanos grabbed it I guess Alex forgot that
I literally came here just to say this.
I think it is because Stormbreaker wasn’t made with the handle it was supposed to be. It was made with Groot’s arm, so it doesn’t have the complete magic.
@@eric43085 But nobody can use the powers of Stormbreaker.
@@averagenoah like the first commentor said, Mjolnir cant be held unless worthy because of Odin's spell, and that spell also gives whoever is worthy the powers of Thor. Stormbreaker has no such spell upon it.
"This looks like something out of a kid's nightmare!"
You're more right than you think! When they were making the movie, they brought in a bunch of the cast & crew's kids and sat them down at a table and handed them all black crayons and paper. The effects team told the kids to draw the scariest shadow-monster they could think of. Then the effects team used those drawings as the starting point for the monster designs.
That's awesome.
I remember seeing that in the Assembled episode tied to this film.
that's actually brilliant
The kid who played Gor's daughter was Chris Hemsworth's real-life daughter, so their chemistry in that last scene probably came pretty naturally. One of his sons also cameoed as young Thor in the opening montage (the 8-year-old boy.)
And, just as Ragnarök, his brother played theater Thor.
And the wolfwoman is his actuall wife.
And I'm his cousin
When you see the transformation of Thor running in the woods the little boy is his actual son too
I never noticed the rock god is sitting on an iron throne of scissors 😂💀
I think it was nice of Marvel to cast Chris Hemsworths entire family in this movie. His daughter, wife, and son are all in it. That’s pretty cool. A crazy family memory.
Both sons, and not just his family. Natalie Portman's, Christian Bale's, and Taika Waititi's children were all in it as well.
Maybe more smart than nice. Probable a huge money saving decision 🙈😛
And isn't his brother playing him in the stage play at the beginning?
@@phunkydroid Yes, Luke Hemsworth as "Actor Thor", Matt Damon as "Actor Loki", Sam Neill (Dr. Grant in "Jurassic Park") as "Actor Odin", Melissa McCarthy as "Actor Hela", and Ben Falcone (her husband) as "Asgardian Stage Manager"
All except for Liam, right?
My aunt passed away 7 years ago from breast cancer…
Two years ago, my wife was diagnosed with breast cancer. Now she is fighting stage 4 metastatic cancer. It’s in her brain.
Sometimes winning the fight means never giving up and always trying to smile.
You and your content have help me cope with this situation. Thank you, Alex!
Damn that's bleak - hope all the best for you guys, honestly (went thourgh this shit twice with my parents). Somewhere along the way the internet made me so cynic I actually expected you to end your post with "And this reaction gave me cancer"
ironic that you commented this on THIS movie about jane with cancer
It’s a shame they chose to make jokes in the worst times
Sending love and prayers your way 🙏🏾❤️🤍
@@SkinnyMood27 Alex asked if anyone has somebody close to them going through cancer, that's why
Fought cancer for 3 years and was just recently cleared with a clean bill of health (for now). Jane’s story in this really hit hard.
I hope you're still doing alright
@@frankwolftown he died because a piano fell on his head, truly sad.
39:33 I love the fact that this moment COMPLETELY flew over Alex's head. A guy made of rocks called Dwayne.... aka... THE ROCK.... 🤣
EXACTLY! Korg was telling the story.
Stormbreaker doesn't have the "worthy spell" on it, only Mjölnir does.
and that's literally true. the actor voicing korg is the director.
Both of Taika’s Thor movies are told by a character in it. Ragnarok was Thor himself, as if telling it to his bony cell mate. Love and Thunder is very literally narrated by Korg. In both cases, that affects the way the movie is presented, which is why this one leans even harder on the comedy than even Ragnarok.
@@0g0dn0 what adds to the second film is that the director of both films also plays Korg. It’s like he positioned himself in the role to naturally transition to that.
There's a lot of family members in this movie, too. Gorr's daughter (Thor's adopted niece) is Chris Hemsworth's actual daughter. His wife was the woman he kisses on the back of the giant wolf. His brother played Thor in the theatrical recreation with Matt Damon as Loki. Young Thor running through the woods at the very start was his actual son. And in the battle with all the kids getting powers, Chris Hemsworth's third kid as well as Natalie Portman's two kids are part of the group.
Not a family member but don't forget Sam Neill as Odin
How is Matt damon related
lol, he's not. but the actor that played Thor in the play is Chris' real brother.@@Garbowhat
You are the ONLY reactor to catch that the reason it was so weird was because Korg was the one telling the story. Most people completely miss that
Doesn't change how bad the movie is.
Still trash
@@jerem442 If you're capable of adjusting your mind and seeing it from the point of view of a Stone Giant telling the children of Asgard a story, then a lot of what is 'wrong' with the movie also becomes a bit more palatable. It makes Gorr a lot more horrifying because this is the sanitised version Korg thought wouldn't frighten kids.
@@jerem442 It does.
I never made that connection. Guess it makes sense. Still not a fan though.
My mom's about a year into remission from Stage 4 Melanoma (skin cancer that spread to her lungs, liver, spine, and brain) so Jane's story hit hard. I really like the theory that she went to Valhalla- a place you only get to go to if you die in battle- because she died in her battle against cancer. Really shows respect for the absolute war cancer wages against the body of those who have it.
Yes. Waititi did a great thing with that decision to send her to Valhalla. So small, but MIGHTY statement against a terrible foe.
As a Swede who grew up knowing the stories of Norse mythology, I have been WAITING for the goats for all the past Thor movies! And they didn't disappoint. 🤩 They're as cannon as Mjölner. 😉
Yep yep yep.
The Goats never fail to make me laugh
Oh well, maybe I’m too biter, but I hate it 😢
I just wish they had made them Thor's original goats, like he recognizes them and it's a reunion, or at least him saying, I used to have giant Goats, I will name you after them or something like that. at least mention that he had them before.
Indeed, Tanngrisnir and Tanngnjóstr (aka teeth-barer and teeth-grinder) are the goats who pull the chariot of the god Thor.
You're 100% correct about the events of this movie being told from Korg's point of view, and once you watch it with that in mind, the tone of the movie begins to make sense.
As for being worthy, that was an enchantment placed on Mjolnir by Odin. Stormbreaker doesn't have that enchantment, so it can be used by anyone.
That's asinine.
@@theonlykoh4631 what part is asinine
@@theonlykoh4631 why would you say that?
Wait if that’s true….. then everything does make more sense… I’ll have to do some research
@@terogates1 I mean there's a reason The movie begins and ends with Korg seemingly telling the story to kids.
I seriously laugh every single time the goats screamed. Just never gets old to me 😂
are you joking? no your definetely not serious that was way to overplayed and annoying after even one time
Nah! STIll makes me laugh. Every. Single. Time.@@teammillion2
@@teammillion2you seem lame asf
@@cererra682 you must be a child
@@teammillion2 it was hilarious
The fact that Mjolnir can now split into numerous pieces is so damn cool
My mom died from breast cancer. I put off watching this movie until I could cry at home in peace, I don't read the comics but I know plenty of people who do who warned me that this would be a rough one for me. Part of this movie that I love that a lot of people hate is when the kids get the powers of Thor and fight. My mom worked with kids and I knew she would have loved to see kids standing up for themselves and helping save the day.
Same... Like cancer sucks so hard.. :( this movie had me crying multiple times. Laughing too but crying hard
i went theather with an old friend from college that i havent seen in months. we never lost touch and decided to hangout and see this movie together. my friend is a body builder and in this year before this movie he lost his mother and broke up with his gf. after the movie break i wanted to cheer him up and asked:
''from 1 to 10 how much you relate thor right now?''
we both laughed like maniacs. in a way we can say this comedy movie achieved its goal
Fake
@@LoopLife42 yo you can gtfo.I don’t care what you personally thought of the movie but talking down to someone’s tragedy like that is despicable. Do you really have nothing better to do in your sad life?
Good call on the monsters being straight out of a kid's nightmare. The kids in the movie were asked to draw a bunch of monsters, and Taika had them put into the movie.
I read the Gorr arc in the comics after this movie dropped its trailer cuz I had never heard of the villain and people seemed to like his storyline. That was probably a mistake because the whole time I was watching this movie I just saw all the painfully obvious missed opportunities to make this movie so much cooler than it was 😢
Those opportunities may not have made sense with the story they wanted to tell or may not have been possible to do. This movie was still pretty damn cool.
Christian Bale was a good Batman, but when you watch this film, you low-key realize he'd be a great Joker as well.
I'd be down for an Austin Powers-like movie with Christian Bale playing both Batman and Joker.
Honestly this is one movie that I'm glad I didn't see in the cinema as it had only been a few months since I lost my dad to lung cancer and just hearing the words "stage 4" literally made me break down in tears, hell I still can't fully keep it together over a year later.
You're not alone. One day at a time.
trust time, it cures
They didn't really explain it very well in the movie. But, I think in the comics, every time Jane transformed into Thor using the power of Mjolnir, the amount of energy coursing through her body burned up the chemotherapy treatment inside of her. So, while she was transformed into Thor, she had the power of a god and was temporarily cured. But, every time she transformed back into Jane, her cancer came back worse because the chemotherapy was gone. That's why she ended up succumbing to her illness and dying in the end.
So if she would of stayed in Thor mode, she would of lived...why didn't she do that then? To create a dramatic scene ... wow great writing Disney marvel !
good riddance
I will always love the little Thor plays that take place in Asguard. Matt Damon as Loki and the other Hemsworth bro Luke playing Thor. Melissa McCarthy was a funny Helena. You gotta give Chris props over all these years hes maintained one of the best physiques a God could have and at his age that is not just a couple grass shots and a jog its hard work.
💪
My dad got shot in the chest, died 3 times on the ambulance ride to the hospital. Made a full recovery only to find out he had stage 3 testicular cancer to which he beat as well and is extremely thankful of the life he has with everyone since he's went through so much.
A decade ago I never imagined they would implement the screaming goat meme into a comic book film, but here we are. They don't mention their names out loud, but they're called Toothgnasher and Toothgrinder.
The New Asgard tour guide is Darryl Jacobson from the Team Thor one-shots parts 1 and 2. He even has his own Team Darryl short.
Gorr's daughter Love was portrayed by Chris Hemsworth's real-life daughter India Rose. In fact, Christian Bale, Natalie Portman, and Taika Waititi had their kids join as some of New Asgard's children.
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. At least we don’t have to wait long to find out. Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3 premieres this weekend and it will likely arrive on Disney Plus before the end of August.
(And folks, Alex has already seen the Guardians Holiday Special. That’s Patreon exclusive.)
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. 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.
I never noticed Darryl as the Tour Guide!
Like always, I loved the reaction video.
Your impression of the goats was the best, man 😆
That was actually a good point. The movie is from Korg's perspective, so all the "weirdness" and exaggerations now suddenly made sense! *mind blown*
The goats are both a reference to actual Norse mythology and to the comics. In North mythology Thor has two pet goats that are immortal and can fly, he often kills them for meat on his long journeys, then brings them back to life with magic.
They're also a reference to that old meme/video with the goats screaming
Your reaction to the movie was 100x better than watching the actual movie.
Right! 💯
Factual
- I feel that; I had great disappointment in both this movie as well as Multiverse
The movie isn't that bad
Who ever edited the screaming scene you actually killed me for 10 minutes straight
My mum had a stage 4 brain tumour. Its not just how sick someone gets, its the changes to the person you love personality wise that was the big one. She never was aggressive or anything but seeing an intelligent person lose the ability to think straight or struggle to put together sentences that was heart breaking
To answer your question at 13:08, Marvel is really good at sticking to source material while making small changes to not make it exactly like the comics. The scene where Thor is looking at Falligar the Behemoth with Korg on top of a rock is ripped directly from the comic panel. Super cool in my opinion. Also Gorr's appearance in this movie is not what it is in the comics. In the comics he looks much more terrifying.
Yeah, in the Comic he has two tentacles coming out of his head. Kind of like a Twi'Lek from Star Wars.
@@vordt4139 I'm so sad they didn't include this in the movie. It really wouldn't have been hard because we can see that practical works like with the live action Ahsoka. Then just use slight CGI for certain movements if needed.
His appearance was most likely changed to avoid scaring the crap out of the kids watching the movie.
When Alex skips over the scene where Jane discovers what the axe is for. Then Alex says "why does he want the axe"........
Bro 😂😂😂😂😂
30:30 I actually didn't notice my first viewing that Gorr actually has shadows helping here too, making it even easier for him to hold onto the axe while knocking Thor's hands away (like Tweety Bird running out of piggies)
Thx for making videos makes me feel less alone
Uh oh… people are gonna be mad at the title….
Run Alex before *they* Get you
Yeah this movie was trash lol
@@eric43085 that’s a friendly description…..
@@eric43085 a few things to like though
@@BlankSpace83 Bale was great. Hate how they portray Thor as an idiot All the time. But woke marvel has to make all men dumb now
Bale had potential that he wasn’t able to exploit. I won’t specify who, but what helped some reactors enjoy it more was going with low expectations.
Also the Necro sword was originally Knull's (The god of symbiot who created venom)and Gorr got the sword from him in comics.
Knull
@@anonimowytv5268 I sometimes got confused between null and knull
18:06 The goats or from Norse Mythology. Their names are Tanngrisnir and Tanngnjóstr or Tooth Grinder and Tooth Nasher and they pulled Thor's chariots and I just love that they incorporated them in this movie.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tanngrisnir_and_Tanngnj%C3%B3str#/media/File:Thor_by_Johannes_Gehrts.jpg
lol The scene where Russell Crowe walks out and comes down the steps had me dying of laughter.
My little brother passed away 10 years ago. I miss him every day but what makes me really sad is that he never got to meet my daughter.
He would have been a wonderful uncle to her.
I subscribed yesterday after binging your MCU journey during the weekend.
I love this silly movie! Jane looks awesome and yes, we have to remember that Korg is the narrator and puts his own interpretations in the story.
Love from Sweden!
I love that Love and Thunder is his daughter in real life as well. They’re so perfect together on film and so fun. It was such a fun great movie
The end credit scene is beautiful. Valhala is where people go when they die in battle. Jane died in her battle against cancer.
I lost my mom to cancer. This movie was extremely cathartic, even healing in a way.
alex: i havent seen a shirtless scene yet
me: okay, we are gonna wait for it 🙂
Same…I’m like well you’re gonna see it all 😂
My man with the Brink quote. Soul-Skaters for life, my dude! Team Pup and Suds all the way! 😂
It's also funny you mentioned this was just like "Out of a kid's nightmare", because the shadow monsters in this movie were actually designed by kids as what they would find scary.
“Soul skaters” 😭 Brink is one of my favorite movies!! I love when he’s telling his dad about getting dissed and having beef with the other skaters & when he asks if his dad was listening, he says “sure I am! You got dissed, ate beef.” 🤣 I still re-watch it sometimes 🤘🏼
Alex saying 'let's hope Jane doesn't start getting piped down by Heimdall' made me laugh so hard I cried... and I'm a grown ass man. Well done.
What most people who hated this movie did not understand, was that it was a story told to children by Korg. It is how he made this tragic tale funny and not too scary for them and this is why the humour is sometimes a little bit displaced.
I lost one of my close friends to cancer in December 2021, she fought for 18 months, she never gave up but cancer was too strong for her. I have known her since 1997 and worked with her since 2001. I miss her.
Up until hearing Alex mention he thought it was goofy and weird because Korg was telling the story it never crossed my mind. It could still be a reach but I like to believe that's the most logical reason. Regardless, I still loved the movie. Also I'm sorry to hear of your loss.
Don't speak for those that KNOW it was told from the point of view of Korg, and still think this movie is utter trash
well i want the thor cut too... is that too much to ask? taika is weird... maybe he has one
@@stevearno9726 woah, I did not say that the movie was good. I just said that most people did missunderstand it. I still think Taika, as good as he is as director, was the wrong choice for this movie. The theme of Jane dying of cancer and trying to make an impact, did call for more than just being a sidenote.
Tbh, after the second time they showed up I was ready to mak Kebab out of the goats, they got on my nerves so much that I was thinking about leaving the theater.
Same for Thor Ragnarok, it was like a story told by Thor himself (in a pub, drunk).
"this looks straight out of a kids nightmare" It's actually, exactly that. Taika actually got the children in the movie to draw the most terrifying monsters they can think of and he got his team to add them to the movie for the final cut. Kinda cool to be honest.
hey alex! getting to this kind of late, been binging your playlists nonstop since I found you. Something you might find interesting about the screaming goats is that in the thor comics there actually were screaming goats and in norse mythology Thor actually had two goats that he could kill and feed to the gods, then bring them back to life with the power of his hammer the next day. Super cool!
GOATS EXPLAINED ^ XD
Your reaction videos are my favorite cant stop watching since i found the channel last week peace & love keep up the awesome content 🤘
In Marvel Comics and in the actual Norse Mythology, yes, Thor does sometimes use 2 goats to transport him throughout the galaxy. Their names are Toothgrinder and Toothgnasher. 🐐🐐 💫
Stormbreaker doesn't have the same spell as Mjölnir. You don't have to be worthy to wield it. It's just really really heavy.
So the god butchers original plan was to wish ALL the gods away because they didn't save his daughter, Thor and Jane were smart in basically making him realize he was being a hypocrite, he now had the power to save her and didn't, only because he couldn't be the one to raise her.... but at least she would be alive. Also he needed Stormbreaker just for the fact it can summon the bifrost, earlier in the movie they found out that was the key to getting to Eternity. I do love that Jane got to go to Valhalla because she died a norse God, and died in battle.
I love your idea though that the movie is weird is because its being told by Korg... which in a way it is, Korg is voiced by the movies Director Taika Waititi =)
My mom has fought cancer 3 times! 1971, 2009, 2018. Still kicking up dust in 2024 at 84 years old. I feel beyond blessed.
i think the beginning up to thor and the guardians departure was a perfect way to start love and thunder but it just went down hill from there. if they got rid of the kids from the story and showed gorr actually killing other gods putting more weight and seriousness to that part it would have been perfect. And if Gorr attacked the omnipotence city that would have been the cherry on top
Wasn’t there a lot of scenes cut out of this movie? I think Taika said there’s like an extra hour or so of material that they cut of whole different worlds and stuff. I bet they had Gorr butchering Gods in those scenes, too. I personally liked the kids, I thought the end was cute and wholesome with them, but the movie did feel like a bit too much was cut out of it for me
I am happy you liked it (based on title). Because surely it went too much with comedy and Gorr could be portrayed a bit better... But I loved this movie. The finale battle and him together with Love... I honestly had shed some tears.
I disagree Gorr was sick, it was everything else that wasnt great
@@camopb1548 they should’ve showed gorr actually butchering gods.
@@camopb1548 he looked sick. But he could kill more Gods and less kidnap.
Same 😢😢😢😊
@@idefinitelytapped7396 They actually filmed about 30min of Gorr doing just that. Yet they cut them for time reasons? like wtf I would have gladly watched another 30-45min if it meant we get more Gorr backstory.
My grandpa died of lung cancer 5 years ago when I was 7 and I was devastated he was basically my best friend me and him would watch everything together marvel,DC, SpongeBob,toy story,Star wars we would play mario kart that is who I lost to cancer but I will remember the memories of me and him.
One little throw in joke you missed at the end. When Korg introduces his significant other, “Dwayne” who happens to be made of…😂😂😂
Just remember all infinity stones give off small or large amounts of gamma radiation which Hulk stated so Jane had the reality stone in her whole body makes it sound like her whole body was shutting down
This is a solid 3/10. 👏
The screaming goats bit is going to age as well as the "what are those!" thing Shuri said to T`Challa in Black Panther, and for the same reason.
Shit was pissing me off the whole movie too. A DECADE MEME.
@@DillyDilly13 Dude the actual GOD Thor and comic Thor has Goats, it's in reference to Norse Mythology more than a meme
No it's not. The Goats come from actual
Norse Mythology not a meme
The 'what are those' thing was pretty much out of date when she said it. That was the joke.
My dad died of a really rare cancer, from diagnosis to his passing was four months. The last month, I watched him waste away and was unable to speak or know who any of his family were. It's the hardest thing I've ever been through. I just pray my mom (who is alive and healthy) doesn't get cancer... Idk if I can go through it again, alone.
I liked this movie a lot, I'm excited to watch your reaction!
I was personally let down by "Love & Thunder", but I still had fun with it. It's just that given the talent behind the camera and in front of it, and the success of "Ragnarok", I expected this one to be just as good. But I think the comedy simply didn't land 100% the way they intended. That being said, I'm happy you had fun with it! Despite it being considered one of the worst movies in the MCU (arguably of Phase 4), I do see a lot of people really respond to the absurdity of it. I guess I'm just one of those cats that just wanna see people having a good time lol.
Cancer blows; I have lost family and friends to it. My father n law last year had throat cancer and luckily pulled through. I am sorry for anyone that has or is going through it right now. You are in my thoughts.
Loved the "brink" reference 😂 good stuff
Marvel mondays are amazing! Always brighten up my days. Hope to see them continue with X Men? 👀
My Mun going through Chemo and Radiation now and my Poppa just been diagnosed with a tumor in his thyroid so its a big hit but they smile and laugh and make everyday they have awesome so cant ask for more. LOVE your channel BTW bro you really put out amazing content and always put a smile on my face with ya quips. Please never stop
OK, I have to drop some trivia here.
The dead god that gave Gorr the sword in this movie was Knull the god of the Symbiotes (the creature that Venom is) in the comics. The sword itself is a symbiote that turns into a Symbiote dragon. Gorr then tries to end the world with such a crazy plan that three different Thors from different timelines work together to kill Gorr.
Read the King in Black comic books to see a world-ending crossover event.
After Jane's death in the comics, she became the new Valkyrie (and actually shows up in King in Black).
FINALLY! Someone gets it! One of the big themes in the comic book stories is that every story also comes from a particular point of view. We accept different writers and artists, but the universe as a whole is predicated upon some in-universe storyteller. A big powerhouse comic was "Marvels" which was all about these Earth shattering events from the point of view of a guy on the streets. This way, even the exact same event can be told very differently and you can mix the goofiest stories with the most serious ones.
My advice to anyone realizing this is simply to enjoy the stories you like, and feel free to dislike others. The studios will still make more content and you will get more of what you like.
Alex is so lost while watching every movie 💀💀💀💀
I also love that when Thor grants them his power, the lightning traces the image of Yggdrasil
That Alex on Sunday moment, dude I was drinking water, I nearly chocked while laughing and now my stomach hurts 😂
This movie is completely weird, cheesy, yet something about it makes me motionally cry every time. I don't know what it is, but while many say it sucks, I love it. Hugs from Brazil!
I didn’t like it at first & still have gripes with it, but it has its charm, Christian Bale is great, & I think the Jane/Thor dynamic is best here. I wish they expanded & gave more time to Jane’s story, there’s a fair amount of emotion but I feel like it should’ve been pushed further
Same here 😊
All the vets of this channel knew what Alex's response would be when the screaming goats showed up!
18:37 Brink! One of the best Disney channel movies from my childhood. Nice call back bro
Dad died in 2020 from starvation via colon cancer as a tumor blocked his passageway so he couldn't eat anymore. 2nd go around they said couldn't do surgery. They rumoved one the first time. Only made it a year since initial diagnosis/emergency surgery blockage/rupture of colon while we were out deer hunting.
YES, ALEX, THANK YOU. it seems like the majority of viewers missed the fact that this entire story/movie is being told by korg, who is very much an unreliable narrator. taika waititi isn't just some whacky dude who directs stuff, he actually has a vision that most of the time goes under the radar (jojo rabbit is also told in a similar way, a little boy's perspective of WW2.)
korg's style of storytelling doesn't differ from luis's storytelling (ant-man's best-friend), which is why a lot of that shit may be exaggerated or even made-up lol because korg wasn't there for a lot of the things that went down, plus he's telling this story to children, this is the asgardian legend about the mighty thor.
accuracy-wise, taika took bits and pieces from the comics such as jane's cancer and becoming mighty thor (+ her death), omnipotence city, hercules (though he joins the avengers and guardians in the comics), and the screaming goats (that are actually quite powerful in norse mythology). bonus fact: love is actually played by chris hemsworth's daughter, child thor in the beginning was one of chris's sons, and natalie portman's, taika waititi's, as well as christian bale's children are also among the asgardian youth, making it one big family experience :)
I wish I had a creepy uncle like Alex when I was a kid.
Aside from you doing good movie reviews, i cant help but to constantly notice your perfect teeth! So nice😊
"Sould Skaters" - I believe is a reference to Brink! One of the best Disney Channel movies created!
a lot of people didnt like this movie because it was too silly, but honestly thats what i liked about it.
You can't have Silliness in everywhere, i understand you make spider man silly or Ms. Marvel or ant-man or whatever but this is The Gods, and their killer we talking about, come on man, you really like how Russel crew walks down on stairs as Zeus???
Personally I really love this movie c:, I get why so many people don’t like it but for me, it’s just wholesome and fun and stupid and so freaking heartbreaking all at the same time and that is perfect for me
Same. I enjoy my time watching it. Kinda taken aback when a lot people don't like it but after critical look at it this movie. The movie does have a lot of flaw. At the end of the day tho, what matters is whether we enjoy it or not. Nothing else really matters
Yes. I love the escapism movies like this one. It’s a COMIC BOOK. Taika Waititi GETS that, and runs with it. I love that he went this direction, and the casting is SO good.
Crazy thing. Praying to a higher power for a loved one to get better. And losing them. Really hits your faith.
This movie is close to my heart because my dad was also told that his chemo wasn’t working- I watched this with him on my birthday too
Gorr / Scarlet Witch / Green Golbin were THE best villains during phase 4.. And fun fact the little girl “Gorr’s daughter”is actually Chris Hemsworth’s daughter Irl. And Korg is played by Taika Waititi the movie’s director
Gorr? The god butcher who butchred nothing, we were just told he did and we just had to believe it, total waste of a character
@@headcaptainyamamoto7015 didn't you see the dead gods hanging on hooks when the Guardians received the reports which is directly from the comics? Or the giant beast god thor found. Even the first one in the opening.
@@jhedjoardumago7691 Yeah but honestly , he should have been shown killing more , even without being as graphic as the books . You're told about this big menace destroying god , and you only get his first kill . otherwise Gorr's other scenes were great , and the Black and white was gorgeous
@@headcaptainyamamoto7015 his potential was wasted but during this phase he was a top tier villain
I feel like most of the people that don't like this movie completely forgot that it is a children's story told by Korg of all people. Of course it is going to be embellished and ridiculous with him telling it!
I dunno, to me a bad movie is a bad movie regardless of how you frame it.
The Room wouldn't automatically become a good movie if it was revealed at the end to be told by a preschooler who had no idea how to tell a story with a coherent narrative, would it?
That's a weak argument , it could have been a better children story . That's basically Disney's whole existence there
@@A_VeryIdea lol this movie is a million times better than the room. Why compare them
@@marcushankins8171 It's literaly the "The Room" of the MCU
@@marcushankins8171 to be honest i would rather watch the room
"... it's your favorite creepy uncle." You took the words right out of my mouth. Great stuff, keep it up.
I know several people, family and friends. Had a family member just recently died and the funeral is Thursday. Its very sad to have to go through
Please don't leave Ms Marvel behind. You NEED to watch it before The Marvels.
And it’s a fun show 😃
It. Is. Terrible! :)
Please do more like. That show is ass
+1 Support for watching Ms Marvel, and the same goes for She Hulk. Both shows have their haters, which I can only interpret as being people who think the only good Marvel content is if it follows their favoured formula. Plus there's those who just hate anything Captain Marvel related because they hate Brie Larsen for speaking some truth. Also, if you don't include them you're going to be all caught up on Marvel movies in a few weeks, so you may as well see them and decide for yourself. 😀
@@StumpyTales Nuff said.
You need to watch Ms.Marvel. It just belongs your MCU journey
“Soul Skaters” is from the movie “Brink”. Loved that movie when I was a wee lad!❤
Also for the demons that were attaching the children, the director asked the kids what they thought was scary, and to draw a picture of it. Then he had those characters in their pictures brought to life as the things they (the kids) are actually scared of, and are fighting against.
Watching this will probably be more enjoyable than the movie itself
Facts
I was just thinking the same😂 Alex’s videos are so funny.
Literally movie sucks 😢
RUclipsrs love every movie they watch just for the clicks......and money. Sad.
@@JoeGaming93 I agree… This movie would have been so much better with less humor. The themes would have worked better with more serious tone. For example Jane’s cancer and Gorr.
Thor got his physical healt back with training but he should have strugled with his mental health in this one. In the end, he would have found his true purpose and love in Love (Gorr’s child)
I had never thought about the fact that the movie was told through Korg's eyes and to kids! I already loved the movie, but this made me love it even more! Thank you, Alex!
And to wield Stormbreaker one doesn't need to be worthy, but to wield Mjölnir does because of Odin. Kinda like Thor did to Mjölnir to protect Jane.
Love your videos!! Keep it up!
my wife is going through cancer treatments. She made it through skin cancer and 2 years later was diagnosed with leukemia. It's been tough, but you stop thinking about the bad and just enjoy the time you spend together, make the best of the situation.
LOL when u said we hadn't even see him with his shirt off, I was thinking, well you're gonna see that and more 😁
The kids' battle scene was the best part of the whole movie
