  • Thor has long been one of the most unrelatable characters in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but one marvelous scene from Avengers: Infinity War featuring Rocket Racoon of the Guardians of the Galaxy changes everything.

    Growing up, Thor was always my favorite comic book. Somehow, the MCU has created such a perfect character of Captain America, that Thor became 2nd on my list. I still love Thor; I still think he's awesome as hell, but Cap...the way the MCU "created" him (not the comic book Cap, but the one in the movies) He became someone I could look up to. Someone I could hope to see others become more like.....which I doubt will ever happen.
    As Rocket said: he's pretty good at that.

    Probably the best of the collaboration, the focus on the scene with narrative interjections really helped keep the focus in a way the other videos couldn't. I really appreciated that you didn't try to overshadow the quiet scene, but instead added to it. Well done.

      I agree. And I think that, overall, Endgame reinforced the underlying thesis of this video-one scene in particular. I've already got a script for a sequel video written that I'll make when Endgame releases on Blu-Ray later this year.

    This is why Fat Thor to me makes perfect sense. For some people finally snapping means an escalation of violence. For Thor it means wallowing in self pity.
    The thing that bothered me was the complete lack of empathy for him in Endgame. No one person tries to understand his pain except that Rock Monster.

    • @ThoughtWord
      @ThoughtWord  3 года назад +2

      That's a fair point about Endgame, though I think there's something to be said about all the characters in that film hurting so bad that they are, to some degree or another, blind or numb to each other's pain.

    I came out of Ragnarok dissatisfied by the relentlessly comedic approach of the movie, where the closest Thor got to being able to express his loss was as the setup for a dick joke borrowed from Dr Horrible (the hammer wasn't his fist...).
    I came out of Infinity War with a whole bunch of positives, including "and they even had the scene that was missing from Ragnarok".
    Somehow, in the middle of an ensemble movie with a cast of dozens, the Russo Brothers managed to find room for something that Taika Waititi couldn't find room for in the character's solo movie, despite it being obviously missing from it.

    Thor and Hulk were greatly diminished throughout these last two films which helped the story and created more tension with Thanos. It allowed CA and IM to have more of a major role in the battles. Imagine if Hulk and 100% Thor showed up in iWar? Endgame would have been moot...
