Ant-man won't give Thor his giant ice cream

[demilypyro]

Ant-man had all the time in the world in Endgame to give Thor his giant ice cream and he didn't.....

Thor, watching the Dora train: this is very interesting

T’Challa, watching Thor watch the training of the Dora, unsure how to proceed: really? Because Wakanda has a rich history of elite special forces made exclusively of women, and we take great pride in them

Thor: wonderful! But I was referring to their fighting style. It is very different from that of the Valkyries of Asgard, and I wish to learn it, if possible

T’Challa:

Thor: when I was little I wanted to be a Valkyrie

T’Challa, breathing a sigh of relief: I was inconsolable for a week when my mother told me that I wasn’t allowed to join the Dora

T’Challa: I refused to leave my room

Thor: I refused to eat

(Shuri, filming this from behind a pillar: oh god there’s two of them)

Some asshat: YOu JusT doNT liKe EnDgAMe ThOR bEcauSe hE DoeSNT haVe ABs

Me: Actually, i didn’t like Endgame Thor because he was a character suffering from PTSD and addiction and Marvel treated him (and these conditions) like a joke. Fat jokes, alcoholic jokes, jokes about panic attacks, one of which was made when Thor broke down at the prospect of having to relive the day where his mother was KILLED. Thor was reduced from ‘The Strongest Avenger’ who lost his family and his honor to a fat burnout who was mocked for crying when being forced to time travel back to one of the most traumatic days of his life. Thor was not given a satisfying character arc, and his suffering was turned into comic relief.

this movie could have been elevated so much if they’d just sent Thor to the past to retrieve something instead of Clint

Alright ladies we need another lesbian icon aside Thor so i present:

T'challa, king of the lesbians

[thotvengers]

Alright when thors called a lesbo icon its okay but when its tchalla, the second man we are claiming its suddenly “enough” what?? Hmm i smell racism

[thotvengers]

Yall white lesbians are mad about this post please spread this around more

[amazonian-america-chavez]

Aneka and Ayo are former Dora Milaje that are a couple in the comics. So this is basically canon.

[garnetgh0st]

Thor: dumb sports lesbians who love beer and brawling. Bad at fashion and talking to girls

T'challa: refined combat lesbians who love trees and dancing under the moonlight. Excellent at talking to girls and being fashionable without trying.

The dichotomy we need

[motherfuckingnazgul]

#excuse u thor is great at talking to girls and t'challa literally can’t talk to his crush

exactly, thor attracts hopeless lesbians who desperately want advice from this Smooth Motherfucker and t’challa attracts smooth lesbians who like, see this trash pile and are like “he’s the worst we need to help him”

Look how fuckin DELIGHTED evans is holy shit

[copperbadge]

Chris Evans is like a three year old who thinks Chris Hemsworth, age five, is a deity. In every image where they’re together he’s almost invariably adoring. There’s one where Hemsworth has him in a headlock and Evans is just like “this is my life now and that’s ok.”

Watching Thor 1 again after watching Ragnarok is so fkin funny because this lil shit is probably hiding a knife up his sleeve in this very scene

Look at that face. He’s gonna stab his brother. I just Know it.

The funniest thing is I imagine Diana and Thor would get along very well, and bond over their dads being the head honchos of the gods. Also lightning and thunder! Diana would probably be like a slightly exasperated big sister to Thor at times. Oh and she can 100% lift Mjolnir and wield Stormbreaker.

[higglety]

and we all know how Thor feels about female warriors. he would think Diana is the absolute coolest

[wizardlyghost]

the little brother diana would want

the big sister thor deserves

[halpdevon]

everyone’s got their own rendition of how the supposed bro hug goes down and so it was only a matter of time before i slapped mine into the pot

[wizardlyghost]

five seconds after this shot loki stabs thor with the knife up his sleeve and thor just chortles good naturedly like yes brother i love you too

[andromeda3116]

so i saw some people discussing how loki in ragnarok shouldn’t have been at all phased or subverted by dr. strange – which i agree with, but also, hey, it’s comedic and you can argue that he was taken off-guard, but upon re-watch, something stuck out to me –

there’s this moment when they appear at the bottom of the stairs and thor rolls down the last couple and stands up and he says

we could’ve just walked.

and it made me think of how magic works in terry pratchett’s novels, how (to paraphrase) the hard part wasn’t turning someone into a frog, it was not turning someone into a frog when you knew how easy it was.

like, the whole scene with dr. strange is just. all magic. all pointless magic. unnecessary magic, when, well. they could have just walked.

whereas loki doesn’t really rely on magic overmuch in the movie – he uses it as a tool, when he needs it, but if the job can be done with plain old non-magical trickery or a knife, he just uses those. he resorts to magic when he’s cornered by valkyrie, he uses it when his goals are most directly accomplished by using magic rather than by other means.

whereas dr. strange is using magic all over his scene, just to use it. just because he can. magic was unnecessary for ninety percent of what he did in that scene, the only time he needed magic was to whisk them away to norway. but he teleported all over the place even when he only needed to move a few feet, gave thor an ever-refilling beer that just spilled everywhere, floated around to make a show of how ~magical~ he was, when…

he could have just walked.

i mean, i’m very sure that the filmmakers intended it for comedic effect, but there’s also a layer there of dr. strange being much less comfortable with magic than loki is – loki doesn’t need to bust out the magic at every opportunity, it’s simply a skill, a tool that is completely under his control and at his disposal. whereas dr. strange (at least in his scene in ragnarok) is showing off, which reeks of insecurity.

i guess i’m thinking… if you take the magic away, loki is still a deadly, formidable opponent with many tricks up his sleeve, but dr. strange is just a guy in a cape.

[wizardlyghost]

i think its because loki is a character who grew up with magic, hes spent centuries learning it and using it and the novelty has just sort of worn off for him, whereas when ragnarok happens doctor strange has had magic for less than a decade, hes spent his whole life being relatively normal and then lost everything and suddenly hes counted among the most powerful people on the planet, hes gonna use that magic because its fun, its still got the novelty factor, its the new toy, while for loki its a decidedly old toy that only gets taken off the shelf when needed

[lousysharkbutt]

thor’s concept of sibling rivalry may be a bit extreme

she’s about to risk it all

[thetalee]

Wait no stop, this brings up a good question: HOW does Thor fit in within the christian worldview!?!?

[metal-gear-samus]

Oh I think sister Marjorie can fit him in just fine

[allaroundnerd]

[anony-mouse-writer]

The lesson to be learned from Thor Ragnarok and Black Panther: spend more time on sibling relationships and less time on grimdark or bullshit romance plots. It works out much better.

A few things I learnt from the ‘Thor: Ragnarok’ commentary:

1. the commodore ship is the colours of the Australian aboriginal’s traditional flag.

2. The left head of the three headed champion fighter has Taika Waititi’s face.

3. In the scene where Thor is being nursed in Hulk’s room, 1 woman is Hemsowrth’s wife and another is Waititi’s wife.

4. The shot where they pan from Loki and Valkyrie to the reflection in the floor was nicknamed “The greatest shot in the history of cinema” by the crew.

5. Chris Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston are not in fact brothers. Crazy.

6. The line “He’s a friend from work!” was actually thought of by a young boy who visited the set as part of ‘make a wish’. He told Chris to say it as he thought it was funny, and now it’s the most famous line from the film!

7. Jeff Goldblum would sometimes just ad-lib for 4-5 minutes at a time, and it would be incredible.
