Thor (2011) - Caravan Of Garbage

Ойын-сауық

The concept of Thor always worked wonders within the pages of a Marvel comic or in Norse Mythology or in a 1988 Incredible Hulk telemovie but translating it to the big screen would prove to be a massive gamble. Directed by Kenneth Brannagh and released in 2011, Thor Just Thor managed to rope in a terrific cast including Chris Hemsworth in the title role, Tom Hiddleston as Loki, Natalie Portman as Jane Foster, Anthony Hopkins as Odin, Rene Russo as Frigga and more. Combining magic, technology and myth it became a key part of the MCU paving the way for over a decade of appearances from the character. But the eyebrows were bad.

    Fun fact: The term for starting the story in the middle and then rewinding the story to show you how they got to that point is called “in media res” which means “in the midst of things”, but it was actually originally called Blue Harvest

    I always interpreted the closing seconds of the Thor: First Thor as Jane somehow finding a way to reach Asgard from Earth using technology. Cause it ends with Heimdall saying she's looking for Thor and goes into this flowing shot that starts with her in her lab and transitions into this credit sequence flying through space that ends at Asgard. I assumed next time we saw Thor he'd be transporting himself using a gadget Jane developed. But then in Avengers they handwave the rainbow bridge being destroyed away by going "Oden used dark magic or whatever...".

    Overall, the people who hate on Marvel movies because they’re “roller coaster movies” don’t give these movies their due credit. The MCU was able to successfully transition the whacky/weird source material onto the big screen as something that genuinely works “in real life”. Sure it’s goofy stuff compared to other “real life” but they were able to nail some things that you could say “I could see this happening in real life” all while keeping true to the source material and making it seem somewhat grounded. Let’s not forget the great job they did with character development. Thor has grown over the years, and Thanos was such an imposing and impactful character despite being entirely CG.

    I do love Thor 1. I think it captured the character and his origins near perfectly and I'm always so disappointed when I see people regularly compare it to the stodgy, boring mess that was The Dark World and when people lump it with the latter in favour of Ragnarok being the complete 'reinvention' of the character that 'saved him'. Where Thor was dull, lifeless, near humourless and weak in The Dark World, he was confident, charming, endearing and fun in the first movie and it's odd people act like that began with Ragnarok.

    I think a lot of people miss the fact that Loki's plot was genuinely that he was pulling a simple prank that just escalated to the point where he gets Thor banished and he's just making it up as he goes along from there. Because I always see a bunch of arguments that like compare this to all the other convoluted schemes in superhero movies or talk about how his motivations seem to be all over the place and you can't tell when and where he's being genuine. But like I _really_ like that Loki's whole deal in this franchise is that he just fucked up really badly one day and he's just been doubling down on being the villain ever since. Overall, I like this movie. From an aesthetic standpoint, I think where they eventually take the look of Thor and the Asgardians look way better than it does here, but clearly they're just experimenting at this point. I like that the plot's pretty simple and self contained and you get the clear gist of what Thor from the comics is about. I think if I were to change one thing I would have it implied that Thor had been banished for a number of years prior to the events of this movie just to ease the transition of his redemption a bit better. Because we're already starting the movie in media res then jumping immediately into a flashback so you might as well fit in a substantial amount of time in between.

    In Norse mythology, Odin often disguised himself as a regular guy and walked around the realms. Stan Lee as Odin would’ve been a really neat way to tie all his cameos into MCU canon. Why is there a Stan Lee in every movie? Well he just kinda wandered into the plot while in disguise. Plus, it makes sense that the writer for so many of these characters took on the role of “The Allfather”

    This was nearly my favourite Marvel movie when it came out and is still in my top 10. The only thing I found held it back was the dynamic between Jane and Thor. Changing her from a nurse to a scientist really kneecapped her character and their relationship for me. If she's supposed to facilitate the development of the warrior prince with more arrogance than empathy a nurse who has to deal with difficult people and emotionally intensroommate

    Thor 1 did it’s job to introduce the character. It def wasn’t a 10/10 film and it was honestly just alright. It has some great things but doesn’t have too many bad things, however it was an overall passable movie that was competent and served it’s purpose to bring the character into the mix while maintaining that same energy/vibe from the rest of the films.

    Loki being controlled by the mind stone was originally only based on a fan theory. Loki was acting in his own. His character development requires this. Otherwise he's been a nothing character wasted away because the growth we see from him needs to be his own. If it's just due to a macguffin, Loki's character isn't as compelling. It would absolutely make him a simpler character, which might appeal to simple fans. But it's a BS theory/retcon. It keeps things simple, which is important when you're making things more complicated in the future, but originally it was not meant as this. This was a retcon based on fan reaction, and it was a bad one. Loki is a weaker character because of this

    The idea that the mind stone has a negative influence on those near it comes directly from within the first Avengers film and was mentioned by people involved with the film at the time of its release. Now, that's different than Loki being "controlled", so I would agree that characterization isn't right. But as an amplifier of Loki's Avengers1 nasty, yes, I think that makes perfect sense and fits with things said at the time of the film.

    Thor 2011 is actually one of the BEST films in the MCU. It is so well done that Thor Ragnarok actually uses it as a blueprint all the way through. All of the story beats, major events and the heavy in both movies connect and mirror each other. I'm certain Kenneth Branagh watched Ragnarok and took it as an homage.

    You are completely right. I've been wondering for a while now why Chris Hemsworth looks so strange in the first film compared to his other appearances and I couldn't put my finger on it. It's the eyebrows! Once you see it, you can't unsee it. Why on Earth would they take the time to dye his eyebrows for a whole film? And you're right about his beard too. Dye Beard. All this coupled with his shorter hair makes him look very strange compared to what we're now used to.
