@@MrTBSC You misunderstand. I liked the humor in Ragnarok. But this movie needed to be something different. All the MCU movies have taken after GotG and Ragnarok in making them constant goof-fests. Those movies were great for it, but it's becoming a rote trope. Remember the first Iron Man. He's literally executing terrorists. The humor present is limited and sparse in that film and it works so well. Why can't we have more of that? Especially when you get the actual American Psycho to play the lead villain called The God Killer. Its part of the reason the MCU has become so boring in recent years. Edit: I just noticed your post was collapsed. It seems we agree 😂

I have to admit, the emotional range Christian Bale shows in just this scene is truly magnificent. From his adoration and admiration at first beholding Rapu (You can tell he had longed for that moment his entire life), to briefly laughing along with Rapu and the dryads until he realizes the "joke" is on him, to his desperately begging for help and relief, to growing disillusionment over Rapu's callousness, to righteous anger as he renounces Rapu, which he then lets finally evolve into a calm, steely, merciless bloodlust. An amazing emotional journey in less than four minutes, and all portrayed flawlessly. Bravo!

Nando V Movies has a great video on this idea. The movie doesn't actually have a thesis for what makes a "Good" vs "Poor" god, and therefore muddies the waters with Gorr's mission. Rappu is the one shitty god he kills, but the other gods he kills are not characterized, whereas the ones he doesn't kill in Omnipotent City do seem shitty. But there doesn't seem to be any kind of standard to hold a god to vs a mortal.

He went from Player 1 Dhalsim to Player 2 Dhalsim really fast...

One could argue that the god guy was just that arrogant that he couldn't even conceive of the mortal using the sword on him, but we know the true reason is that Taika Waititi has undisguised contempt for the audience and goes out of his way to insult their intelligence. I mean, why was the sword even there at all? What are the odds that the one person in the whole universe who might get upset enough to kill a god blunders across the one, specific god that broke his heart and ruined his life mere moments after some guy brings the only thing that can kill a god to that exact location? On a related note, in the first Thor movie, Odin explicitly says on-screen about Asgardians that "we are not gods: we are born, we live, we die. Just as humans do, give or take 5000 years."

I don’t know the way I view it is always that he must be a timeless god and this isn’t his first civilization to fall in his name so he must either planet hop or literally waits for life to start again and in which case his perspective kind of makes sense more I’d be probably hate humans if I was god through out all of time and in a blink of any eye in their time a bunch of monkeys evolved and started splitting atoms and throwing them at eachother

This just calls back to *spoilers* Zeus's lament "when did we become the joke" and Rapu demonstrated it perfectly, you ignored ur followers and neglected their prayers with such arrogant apathy. Gawd this just feels like marvels version of suicide squad, what could've been an amazing and dark hero movie ruined by executive meddling and probably a piss ton of cut/scrapped scenes

If the source material is mediocre, the complementing material is mediocre and the production company has always been producing mediocrity, then no matter how good the director is: he will still produce mediocrity. He was one of the few reasons why I decided to watch some Marvel movies, but this specific movie showed that a production company that has been making garbage since Iron Man in 2008 will continue to make garbage, no matter what talented directors they get.

What I love about movies is that damn near every actor has no idea how to hold a weapon, throw a punch, or bother at all to take 2 minutes to learn where to place their hands so that something looks authentic. Makes actors like Keanu all the more special.

Can we also take a moment to appreciate actor Jonny Brugh here as Rapu. For an actor who usually plays comedic sidekick roles, he did a really good job of playing Rapu as an absolute arsehole, to the point where everyone in the theatre was cheering Gorr for killing him. Which is no small feat in only a few minutes of screen time, really.

I feel like it fits Rapu, like the water is a symbol of life, and it being dirty is a metaphor for Rapu not caring about the lives of others. Even if it wasn’t intentional, it works well as a metaphor for Rapu’s selfishness and how many lives it costed, and simultaneously what Gorr would become. I just wish the rest of the movie was as good as Gorr’s origin story.

Old Taika really tried to make this into a farce but Christian Bale showed up. Every scene with Gorr was awesome.

Bale never disappoints you , but movies will

"There's nothing for you after death, except death!" Since we saw Eternity, I had always thought that maybe Rapu was referencing the actual entity Death when he said that.

Everytime I watched a Christian Bale scene in this movie I wanted to tell him something like "don't worry man, you're taking your job as an actor too seriously. This is Marvel, it's like fantasy land". Hands down the most talented actor from this movie.

This movie really makes you feel like, “man, maybe gorr isn’t the villain here” 😅

We can all agree that Christian Bale was the only great thing in the whole movie. Everytime his character showed up on screen i was captivated.

Heard Christen Bale had to go get medical help after hurting his back after carrying this movie....he's alright now thank god but gave us all a worry there for a second. Also love the fact he stops laughing with everyone once he realized they aren't laughing with him in success but laughing at him in mocking him to think he has a reward for his devotion.

Why couldnt the movie be as good as this scene. Man they had me hyped here. Also input god of war 3 theme here 3:35

I would honestly love like a video game where you play as Gorr and trying to kill a bunch of gods- oh wait a damn minute

If you're curious on watching the movie, this is it folks...Best scene in the whole movie, and it's 2 minutes in.

I think one way to make the movie better is that we should have more of Gorr's POV, kind of like what they did with Thanos. More scenes, more Gods being slaughtered. If they have balls they can use known Gods and sacrificed them to Gorr.

I agree, but it shouldn't have been a movie, imo, it should've been a miniseries. The tonal stuff is the worst part of the movie, but it also introduces and then discards way too many ideas- they're bringing Jane back, making her the Mighty Thor, AND she has cancer. You still need to continue Thor's character arc from Ragnarok through Endgame. You have a person hellbent on killing all of the Gods, which incidentally is an aspect of your universe you never explored outside of the Asgardians. You have Thor with the GotG at least for part of it. It's just way too much to do justice in a movie, even if it was better made. A miniseries would make it easier to more fully develop the story, including having more Gorr scenes

Thor 4 should've probably been 2 movies or they could've made Gorr the big bad. Especially now that they either fired or are gonna fire Jonathon Majors, they need a top villain and they busted their load on a villain with a director who had no clue how to use him. In the comics he's more brutal and has more bloodlust. He's actually super scary. Here he feels kind of generic.
