Looks like THOR was ripped right out the 1980's

even the movies logo is right out the 80's

Jane Foster Thor are straight from the comic series. Which was very successful. Jane Thor might also be a variant b/c the multiverse is very much a thing now. Jane's Mjolnir doesn't look like Earth 616 Mjolnir. It almost looks like the Casket of Ancient Winters that's been broken and glued together. That's why it didn't go to Chris Hemsworth Thor. Maybe, just my interpretation.



This is Thor's movie to redeem himself. Him being fat was a metaphor of all his losses throughout the MCU despite being the God of Thunder. He lost his mom, dad, brother, Heimdall, and half his people BEFORE Thanos. In Endgame he's a mess and even begs to wear the gauntlet to bring everyone back "just let me do something good, something meaningful" was his line. But he wasn't fit to do so. It wasn't for hahas. His story is actually kinda sad if you think about it.



Both can be true. Odin blessed Mjolnir...whoever holds this hammer, shall he be worthy shall possess the power of Thor.



Millions disagree.

I read the comics and didnt care for the Jane Thor arc…at all.

I’m not debating the name / title issue other than it’s a huge fucking retcon and don’t care for it.

Jason Aaron fucked up the character IMO.

The writers in Endgame made him fat to humanize him…except he’s not human. Stupid characterization to “make him relatable”. IMO.

I’m well aware that many disagree and I really dgas.

Thor’s probably my favorite Marvel comics character…the MCU, not so much. May not see it.

Just got back from Dr strange. Boy was I disappointed. I loved the original Dr strange. This one just didn't do it for me. I feel the current MCU formula is just so tired. The cheesey one liners, the similar story arcs for main heros etc. It just feels soooo corporate.
Not to mention the heros and villains powers always seem to vary in every damn movie. In one movie Dr strange seems like a master of his powers, in this movie it seemed like he could barely get out of his own way.
I won't even mention how I feel about his hair and makeup. Lol

I am not happy to hear this. I am not a huge fan of the whole multi-verse concept, but I really like the Doctor Strange chatacter. My son has been asking to go see it.

I mean it wasn't terrible by any means. Just a disappointment to his follow-up film. I had higher expectations. My main concern w these movies is how they are essentially a copy and paste of the movie before it. Marvel is def riding this wave until it crashes.
I'd def go and take your son to see it. He'll probably still enjoy it.

Finally went to see Dr Strange - and I found it enjoyable , I liked the illuminati concept - as I thought that was cool in the comics - and thought the actor cast as Reed Richards was very good.

I don't mind the whole Multiverse thing -- and the fanboy in me would love to see a Defenders movie with the characters from the late seventies early eighties comics -- not sure how it would do at the box office though! :laugh2:

Didn't Thor wear that suit as he was cursed by Hela - a curse that meant his bones were brittle and he wore the suit as protection against this. I thought that was one of the coolest Thor's ever - coincided with Avengers best run imo - late 200's.

Dr. Strange needed more multiverse.

It wasn't the movie I was expecting. Still trying to process it. Right now it's a 6.5/10.

My wife really like it, I was kinda, "Meh."

So we're supposed to really believe that Dr. Strange is ultimately a bad guy, no matter what?

Am I the only one who finds the current portrayal of Thor (Ragnarok, Endgame, Love and Thunder by the look of the trailer s) to be way too “jokey”? I don’t mind some humor, but I think they’ve gone over the top. Anyone else feeling this way?

No, you’re not the only one.

Yes, IMO it’s over the top.

Been reading Thor since I could read. A long, long, long time ago.

I‘m a classic Thor fan. Modern Thor portrayals, not so much.

The trailers are cringey. IMO.

YMMV
