Thor (Chris Hemsworth) finds out that Loki (Tom Hiddleston) has usurped the throne of Asgard when he forms an alliance with Hela (Cate Blanchett), the queen of the undead. She destroys Thor's hammer and exiles him to Sakaar, a faraway planet where Thor is enslaved and forced to become a gladiator by Sakaar's ruler, the Grandmaster (Jeff Goldblum). Thor befriends another gladiator, the Valkyre (Tessa Thompson), and finds out that the champion of the arena is the Hulk (Mark Ruffalo), who was exiled to Sakaar by Loki in retaliation for his humilliating defeat during the Battle of New York.
Thor and Hulk join forces to stop Hela and escape from Sakaar with Valkyrie's help, while being pursued by Hela's enforcer, Skurge (Karl Urban). Hela betrays Loki and kills Heimdall (Idris Elba), announcing her plans to use the Soul Stone to revive the dead and unleash Ragnarok upon the Nine Realms. Loki joins Thor and Hulk and reveals that Thor's father Odin (Anthony Hopkins) has been banished to Earth. The trio locates him with help from Dr. Stephen Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) and learn of Janbjorn, an ancient weapon that can stop Hela. Thor retrieves it and returns to lead the forces of Asgard in battle against Hela, her army and the monstrous fire giant Surtur.
Skurge realizes Hela has been manipulating him and helps fend off the undead, while Thor defeats Surtur and retrieves the Soul Stone, returning Hela to confinement and restoring Odin as the king. Loki then betrays them and steals the Soul Stone, which he delivers to Thanos (Josh Brolin) in exchange for being pardoned for his failures. Thanos then prepares to launch his campaign to assemble the Infinity Gauntlet.
Evan Cooper
>Loki then betrays the protagonist for the 4th fucking time because "let's trust Loki for some reason"
i'll torrent it maybe
Noah Harris
So they are barely going to spend any time on that banished planet huh? Way to butcher planet Hulk.
Joshua Gonzalez
Sounds like a mess.
Nolan Campbell
sounds like another mediocre and generic movie wasting a lot of potential, just like the other 2 movies
Carter Long
Sounds like it has the potential to be a jumbled mess that doesn't feature any significant character development
I mean, I know that describes 90% of Marvel movies, but still
Aiden Hernandez
>Loki betrays everyone again Are they every going to do anything more with his character??
Brayden Taylor
when are they going to kill loki like all the other villains?
Cameron Young
Infinity War.
Asher Gutierrez
>Loki >God of Mischief >Not manipulating and betraying all the time
You should be asking yourself, why everyone else keeps trusting him?
Looks alright. Kinda wish Loki wasn't so much of a focus but oh well, they have to get those tumblerinas in the seats. Benedict and Tom in the same movie, that will get the bitches in the seats.
Caleb Moore
>Skurge (Karl Urban) my nigga
Levi Russell
>Benedict and Tom in the same movie, that will get the bitches in the seats. just wait till Cumberbatch and Freemans characters meet and do a Sherlock joke.
Jordan Martinez
literally his final appearance in infinity war is guaranteed to be this >noble """" sacrifice """" to help heroes escape and/or weaken thanos >end credits scene of him polishing the gauntlet and smirking at the camera with glowing eyes >"I just couldn't... " **electro monster sound effect** "...resist."
he's the only reason to see the film >It'll be Cumberbatch and Downey Jr. oh yeah i forgot about that
Bentley Russell
that literally is his character
Nicholas Ramirez
welcome to norse mythology
James Price

Aiden Howard
Bros I'm not sure I can tolerate this trash after watching the masterpiece that was Logan
Blake Lopez
taika watiti is a good director, you can have two films that are nothing alike and both be good
John Brooks
>Ragnarok turned into a buddy comedy >kino "no"
Nathan Robinson
i wonder if nordic warlords are looking down from heaven in tears about how their religion has been turned into corporate trash
Evan Cox
how does he make mediocre films so great?
Jace Butler
But Thor has long hair when he meets doctor strange and short hair in the arena. Explain.
Easton Sanchez
this could be the best movie ever made if cate blantchett shows muff
Camden Johnson
At the very least they have realised that Thor can't carry these films by himself, the character/acting is just way too stiff to manage it. Giving this a bit of a planet hulk vibe is pretty cool to be honest.
The majority of the rest reads like absolute fucking trash though and will be a CGI shitshow. At least the arena should (at least I bloody hope, assuming they have brains) be longer takes and somewhat gritty and practical effects driven. But we all know the 'big ending' will just further make people apathetic to these films. Ruined iron man 3.
This has to be the last time Loki changes teams though. He needs to die when confronted along with thanos. So fucking sick of how they're using him. Well, less how they use him and more how Captain Autism AKA Thor fucking buys into it every fucking time. Comic/Norse lore be damned, Thor is a shit lead and his portrayal is frustrating as all hell.
While doing anal.
Brandon Hughes
hasn't she already done that?
Carter Bell
It grows back.
Jaxon Garcia
Yeah isn't forgiveness a Christian thing? Why would Norse gods bother with it?
Lucas Cook
>Hela betrays Loki and kills Heimdall (Idris Elba), announcing her plans to use the Soul Stone to revive the dead and unleash Ragnarok upon the Nine Realms.

Justin Miller
Heimdall's eyes confirmed as Soul Stone
Isaiah Butler
Germanic culture is big on paying your way to forgiveness. Sometimes literally with gold, or with punishment, like being chained to a cave floor with snake venom dripping into your wounds.
Bentley Diaz
Implying you won't see it on opening night
Andrew Wright
Thor films are never kino.
Lucas Stewart
Who do you trust more? Loli or CIA?
Xavier Hill
He isn't even blond anymore, what the Hel!
Aiden Allen
Or the blood eagle 'lung wings' method of torture which should have been done to Loki by now
Hunter Nguyen
Thor looking daddy af
Elijah Bell
>Heimdall (Idris Elba)
Nigs in Valhalla. Really Marvel?
Ethan Walker
All those spoilers are cool and all, but does my boy Urban make it alive? I want him to keep making that Marvel money, fucker deserves it.
Jose James
Oh boy I wonder if ragnarok involves a blue laser being fired into the sky at some point
Connor Peterson
>betrayed >betrayed >betrayed >betryaed
jfc, marvel writing is so pathetically low
Isaiah Reyes
No because he isn't the only one to have that post.
Austin Powell
lolis only provide cuddles and oral so the loli
Luis Gomez
>Thor defeats Surtur Why even pretended that this is even inspired by norse mythology in any way at all? There isn't any point in even keeping the names, just make 100% Hollywood original.
Nolan Jackson
So Loki is pretty much guaranteed to take the place of Mephisto in Infinity Gauntlet.
Brody Edwards
is ghost rider going to be in infinity war, he is the strongest mutant marvel has, even better than logan
Brody Watson
>No more Mjolnir
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FUCK THIS
MJOLNIR IS THE WEAPON FOR THOR. IT'S EVEN IN THE MYTHOLOGY
THE FUCK IS JANBJORN?
Samuel Sanders
In comics, it's Thor's weapon before he got Mjolnir for being a good boy.
Now it's some kind of superweapon or something who knows
Colton Ward
No. His character arc revolves around Serve villainess/fall in love with her/ sick of being treated badly/ helps Thor/ sacrifies himself.
Chase Torres
Janbjorn is the evolved version of Mjolnir, far more durable and powerful, learn you're lore autist.
Camden Lewis
Thor's magic axe.
Parker Garcia
>sick of being treated badly/ helps Thor/ sacrifies himself.
Trash.
Hunter Green
When are they just going to fucking kill loki or lock him up?
Jordan Green
When he stops drawing the female demographic or when Diddleston's contract gets too expensive
Jose Harris
next avengers
Robert James
Thats how it is senpai.
Ian Richardson
Why is Marvel universe and mythos so fucking retarded? It's like it was written for 10yr olds.
John Sanders
>It's like it was written for 10yr olds.
Wow, sounds like comic books.
Ethan Price
You can also have two films that are nothing alike and one of them suck balls.
Justin Foster
Rotten Tomato score predictions, everyone?

Justin Bell
I didnt realize DCucks were SJWs.
Matthew Barnes
>karl urban turns good im ok with this
Adam Roberts
>Loki betrays them yet again What a fucking marvellous plot twist My fucking sisters favorite movie of all time is Thor the dark world, probably because she schlicks to Hiddleston, so I'm sure I'm probably gonna hear about this shit too.
Logan Sanchez
My money is on this
Henry Cruz
Unfair Karl Urban is the only living actor I actually enjoy watching. Maybe Christian Bale, but that's about it.
Evan Johnson
Its probably gonna be the best scene. So theres that.
Benjamin Wood
>killing off the only enduring, noteworthy villain in the MCU
Marvel can be stupid, but they aren't THAT stupid.
Dominic Brooks
I don't know, but I hope he never stops.
Ayden Thomas
Are you fucking serious nigger?
In EVERY ITERATION OF THE LOKI CHARACTER, FROM HIS ORIGINAL INCEPTION INF FUCKING MYTHOLOGY he has BETRAYED PEOPLE.
What a marvelous cunt you are.
Jayden Sullivan
Goddamn, that is some badass shit.
Luke Reed
It's a shit character then. >but muh comics Kill yourself
Parker Barnes
who the hell carreessss
Lucas Baker
I come from the future to bring you KINO
Isaiah Jones
I also bring news that DC is back!!
Tyler Collins
first rotten MCU flick, calling it now
Ian Hughes
>loki befriends and betrays thor >again
i feel like i've already seen this movie
is ragnarok a giant evil cloud?
Lucas Green
69 However this one I might actually watch Seems like some REAL silly shit, hopefully there's at least a couple good scenes on Sakaar with the Green Scar and the Brood of Broodworld
Blake Jones
70%+ so that makes it really a 45% when you take away Disney's bribe reviews
Jaxon Gray
So when is he getting the hammer back? Id even take the ultimate version
Colton Wood
>Thanos then prepares to launch his campaign to assemble the Infinity Gauntlet. Hasn't that happened already in like 5 movies? Do people even care to see that again?
Jonathan James
So Ragnarok doesn't actually happen? Why call it Ragnarok then?
>Thanos then prepares to launch his campaign to assemble the Infinity Gauntlet. This happens in every fucking movie he showed up at the end of.
Evan Cruz
His comic book sacrifice was actually pretty well done. The whole run was great (written by JMS):
>It's been a few years since Ragnarok and all the Norse gods are presumed dead >Turns out Thor managed to undo/stop (I forget) the Cycle and the gods are alive, only amnesiac and trapped in human forms >Thor gets back to earth and frees his brethren >Sick of Loki's shit, he refused to free him, because comics Thor is actually a competent hero >Loki predicted this, and so took over Sif's (Thor's old GF) body "by accident" so when Thor tried to free her he freed him instead >Loki promises he's changed after the whole end of the world thing and Thor doesn't really want to kill him since he hasn't done anything wrong yet so he gives him a chance >Loki spends the next few years subtly manipulating events behind the scenes, resulting in Thor being banished, Odin trapped in Muspelheim, Thor's grandpa Bor dead, and Balder ruling over a weak and divided Asgard >meanwhile Loki's made deals with Doom, Mephisto, Hela, Osborn and pretty much every other notable magical and/or criminal entity for power, influence and favors, from running false flag attacks to hiring god-killing wights to becoming super-immortal >end-game of legitimately ruling Asgard as the new Allfather is almost there >plan goes pear-shaped when Osborn goes mad and attacks Asgard >no matter, we're gods, we can beat his band of villains >turns out Osborn was trying to manipulate an insane reality warper and only pushed him over the edge >Loki is forced to watch his home and his family die at the hands of some insane abomination >has a breakdown, finally realizes all his scheming and powerplays have caused nothing but pain and misery to everyone, himself included >dies to save Asgard
And he ended up staying as dead as possible for Marvel Norse gods - his next incarnation (think a more severe Time Lord mechanism) was vastly different and genuinely heroic (and hated the old him).
Jordan Watson
>what so the apocalypse doesn't happen in x-men apocalypse
>why call it apocalypse?! >I totally thought that they would all die in this comic book movie!
but maybe thor does die
>avengers has been filming for months now >he hasn't been anywhere they are filming
Jack Lopez
It's clearly named for the villain, you ninny.
Aaron Nelson
Infinity War just started filming like a week ago. Besides, Thor and Hulk are the most OP characters in the MCU, so it makes sense that they're saving them for later.
Cameron Johnson
He wouldn't be the god of mischief if everyone around him wasn't a fucking moron.
Daniel Stewart
Actually, that describes BvS to the T.
Henry Wright
Thor and Hulk won't be in part 1 until the very end where the avengers are getting stomped and they miraculously come to rejoin them and save the day setting up for part 2 with the full team
