It was definitely a different tone, but I felt like the arrogance was still there. He just kept getting put in check by... well, comic timing and slapstick.
To me it’s weird that he lost his eye. Technically, he’s not supposed to take over for Odin until millennia from now. At least that’s how the current (and legit AMAZING) run of “The Mighty Thor” and it’s predecessor “Thor: God of Thunder” tells it. At the literal end of time, Thor is sitting in the throne of Asgard, and has been there for something like a thousand years like. But that’s millions of years in the future.
Anyhoodles... I liked the nods to Walt Simonson’s iconic ‘80s run (“I’m sorry I turned you into a frog!”) and I loved Korg, even though that’s avsolutely nothing like the Korg of Planet Hulk and World War Hulk.
Still... best Thor movie. One of the best Marvel movies. Better than Guardians 2, that’s for goddamn sure.
Nice depiction of Hela and Surtur.
