The next step would to be to laugh at all the people so insecure in their own masculinity that they find a female hero to be a problem

Yeah, it's totally the fact that she's female and not the fact that they're turning a well known character into a different gender instead of introducing her as her own character.

I mean, just look at all that "hate" that Scarlet Witch, Shuri, Black Widow, Gamora, Valkyrie, MJ, Okoye, Mantis, Nebula, America Chavez get from those big mean women hating MCU fans...

Tell me you haven't read the comics without telling me you haven't read the comics.

Or maybe it's a super genius detail to be concerned over. Did that ever cross your hivemind?
No you are just being..... so yes they are what humans would call asian looking.

The Vanir share many physical traits and attributes with the Asgardians, such as their enhanced durability, strength, speed, and longevity. Their appearance is akin to humans and Asgardians, but the Vanir resemble humans of Asiatic decent while the Asgardians resemble humans of European or African decent. The physical characteristics of the Vanir are also not that much different from the Asgardians.

Their culture seems to be different from the Asgardians. While the Asgardians are a warrior, space-faring race, the Vanir are not known to have a history of great battles and rely on the Asgardian armies to defend them and their Realm, Vanaheim. They also seem to be less technologically advanced than Asgardians and even humans, living in tents while most of their planet is densely wooded. Throughout the landscape of Vanaheim, various columns and arches can be seen, which presumably have cultural or historical significance.

Oh man, maybe I am biased because I think Thor is definitely my among favorite heroes in the MCU if he isn't #1 outright, But this looks absolutely amazing.

Hemsworth has just captured everything that makes Thor great at this point. Throw in his sidekick Korg and the comedy from Ragnarok and now into Love and Thunder is what will make this movie brilliant.


f*** I cant wait to see this.

God I hope they don’t f*** this one up. Thor’s been my favorite.

Also, Bale is a freak.

Excited for Bale as Gorr, but it does seem like almost an entirely different movie from the rest of the trailer. Curious how they manage to tie it all together.

Also, seems like a lot to fit into one movie. Gotta resolve the "Asgardians of the Galaxy," get Thor Odinson back into shape, introduce and presumably explain Jane as Thor/Mjolnir wielder, address Valkyrie as king of Asgard, introduce Gorr and build him up as a villain, deal with whatever is going on with Zeus, resolve Thor Odinson and Jane's relationship in some fashion, and then have the Marvel-mandated big climactic battle in Act 3. And presumably another nod to whatever cosmic/multiversal threats they're building up.

Hemsworth corrected the movie's length to be exactly two hours.

That seems something that will get done in a minute or two long montage. Maybe shorter.

Not saying all of these things will take massive amounts of time, but stringing a lot of events together in a way that doesn't feel jarring or awkward can be a challenge. I trust Waititi to pull it off, but there are other MCU directors I wouldn't.
