THOR: LOVE AND THUNDER Clip - "Gorr Kills Rapu" (2022) Marvel 

Lmfao

The movie was great. Numbers don't lie

​@Dee Lewis numbers don't lie Thor love and thunder did the worst in the box office out of all the marvel movies in 2022 because it was awful

@@deelewis8061 Ye but you do. You lie because you're just aroused.

@@deelewis8061 what drug are you on to say that?

hes the one who takes everything seriously ...with passion ...just like cillian and keanu ......unlike the whole fcking M She U and their "wokeness"

I mean...the other actors arent doing the comedy things with their own will tho...they just doing what the directors say...so yeah everyone is taking it serious except the director...

lmao but true

100% he's the only who actually showed up to work.

@@shreysharma726 snowflake, stop complaining about women in your super heroe movies nerd

he was batman for a reason

He was too good for this film. Taika Waititi is a one trick pony, any attempt at a serious plot is beyond him. Joe Joe Rabbit only worked because he could frame everything as a joke from the child's perspective.

@@Valehass Just made this same comment. If he wanted to tell a serious story, he needed to get rid of the Ragnarok humor. Gorr is slaughtering everyone Thor cares about and cannot be beaten. Jane is dying. But hey, we still have time for zany hijinks! Naked Thor! Hahahaha!

​@@Alicthewriter "he needed to get rid of the Ragnarok humour" ... i think ragnarok´s humour was rather well placed ... i mean it´s still a film with a literally unstoppable antagonist that only was defeated by having the world/planet she was on corenuked ... Dark World had less humour but still was bland the first thor movie even with a balanced amount humour was decent at best soooo i think it´s not so much a matter of not having any humour but simply a well told and presented story ... the problem is Love and Thunder went TOO over the top with the humor AND had a bland story

@@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 😂

Yep. Thats the rushed nature of the MCU. Things that should be drawn out are only 5 minutes and things that should only be 5 minutes are drawn out

He was only missing the tears and red eyes of despair.

Disagree.

​@@carlrice1774 Who would you say is better?

@@terronymusbraddock2350 DDL

Bale is the GOAT

​@@rrbcraftergames3361 He's retired. And what makes him better than Bat(e)man?

Agree

All MCU is. They turned all their characters into clowns.

That's why I can't stand this movie. Gorr is the most broken (emotionally) and this movie made him a joke. Seriously, look at his comics wiki page, it's a backstory the puts Batman's to shame. Same with a lot of other characters.

Agreed this movie was pure trash

Then we are agreed...

I didn't even realize it was Christian Bale to begin with

he's looking if is there any paul allens card on sight

Y'all do realize that Bale didn't show up and write his own scenes right? He nailed them, yes, but he didn't decide the lines or tone, that was the writers and Taika.

@@godzilla90fan he literally beat up the casting director and threw out the script. he literally showed up and improved the entire scene. he really killed that guy

What lies ahead was essentially Batman & Robin. Toy advertisement for children.

utter shit lied ahead. I had the same reaction..." Wow this is actually good so far i wonder what is bad about the movie"... and once the movie ended i wish i hadn't wasted my time.

I had that exact reaction

Haha I thought the same thing when I put it on a while back. "Holy shit, this is amazing! I love this movie!" And it was all downhill from there.

This villain has a lot of potential and can give serious theme of movie (loss of faith, uncertainties). But, nope.

this movie feels like it was much longer, maybe more serious, then it was cut down so the pacing feels off and too many jokes were kept in. this movie could have been a fantastic tragedy.

He was the wrong villain for Love and Thunder because he doesn't fit with the comic tone. Ragnarok worked a lot better because of the relationship between Thor and Hulk/Banner. To me, this should have been a darker story and being so silly, it kind of clashes with Gorr and his mission.

​@@clanwaddell5628 IMO, the comic tone is not the problem. The story doesn't dive further to the theme the villain brought (loss of faith).

@@nungsap that's a good take. I finally watched Guardians 3 and the level of writing and character work is so much better in that movie.

@@clanwaddell5628they probably didn’t want a repeat of Thor the dark world so they made it more comedic than it needed to be.

It's "should've" punk. Smh

@@RedPilledDude369 Don't be that guy bro

@@user-ih6oe9ny3j I hate to be that guy bro. But it's like the cut on the roof of your mouth that you can't stop tonguing.

doesn't mean you have to be rude about it​@@RedPilledDude369

I agree. At least give him his own film where the gods he kills are justified, then make him the main bad guy in a different film.

KRATOS: AM I A JOKE TO YOU?

Yea, one of the world's greatest. There's Daniel Day Lewis, and then him, IMO.

@@jorgetomedeandradealves8565 Kratos is a joke.

@@paulievespucci6867 bro how

Imagine Morbius fighting Gorr as Joker fighting Batman.

Not if you take life and anybody in it for granted.. including yourself!. Some things change some never. Life as a game of chess or snake and ladders are not permanent constructs but interesting set of opportunities - the idea that nothing is meant to last anyway, so us rat people left to run the rat race while logic dictates, god's dispose, chaos reigns, and the sun keeps the known galaxie (everything in it) eternally bound together! .. Death is really that gift of Jail release we never realise the freedom it delivers.

Like Abraham?

@@brianbrowning9064 ?

@@harvey271 Yeh, I'm confused by this, what did that guy mean?

@@johnorulzu quick google: Abraham might’ve sacrificed his child Isaac to God (not sure though)

Ledger made Bale better.

Agreed. His world, his people were suffering, dying - he did nothing but mock them , laughing at thier pain..

Can we also take a moment to appreciate the acting of New Zealand actor Jonny Brugh (star of What We Do In The Shadows) in this scene? For an actor who usually plays comedic roles he does a really good job of playing the god Rapu as an absolute arsehole. He really sold the character, to the point where everyone was cheering Gorr for killing him. No small achievement in only a few minutes of screen time.

Idk, Ares was a real prick.

Extremely dumb too. Ah yes there's a god killing sword there, best make this guy that worships me completely hate me instead.

​@@theshillneckedlizard8364 Comedians had always higher range than most actors. Bill Burr, Adam Sandler, Jim Carrey, etc.

Absolutely! It's always amazing to watch a scene where privileged people (or beings) with power look down on those they deem inferior with ridicule, contempt, and disgust only to tremble with fear and shock when someone they viewed as insignificant gains enough power to get on equal, or greater footing with them.

This basic surface level writing really hits well for you guys huh

@@Tjerty Do you NOT like seeing pompous pricks getting what they deserve? The rest of the movie was questionable but alot of it with Gorr in it was pretty good. I am mostly just speaking for this scene not the movie if thats what you mean.

@@bibby659 I like Gorr, and just Gorr. Rapu feels like a child's cartoon level villain. Like, yeah, ok, I'm supposed to hate this guy I get it, but I just can't care about him because of how lame the whole scene is (except for Gorr). What I mean is that Rapu could've been a lot less corny to make Gorr's backstory hit a little better is all.

Heh, heh, it was a good moment! pssst "gall".

2 months late, but I think itd be for the best if you didnt watch the rest of the movie. Just pretend it was equally as good.

Haha I already heard. I'll watch it to end but I know not to expect too much. The performance was momerable enough I'll probably only remember that. @@B1aLaF

yup... is the thing with humanizing comic villains in movie adaptations.... you end up rooting for them, or at least understanding them

Hell yeah

Yes gods are cruel and overrated

Actually without you and your Israel/nato circus 🎪 this universe not less even a little

I wouldn't say that given that he was under the influence of a murderous symbiote.

@@carlycrays2831 didn't he renounce those gods once he knew they we upto no good

If they took it seriously it would’ve been The Dark World all over again

Woke shit

Yeah. The MCU stopped taking itself seriously and that’s to its detriment.

Not really. This shows that Bale was the only one willing to make a serious movie and got stuck with taikas crap instead.

Dude is a joke of a director, this movie had potential with a great villain and actor playing that villain and he wasted it. The MCU is truly dead at this point.

@@jasonrice6966 I think he struggles with serious movies. He needs to learn to take things seriously. Jojo Rabbit was good. And so was that pirate romantic comedy on HBO. He just struggled with serious stuff.

Chekov's Gun was first coined in the 1880's

Nobody can just wield the sword at will. Like he said, the sword chose Gorr. But yeah his arrogance is what got him killed.

@@thelaughindustry773and by all means! Let it happen!

Funny, thats 100% how it happened in the comics. One entir issue was basically dedicated to Thor traveling around from world to world, to the cathedrals, and finding only butchered corpses.

It kinda happens here as well, just a much shorter journey.

Not a hard man to find...He leaves dead bodies wherever he goes!

No Gods, No Masters.

The storyline of Gorr in the comics is epic af, sadly Taika Waititi turned it into a dumb comedy skit, similar with what he did with the Ragnarok & Planet Hulk story-arcs.

It was alluded to by Zeus and Thor that Gorr had killed many gods. But they couldn't show that, they were too busy doing really shitty version of SNL skits, as tautological as that sounds.

Is Gorr really a villain tho? To me the god in this scene is the villain.

He kidnaps and held hostage a group of kids-

Gorr is right, but his methods are wrong

​@@Akatsukileader9are they though? Selfish gods should die.

Who says? Maybe he should have reasoned with them like in this scene?

The Asgardians were just as bad

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.

No you definitely would. Remember The Dark World? It would’ve been another version of that

Exactly, this movie could've been action packed

Yeah but that would have been too expensive and entertaining, instead Taika needed the budget for CGI Goats who scream.

It actually makes sense for him to not even bother. All Black is underpowered and cut off from Knull and, much like the symbiotes in the Sony films, is slowly killing Gorr. Going after Eternity makes a lot of sense.

I thought the whole zeus and his arrogant court thing was going to result in a massacre where Gorr arrives after they ignore Thor's warning and starts taking heads left and right. Wasted potential and an entire section of the movie wasted as what did that entire scene with Zeus and that area achieve that couldnt have been done elsewhere in a 5 minute scene? "oh thats where he's probably headed"

@@EddieSpaghetti555 The screaming goats are actually in the old thor comics strange tales. Its from source material.

What meaning?! Gods are dicks and you should murder them?! Dude me thinks you’re reading a bit too far into this one.

True

So true, this scene and the premise of actual gods living amongst people, seems so much interesting that what the whole movie was about

Yeah , but we actually have a life. And have better things to do than to "think about it".

How so?.."The Lord" isn't a tyrant in anyway like what is shown here, in truth this is how Satan views humanity, the people in Hollywood who make this filth are completely sold out to Satan, and this shows that.

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."

@@ElriuhiluDude, that’s literally how fiction work😂

@@antekmoniek7077 There's a limit to how many coincidences can happen at the same time and still be believable. Writing a non-comedic scene in which too many unrelated things happen that weren't set up earlier because "otherwise there would be no story" is the mark of either an amateur or someone who doesn't give a shit and just wants to get it done so they can go home. The way this scene unfolds is as if a ten year old was playing in his backyard, making up the story on the spot. "Then the god says 'hahaha, I don't care that you're sad about everyone being dead because I'm a bad guy. You can't hurt me anyway.' But the god didn't know I have the only thing that can kill a god, it's the, uh..."-quickly looks around and sees a stick-"it's this sword. The sword of, uh, dea- the Death-sword! So I easily kill the guy and then I say 'all gods will die' and I look cool and awesome. Mum, can I have an ice lolly?" What they should have done instead of this scene is something like: have the guy with the sword attack a different god and injure them before being defeated, to demonstrate the sword is lethal to gods; have the sword then escape being destroyed by dissolving away into the shadows so we know the sword is alive or sentient or whatever; then separate from all that, have Gorr find Rapu's garden and find out Rapu is a complete fuckhead; Rapu breaks the last piece left of Gorr's heart, Gorr falls into anguished rage and denounces Rapu, who has such contempt for mortals that he simply laughs and throws Gorr into a ravine or something; Gorr weeps openly with impotent rage as nearby shadows coalesce into the shape of the Necrosword; the sword soothes Gorr's broken heart, tells him what Rapu did is unforgivable and that it will give Gorr the power to punish Rapu; Gorr accepts and takes up the sword; he returns to Rapu's garden, Rapu gets annoyed that he came back and tries to kill him as if he were a simple pest, but doesn't realise Gorr has the Necrosword now and is executed; as Rapu dies, the sword tells Gorr that all gods are like Rapu, arrogant and contemptuous, so Gorr announces "then all gods must die" and the scene ends.

Its pretty clear that some ancient powerful being had been wandering around with the sword for a long time; but, based on the reactions of the other gods, not nearly as dangerous as Gorr; it wasn't until Gorr acquired the sword that the gods were in a panic, fleeing, running; most likely, something about Gorr makes him more dangerous than his predecessor once he has the sword; after all, could you imagine this gold-bleeding wanker being able to casually murder someone that can stand up to two Thors in a fight? No. They thought the threat was done, that Gorr was helpless, and they had no reason to worry. @@Elriuhilu

Yeah, weird why they do that. Also, I wish Bale would get rid of it as it's quite distracting.

I thought the same thing

It's still a good movie.

He was a bit too cartoonishly evil for this scene to be effective imo. Like Bale's acting is great, but the whole plot only starts because of this scene and I can't take it seriously otherwise.

Because Gods in Marvel are more like aliens than actual gods at least the lesser ones, yeah some of them gain power by worship, but some are powerful even without it, and this God stated that simply can choose another species of intelligent creatures, revealing himself on one form or another.

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

well, if he was immortal he could just wait until the world evolved sentient life again or was colonized, and it seems like he'd done it before.

The eternal reward is the pink slip.

He really indeed is. We gotta think about his effort.

A God is still a God. How can a child kill a man if he's but a child type of thing just xause he's a God of flowers doesn't mean he doesn't have godlike power

Interestingly, this movie came out after the King in Black event in the comics. Since the movies are just another universe and all symbiotes are connected, it is likely that All Black is cut off from Knull and not at its full power.

why do people think he was the god of flowers? He was clearly that worlds Sun God, huge, bronzed skin, head with a crown of radiant lines of gold with light always shining from him. Gorr even calls him the "bringer of light". Flowers? No i don't think so.

@@JTheTeach or maybe the god of light bulbs or flashlights, hence the title "bringer of light

theres a comic about gorr, in it two god like creatures fight both wielding powerful swords. In the scene you see slashes on the dead guy meaning he has a blade

Dude, I've been saying the exact same thing about Waititi.

@@talos6202 See, thank you. I was saying this stuff since Ragnarok came out. The dude can do visuals and some good comedy, but he completely sacrificed any notion of emotional impact or story in both Ragnarok + Love and Thunder. And I really don't get how this is the guy who made JoJo Rabbit. There, he knew how to make the horrors of the real life situations he was drawing from hit hard whilst mocking it with dark comedy.

​@calebnichols7069 my guess is Thor lacks the emotional weight he is best at contrasting with

WWDITS is a great show. Idk how he screwed up the mcu. Maybe on purpose

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.

hahaha ikr

Well, he is a God.

Gods can do that if you've seen sone greek mythology stories

Or pissing off an American Psycho

yeah

With Marvel going full gear into the Multiverse I thought it would be a perfect time to bring in Knull and by extension the Symbiotes.

​@@owenbicker799 what r u talking about? Symbiote you mean the venom guy or ?

​@@omar619kamis the sword is the symbiote god aka venom, carnage, etc. THE symbiote.

Sony 😂😂

Real actors are still around, they can't get work because Hollywood is such a joke.

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 see, I agree. It's not the actor's fault they did their best, especially Bale he was awesome as Gorr. but the writing was bad, that made the movie 👎

“oH mY gOd hE sHoUld gEt oScAr” Can we please stop calling for Oscars any time we witness actors demonstrating mildly competent acting?

@@theshillneckedlizard8364 I'd love to get choked by him

@@bbradley92 Why are people so emotionally invested in acting awards anyway???

I imagine Rapu wouldn't dare let a drop of water fall onto his tongue. No, that would be to revolting to have happen. Rapu probably only drinks some kind of wine.

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.

Ain’t no sequel

And if there is, it’ll be a 3 hour slapstick comedy.

​@@captjackp Agreed

​@@petrri323 Very true

"guys, religion bad. now gimme my reddit gold while i tip my fedora and scratch my pimpled neckbeard"

Good reason to even Zeus in real myths was an asshole quite a few times.

Don't forget Hyperion from the movie Immortals (2011).

Also wasting GotG ...

Don't worry not the first time Bale healed from a back injury and crawled out of a giant hole.

I'm pretty sure something very similar to that is what happened in the comics.
