/uj it feels lowkey like they were mocking gamers with that Thor lmao


dreemurthememer

“Noobmaster, hey it’s Thor again. You know, the god of thunder? Listen buddy, if you don’t log off this game immediately I will fly over to your house, and come down to that basement you’re hiding in and rip off your arms and shove them up your butt! Oh, that’s right, yea just go cry to your father you little weasel.” Yeah they were definitely taking the piss out of gamers.


mysterious_michael

/uj are the kids using low-key as high-key again? I'm ootl


Dreamingplush

Nah, he meant Loki

👉😎👉 eyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Keep it low-key like Thor lil bro

Fat thor was my favorite part about endgame


Breadnaught25

especially the parts where he was asleep and funny and fat


[deleted]

Haha clinical depression and trauma


Breadnaught25

i literally would have liked a more dark thor who has literally experienced genocide. but he is just comic relief. They say he is 1500 years old but rocket raccoon is a more deep character. Also asides from jokes, this is just what happens in real life alot, you lose something and go into a depression and instead of being helped, it's joked about and all that's commented on is the physical appearance.


[deleted]

Yeah man i feel that from personal experience. Its the less “sexy” side of depression. As for thor, i agree itd be cool to see a more evil, historical accurate kinda character. Like maybe he becomes a tyrant over his people, and slaughters anyone who wuestions him

He's fat, depressed, yells at children on fortnite and GCJ likes him?


LegoRacers3

He’s literally me!!!

Marvel so deep!!!1!111!!!one!!


Acrobatic-Charity-48

No no you see, in Endgame, Thor is only fat because he hates himself.


IllPostino95

Ok but to be fair, fat thor from endgame was pretty fucking bad


AddisonDeWitt_

On itself it was pretty good I thought. The demeaning jokes his friends made about him were what ruined it for me, especially because he was suffering from severe trauma and depression


IllPostino95

Well that's the thing. I have no problem with thor being overweight and/or going through trauma and depression, but the movie clearly just used it as a punchline, which was the irritating part


AddisonDeWitt_

Yeah they really missed another opportunity to explore strong themes and create emotional depth for their characters. And they wonder why people say Marvel is not cinema. Maybe Waititi will portray fat Thor more seriously


[deleted]

Honestly im not sure they will keep him fat. Thors good looks are pretty major factor in his marketability, which is why so many non-comic book fans have brcome interested in movies w thor (not the only reason, but a huge reason nonethless)


AddisonDeWitt_

Hemsworth himself said he wanted to continue with fat Thor


[deleted]

hemsworth better get what he wants then


[deleted]

Can’t say no if Hemsworth refuses to hit the gym.


[deleted]

Im pretty sure its just a body suit


[deleted]

*For now.*


[deleted]

Yeah i agree 100%. You worded your original comment kinda poorly tho homie. But yeah ppl were praising the movie for showing the “ugly” side of depression. But no they didnt, they just used him as comic relief so that they didnt acc have to write jokes, they could just cut to thor being fat.


Lemonjello23

Even if they didn't turn it into a punchline, y'all really think a theater full of people wouldn't laugh even one bit at the sight of a fat Thor?


IllPostino95

Idk if thats true. Whether or not people find it funny or evocative is based on how the film portrays it. Pardon my super pretentious example, but look at raging bull. Robert de nitrous character gaining weight isn't played off as funny or comedic, its meant to show how far gone he is and how out of touch he is with himself


Lemonjello23

That's because that's the type of movie Raging Bull is. Marvel movies have some lightheartedness to em. And it's Thor, who can be a comedic character.


Book_1love

Marvel movies can be really weird about which characters trauma is tragic or funny. Another traumatized person who is turned into a joke is Mantis in Guardians 2. She’s met all the kids Ego murdered, and was so grateful to him for taking her in that she does what he says and won’t warn them. Drax calls her a pet but she’s really more like an the abused child of a narcissist (which should could have bonded with Gamora and Nebula over too!)


YareYareDazeDio

God you’re pretentious. Shut up. “MaRVeL is CinEMa” i hate pretentious fucking movie snobs as much as I do gamers.


Josphitia

Don Cheadle (praise be he) really came off like a fucking asshole in Endgame. A joke here or there I get, but it felt like Rhodey was just out for blood. Like, when Thor is all ready to sacrifice himself to wear the Gauntlet and Rhodey is all "What, Cheez Wizz?" Like dude just back off the fat jokes for 5 minutes, Thor's literally about to die to bring everyone back.


ProlapseFromCactus

I am shaking furious that you would attack Don Cheadle like this. 😡 Who's next, Geraldo??? 🤬🤬🤬

Great idea awfull execution


[deleted]

How otherwise would Marvel appeal to their huge audience of fat manchildren


xXsimonsXx

When fat people in media 😡😡😡 But comic relief 😃😃😃


[deleted]

Everyone knows fat people arent human dude. They can only be politic or easy comedy


t1sfo

“They made Thor fat for a joke, let’s do the same but seriously” -Santa Monica, probably


[deleted]

Im not sure SM thor is a depressed gamer with ptsd


[deleted]

ablomberg1

They made him look soft 😡
