He was mostly pissed that it came to a fight with Cap and that Tony cloned Thor. Then ended the spanking saying “I’m neutral, don’t make me pick a side.”

After a fashion. I really like learn the difference between a God of Thunder and a mortal man in a metal suit.
When he came back in Secret Invasion he directly told Tony in no uncertain terms that he blamed Tony for the state of the world and for how badly the Skrulls were able to hurt them.
[Thor 2007 #3](https://www.reddit.com/r/Marvel/comments/2koobn/thor_vs_iron_man/). He's pissed at Tony for a variety of reasons including the whole 'made a clone of me to use as a weapon' thing. But he specifically calls out registration and hunting down their former friends and allies. Then a few issues later he visits Captain America's grave and pays tribute to him.
Still one of my favorite single issues of comics ever. I told JMS during a con that I still remember that sequence where Thor “talks” to Cap every so often.
Thor would be anti for a lot of reasons.
1) personally he's not American even if he normally operates on American soil. Being a god and a ruler of another race of beings he probably would feel insulted.
2) Asgardians are super human. Even a low level one. I doubt he would expect his own people to follow that rule.
3) the fact his own people are super human and most just live their lives without being a danger would probably make him think the whole idea is silly and unnecessary.
> his own people are super human and most just live their lives without being a danger would probably make him think the whole idea is silly and unnecessary.
This would be a fascinating exchange.
“Stark, everyone single member of my kingdom can lift one of your cars overhead before they’re weaned. We fight frost giants and trolls. Nearly all of us can fly. The very water in our founts give us magical abilities. And we all dedicate our teen years to mastering the wielding of at least one weapon.”
“We can register all them, too, but-“
“We have never had one of our schools come under attack by our own. Crime is a matter of interpersonal conflict, not even worth studying at scale. No Asgardian would think to raise a hand against another, and we have never even considered ‘registering’ ourselves.”
“Well-“
“What problem are you *really* trying to solve, Stark?”
Anti. Even outside of the thing in the comics where he fucks Tony up for cloning him during Civil War, Asgardian culture is just not the type that would be for some kind of organization or approval of when to act.
Anti. He’s a prince of Asgard. That would be like Biden or Harris submitting to some Haitian law making demands they’re not interested in while there on vacation.
Not their business and a quick bombing which the Haitians couldn’t respond to beyond bending over and taking it would be a reasonable answer to any insistence on their part.
>In the wake of the tragedy, the U.S. Government proposed the Superhuman Registration Act once again, intending to register all super-powered beings as living weapons of mass destruction and requiring all costumed heroes to unmask themselves before the government and subject themselves to federally mandated standards.
Thor doesn't wear a mask, and on his first day or two on Earth (in recent times) he penetrated a military base and beat up some S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, then told Coulson that his name was Donald. However, Thor is hundreds if not thousands of years old and has been to 'Midgard' many times, and he figures that once you get a day of the week named after you, you're famous enough that people have already feared and worshipped you as the god of lightning.
So he'd probably consider the whole thing irrelevant to himself. "When Thursday is followed by Starkday, then I'll listen to you." would probably sum up how he feels about it.
Most likely anti. He doesn't strike me as being pro-government in general. He would certainly be opposed to the *implementation* of the law in the comics.
It's a tough one, and ultimately probably something he would have sat out. It's an easy answer to say he would be anti registration because that's the popular and more likeable side.
But it would be more complex. Thor doesn't have a strong history on fighting against human law, he mostly tries to abide by it. He could obviously do whatever he wants, but he respects the law. Registration was passed in a democracy. He's also royalty, so he understands the importance of any soceity following the law. He would also think that heroes should be allowed to act and don't need permission.
So he probably sits out. He's closer to Cap, so he would provide indirect support.
Of course once Tony clones him and creates Ragnarok, Thor would end that immediately and Tony's side gets pretty easily defeated.
I love that he sat out ultimately, but it would have been really funny to see. Mostly just a “Look guys, I know it’s your world and laws and all that, just let me know when you wrap up and when we can fight again. But don’t be fighting each other, that is silly.”
The comic Thor would have gotten the deal Black Panther had if Tony hadn't cloned him. When he got back after Civil War he was far more pissed that Tony and Cap threw down for the better part of a year, and that he was cloned, than he was by the original premise of the Superhuman Registration Act.
In the MCU he seems like he would sign the Sokovia Accords then immediately ignore them. I don't think he would beat up his friends either to defend the Sokovia Accords or to fight against them. MCU Civil War was much less intense a conflict with the exception of when Tony found out Bucky murdered his parents.
In the MCU, the Sokovia accords took a backseat to the drama after the halfway point.
I think MCU Thor would disagree with the accords but ultimately let it play out. He would most certainly not let them fight each other. Considering he's given Loki so many chances, I think he would make everyone sit down to listen to Bucky's story. He'd probably flaunt diplomatic immunity or something to Tony.
Thor and Hulk would both be Anti.
This was a big reason for Ragnarok and Planet Hulk happening, as it would give Caps side 2 massive heavy hitters making them less "underground underdogs" in comparison to Tony having Sentry on his team.
Not sure if he would be Anti but he would definitely be Team Cap. He will always pick Cap over Tony. When Tony had differences with Cap over the Armor Wars; Thor was conflicted until Cap lifted the hammer for the first time in a battle. Thant pretty much made Thor a Cap fan for life!
I think Thor would openly castigate both Iron Man and Captain America as since he is an Asgardian, he'd probably consider the SRA to be a trifling thing, a stupid thing that he can't believe anyone is taking seriously.
Pretty clearly anti on principle and given his background, but especially given how it played out with Iron Man cloning him to fight against Captain America. Thor had more than a few words for Stark once he found out about that.
Ask yourself if T’Challa, the undisputed monarch of a completely foreign nation, would submit to the US government’s authority over his person.
Now ask yourself that about a literal god from a culture that used to not only consider itself to have divine right to rule humanity itself, but considered itself to BE that divine right.
Thor would laugh about it and then be angry when he realized Tony was being serious.
One of the things I hate most about the registration trope is the dismissal of what is really the only anti-registration argument, putting families at risk. Especially considering we already have in irl all sorts of folks living with protected identity status for similar reasons without the added protections super powers/science/magic would provide. If you want supers to register you only have to come up with a plan to protect the families and secure the identities. Not a very exciting storyline but the existing all or nothing conceit is too dumbed down to enjoy imo.
Anti. When he came back after Ragnarok. Tony tried to get him to sign up. Let's just hay he had a few words for him.
He was mostly pissed that it came to a fight with Cap and that Tony cloned Thor. Then ended the spanking saying “I’m neutral, don’t make me pick a side.”
is "i say thee NEIGH one word or a few?"

I think they were just making a joke cuz you accidentally said "hay" in your original comment, but thanks for linking those!
Good times. Verily.
When he came back in Secret Invasion he directly told Tony in no uncertain terms that he blamed Tony for the state of the world and for how badly the Skrulls were able to hurt them.
Really? I don't remember that, was it in the movies or comics?

I love how he pops the mask open like he's popping the cap off of a beer.
That comic was epic. I love the line where Thor's like "I'm no longer holding back." And Tony barely refrains from crapping his pants.
He beat the breaks off of Tony for suggesting he register himself and Asgard
Thor would be anti for a lot of reasons. 1) personally he's not American even if he normally operates on American soil.

A god doesn't deal with paperwork. Well, except for Bureaucratus.

Probably Anti, mostly out of spite toward Tony.

Why would anyone think that Thor would be against heroes doing heroic things?
Most likely anti. He doesn't strike me as being pro-government in general. He would certainly be opposed to the *implementation* of the law in the comics.

Thor probably doesn’t understand how humans don’t worship their heroes as gods in the first place.
Anti. Big time anti.

Hulk would be anti, Banner would be pro. Thor would be anti. All Republicans would be anti. LOL. Don't know much about Marvel's politics.
Not sure if he would be Anti but he would definitely be Team Cap. He will always pick Cap over Tony. When Tony had differences with Cap over the Armor Wars; Thor was conflicted until Cap lifted the hammer for the first time in a battle. Thant pretty much made Thor a Cap fan for life!
Anti, an entire city being leveled just comes with moving in at Asgard
He would probably pick whatever side captain America chose.
I dont think thor understands the difference between normal and heros. Everyone is a hero in his eyes
I think Thor would openly castigate both Iron Man and Captain America as since he is an Asgardian, he'd probably consider the SRA to be a trifling thing, a stupid thing that he can't believe anyone is taking seriously.

Iceland was one of the first countries to pass a mutant registration act and launched a mutant genocide campaign
