Before I go i couldn't leave you without giving a few more updates on some of our
most anticipated upcoming films in january we'll begin filming thor love and thunder
with director taika watiti and chris hemsworth natalie portman and tessa thompson returning
and i'm pleased to confirm that academy award-winning actor christian bale is
playing the villain gorr the god butcher thor love and thunder releases in theaters on may 6 2022.
Happy New Year everyone this is going to be my new marvel thor 4 video obviously they
dropped that teaser back during the big kevin feige presentation they also made some special
announcements in the past couple of weeks it'll also be crossing over with the loki episodes
which we're gonna see in may i will be doing episode videos for all that stuff including the
one division episodes that start next week so be sure to subscribe to get all those if you're brand
new to my channel we're also doing a giveaway for disney plus subscriptions all you have to
do to enter is just be a subscriber and leave all your predictions for thor 4 on the video
taikawati released a whole bunch of teasers an early concept art talking about the story
during 2020 in the lockdown period so i'll include some of that in the video too there
was even the funny iron man scene that he quote unquote accidentally leaked but that was meant
to be a big joke iron man himself is not in the movie there was just a joke page that he
left in frame during the live stream just enough for people to see what was on the page and during
the script there was a bunch of really terrible dialogue about thor running into a version of
iron man seeing that he had survived the snap but obviously that was just meant to be a joke iron
man is still supposed to be dead after the end of avengers end game most of this video and the
biggest thing obviously is christian bale being confirmed as gorr the god butcher i'm so happy
that they confirmed my big theory because gorr is a really cool character and he's one of the few
marvel villains that's a big enough threat to thor now that he's gotten all these big
upgrades thor has been confirmed as a legit god in the mcu he got his big storm breaker upgrade and
he's in the middle of using star-lord's bowflex to lose all that weight like you've seen chris
hemsworth posting all those workout videos taika batidi confirmed that we would not be doing fat
thor anymore in the thor movies he's going to go back to being the swoll version of thor that you
would expect to see but the other big change that kevin feige announced that because they shuffled
some of the marvel phase 4 movies that also means that they changed some of the post-credits scenes
so that it all makes sense all the post-credit scenes the tease future films work in the right
order now so i will talk about some of the post-credits scene changes during the video too
but just to talk about the biggest stuff first obviously christian bale gorr the god butcher
if you haven't been reading the comics the gorr storyline is all jason aaron the reason why that's
important for the other stuff that they're doing with the thor 4 movie the jane foster version
of thor is because jason aaron also wrote the mighty thor story line with jane foster's thor
but the whole thing with gorr is that he basically goes around the marvel universe killing everyone
that's a god not just the thor characters but anyone who can claim any sort of godhood on any
level in the mcu the reason why gorr hates gods so much is because he used to worship them he was a
very devout person he prayed for deliverance from suffering and plight he feels like they abandoned
him because his family died he's out for revenge so he blames all the marvel gods for being lazy
not doing their jobs protecting their subjects saying they don't care about us the gods don't
care about us so they should all die so in the mcu during avengers infinity war when thanos snaps the
infinity gauntlet killing half of all life gorr did not get snapped he survived during that five
year time span but his family did get snapped he feels like thor the other mcu gods should have
protected them from thanos in the snap they got into this a little bit with e tree and the dwarves
on nivel delir when he went to get stormbreaker built peter dinklage's character e tree said that
thor was supposed to protect them from thanos you were supposed to protect us they were attacked by
thanos when he forced them to create the infinity gauntlet when loki was still pretending to be
odin when thor was on a walkabout and as we learned loki really didn't do anything as king
of asgard he just sat around building statues of himself writing those bad plays about his life
so that's why gorr wants to kill thor he blames him for not rescuing them remember all the memes
after avengers infinity war thor should have gone for the head that's why gorr wants to get him then
after the snap when he should have been helping his people rebuild helping the other people of the
universe the way the other gods should have thor completely abandoned his post like you see him
sitting there getting super fat playing fortnite with corrigan meek the only thing he did during
that period was just sass noob bastard and drink a whole lot of beer then after avengers end game
when they snap everyone back thor continues to shirk his responsibilities as a legit god in the
mcu he doesn't want to be king of asgard so he just screws off with the guardians of the galaxy
for fun and adventure so that's why gorr hates all marvel gods and he's basically going around
at the beginning of thor 4 around the universe killing anyone that can claim any sort of godhood
even the lesser gods even the major gods that's why it's so relevant that the guardians of the
galaxy are a big part of the movie they're much bigger part than i would have expected before
and most of the guardians are showing up now confirmed to be showing up on set because
they're filming right now you may have seen the video of chris pratt and tom holland spoiling
his involvement in the movie it was totally hilarious i've got um guardians coming up
next year and i've got thor i'm gonna go be in thor in australia so i'll be
traveling in australia in about a week wait a minute did you say you're gonna be in thor
that's so crazy did it in my life i feel like no one knew that bro
no they knew that they knew that i think they knew that no they knew that if they didn't they know
[ __ ] well they know now chris pratt doing his best to join the spoiler bros tom holland and mark
buffalo star-lord is technically also a god in the marvel universe more of a demigod actually because
he's half god the son of ego the living planet who literally called himself a god with a little g
even though he lost his powers when ego supposedly died and he's not as powerful when he's not
touching ego's surface gorr wouldn't care about any of those qualifiers he just said you're a god
you just made my list so you have to imagine peter quill trying to dance his way out of that fight
and for those of you that are really hyped up about the necrosword tycho batidi said that they
had actually already borrowed some aspects of gorr the god butcher's necrosword when they created the
hella character in thor ragnarok this is the hela's ability to manifest all those weapons
the blaze that just come out of nowhere the giant spikes at the end of the movie when she's fighting
certain those were inspired visually by the look and the feel of gorr's necrosword and
i know because of the lore behind the necrosword and what marvel did with that recently during the
donny kate's comics run in all the spider-man 3 spider-verse multiverse easter eggs it seems
like we're getting in the confirmed tom holland then a movie crossover that they're building up
to in the future a lot of you are now asking if there's going to be some sort of venom easter eggs
in their interpretation of gorr in the necrosword because in the marvel universe now the necrosword
is basically the primal symbiote it's like a supercharged version of the venom symbiote
i think at some point eventually sony would love to be able to build up to a null storyline
with the primal symbiotes inside the venom spinoff movies but the thing is is that the null character
just relative to venom is kind of like a thanos infinity gauntlet level storyline so they can't
just go straight to that right away there's still so much other story that they have to do first
and most of what kevin feige has said about venom mcu crossover stuff is that it'll be tom
holland's spider-man going to the venom movie not venom coming to the mcu so just depending on how
they interpret gorr's necrosword during the movie we'll see if there are any kind of smaller venom
easter eggs but obviously i'm not expecting venom to show up anywhere during the movie
remember the town tonsburg where new asgard is built that's the same town from the flashback at
the beginning of the first thor movie where they were fighting the frost giants it's also the town
where odin hid the tesseract at the beginning of the first captain america movie it's like odin's
favorite town marvel wrote thor into the beowulf epic poem and inside that town tonsburg norway in
ancient times the grendel creature attacks within the marvel universe they revealed that the grendel
creature was just the primal symbiote inhabiting other creatures other people so it was basically
thor versus a version of venom in ancient history but because the movie is probably only going to be
like two and a half hours long i'm only expecting thor for to do a cliff's notes version of any
kind of big history like that in obviously gorr's history as well the reason why the gorr story is
connected to what's happening in the mighty thor storyline is because of all the idea of multiple
versions of thor during the gorr storyline you have the main version of thor teaming up
with other versions of himself to defeat him just because he's not enough by himself to defeat gorr
the big difference though is that it's actually other versions of himself from other parts of the
timeline not from alternate universes in the way the mcu is treating time travel in the multiverse
is they're all kind of lumping it together using the quantum realm so time travel alternate
timelines alternate realities alternate dimensions all kind of the same thing within the mcu the loki
series that we're going to be getting episodes for in may after the black widow movie drops is going
to flesh out more mcu time travel in the mechanics of these alternate timelines alternate realities
the one division episodes which we're going to be getting really really soon is going to be the
beginning of the multiverse storyline in marvel phase 4 scarlet witch sort of setting things off
in a big way but that series doesn't really get into time travel that's more just about alternate
realities the reason why after avengers end game gorr is like the next big major marvel villain
next thanos level threat is because his grand plan is to build a bomb that will kill all marvel
gods all across the mcu all at the same time all across time and space so it's like a version of
thanos snapping the infinity gauntlet killing a selected half of all life except this time he's
only killing the gods but just talking about some of the marvel phase 4 post credit scenes
because thor 4 is coming out right after doctor strange 2 i would expect a doctor strange 2 post
credit scene with the thor characters setting at the beginning of that movie they did the exact
same thing with the first doctor strange movie so maybe they'll just have another funny moment
like that and because this version of loki is also going to be in thor 4 i would also expect a loki
post credit scene at the end of that series helping set up the beginning of thor 4 as well
there was also a really big announcement about the future of the loki series this morning so
that's probably going to be my next video i'll try to post that by later tonight if i can work
fast enough and also the very first episode of marvel legends is dropping i believe at
midnight so i will do a video for that tomorrow that's going to be sort of a prequel to the one
division episodes those will also start next week as well so just make sure you have alerts turned
on for my channel so you don't miss any of those videos and i'll name a giveaway winner when i post
that new loki video everyone click here for that really big one division episode 1 scene in the
x-men stuff that they just posted and click here for that really big deadpool 3 ryan reynolds video
that he just posted as well thank you so much for watching everyone stay safe and happy new year!
