THOR RAGNAROK. HOLY S#!T!!
BY Corey Floyd
Okay guys! Lets not play around. The new Thor trailer dropped and it was awesome. I mean Justice what comes out when? I don’t care but I know come November I looking for three things Thanksgiving , Thor , and maybe some family time. In this almost 2 minute trailer we have a lot thrown at us so let me fill you in on what I can.
Now the woman who destroyed Mjolnir in the trailer is Hela ruler of the underworld or Asgard. She is being played be Cate Blanchett (Kaa from Jungle Book, Galadriel LOTR saga). This will be a new experience for the 2 time academy awards winning actress playing a God and the destroyer of Mjolnir can't wait to see what they have planned for her.
Also seen in the Trailer is the Infamous Valkyrie. An Asgardian warrior in charge of taking souls of great warriors to Valhalla. She is being played by Tessa Thompson. Tessa who has had a rollercoaster of a career dealing with doing a good job on failing projects. Lately she has been on the right side of things. With underdog cult hit “Dear white people “ and her portrayal of Charlotte Hale in Westworld I am certain she will be a great addition to the team. Also I hope they plan on keeping her around since she was a Avenger as well.
Of all the places I’ve seen him I had no words when I saw Jeff Goldblum in the trailer. For those who have no idea who he is please watch The Fly, Jurassic Park 1 & 2 , Independence Day and it sequel. He has been a pivotal actor in the sci fi genre for his whole career. It is only fitting that he bring his energy and wit to the sinister character of the Grandmaster. A evil alien Lord that kidnaps people for his own amusement. Karl Urban who has made us laugh as Hank McCoy in the Star Trek and made us respect the law as Judge Dredd crashes in this movie as the mohawk rocking machine gun blazing Executioner. Urban is a cinematic chameleon he has not let me down yet.
Of course all of favorite cast members are returning as well. Loki by the great Tom Hiddleston, Idris Elba as Heimdall but to be honest he look like Bishop from X-men days of future past, and Sir Anthony Hopkins as Odin. Do I know what the movie is about? Not really but it take place During the Civil War back on earth. It looks like adaptations of Thor’s Ragnarok story and Planet Hulk’s comic story. How they will blend together for this movie? I honestly don’t know but it will be good . Does it tie into the upcoming Infinity war? Oh yeah! Do you think it will be better than Justice League? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7MGUNV8MxU I’m sorry what League? I’m not trying to bash on DC but they make it too easy. But seriously I’m glad they are not coming out at the same time. I mean come on. World War HULK!!!??? Just take my money.
