Throwback Thorsday Most Memorable Scene: The Revengers vs Hela's Army (Thor: Ragnarok)

I love Thor: Ragnarok it was such an unexpected cinematic adventure from the beginning to the end. And I also love this scene with Heimdall, Korg and The Revengers (Thor, Loki, Valkyrie and Hulk) fighting Hela's army to stop Hela and rescue the Asgardians.

In the first Thor movie, Thor was so arrogant and thought he was all powerful compared with how he doubted himself and his powers in the third movie trying to stop his sister Hela. But once he realized his strength, he was able to draw upon his full powers which was visually stunning. I would have loved to have seen another movie with The Revengers they were an interesting team.

Do you think Thor will appear on the Loki TV Series?

I can't wait to watch the Loki TV series whenever it premieres on Disney+ but I was wondering if you think Thor will appear on a episode (or two)? On the show, I know it won't be the Loki that was slowly on his way to redemption but the one at the height of his rage. Which means that if Thor does appear on the show there probably won't be any brotherly bonding happening between them.

I figure Thor has lost so much that if there is a chance for them to have a reunion and to rebuild their relationship, I think having Thor appear on a episode would be the start to making that happen. Of course it wouldn't happen immediately since this Loki is still angry and vindictive but I hope at some point it does. If not on this TV series then perhaps in the upcoming fourth Thor movie, Thor: Love and Thunder.

Why does Jane Foster have to be Thor to be an Interesting Character?

I love superheroes but I've always been fascinated by characters that don't have any powers such as Lois Lane who continue to go out there and fight to make a difference. Which is why I'm not excited for the upcoming fourth Thor movie Thor: Love and Thunder with Jane Foster becoming Thor. I always felt like not every character needs to have powers to be a hero or to make a difference.

I know there are fans who see Jane and other characters aside from Batman without powers as boring but they are not. One of the things I loved about Jane in the first two Thor movies (Thor and Thor: The Dark World) was that she was smart and passionate and loved her job as a doctor of Astrophysics and not to mention her unapologetic love for science. I feel like Jane is already an amazing and inspiring character and doesn't need to be Thor to be interesting.

I don't understand this need for Marvel to constantly give Jane superpowers. First, she was Thor in the comic books and now in a new series she has become Valkyrie. What's wrong with her being a normal person, it's been shown countless times that ordinary people can do extraordinary things. So why does Marvel keep pushing for Jane to be a super powered hero?

Even though I'm disappointed that Jane will take on the mantle of Thor, I'm still going to see the movie because I am a huge Thor fan. I'm interested to see what Thor: Love and Thunder will be about.

In Thor: Ragnarok, Do You Believe Jane Foster Broke Up with Thor?


I don't think it surprised anyone when it was revealed in Thor: Ragnarok that Dr. Jane Foster and Thor were no longer together. Those two had absolutely zero romantic chemistry and their relationship ending was the best thing that could have happened to them.

As much as I like the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) Thor and Jane Foster, I was not disappointed that they were over. There was no way that lackluster romance could have progressed and having them break up was a good way to give both characters a fresh start.

Prior to Thor: Ragnarok being released, it was announced that Jane wasn't going to appear in the movie and after watching it, I couldn't imagine any where her character could have been featured in it anyway. Her chapter in Thor's life had ended and I was okay with that because I see this version of Jane continuing to focus on her work as an astrophysicist where she was probably starting to find herself too busy to focus on her relationship with Thor. While Thor was most likely preoccupied with trying to stop the visions he was having about Ragnarok destroying Asgard leaving little time to focus on their relationship.

This was a couple most likely heading in two different directions instead of growing together. Which is why I do believe Jane would have broken up with him because as an analytical person, I believe she came to the decision that it was better for their relationship to end instead of it being dragged out. She knew that it was not working for either of them and made the decision to end it.

What do you think, would Jane have broken up with Thor in Thor: Ragnarok?

Thorsday Art of the Day: Thor, Rocket and Groot (Avengers: Infinity War)

Out of all the characters in the MCU I think Thor has suffered the most and lost the most. His family, his friends and his home are all gone. I know there are still some survivors from the Thanos attack out there but I wonder how will he find them so they can rebuild. As of now, Thor is a King without a kingdom.

Sif is such an underrated character and it's annoying that Marvel has yet to give her an ongoing comic book series.

Thor: Raganorak: Thor Poster

I honestly can't wait to see Thor: Raganorak and this poster of the Mighty Thor is awesome. I was trying to tamper down my enthusiasm for this movie but then I thought why should I. I think it's okay to be excited about stuff, I feel like far too many people downplay their feelings as to not appear as if they're a fangirl/boy which I don't think there is anything wrong with.

Anyway, totally love this poster, Thor looks great.

New Book Purchase: Sif: Even Dragons Have Their Endings

Since it's Thorsday, I can't think of a better day to post my recent new book, Sif: Even Dragons Have Their Endings. I'm so glad that Sif has this book (love the cover), she is so underappreciated. I'm still waiting for Marvel to give her an ongoing comic book series, like that will happen anytime soon.

The first book Thor: Dueling with Giants in this three book series was so good that I couldn't wait to read this second one. And not only because Sif is the main character but because first book was very well-written and the characters so well researched that I can't wait to see what author does with Sif's story.


Book: Sif: Even Dragons Have Their Endings (Tales of Asgard Trilogy book 2) by Keith R.A. DeCandido

Description:

In the action-packed Sif: Even Dragons Have Their Endings, Marvel's Tales of Asgard trilogy tells of the adventures of another of the realm's greatest warriors.

When the nearby village of Flodbjerge is terrorized by a dragon, one of its citizens races to Asgard seeking the help of Thor. But with the God of Thunder incapacitated following a battle, it is Sif who must answer the call -- much to the villager's dismay. Despite being one of Asgard's most skilled fighters, Sif is used to being doubted.

She's also used to overcoming those doubts.

There's a reason Sif is known as the Unstoppable. But both her reputation and her life are on the line as she faces the fearsome dragon, Oter. The face-off won't be straightforward either -- the winged beast has a secret that Sif will have to unravel in order to defeat him before the village and its people go up in flames.

Throwback Thorsday: A Clip from Thor: The Dark World (video)


Thor: The Dark World   (Release Date: November 8, 2013)

How could I not post this for Throwback Thursday (or is it Thorsday). This clip features a great scene with Heimdall taking down one of the Dark Elves' ship. Too bad it was only one of the smaller ships.
