But what about the historically accurate version?
Being from a Nordic country, I could never get into the Thor movies due to how ridiculous everything about the fake lore was.
Which wouldn't be a problem except they're the only ones with the always brilliant Kat Dennings in them 😭
The ( . )( . ) always brilliant, Kat Dennings.
Not what I meant but sure, doesn't hurt either 😄
You ever play God of War Ragnarok?
Yeah, but didn't get very far before I got frustrated by all the puzzles and quit.
The puzzles are like some of the worst shit in GoW to me. However, everyone says you can't remove it because it's SO apart of the game. I just really enjoyed their take on Nordic mythology.
I don't even remember the first 3 games having puzzles unless you count the QTEs as puzzles. It was pure action.
But also: Why does Odin sound like he's from New York?
lol ... yeah the first three were pure action to me ... I mean, unless you count putting that woman to hold the wheel to keep the gate open which then kills her a puzzle too ....
But also: Why does Odin sound like he’s from New York?
lol I mean there's no arguing that, but I fucking love that actor ... but I definitely can't counter what you said 🤣
I agree with you COMPLETELY on both counts 😁🫶🏼
Thor does briefly start getting more like Norse Thor in Avengers Infinity War. Then he shortly becomes a hopeless alcoholic and mellows out to Disney Thor again.
What about Thor according to Douglas Adams?
How about Terry Pratchett?
Do you mean Blind Io in Discworld or does Thor show up in another of Sir Pterry's books? Blind Io is more a compilation of multiple Roundworld gods.
Still reading his books, so I dunno about Thor in the TP universe :D
Does he appear in a discworld related book?
How about Adventures in Babysitting?
Pretty wild that same actor also played Private Pyle in Full Metal Jacket and the bug alien in Men In Black
That is pretty wild! I would have never even suspected!
Give him the Blood Eagle!
They're very fashionable these days
He’s chilled out in the modern age 🤷♂️
