Albert Plays and I remember Magni and Modi dying well before Ragnorock by an angry Greek.

Wow thanks for the spoilers anushole

I’m loving Norse mythology too. Is it possible that after Ragnarok, Magni becomes the Allfather? Since he is the god of strength...and stronger than Thor.

@@blefyplayswowable he said spoilers tho

Just got the platinum and yep, agree with everything you said.

@@blefyplayswowable he gave a spoiler alert, dude.

He kills Magni and Modi who were supposed to survive Ragnarok

HeroesIQ my thoughts exactly

Right?! I mean think about all the great films about each and every god could get? Wheres Joss Whedon when you really need him?

HeroesIQ the previous thor movies weren't too well perceived

Probably too expensive. Ragnarok is basically a massive 120 minute battle scene with special effects in every frame.

No because films about gods aren't good, films need to be about characters and smaller scale stories, not world ending north mythology

True great book, but I thought he said Fenrir will eat the moon

I UNDERSTOOD THAT FLEA REFERENCE!!!

LORD HUMUNGUS I bet he's wearing a Jordan 360 AIR 420 High Jump shoes. Might as well say he's fimbulvinter 'cause he's cool as the winds of hel.

If you think the SHOE was impressive, wait till you see the LINGERIE OF THE GODS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Christian conquest. Upon the 'liberation' of Nordic nations, the Christian authorities destroyed documentations of the Nordic religion. Now, mere fragments remain of the Norse religion.

Is This Rain? Not just the Norse, this goes for the Slavic , Celtic , and Germanic peoples as well. The old ways have been all but erased.

It was more politically favourable. During the Middle Ages the various nordic kings were slowly starting to turn their realms into centralised kingdoms instead of loose federations of small territories with their own lords. Christianity was a good tool for that because 1) it came with an established and orderly hierarchy of literate clergymen who could be used to run the administration necessary for that process and 2) christianity had a very strong ideological undercurrent of sacred kingship. Before this kings, while they often had an important role in religious ceremonies, were purely worldly rulers. The closest they got to any supernatural aura was mythical descent from a god. But if they converted their people to christianity and convinced them that they were sacred rulers, appointed by god, like the Frankish kings, that massively increases their authority and prestige. Plus, when their realms started to become centralised states, they needed to start some more extensive foreign policies. If they wanted their kingdoms to survive and not be isolated outsiders free for the taking in the eyes of the south, they had to integrate themselves in the system of christian states. And quite obviously, aside from adopting its wider cultural attributes, that required conversion to christianity. After all what good, christian ruler would establish marriage ties or an alliance with a kingdom of godless pagans.

Is this Rain?, Norse was mainly an undocumented religion, it was almost purely word of mouth

xinic5 It was also the muslim poet Firdausi that wrote the Persian Book of Kings, which is essentially a compilation of stories from Zoroastrian mythology.

I think you find this sounding suspiciously christian because it is. The two humans who survive in Norse mythology is called Lif and Lifthrasir and Balder is explicitly not the ruling god of the new world, this world is ruled by a god whose name is yet to be learned. The significance of Balder returning isn't that he returns to rule but that he returns having made peace with Hoder. Balder and Hoder was in the original stories bitter archenemies and fought a for a very long time due to their mutual love for the princess Nanna, this war between the two is actually a very major arc and a catalyst for a lot of the events in the myth. If you think I'm making this up then here you go: The original story of Balder's death: sacred-texts.com/neu/saxo/saxo03.htm

rattis Ask also means ashes fyi

You are confusing Ask and Embla with Liv and Livtrasir (Liv is the woman). The former were the first humans, the latter the surviving ones.

Ask means "Ash tree" not simply "ash". So it has nothing to do with "ashes to ashes." Embla either means "Elm tree" or "Vine."

+Thor Sneppen Yes and no. First of all, we do not realy know how old the 'asatro' is. Secondly, we may not be 100% sure if nordic pagans believed the wolrd to be cyclic in nature, but it is by far the most believable interpretation. After all, every non-christian culture view time that way.

None as he is not part of Norse Mythology but they do have giants

Vicky Loach r/woooosh

BatGuy500 nowere

JHangman /r/whoosh

Hulk is everywhere

+jellydoughnut But Loki appears in the Infinity War trailer, though.

Everyone who have read Norse myth knows that. XD

Yeah but Thor dies in the mythology as well and will still be in the MCU after Thor:Ragnarok

+Paladin Dance Judging by the Infinity War trailer, something bad will happen to Thor at the end of the Ragnarok movie. But he will still be alive, though.

Hank Pym theory: Thor defeats Hela, but destroys the Bifrost (again), then met the Guardians

Vincent Killion yes! 😂

CHAOS IS A LADDER... Unless you die before you start climbing it

Sofia Silva meeee

Man, I gotta read that. I haven't even finished the Kane Chronicles yet.

tbh I love rick riordan but Magnus Chase is a bit disappointing since his voice is exactly like Percy Jackson. Still enjoy the series but ''tis not unique at all

Himani Yadav I too enjoy all those books, but I do agree on one part. The Magnus Chase series is lacking in terms to Myth. The Original Greek ones had tons of creatures, objects, and gods from Greek myth show up all over the place. In the Norse ones, we havn't seen that much.

Sofia Silva _thanks Rick Riordon_

According to Norse mythology, everything dies. Except two humans who hid in the world tree. They have a long chain of children, beginning a new time and era.

Stormsurge Maybe it's happened time and time again, but with different people doing different things. Maybe a long, long, time ago, Tròndur threw a dart made of thistles at Bordr, and then two giant cats ate the sun and the moon. I don't even believe in Norse mythology at all, but it's so cool :p

And why does that sound like Adam and Eve? Hmmm.... As said, maybe it has already happened?

I like your comment. But I can't give you a like , becouse of your avatar, filthy space commy.

Eolas Nord mythology was before Christianity

shedmeraked korn in Danish just means grain, I think it's the same for English where maize was renamed corn

shedmeraked Corn in Germanic speaking countries just refers to the most common cereal/grain in the region. In Scotland it was oats, England wheat, of the Nordic realms most likely wheat.

Maybe it is, but there is also evidence of vikings arriving in the americas well before Colombus.

By corn, they mean wheat

A mistranslation no doubt.

Seasons change, Ragnarok is real. Its symbolic

Yes dark souls is inspired by Norse mythology in more than 1 way

Alicia Marian We need more Scottish folk metal, bagpipes go so surprisingly well with metal

Nope thor

SuiCaedere I'm still hoping so much for more Andean myths!

SuiCaedere Oh I hope they do that! I know very little about South American myths. I have a hard time even remembering the difference between Mayan and Incan

Also R.I.P shoe. One shoe = one bit of leather repaired.

D S it makes me so happy to see Magnus Chase fans

D S tbh, Magnus chase has been a mess ever since they force fitted the gender fluid person inside. And the fact that Sam is a Muslim just feels so out of place(I have nothing against Muslims, it's just the implementation of that idea in the story)

I agree about Sam, that doesn't really fit in with the story!

I just read book one and it was amazing! I'm not gonna read anymore because I feel like the new ones are a bit to PC and ruin the vibe of the story ..

LifeWithStyle ikr!! And just Rick Riordan fans in general

Aki Vector and how is that a bad thing? being proud of your heritage / history is only shamefully if you make it so. (not many nazi in Norway BTW, biggest national socialist group is nord front which is not nazi)

Norzis?

Not just in Norway, unfortunately.

Really weird for you to have that opinion, it is mostly something i hear from Americans. Living in a Nordic country i know quite a lot people who wear jewelery and other items with Norse symbols, and have never heard of them, nor heard second or third hand accounts of anyone, haven been taken for a nazi. Even though some of the extreme right have some crazy fetish for this stuff..

Mehedi Amin just thought same thing just watched that episode in season 4 love Ragnar and Vikings story's

I believe in Vikings history of the gods

Korn is nordic for wheat or grain I think

Ark joke

Korn just means "grain"

Corn (the English word) originally meant grain. Or maybe, I think, just the kind of grain closest and most easily accessible. In the US that meant it was almost universally maize until the wheat production kicked up, so, you know. Corn came to mean only maize. ...I guess crash course read older documents or maybe British documents in this case (or used google translate?) and didn't think more of it.

Korn, is a grain in Swedish that in English is called Barley. But it has had a name on B in the past as well, well originally Korn just meant grain, but after a while the grain known as Bjugg started to be called Korn instead.
