#Thor #LoveAndThunder #whatsnext
Thor Love and Thunder is a fun space adventure, an emotional love story, and yet another mighty story for the god of thunder.
There is so much to say about this movie, and trust me we will talk about it all in future videos. But today we need to talk about what Love and Thunder means for Thor’s future and what happens next?
Thor is now an adoptive father. And being a parent presents a lot of challenges, especially when it's a child that has cosmic powers and can wield a mad-titan-killing axe.
So we need to talk about that, and what’s in store for Thor and Love.
And let’s not forget about the credits scene, Zeus sent his son Hercules to kill Thor. So that clash of the titans is going to happen in Thor 5, possibly leading to an all-out war of the gods.
But we think there might be something far darker and chaotic brewing for Thor and Love. Don’t forget about Gorr’s sword, that blade might unleash a new powerful force that will cover the universe in darkness.
Now before we begin, we just made an extensive video explaining everything about Love and Thunder’s ending.
This is not just a plug, we covered A Lot in that video. And since there is so much to cover in this video, I don’t want to rehash what we discussed in our ending explained. So be sure to check it out for a full explanation about the ending, Love, Hercules, what’s next for Jane and Valhalla.
There is a lot to talk about, so let’s stop wasting time on this intro, and get into the video already!
Ok, first we need to start with Thor and Love.
In the end of the movie, Thor convinces Gorr to abandon his evil plans of killing all the gods. And instead, use Eternity’s genie powers to bring his daughter back to life.
Interesting parallels here to Thanos. The mad titan was so set on his mission that he sacrificed his daughter.
But Gorr proved that deep down he is Batman, and he chose his child over his obsession.
Thor is now the adoptive father of Love. The movie ends with them teaming up, as space heroes. Thor wields Mjolnir once again, while Love swings Strombreaker.
The opening montage of the movie establishes that the one thing missing in Thor’s life is love. He lost so much, and it seemed like he could never find true love. But now he found love, litherly.
He’s a father now. And this is a completely new and uncharted territory for the god of thunder. Not just in the MCU, something like this didn’t actually happen in the comics.
Thor might have lived for over 1,500 years, but this is the first time - that we know of - that he became a father.
And Thor had a very complicated relationship with his own father.
That could be part of the reason why Thor broke up with Jane after the Dark World, he wasn't just afraid of the responsibility of having kids.
He might have been worried that he’s way too much like his own dad, and he was afraid of repeating all of Odin’s parenting mistakes.
And now, Thor adopted the child of his enemy, just like Odin did with Loki.
So some of those fears might bubble back to the surface, because Thor is litherly repeating the past.
And he already gave Love a powerful magical weapon, just like his own dad did.
Yeah good parenting there, dad.
Sure, why not give your kid a titan killing axe that can withstand the power of all six infinity stones.
I don’t know, maybe start with something a little less overkill, like a toy axe. Then slowly transition her into the titan-killing-axe, like maybe when she’s 21. Just saying.
So that’s going to be Thor’s struggle, how does he parent Love. But since Thor is on the path of finding a new purpose, that’s a good sign to his future as a father.
There is also the question of what is Love. [Vision clip], not that type of love, the character Love. Yeah this name won’t get confusing at all.
