But I think it's a red herring. Remind me, how does it end? It has probably been over five years since I’ve seen the first Thor. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why’s it gotta be a competition? Imo what Marvel and GoW were going for are such drastically different characters that it’s not really worth comparing them. I’m gonna wait for GoW2 before I even try, since we don’t even know for certain that the legends match his character. But I hope they do. For the sake of viewing, you should know that the order of Thor’s appearances is Thor 1, Avengers 1, Thor 2, Avengers 2, Ragnorak, Infinity War. The last two seem to be generally considered the best by far. 1 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dad of War's version left such an impact, which like I said before should wait and see the other movies before judging. Thanks for the list of viewing order, I was confused which to watch next tomorrow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Good Doctor Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 I’m not sure if I ever saw that after credit scene, actually. I don’t remember it, at least. Good stuff, and definitely significant. It’ll lead into the first Avengers movie, which you absolutely should watch before Thor 2. 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm guessing the story would be how Yornar turns into a Loki, kills Reval and then runs off to do some big master plan. Power corrupts, absolute power... is a whole lot of fun!

That sounds more like Baldur’s arc actually Kill the king, become “Loki/Lorkhan”, then takes his place to do some master plan.

ColonelKillaBee Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 I don’t see why he would, you already said the regular roscreans drink mead and Baldur’s used to priest types being fanciful because of his mom, plus the priests worship Jhunal so that’s kinda expected of mages anyway, lol. They’re spreading tales of the old gods also in his name, so I don’t see anything to critique. 1 "Even the hardest dick must go flaccid." -Colonelkillabee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine it depends on how it’s approached. Coming off of the whole Talos situation, Nords aren’t going to take kindly to someone telling them to worship differently. Especially if the focus is on conversion and Jhunal. But if the Druids are going around and acting like guest speakers, preaching about Kyne, telling stories, and turning the Nords back to a more Nordic pantheon in that way, I think they’ll be fine. I imagine there will be a few people upset no matter what, but that’s true of anything Edited May 16, 2018 by BTCollins 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonelKillaBee Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Ah I see. Collins pretty well answered that. I suspect the bigger detractors will be in the west but as for Talos thats why Baldur had that conversation with him about Ysmir.

That the Druids proclaim Baldur as the Ash-King throughout the countryside, alongside not trying to spread worship of Ysmir over Talos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonelKillaBee Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 More or less, yes. It was more to think of Talos as Ysmir since he is, so Talos vs Ysmir shouldn’t be a topic of theirs.

To them Talos is a foreign god no better than an elven one, the Imperials influenced the Roscreans somewhat culturally but never made any religious progress. I'm not changing the lore, they're wrong about it but they'll always worship Ysmir in place of Talos.
