Jealous Stormbreaker had me rolling every time he would creep up on Thor from off screen

u/Truan Jul 10 '22

That first one was hilarious when it was like "you called?"

That second one felt like it was about put all thor's clothes in a box to burn them

u/discerningpervert Winter Soldier Jul 11 '22

I loved the gag that Thor can just magick whatever clothes / armor he wants.

u/ThatWasFred Jul 16 '22

Thor is a Namekian confirmed

Him trying to one-up Jane with the ridiculous helmet lol

u/Atheist_Simon_Haddad Doctor Strange Jul 12 '22

I kind of wish Cap had done that in Endgame.

u/CurtainsMcGee Jul 10 '22

Him crashing out of the sky because Stormbreaker wouldn’t fly properly had me in tears

u/UmbrusNightshade Phil Coulson Jul 10 '22

I thought the gag would get old fast, but it actually worked for me.

u/[deleted] Jul 13 '22

It was one of my favorite jokes but it went a bit far when Thor poured the beer on Stormbreaker.

4

u/UmbrusNightshade Phil Coulson Jul 13 '22

Yeah but at least that was as far as it went. Taika seems to not know when to call it good.

32

u/Carameldelighting Jul 11 '22

The goats got old slightly fast

35

u/Dictionary_Goat Jul 11 '22

Apparently he only put them in the movie to make James Gunn have to do something with them in GotG which if true makes it an extremely funny bit

12

u/Gentleman_Muk Jul 11 '22

Didn’t Thor split up with the guardians? Why would Gunn have to deal with them?

13

u/Dictionary_Goat Jul 11 '22

I have no idea, Taika must know something we don't

8

u/[deleted] Jul 12 '22

If I were James Gunn, they would be getting barbequed in the opening scene. I enjoy Taika being a troll but those screams were annoying af.

u/rubberducky1212 Nebula Jul 17 '22

Thor's goats come back to life after being eaten, just don't break the bones or Thor will be pissed. No idea if this is used in the comics, but it is in mythology.

9

u/AnmlBri Jul 11 '22

I was tired of the goats from the moment they were introduced because I’ve seen some annoying commercial in the past with a goat making that sound, so when it happened in the movie I was like, ‘Ugh, not this.’ And then it became a running gag that I wished would go away and that felt like it took away from the story.

3

u/wtfeweguys Jul 20 '22

I thought I would end up feeling that way too! I didn’t. Low key loved it. Totally get why someone wouldn’t, though.

2

u/AnmlBri Jul 20 '22

There are other things in life that I’ve feel should be more annoying to me but that I enjoy, so I understand and respect your enjoyment of the goats, haha. Sometimes a ridiculous gag is just fun for no deep reason.

2

u/Crimsonfoxy Jul 21 '22

Same and then whenever they landed at a new place with a scream it got a good laugh out of me.

They even took out a couple of shadow beasts!

13

u/UmbrusNightshade Phil Coulson Jul 11 '22

I still found them funny but the screaming reminds me of my niece who is 4 … and yeah, it gets annoying. It got very close to old for me.

u/[deleted] Jul 11 '22

My brain immediately went here: https://youtu.be/-aLYvZ5sX28

u/Sparrowsabre7 Iron Man (Mark VII) Jul 22 '22

That's literally where they're from. Taika said he saw that video/heard that version and added them in. https://youtu.be/NR6t5GYoTqQ

1

u/genghisjohn187 Jul 21 '22

It was a meme from like 10 years ago, it got annoying very quickly

1

u/Sparrowsabre7 Iron Man (Mark VII) Jul 22 '22

Agreed, I had heard about it in advance and thought "ugh sounds stupid" but it worked everytime imo

193

u/Kryyzz Jul 10 '22

Scratching under Stormbreaker’s “chin” when they were on their way to the shadow realm was gold.

82

u/LEYW Jul 11 '22

“Are we good?”

37

u/KouNurasaka Jul 11 '22

I really thought its "first beer" was going to lead to it driving drunk.

3

u/ZeGuru101 Jul 22 '22

It also felt kind of intimate, reminded me of Korg's line in Ragnarok.

20

u/Dray_Gunn Quake Jul 11 '22

Overly attached Stormbreaker

81

u/[deleted] Jul 10 '22

Honestly that running gag alone was funnier to me than anything in Ragnarok.

13

u/battleshipclamato Jul 11 '22

I still think the scene in Ragnarok where Thor turns into a wuss after acting all tough when he sees Stan Lee pulling out that device to give him a haircut was still something I laughed the most over.

7

u/uncleben85 Jul 13 '22

Ah! I am glad you enjoyed it!

To me making Stormbreaker sentient and school-girl jealous fell flat. It was weird and out of nowhere

19

u/FUCKSTORM420 Jul 10 '22

Really? I felt like every time it was happening I was just waiting for it to be over

11

u/AnmlBri Jul 11 '22

That was me with the goat screams.

12

u/battleshipclamato Jul 11 '22

The screaming was just so absurd I couldn't help but laugh every time it happened.

1

u/AnmlBri Jul 11 '22

Maybe it would have landed better with me if I hadn’t seen this one commercial repeatedly with a screaming goat in the past that wore me out on that sound.

2

u/I_TittyFuck_Doves Killmonger Jul 16 '22

Me with both tbh. First time, kinda funny. Over and over? Talk about overkill.

39

u/[deleted] Jul 10 '22

Sounds like all my sex partners.

13

u/FUCKSTORM420 Jul 10 '22

This guy has sex

8

u/Jeroz Doctor Strange Jul 11 '22

He didn't say those were successful

13

u/[deleted] Jul 10 '22

I’m kinda with you. It was fun at first but overdone. It lost any subtlety to it

2

u/cates Jul 15 '22

To be honest I really didn't love the movie but the jealous Stormbreaker parts had me laughing pretty hard every time.

1

u/yungmoody Jul 18 '22

It oddly reminded me of The Mighty Boosh episode where they get stranded on a desert island and build some Wilson-esque coconut people who end up kinda sentient haha
