Synopsis: Thor enlists the help of Valkyrie, Korg and ex-girlfriend Jane Foster to fight Gorr the God Butcher, who intends to make the gods extinct.

Kriss, Ro and Brandon are back to talk the fourth Thor film in the MCU, Thor Love and Thunder. This film is very much a product of its director Taika Waititi. If you had a problem with Thor Ragnorok then you'll probably have a problem with this film and how it blends humor with some really dark themes. Waititi's take on Thor has been to take the God of Thunder and show how much tragedy he's gone through and frame it in humor on the surface and pain and sadness underneath. Christian Bale's Gorr is straight out of a horror film and also is a character built off of sadness and tragedy. 

Listen as we talk about what works and what doesn't work for this latest MCU film.
