Episode 142 - Thor: Love & Thunder (w/Basic Entertainment & Guy at the Movies)

After we took off for our Fourth of July Festivities, we're back with another Marvel movie! It's the middle of the summer, and Dom & Chris are joined once again by Matt of Basic Entertainment & Joe of Guy at the Movies to discuss the fourth film in the Thor series and the 29th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Thor: Love & Thunder! Taika Waititi returns to the directing chair and Chris Hemsworth returns in his 9th outing as the titular character. The film finds Thor in a strange spot, post the events of Avengers: Endgame, where he's teamed up with the Guardians of the Galaxy going on random space adventures, not quite sure what his purpose is anymore. He's alerted to the prescence of a new enemy, in the form of Gorr the God Butcher, portrayed by Christian Bale, who's using a weapon called the Necrosword to hunt down and kill all the gods across the universe, and forms an alliance with his old allies Korg & Valkyrie, only to discover that his old flame, Jane Foster (Natalie Portman) has returned, and is able to wield Mjolnir as the Mighty Thor! With one sad twist: she's dying of cancer. It's a fun, crazy, neon, color and joke filled extravaganza, and the four of them are here to break down everything about the movie in the latest episode of the #talkintvpodcast
