Summary
What do you get when Marvel hires a Shakespeare director to make a movie about a space Viking who gets grounded by his dad? Apparently, the film that saved the MCU.
This week, JD opens up about the story he walked into Thor carrying — and the one he walked out with. We get into why this film hit differently for him, why Loki isn't just a villain but a mirror, and what it actually means to hold the casket and watch your hands turn blue. We also dig into Kenneth Branagh's Shakespearean fingerprints all over this thing, why the God of Thunder fighting a robot is a bigger storytelling problem than it sounds, and what Thor quietly taught Marvel about matching heroes to villains going forward.
It's a damn good story. And sometimes a damn good story finds you at exactly the right moment.
