Taika Waititi's MCU return carried a sizable budget, but it's not at the tip-top of the financial mountain.

The same could be said of its worldwide total, which exceeded $1 billion, according to [Box Office Mojo](https://www.boxofficemojo.com/title/tt3498820/?ref_=bo_se_r_2). [The Numbers](https://www.the-numbers.com/movie/Thor-Ragnarok#tab=summary), the budget for Ragnarok was a surprisingly "small" $180 million. [ Avengers take on Kang](https://screenrant.com/mcu-avengers-want-see-fight-kang-multiverse-saga/), they took on the Chitauri in May 2012's crowd-pleasing The Avengers. [The Avengers](https://screenrant.com/tag/the-avengers/) had owned the previous Summer, and there's an argument to be made that Iron Man 3 did the same thing for Summer 2013. The same could be said of Infinity War and the two entries that preceded it. Considering Robert Downey Jr.'s $50+ million salary and the inclusion of Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Rudd, Jeremy Renner, and the late Chadwick Boseman—not to mention a particularly massive set piece—and it's surprising the price tag didn't run higher. Guardians of the Galaxy has become one of the MCU's most successful corners, but there's no doubt the ( [Box Office Mojo](https://www.boxofficemojo.com/title/tt2015381/?ref_=bo_se_r_1)-reported) $170 million budget held by the first film could have been far too much had audiences not taken so well to Gunn's unique vision and style. Admittedly, Black Panther is hardly the MCU's most grandiose or even good-looking film, but the $200 million budget was used to create something truly special, and audiences responded in droves (repeatedly). It's as visually stunning as most of the rest of the Universe, but there wasn't enough narrative heft or relatable characters to make it one of Marvel's event films (as it should have been). Coogler's film stands as one of the very few MCU installments that can bring tears to the eyes, be it for the triumph of T'Challa's resurrection or the memory of the dearly missed Chadwick Boseman. With that being said, there are some budgets that make a $100 million price tag look like spare change.

Thor: Love and Thunder is going to start streaming on Disney Plus very early Thursday morning.

Now that Thor's Disney Plus release reiterates there's really no telling when movies will start streaming, you could be able to stream the Black Panther sequel just a month and a half after it's out -- or you could have to wait until next year. Every year, that week is an extraordinarily popular time for streaming -- and for going out to the movies. Up until Thor: Love and Thunder, Disney seemed finally to be settling into a pattern for releasing its big films on its streaming service. Disney hasn't officially declared a standard length for these theatrical exclusives. But for more than a year, Disney has been giving its live-action theatrical releases long stints of exclusivity in theaters before making streaming an option. For [Marvel](https://www.marvel.com/)'s [Eternals](/culture/entertainment/eternals-is-finally-on-disney-plus-prepare-for-a-long-ride/), it was two months.

In the highly anticipated new film, Thor partners up with King Valkyrie, Korg and ex-girlfriend-turned-Mighty-Thor Jane Foster to take on a galactic killer ...

Truth be told, you can likely get away with watching Thor: Love and Thunder without watching any Marvel Disney Plus series. Wondering what movies and shows you should try checking out before you head out to watch Now we get it, that’s ten movies in total we’re recommending you watch before seeing Thor: Love and Thunder so which are the essential watches?

Between helping Thor become worthy again and her own Nobel Prize-nominated work, Jane Foster has proven herself worthy.

Jane Foster was worthy enough to change Thor from entitled brat to worthy hero, and worthy enough to change our understanding of the world, then why wasn’t she worthy enough to wield Mjölnir on her own? But as sweet and romantic as it may seem that Thor’s love was strong enough to rewrite the laws of Mjölnir, this unfortunately puts a patronizing lens on how we view Jane’s worthiness and her transition into Mighty Thor. She dives headfirst into her role as Mighty Thor because she knows how important it is to help others, not because she dated an Avenger, but because it’s who she is. And we do, gladly, because Cap has shown time and time again that he is willing to give his life to help others. Using Mjölnir as a personified protector of Jane rather than solely as a tool for her empowerment is patronizing because it automatically assumes that we wouldn’t believe Jane was worthy without Thor’s spell. He’s worthy because he still cares, even if he tries to act like he doesn’t. Even though he barely moved the hammer from the coffee table in Avengers: Age of Ultron, we’re expected to trust that everything that Cap has gone through between then and this final stand against Thanos was enough to tip the scales in his favor. That same movie also makes a point to show that Thor is still worthy, even when he feels his lowest, by having him bring Mjölnir back from the past briefly. Throughout Thor, we see the titular God of Thunder struggle to shed his cocky and entitled attitude. Mjölnir has had three people wield its power in the history of the MCU – Thor (Chris Hemsworth), Captain America/Steve Rogers (Chris Evans), and now Dr. This isn’t to argue that Rogers and Thor weren’t worthy or deserving of that power in these moments, but rather to ask why Jane had to have that extra caveat in order for us to believe she is worthy of the hammer? [Thor: Love and Thunder](https://collider.com/tag/thor-love-and-thunder/), Thor tells Jane that she is what made him worthy to wield Mjölnir again when he was banished to New Mexico in the first Thor movie.

The Marvel Studios film stars Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, Christian Bale, Tessa Thompson, Taika Waititi and Russell Crowe.

Axl's floating head has been tweaked for the Disney Plus version of Thor: Love And Thunder, but Marvel fans still don't like it.

It seems [Marvel](https://www.thegamer.com/tag/marvel/) has been listening, as one of the scenes which got criticized most in Thor 4 has been tweaked for Disney Plus. Axl's head now looks a lot sharper in the scene, but as you can see in the tweet above, along with its replies, many people don't appear to think that necessarily makes it better. There are a select few fans who have tried to defend the poor effects. That communication manifested on screen via Axl's floating head and to put it mildly, it did not look good. Axl and a few other Asgardian children are held captive by Gorr the God Butcher, but Axl manages to communicate with Thor from afar using his inherited powers. One of the ongoing arguments surrounding it and the [MCU](https://www.thegamer.com/tag/mcu/) as a whole comes down to CGI and special effects.

"By now, Hemsworth could probably perform Thor in a coma, but there’s no sense he’s sleepwalking through the role.

The message of Aaron’s run isn’t that all gods must die, but that all gods must change. [Thor: Love and Thunder](https://www.polygon.com/23333106/thor-love-thunder-deleted-scene-guardians-hemsworth-pratt) to do justice to [Gorr the God Butcher](https://www.polygon.com/23124300/thor-love-and-thunder-christian-bale-villain-name-gorr-god-butcher). Other strong themes took its place, like family ties and wrestling with the sins of your forefathers. You don’t have to watch much of Thor: Love and Thunder to get Gorr’s basic deal: The guy thinks all gods should die, and he’s got a plan to make that happen. I mean, yeah, it’s a story about Thor’s evolution as a person, but it’s also got a “godbomb” that will reach across time to kill every god who ever lived at every moment of their lives simultaneously — and tons and tons of Ribić’s gorgeous art. That worthiness isn’t something you are, but something you work to do every day, and is closely tied to an acceptance of mortality, whether your own or that of your loved ones.

Launched last year on Disney+, Marvel Studios Assembled drops new episodes every time a new Marvel movie is introduced to the catalog, or when a Marvel series wraps up its run. The documentary episode brings, of course, interviews with Portman herself, who states that “it feels really rewarding to get to come back with a completely different lens on the same world.” The new release is accompanied by another episode of Marvel Studios Assembled, a documentary series that brings behind the scenes information about all movies and series from Marvel.
