Thor: Ragnarok Trailer Highlights



Marvel has released the first teaser trailer for Thor, accompanied by some Led Zeppelin and a big green friendly giant. 

May contain spoilers. 



As Led Zeppelin's Immigrant Song plays out, we're shown our first official look at Thor: Ragnarok footage - and boy, is it brilliant? Here's 10 highlights from the teaser trailer, which you can watch below. 



1. Yep, that's me. You're probably wondering how I got into this situation.



We first meet Thor, fresh from his time with Midgardian Darryl. With his locks still in place, Thor seems to be in a bit of a pickle. 

2. Meet Hela, played by Cate Blanchett. 


Cate Blanchett appears as Hela, the main baddie. Hela stops Mjolnir with her hand, giving a smirk that seems to sum up just how villainous she's going to be. Seriously though - she stopped Mjolnir (although, nice touch with Hela's arm shaking to show just how powerful Mjolnir is)!

3. Mjolnir is destroyed



Hela destroys Thor's beloved Mjolnir, shattering it to pieces and sending out an electrical pulse that causes some damage to the surroundings. Again, nice touch on how powerful Mjolnir is - but also just how powerful Hela is. 

4. Asgard is destroyed



Hela destroys Asgard, delivering another heavy blow to Thor - tearing apart both Mjolnir and Asgard, two things Odin fought hard to put together, will not leave Thor best pleased.

5. Valkyrie, played by Tessa Thompson, delivers Thor to the Grandmaster to prepare for battle in the gladiatorial arena.



We get a first look at Thompson's Valkyrie who brings Thor to the Grandmaster (more later). The aliens in this scene give real Star Wars/Guardians of the Galaxy vibes and I'm all for it.


6. Heimdall unleashes his full potential



Heimdall's gone rogue! Idris Elba makes a fleeting appearance in the trailer as everyone's favourite guard of the Bifrost Bridge (at least he used to be). 


7. Skurge, Hela and Loki take part in a battle



Karl Urban makes a quick appearance as Skurge, Hela does a front flip and Loki shows up just in time to cause some trouble (or save the day, perhaps?).

8. Thor finally wears his helmet



Prepare to geek out hard. Finally, after some teasing and hints along the way, Hemsworth's Thor finally dons the helmet we've all been waiting for. Just in time for an old friend...

9. "We know each other, he's a friend from work"



Thor is overjoyed when his old Avengers playmate, Hulk, enters the arena. Grandmaster, played by the one and only Jeff Goldblum (who looks amazingly bizarre in his Capitol-esque attire), isn't best pleased. Loki, who's sat with Grandmaster, looks a bit stunned too - but we know all about Loki's history with Hulk.

10. Thor VS Hulk



In Thor: Ragnarok's very own take on Captain America: Civil War's airport 'splash page' scene, Thor and Hulk begin to battle. Hulk wearing his gladiator outfit, Thor wearing his... helmet. This looks like a battle like no other.

That's all for now.

P.S. sorry for not posting for a while (and not finishing the Best Of 2016 posts), I've been snowed under with uni work. I have four weeks left of university so I'll be back in full force mid May!

Thanks for reading!

Bye!
