"Korg makes it clear before this that The Hulk's opponents always die and while it's possible he chose to spare his old friend, we never learn how he gets Thor back to his apartment in The Grandmaster's home and why it would be ok for him to keep Thor alive"

I thought that was quite easily explained in the movie: Thor is a god. He awakened his inner power and his strenght outshined Hulk. That easily explained how he supported that punch.

So while Sif is not in the movie at all, the Warriors Three as well as Odin seem to all be killed off in the first act, it still isn't explained how Hulk was able to go to a planet in another Galaxy, the MCU villian curse continues and Heimdall is underused yet again, the movie is still a funny movie with great action scenes? I guess

"MARVEL WHY DO YOU KILL YOUR VILLAINS"



Guys. Pick one and stick to it.

@ShellHead - Good guys never die and all their villains are dead within a movie

Better?
ShellHead
ShellHead - 10/25/2017, 8:46 AM
@MalseMarcel - isn't that every action movie?

Also, why does a movie need a dead hero to be good? Are we really that [frick]ed up emotionally?

@ShellHead -
I don't believe for one second that she's really that old ass "one and done" kinda villain, and if she is...than that shit doesn't sit well with me...at all.
Did she really die? Maybe, but she's Hela, so who cares, she'll come back! :P

ShellHead
ShellHead - 10/25/2017, 8:50 AM
@MalseMarcel - but more to my point. Disappointment over a dead villain comes from a desire to keep seeing that character, yes? Well, why do some want the hero to die?

You see the problem here?

ShellHead - 10/25/2017, 8:51 AM
@Doomsday8888 - she's the goddess of Death, ffs

She'll be back.

@ShellHead - Apart from Loki, I think Marvel does a one-off on their villains because they don't pose a further threat for a return and thus aren't appealing. Heroes do have the appeal of appearing more than once. This can be applied to villains too, but I think that in the end it's just more appealing for the general audience to see more stories of the heroes

@ShellHead -

"Disappointment over a dead villain comes from a desire to keep seeing that character, yes? Well, why do some want the hero to die?"

A villain's death is normally disliked when the character is either likeable/memorable or not used to full potential. You can for example feel a character was underused (such as Red Skull) or over-used such as Loki and still want them to return to see what else is done with them.

A hero's death creates a ripple effect that affects the surrounding characters providing a level of emotional stakes - coupled with a level of in-universe believability (After fighting all these villains you would expect one of the main heroes to actually die)

For example;
- Hawkeyes family dies; he takes up the mantle of Ronin and has a personal revenge storyline

- Iron Man dies; the Avengers have to decide upon a new leader, the entire dynamic could change. Would people be as willing to follow a new leader? Would they split into seperate teams? How would they decide upon a new leader?

- Captain America dies; Iron Man may forgive Captain America, Bucky or Falcon could take up the mantle of Captain America hoping to prove themselves

@ShellHead - I don't get most people with the villains deaths. They always pitch new villains to bring but get mad when the used villains die so I'm guessing they want most of the villains to team up? But then "this movie is packed with too many characters" will start.

@ShellHead - I think the problem is that since Iron Man 1 not a single hero has died.

I get your point, for sure, and it doesn't bother me personally. ButbI can understand the other argument. Not a single threat has come along yet to raise the stakes by killing a main character.

Its to the point where people donxt expect anyone to die even in Infinity War. Or at least they wonxt stay dead once A4 ends.

As for the villains, Marvel doesn't have many great villains that aren't owned by Fox. So people want to see the truly great ones stick around for a bit. I can agree with that.

@ShellHead - Ill pick the villain issue for $500 Alex. One could make the point that if Marvel had simply spared the lives of such villains like Iron Mongerer, Whiplash, Killian, Kaecilius, Ronan, Malekith, Skurge (and not put Red Skull, Abomination, The Leader in limbo) while choosing to spare the lives of worthless villains such as bootleg Mandarin and bootleg Zemo then it could have made for better long term story telling.

@CorndogBurglar - Quicksilver supposedly died in Age Of Ultron.I think Hela will be back.

@ShellHead - They are both true they killed the warriors three to avoid killing anyone who really mattered, same with odin, Im glad they didnt kill hela, I just thought she was kinda lame, being odins daughter???? not lokis??? gtfo!

@MalseMarcel - MCU antagonists STILL ALIVE/NOT CONFIRMED DEAD

Abomination
Thunderbolt Ross
Justin Hammer
Loki
Red Skull
Winter Soldier
Zemo
Kaecilius (technically will live forever!)
Dormammu
Adrian Toombes

On average that's more than one antagonist out of very two films that seemingly survives.

@KungFuKoala - As of right now Ross and Hammer aren't really villains and Dormammu was just more of a tease. But yeah its nice that the majority of the third phase (seemingly) survives
KungFuKoala
KungFuKoala - 11/14/2017, 3:57 AM
@MalseMarcel - I see what you're saying but my point is that in the films in which they appear as villains, they weren't killed off, leaving open future possibilities (such as turning good as has been the case for some already such as Winter Soldier and Ross)

I'm already wondering if there are extended scenes for this because i can't believe Ray Stevenson and Zachary Levi would have come back just for that (no matter how big the cheque) Also, we don't know for sure that Hela dies because it kind of cuts away, but even so, how many times have Loki and Hela been killed off in the comics only to come back.
bkmeijer2
bkmeijer2 - 10/25/2017, 8:34 AM
@DukeSimian - It could be because the warriors three's actors were contractually obliged to return

@DukeSimian - Contracts honored and contracts fulfilled. Also, in order to segueway into Phase 4, gotta tie up loose ends on the way out.

Let's not pretend Ray Stevenson and Zach Levi are A-level talent who can write their own checks.
They came back for the checks.

Shit...maybe i should've posted that comment here and not in the other article... :P
Whatever, i agree with almost eveything except this point:
Didn't Work: How Did Thor Escape The Arena?

I could also add some more things.
