WARNING: Major SPOILERS For Thor: Ragnarok's after-credits scenes follow from this point onwards.

Thor: Ragnarok features a total of two after-credits scenes but what exactly do they entail and just how much do they set up what comes next for the God of Thunder in the Marvel Cinematic Universe? Well, the first sets up the events of Avengers: Infinity War, something which was to be expected considering the fact the Comic-Con trailer for that movie kicked off with the hero floating through outer space!

After-Credits Scene #1 - Avengers: Infinity War

The scene begins with Thor and Loki trying to decide where in the cosmos they're going to take the remaining citizens of Asgard who have taken refuge on The Grandmaster's ship. As the brothers talk about whether or not it's really a good idea for the God of Mischief to return to Earth and settle on that being their final destination, a gigantic ship appears in front of them and the screen fades to black.

That's obviously one of Thanos' vessels and may hold the Mad Titan himself. How that leads to Thor being discovered by the Guardians of the Galaxy and what that means for the rest of the people of his ship remains to be seen but there's a very good chance it has something to do with the Tesseract as it wouldn't be out of character for Loki to have planned some sort of meet up with the powerful villain.

What does the second Thor: Ragnarok after-credits scene entail? You can find out by clicking below.

After-Credits Scene #2 - The Grandmaster's Comeuppance

The second after-credits scene is a lot more humorous in nature as it takes us back to Sakaar after the people have revolted against The Grandmaster. He's been holed up on one of the planet's many dumps in a crashed ship with two beautiful women (neither of whom seem overly pleased being stuck there with him) but is quickly confronted by his people and things look extremely bleak for his future.

The Grandmaster attempts to talk his way out of getting a beating (or worse) and tries to take credit for the revolution as they did need someone to revolt against! However, the scene ends when he suggests a tie but it's clear that he'll get his just desserts in the end. Chances are we won't see him again in the Marvel Cinematic Universe but that would be a shame as Jeff Goldblum is simply amazing here.

Well... that's... underwhelming.

CaptainElrond - 10/25/2017, 2:35 AM

The time has come

Chameleon - 10/25/2017, 2:35 AM

It's not mentioned much online but theres a scene where Hela goes into Odin's treasure room and walks upto the Infinity Gauntlet and says. "Fake" and knocks it over

CaptainElrond - 10/25/2017, 2:38 AM

@Chameleon - That ending was unexpected.

bkmeijer2 - 10/25/2017, 2:40 AM

I was wondering if there is any confirmation of the tesseract or any other infinity stone. Can anyone confirm?

Chameleon - 10/25/2017, 2:44 AM

@MalseMarcel - Tesseract is shown and it is hinted that Loki takes it

Origame - 10/25/2017, 2:47 AM

@Chameleon - So no soul stone?

Chameleon - 10/25/2017, 3:05 AM

@Origame - No soul stone at all

Origame - 10/25/2017, 3:39 AM

@Chameleon - shame

IKidYouNotMan - 10/25/2017, 7:14 AM

@MalseMarcel - the tesseract is in the film, yes.

AgeofHeroes - 10/25/2017, 2:49 AM

wow...lots of spoilers already...have not even remotely watched it

Doomsday8888 - 10/25/2017, 2:57 AM

Still collecting my thoughts from last night, man...

Roodi - 10/25/2017, 3:33 AM

@Doomsday8888 - You watched it already? Thoughts?

Jezi - 10/25/2017, 4:47 AM

@Roodi - He's collecting them.

GreedoSarducci - 10/25/2017, 7:57 AM

@xAdam - and keeping them near Howard The Duck.

obarium - 10/25/2017, 3:05 AM

Loved it!!

Easily the best Thor film. Looked spectacular, was funny in the best way, heartfelt, Kiwi, epic, and a big progression for the character of Thor in the MCU.

AgeofHeroes - 10/25/2017, 3:06 AM

@obarium - loved thor 1, 2 was mediocre but enjoyable hoping this one will be great...always had a soft spot for the thor franchise

kukurik - 10/25/2017, 3:35 AM

@RasAlGhul - This is my exact feelings for 1 and 2 as well and Ragnarok blew me away. Just incredible, I'm tempted to just go every night. A lot of noise about too much humour but 'it just works' and frankly pays the titular character respect that's long overdue.

obarium - 10/25/2017, 3:36 AM

@RasAlGhul - Just imagine the first two Thor films, but without Kat Dennings being crowbarred in for "comic relief" and Thor having a witty charisma, and his usual mixture of cocky arrogance and moments of insecurity.

obarium - 10/25/2017, 3:38 AM

@RasAlGhul - Oh and bigger and better.

AgeofHeroes - 10/25/2017, 3:05 AM

Wish i was in China right now

Roodi - 10/25/2017, 3:33 AM

@RasAlGhul - LOL that thread has lived and died here.

Supercat6376 - 10/25/2017, 3:05 AM

I scrolled down without reading. I will no longer ruin movies for myself, though kybsuvconciois will actively try to steer me into doing so lol

AgeofHeroes - 10/25/2017, 3:09 AM

need a new movie

PantherKing - 10/25/2017, 3:19 AM

Man I got a week left to wait

SecretWarrior - 10/25/2017, 3:54 AM

I wonder if the elders will help against thanks in IW. Would be awesome to see Goldblum in a full on avengers movie

Fogs - 10/25/2017, 3:56 AM

Hope I can make it and watch it tomorrow.

kylo0607 - 10/25/2017, 4:23 AM

Loved the film!

Can't wait for Sunday to see it again!

JohnnyTBP - 10/25/2017, 5:02 AM

No Soul Gem? Black Panther has it then

UltronPrime - 10/25/2017, 5:04 AM

@JohnnyTBP - definitely would explain thanos invasion of wakanda
