00:00:00 - 00:10:00

The video compares a scene from Thor: Ragnarok with a similar scene from Thor: The Dark World, and argues that the latter is a better movie overall. Taika Waititi, the writer and director of Thor: The Dark World, is quoted as saying that he wanted to pay off the cheap and easy laughter from the earlier movie, but didn't do the necessary work to make the scene successful.

• 00:00:00 In the theater scene from Thor Ragnarok, Thor returns to Asgard to find his father Odin watching a cheesy play about his two sons. It becomes clear that this is not an accurate retelling of what actually happened and the scene serves as a setup for the eventual payoff. It advances the plot, character development, and worldbuilding, while also providing entertainment.
• 00:05:00 Taika Waititi's "Love and Thunder" fails to meet the requirements for a good scene in comparison to Thor Ragnarok's "The Final Conversation." The scene is pointless and not funny.
• 00:10:00 The video compares scenes from Thor and Thor: The Dark World, and highlights how Thor: The Dark World improved upon the original movie. Thor: The Dark World writer/director, Taika Waititi, discusses how he wanted to pay off the cheap and easy laughter from the earlier movie, but didn't do the necessary work to make the scene successful.
