Marvel vs Norse Mythology: Every God in Thor Explained & Compared | WIRED

Loved this deep dive into how Marvel's version of Thor and the Norse gods compare to their mythological origins! 🌟 It’s fascinating to see how the stories and characters have evolved. Thanks for making these comparisons so clear and engaging!

Its not MCU 's job to adapt Norse mythology

MCU adapts marvel mythology comics which are based on Mythology

Enjoyed this immensely. Let's not forget that in the MCU universe Asgard and it's citizens are the "gods" as they actually are. These gods according to MCU Odin "fell into mans myths and legends" hence mans stories of the Norse pantheon. It's a flip of sorts. With us the mythology came first and the MCU stories much later. With MCU the gods came first and our mythology came after. Hope I explained that right.

Your facts are not true. I am of the asatrù faith and this is not correct. You are brainwashed by modern cinema.

ginger sounds like a slur when you say it

Hel is more of a place then a Person.
Married people could argue about that :)

Frigga who 🤨 Frigga who 🤨

The one character that is missing in these movies is mimir

Funny thing about the thumbnail is that the painting is also inaccurate. Thor has red hair and a long red beard.

Bit of a crappy explanation really. There's a lot more to be said

Marvel really took some liberties; I do like that the mentioned Bor as Odin's father tough....

Anyone who really wants to get to know the asatru is the religion name.

Imagine the shock. Heimdall is not black.

LokE who Remains

Nothings of gods exc3pt Alexandre The Great God ( Al Kahf 83 - 99 - White Peoples Homework - Who was Alexandre The Great God ? ) . Good luck .

Taking his free course on Coursera 😊

If frigg is not a mother of Thor, then who is the mother of Thor?

Can we talk about the necklace? What does the shape means?

You forgot that Loki is actually Odins step brother

thor know magic?

I'd honestly like to smash you with a "Thor's hammer"
It's called Mjölnir btw....

This guy skimmed over Sif.

I think Im starting to grow on dR.>NordVpn still annoying commercials tho

Marvel disrespected Norse Mythology, Thor, Chris Hemsworth and Stan Lee with its last two thor installments.

Does the hammer choose who’s worthy ?

Omg finally guy who studies Norse mythology pronounce most things right 😂 like óðin, frigga and more

All this talk about NORDIC states burning the QURAN!! If you were ISAAC you would’ve understood the sensitivity of your actions toward your brother ISHMAEL. So stop with the GREEK MYTHOLOGY and the reason I could NEVER go see another MARVEL MOVIE. You didn’t keep it fictional and didn’t stay within the confines of SCIENCE FICTION. So you will REAP what you have SOWED.

Thor x Sif should get together in the MCU. Always expected it to happen, never really vibed with Jane x Thor.

The great thing is that in Thor ragnarog, thor ride chariot drawn by two goats

This dude knows more than kratos

Marvel Thor didn't stop ragnarok, he only hope to. In the end his actions helped bring ragnarok about since Surtur's crown could so easily be placed in the eternal fire, having been brought to Asgard. And Surtur says in the opening, "you cannot stop ragnarok".

i'd love to see what he thinks about God of War: Ragnarok

Our week days are named after norse gods.
Søndag (Sunday) Day of the sun. Mandag (Monday) the day of the Moon. Tirsdag (Tuesday) the day of Tyr. Onsdag (Wednesday) the day of odin. Torsdag (Thursday) the day of Thor. Fredag(Friday) the day of goddess Freya.

I like Ancient Greece but Norse mythology is way more interesting & serious imo

God of war video games accurately portrayed Norse History. Except Thor rode in a chariot run by two goats.

Heimdall was not black. Get triggered!!!!!

they forgot fenrir

Do they have A DC version?

I love how South Park made the word "Ginger" a known thing. 😂😂

Giant cannibals?? AoT people be like 👀

So..... did he just say that that's the parenting guide for men? 😂 Or rather the "how to NOT mess it up this bad"-guide? Gentlemen, the reality of raising a human well by all means exceeds the horrors of marvel universe! It's harder. So make sure to conquer your conquests well, if you were brave of foolish enough to start them. 😉

he actauly did take the form of a snake wonce

What was that adoption thing in reallife? Eric

Do I go into Robert?

See, know that is Dolia as well, do I raise my wife sometimes because sometimes I think of her as daddy's little girl, whys that?

I always thought Dolia and I were Thor and Thorina.... Anyone?

It means that I let you see through my eyes.... Oh, maybe ye shall kneel before me and none other than me, I'm not ready no matter how senile I get to let go of the Hammer, I bet Tyler was Thor and David, Loki.... Do you guys know? Maybe I need some pickled herring..... hmmmmmm, internal conflict.... ;)

Think about the patch over the eye and the camera..... oO

I sear when I'm younger anyhow, I thought at least, I was Thor am I Odin? Look at me when I'm old....
