Marvel Studios Becoming A Disappointment?

Marvel Studios are becoming the carcass of their former glory as their script writers and directors water down all their superhero characters. I have been reluctant to watch Thor: Love and Thunder for a while now because I was contemplating if it was going to be interesting or not because of the trailer. When I look back to the old Marvel movies like five years ago, those movies were the real Marvel movies for me. Now, it all has been watered down in a disappointing way.

Thor:Love and Thunder is the fourth sequel to Thor's franchise. I will not lie but I was expecting so much more, considering how the previous sequels were. After I watched it, I was disappointed and crushed by Thor's character and I wonder how a strong character like Thor could become a joke. At the start of the first sequel of Thor, he was portrayed as the god of thunder, feared, admired and his hammer can't be used by anyone, but now Thor's hammer can be used by kids and anyone walking down streets could pick up his hammer and become Thor, son of Odin.

Everything that made Thor's characters special and unique has been watered down and turned into a joke. Now I say Thor as a joker and can't be taken seriously in the upcoming sequels to come in the future. Marvel is crashing, but they don't see or feel it because they are still being shielded with their former glory and fame.

Thor: Love and Thunder is an American superhero movie based on Marvel Comics. It is the sequel to Thor: Ragnarok which was released in 2017. This movie was released on June 23, 2022, produced by Marvel Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Studios. Love and Thunder stars, Chris Hemsworth (Thor), Tessa Thompson, Christian Bale, Jaimie Alexander, and some other actors that might be familiar to you. This movie was also directed by Taika Waititi who also co-wrote the script of the movie with Jennifer Kaytin Robinson.

Speaking about the synopsis of the movie, Thor: Love and Thunder are majorly about how Thor, in the middle of his mid-life crisis tries to find what his purpose is and how he was going to move on in life. But then, the movie starts with a man, Gorr, who was stranded in a dry, deserted land with his daughter, Love. Being the last of their race, Gorr prayed desperately to their god (Tapu) to save Love, but no prayers were answered. Love dies and Gorr becomes devastated in grief and pain. In his state of mind, a sword that can kill any god called The Necrosword called to him and led him to Rapu's forever green realm/forest.

Gorr told Rapu of how he had suffered, prayed to him, and how his daughter, Love, had died. But all that Gorr said seems to be of no concern to Rapu as he mocked him for being insignificant to his existence. In anger, Gorr renounced Rapu as his god and in turn, he gets maltreated by Rapu. The Necrosword chose Gorr, he then kills Rapu with it and then vows to kill all the gods that existed. Gorr was then granted the power to manipulate monsters in the shadow and given control of the shadow world.

Thor on the other hand was battling with his midlife crisis as he travels around the universe after he joined the Guardians
