I remember telling someone that, and they didn’t believe me. It had been a long time since I had read it, so I had to google it to make sure I hadn’t imagined it.

I don’t know what they were thinking.

$$$. That’s it, that’s what they were thinking. The previous Thors were among the worst performing MCU titles - I could be mistaken, but I believe Thor 2 was the worst. (Maybe outdated? Did eternals surpass it?) They needed to do something different to rake in the $$$, and they did, because the masses are stupid and will fork over $$$ if herded like cows. PS I actually liked Ragnarok, but I was never much of a marvel fan, so I didn’t have a preexisting idea of how the character should be portrayed to get offended by the switch.
