“Now, I know what you’re thinking. ‘How did this happen?’ Well, it’s a long story.” Who starts a tense comic book movie trailer like that? Well, Taika Waititi, that's who.

Whether that line even makes it into the movie remains to be seen - it's too on-the-nose (unless he's telling his story to Valkyrie after he's escaped from the battle arena?) Anyway, the opening line establishes the tone immediately in the perfect way.

Obviously things start badly and just get worse for the God Of Thunder.
