MCU Phase 4: 10 Epic Thor Moments Marvel Must Adapt
Who DOESN'T want to see the God of Thunder fight a Celestial?
As a buff lightning God with a magical hammer, Thor is as destined to have epic moments in comics as he is to wield Mjolnir.
With a family comprised mostly of badass deities and a series of monstrous and impressive enemies, there's a pretty good chance that Thor couldn't dodge monumental-feeling moments even if he actively tried to dodge them. Point being, while the MCU has given Thor his fair share of epic moments, there's still an ungodly number of comics they could and should adapt for the big screen.
Almost every major storyline - be it in a Thor standalone comic, or a collective Avengers one - seems legally obliged to include at least one extraordinarily badass moment for the God of Thunder, if not a solid two just in case one doesn't have its intended impact.
When it comes to entering seemingly un-winnable fights, Thor is almost always the man who enters the fray, largely due to the fact he has an impressive habit of either winning, or making a decent dent in his invulnerable enemy.
The MCU certainly hasn't made Thor out to be a gentle wallflower, but there's still definitely room for a healthy extra dose of completely epic moments to feature in the next Thor film.
10. Thor Fights The God Butcher
When you are Thor, God of Thunder, and you realise the person you are facing is unironically nicknamed 'The God Butcher', a whole lot of concerning thoughts must pop into your mind.
Despite these thoughts - or perhaps even because of them - Thor's fights with Gorr tend to get really extreme really fast, involving some of the most intense moments the superhero has ever been involved in.
The most extreme of these fights has to be the one within Thor: God of Thunder #5, which involves Thor hacking off one of the Butcher's arms. As epic a fight as this is, it only gets all the more so when it is discovered that defeating Gorr here isn't the end - as Thor has actually only faced a small portion of the Butcher's true powers.
As far as future enemies for MCU Thor go, Gorr the God Butcher has to be in the upper echelons of candidates that have to appear at some point in time. Seeing him as anything other than a major villain would be an absolute waste.
