Thor: Love & Thunder - 25 WTF Moments

7. The Black & White Gorr Fight

The sure highlight of the film action-wise occurs when Thor, Valkyrie, and Mighty Thor travel to the Shadow Realm to do battle with Gorr.

The lengthy sequence takes place largely in monochrome with only occasional flashes of colour, as is a refreshing change from the usual plastic-y aesthetic the MCU has often been criticised for.

It helps of course that Christian Bale cuts a tremendously imposing figure as he captures and taunts the trio early on, but the battle itself is a blast, with Gorr holding his own as he attempts to slay Thor, before the heroes are overwhelmed and forced to flee.
