Thor: Love & Thunder - 25 WTF Moments

24. Korg's Ridiculous Opening Narration

Love and Thunder's framing device is a periodic narration from Korg (Taika Waititi), who is relaying the story of Thor's (Chris Hemsworth) heroism to some locals.

The hilarious opening sequence, set to Enya's "Only Time" no less, speedily chronicles Thor's life from birth - where he was brought on the battlefield by his mother, Frigga - through to the modern day.

This includes a fleeting glimpse at some of his more eccentric sexual conquests, including a wolf-lady, before Korg mistakenly refers to Jane Foster (Natalie Portman) as "Jane Fonda" - and later "Jodie Foster" - and dismisses the departed Warriors Three as "that guy, that guy, and whoever that is."

Considering the deaths of the Warriors Three was one of Thor: Ragnarok's most complained-about moments, this felt like Waititi throwing a little playful shade at fans.
