Thor: Ragnarok - 10 Reasons To Be Excited

2. Hammerless Thor

One of Ragnarok's most tantalising promises is the deconstruction of familiar characters, and it will introduce us to a Thor stranded outside of his comfort zone.

Hera smashing his hammer, Mjolnir, to pieces will be a game-changer for Odinson as it renders him under-powered.

As an Asgardian, Thor isn't somebody to mess with even without his trademark weapon, but losing it will force the Thunder God to rethink he strategy.

Ragnarok could very well introduce us to a more tactical God of Thunder, who is forced to take a page out of brother Loki's book.

Loki has always been Thor's intellectual superior, but without Mjolnir on his side, it may be time for Odinson to learn a trick or two from his sibling.

He doesn't seem to have any issue channeling lightning in the trailer, though, but it remains to be seen whether that will be enough to match Hela's deathly powers.
