* Thor proves he's more than a LightningBruiser, he's got a brain, which he demonstrates by getting close enough to Valkyrie to steal her shocking gizmo and use it to get the thing off his neck and escape.

Renamed and only applies to groups.


* Loki does a PowerWalk wearing his helmet, and juggles with knives while doing so.

* Loki does a PowerWalk badass stride wearing his helmet, and juggles with knives while doing so.



* We get an epic scene of Thor's team [[PowerWalk power-walking]] down the Bifröst to confront Hela.

There is no indication in the move or even the MCU wiki suggesting that Valkyrie fought the Hulk.


** There's also the OffscreenMomentOfAwesome later implied by Grandmaster: Valkyrie brought him Hulk too. Meaning Valkyrie beat and captured ''the Hulk'' as well!

Valkyrie likely did not beat the Hulk in battle. This isn't even listed in the description

** Let's face it. Untill he tried to fight Thanos, this was Loki's most humiliating fight. Thor may have beaten him, but he's stronger than Loki and Loki still gave a fight, and Thor yet has to beat him into unconsciousness. Same for Hulk, who, despite having delivered a CurbStompBattle as well which took him out of the fight, Loki was still conscious and taken by surprise. Against Valkyrie, he doesn't get in a single significant hit, and gets [=KOd=] after taking only 3 punches, a fraction of what he received before.

* DoctorStrange has clearly been training since his film if his casual mystical manhandling of both Thor and Loki is of any indication.

* The psychedelic synthesizer score that punctuates the scenes set on Sakaar is an unabashed hats-off to the awesomely '''fun''' sci-fi adventures of the 1980's like {{Film/Tron}}, Film/FlashGordon1980, WesternAnimation/{{Silverhawks}}, and WesternAnimation/{{Thundercats}} that will have your inner child pumping its fists and cheering in nostalgia.

** Valkyrie loses her ship at one point, but is able to hang on to Thor and Banner's. Thor tells her to get inside, she replies "In a moment!" Then she climbs on top and jumps from one enemy ship to another, single-handedly destroying each one in turn. Then Thor decides he doesn't want to be one-upped, culminating in the mother of all BackToBackBadasses sequence as Asgard's finest warriors rip apart an entire planet's armada with their bare hands.

** And yes, [[spoiler: ''he stands alone once more'' in the movie. And once Skurge's rifles run dry, he uses them as [[PistolWhipping clubs]]. He even turns an Einharjar to dust [[UseYourHead with just a headbutt!]] Not even Thor or Valkyrie did that. It takes ''Hela herself'' to finally bring him down. DyingMomentOfAwesome, indeed!]]

** Both awesome and heartwarming, when the scene opens Thor says "Sometimes you have to get captured just to get a straight answer." He's using Natasha's interrogation method.

* Thor's HeroicSecondWind in the final fight with Hela. After a brief vision in which Odin reminds him that Mjölnir was always a focus for his powers, not their source, Thor finally taps into his ShockAndAwe powers consciously. He all but obliterates the throne-room with a ''massive'' lightning bolt, sending Hela flying across Asgard and then leaps to the Bifröst, electricity arcing across his body and glowing in his remaining eye, pretty much taking a ride on his lighting. He opens with a spinning spear which destroys several Einherjar and begins plowing through them, lightning leaping and flashing as he fights to chain his attacks:
