History Headscratchers / ThorRagnarok

** That doesn't make any sense either as that would mean that Hulk would have spent more than the two years he was said to spend in Sakaar; with a time dilation as extreme as that (making seconds literal weeks) he would be dead or Banner would look like an old crust. It also makes Thor's interactions with Heimdall to not make any sense as they clearly talk to each other in Asgard time; if time passed fasted in Sakaar wouldn't Thor be talking incredibly faster? There's also the Quinjet; if time dilates so much, that would make the Quinjet so old it would have probably fallen apart.

** Also, keep in mind that The Ancient One, the most powerful and wise of the sorcerers, is dead, alongside God knows how many other practicioners. It's possible that the Sanctum Sanctorum started to become more proactive after it had sunk in that they are considerably less capable of protecting Earth thanks to the damage the Zealots caused.

* Given that Thor was able to wield lightning without Mjolnir and Hela's abilities make them more like Asgardians are beings of alchemy. Shouldn't that be more appropriate rather than what Thor spoke in the first film that in other worlds, its science while in your world, its magic.

* The previous films especially ''Film/ThorTheDarkWorld'' went out of their way to remove almost anything supernatural/magical about the Asgardians. They were supposed to be only a sort of advanced alien race mistaken as gods. Magic was almost a dirty word. The same with the rest of the nine worlds. Then you have ''Thor: Ragnarok''. Thor and Hela both insist on their godly titles to a point it comes across as something official instead of an nickname. Members of the royal family are far more powerful than other Asgardians for unknown reasons. Heimdall's powers transcend even psychic abilities. The mural in the throne room portrayed [[HolyHalo the royal family with halos.]] Ragnarok is some predestined in typically not found in sci-fi stories. Surtur came back from the dead thanks to being put in a magic fire which is typically found more in fantasy than science-fiction stories. For all the claims about the nine realms having advanced technology we saw very little of that outside of the bifrost. Neither Vaneheim, Musepelheim, or Jotunheim had anything like what is considered advanced tech in a sci-fi setting instead they are more fantasy. Thor also claimed Odin killed Surtur half a million years ago, which granted could be hyperbole, but unless it is a big one that means Odin is far older than five thousand years. ''Film/{{Doctor Strange|2016}}'' confirmed objects can be imbued with magical powers which is what seems Asgardians for the most part do. So, does the film make the Asgardians far more magical than the previous ones with only using more conventional scientific technology to fill in the blanks? Are the members in the royal family [[OurGodsAreGreater in a sense gods?]] Were certain aspects from the previous films retconned or at least downplayed? IIRC, Waititi stated he was treating this film as it it was the first Thor film and kind of ignoring the previous ones. So, did it change somethings to make the story closer to the comics where the Asgardians are supposed to be gods?

* Banner states quite lucidly that if he ever goes Hulk again he might not be able to turn back- we don't know if this assessment is rooted in scientific certainty but it seems reasonable to take it at face value. As fate would have it, he's forced by circumstances to Hulk out during the climax and we never see him turn back. So... is he now officially stuck as Hulk? And how is it his friend and comrade Thor hasn't noticed and done a whole "mournfully promise to do everything to help get you back" dealie?
