Thor: Love and Thunder is the fourth installment in the Thor franchise. Once again pairing Chris Hemsworth with director Taika Waititi, the movie generated interest when it was announced that Natalie Portman would reprise her role as Jane Foster. Similar to Thor: Ragnarok the film had a strong comedic element that has fan opinion divided over this film. In this episode we discuss the cast, characters, and plot of the movie. We also talk about the humor element, how the Guardians of the Galaxy were utilized, and the ramifications for the greater MCU.
In this week’s five-minute controversy we ask if the proper designation for the MCU should be Earth 616 or Earth 199999.
This week Ryan, Eric, Wil, and Eric join the cast.

It’s been over six months, since Thor: Ragnarok hit theaters. Teaming up Thor with the Hulk, the film boasted a higher humor content than previous movies in the Thor franchise and also ended up being the highest grossing film in the series to date. This week, the 42cast talks about the movie, it’s place in the Thor franchise as well as the MCU in general, and what we’d like to see out of the franchise in the future. We also debut our new segment, Five Minute Controversies.
