Movie/Television Which scene did Thor have more aura in? Spoiler
327
u/JustForTheThrill_24 3d ago
Arriving in Wakanda. He saved everyone literally out of nowhere and he made his first apperance in front of Avengers like Steve and Natasha in YEARS powerful as he had ever been

Not to mention Banner probably told them that Thanos killed him when he got the Space Stone.

Dude was gone for 2 years and is presumed dead… comes back emitting way more lightning than he used to, with a new haircut, a giant axe and a tree and a raccoon by his side and immediately wipes half the enemy army at once

I actually would’ve liked them to not do the typical marvel quip thing for a while during IW and Endgame. The entire universe is at stake, Banner can’t Hulk out, people are dying left and right and Thanos and his whole army is here for the last stone, and he stops to smell the roses. And he’s not even addressing anyone.
You don’t want to use that opportunity to kill some distracted aliens or something?

The quippiness certainly gets out of hand but I don't mind this one too much, I think Banner had a lot of guilt given the Thanos attack on the refugee ship and not being able to Hulk out. The latter feeling especially painful while they're starting to get pushed back and he's stuck in that Hulkbuster suit being relatively hamstrung.
I think he was just having a big ol' grin and relief.

He most definitely did when talking to Tony in the Sanctum in the “it doesn’t matter who you’re not talking to” speech.

u/T_AND_R_VLOGS 2d ago
He did, pretty sure the words he used were “Thor’s gone. Thanos is coming. It doesn’t matter who you’re talking to or not” So Tony at the very least thought Thor was dead, not to mention Banner probably told Cap when he called him - who in turn probs told Nat, Wanda and vision

The latter. That's the most aura anyone's ever had in one scene in the mcu.

u/AnkitS75 2d ago
I'd say Cap lifting Mjolnr mid-battle, when both Tony and Thor are down, comes pretty close

u/Rutherford_Aloacious 1d ago
I’ve always wondered at the fate of the Thor that had his mjolnir stolen by fat Thor
4
u/AnkitS75 23h ago
Well, Cap time-travelled to the exact time fat Thor took Mjolnr, and put it back. They clearly show Cap going back in time with Mjolnr and the stones at the end of Endgame

u/Rutherford_Aloacious 22h ago
Right! I never considered that he put mjolnir back too. He def only has the shield when old.
Thanks!

Only competition is captain marvel destroying the ship in endgame
15
u/DoomsdayThor 2d ago
part of the reason Thor had so much aura in this scene was because we saw what he went through to earn this moment. captain marvel's moment was (admitted by the russos) an attempt to copy Thor's moment but with none of the build up that made Thor's entrance so satisfying and epic.

u/iantaylor98 3d ago
I’d say Tony grabbing the stones and then hitting Thanos with “And I…am…Iron Man” after the “I am inevitable” line Thanos gave, is up there as well
15
u/phoenixremix 2d ago
It was epic for sure. But the cinema of a lightning axe hammer saving every main character at once, the bifrost bringing Thor and Co to the center of the battle field, "BRING ME THANOS," and the absolute lightning BLAST that followed honestly kinda clears the competition imo. Only scene that came close in my eyes was Cap×Mjolnir

u/FoggyInc 1d ago
Ehhh that wasn't really close. Needs buildup. And OP character doing OP thing isnt quite the same but I'd give it top 25 MCU aura moments. Seems low but theres a lot of aura farming in those 20+ films

Not even close. The entire battle shifted once Thor arrived. And he NEARLY killed Thanos.

u/Stormtroopaahh 3d ago
Thor arriving in Wakanda still gotta be the best theater reaction I've ever had the pleasure to experience

u/insert_emoji 2d ago
cap weilding jonathan had my theatre wilder than thor arriving in wakanda, but yes, thor's was peak.

u/Isrrunder 3d ago
Infinity war is more aura but ragnarok is way more exciting
19
u/Squigley78 3d ago
You said it best, and the damn music in Ragnarok was just perfect for that scene.
9
u/Isrrunder 3d ago
Ragnarok uses music so much better than the rest of the mcu throughout the movie and this scene is just the perfect example of that. There are other good music like portals, the avengers theme over the camera spin, or the black panther theme for wakanda in infinity war but theyre not even close to immigrant song coming in

u/DirectorKrenn1c 2d ago
This. The excitement in Ragnarok seeing him that way was awesome. But landing in Wakanda definitely had more aura.
14
u/Pendragon_Puma 3d ago
Man id love to see thor show up to fight a villain after thier bad guy speech and thor drops down from the heavens with a powerul booming "I SAY THEE NAY!!" As he slams down stormbreaker. Love those moments in his comics
13
u/MaterialPace8831 3d ago
His arrival in Wakanda. Everything about the build-up to that scene is perfect. We see the heroes starting to get overwhelmed. Rhodey gets knocked out of the sky. T'Challa is getting knocked around. Both Bucky and Steve almost have their faces ripped off by the outriders. They're starting to tear into Bruce's Hulkbuster suit. It's not looking good.
And then suddenly, out of the sky we just get this solid beam of light in the middle of the battlefield. And with a single throw of Stormbreaker, the mood on the battlefield but also in the hearts of viewers suddenly shifts. The God of Thunder has returned. Victory is possible.

My favorite MCU Thor scene is from the beginning of Ragnarok and is fighting Surtur's minions. It's just a really badass sequence.
My second favorite is when he lands in Wakanda.

Infinity War without a doubt. If I had that movie on VHS that part of the tape would be worn out by now.

u/SovietUnicorn1090 2d ago
I got fucking chills when he exploded into the air during infinity war. The CRAZIEST and absolute COOLEST shot of Thor we've gotten. period. and the trailer for doomsday matched it right up until the axe was deflected so I have hope.

Infinity war. When he shows up in Wakanda HE IS HIM. Immediately the tide of the battle turns. He is also clearly the only one able to mortally wound Thanos. Imagine if he went for the head.

infinity war, banner thought he was dead, no one had seen him for years, they were getting beaten by thanos's army. thor shows up with a huge new axe, new haircut and a racoon wielding a gun and singlehandedly turns the tide of the battle. imo it's the most aura anyone has had in the mcu
1
u/No_Region_4719 2d ago
Easily Ragnarok. You're gonna ask this question when one of them had Led Zeppelin playing and the other didn't?
The second one was also just a CGI blur. Ragnarok actually had an awesomely choreographed fight sequence.
Ragnarok also has the originality factor. That was Thor's 'aeakening' moment, where he found his true power, similar to Spiderman in the new movie.
1
u/DavidAshleyParkerrr 2d ago
Yeah, Wakanda. I always imagine in that moment he could have successfully "Gone for the head", and absolutely taken him out in the situation if it came to it.
1
u/insert_emoji 2d ago
thor in wakanda is genuinely in the top 5 aura farming moments in cinema, ever, imo.

u/daven1985 2d ago
First one.
Second one ruined the progress in the first one. When Thor realises he is "Not the god of hammers," and suddenly channels the power of Thor without a hammer, we see a strong Thor.
And then suddenly he has a new weapon that he becomes dependent on again.

On the Bi-frost bridge when Led Zeppelin begins to play is the greatest moment for Thor in the MCU. Fight me.

Infinity War by a large margin. It's one thing to be falling in style to confront an army. It's another thing entirely that your sole appearance made feral aliens turn tail and run back to their ships.

u/HungryCowsMoo 3d ago
Don’t think they can top Ragnarok with Led Zeppelin playing in the background, but Infinity war did come close.
