Thor: Ragnarok Easter Eggs & Things Changed from The Trailers

Warning: This post contains spoilers. You have been warned.

It's that time again folks where I tell you some of the easter eggs I noticed in Thor: Ragnarok and remember I'm not listing every single one just the ones I noticed. So let's get started.







During the beginning of the movie Thor mentions how he's been searching for the Infinity Stones. The Infinity Stones are the most powerful thing in the Marvel Universe and will definitely be a big problem for the Avengers for when they have to fight Thanos in Avengers: Infinity War.






Now it's time to talk about everybody's favorite green monster the Hulk. In the movie he's wearing gladiator armor that looks very close to the one he wore during the Planet Hulk storyline.







Then later on we see Hulk wearing an outfit that looks similar to the one he wore in Ultimate Hulk vs. Wolverine. You know the one, it's the comic where the Hulk rips Wolverine in half.




Thor's short hair appearance is a nod to he's current look in the comics. The only thing that's missing from that look is the metal arm. Which to be honest if he got that in the movie it would have looked awesome.






We get a play reenacting Thor: The Dark World more specifically Loki's supposed death. With Chris Hemsworth's older brother Luke Hemsworth playing Thor and Matt Damon playing Loki.







Also during the play the actor playing Loki brings up turning Thor into a frog. Which is a nod to when Thor was actually turned into a frog. He was often called Throg.






The Grandmaster's arena where he has his gladiator matches is called "Contest of Champions". This is a reference to the Marvel Comics' limited series also titled Contest of Champions and while we do get superheroes fighting each other the reason for them fighting are complete different.






Stan Lee gets his usual cameo appearance. This time he's playing a crazed barber who cuts Thor's hair.






Thor: Ragnarok actually gives an answer to how we have two Infinity Gauntlets in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Before I tell you what the answer is let me explain a few things. Back in 2011 when the first Thor movie was released people noticed an Infinity Gauntlet with Infinity Stones on it in Asgard's vault. Then in 2015 during the post-credit scene in Avengers: Age of Ultron we saw Thanos put on his Infinity Gauntlet which didn't have Infinity Stones. This drove fans crazy wondering how Thanos could possible have an Infinity Gauntlet without the stones when we saw one with the stones in an earlier Marvel Cinematic Universe movie. Luckily Thor: Ragnarok finally explains this is by telling us the one in Asgard's vault is a fake.






During Hulk and Thor's fight in the Contest of Champions, Hulk takes Thor and slams into the ground by his legs. Loki stands up and shouts "Yeah that's what that feels like!" This is a callback to when the Hulk did the same thing to Loki in The Avengers (2012).

Beta Ray Bill

Bi-Beast

When we see the building for the Contest of Champions the front of it has the faces of past champions. The champions are other Marvel Comics' characters those being Beta Ray Bill, Man-Thing, Ares, and Bi-Beast



So those were the easter eggs I noticed in Thor: Ragnarok. I hoped you enjoyed this and I hope you'll all enjoy my next and last easter egg post of the year related to Justice League.

 Things Changed

Hey guys so I really felt like I was lacking on some the easter eggs here so as an added bonus I'm going to tell you some things that were changed from the trailers we saw. So here I go

One thing that was changed was when Hela destroyed Mjolnir. Originally it was going to happen in some sort of New York alley and then an explosion across the city. But what we got in the movie was Hela destroying the hammer on the edge of a cliff in Norway right after Odin died. Taika Waititi the director of Thor: Ragnarok said they changed the setting because the alleyway didn't provide the emotional impact they were going for.

Another thing that was changed were that all four members of "The Revengers" being on the Bifrost Bridge ready to battle Hela. In the movie however only three members are on the bridge those being Thor, Loki, and Valkyrie and the Hulk was busy fighting Hela's dog Fenris. The coloring is also quite different in the trailer it looks like their fighting in the day and in the actual movie it's very gray and dark what with all the destruction going around.

In the Thor: Ragnarok trailers we clearly see that Thor has both eyes. While in the movie Hela brutally cleaved his left eye right out of it's socket. Now it's very obvious why they did this, it was so we would have a shocking moment for the move. Unless your reading this but hey I warned you there would be spoilers.

So that's going to do it for this post, tune in on Thursday when Raiders of the Lost Media makes it's return. In that post I'll tell you about the cancelled sequel to Disney's Dumbo.
