But... but that's who Thor is... like, literally all the time.

I really, really, really don't like it when actors get too much creative control. They make everything about themselves for nebulous reasons. See also: Robbie, Margot and Quinn, Harley.

Whatever Hemsworth was portraying in the latter MCU films may have been entertaining, but it absolutely wasn't "Thor". And it kinda irks me because Thor's one of the few Marvel characters I pay any attention to. They started off well even if it was a little dry, but by the end it was so far away from who the Thor character is, they could've just called him Hammer McDudeBro or something and it would've made no difference. People always whine and whinge quite loudly in accusing lots and lots of comic book movies of not being faithful in representing their characters, and what a grave injustice that is, but DudeBro Thor is celebrated by many because... "jokes" (And the quotes are definitely warranted)? What a paper-thin double-standard that is.

Of course, apparently most of what he did in Chickbusters was his own personal choices, too. So I guess it turns out that Chris Hemsworth, a guy whose work I initially enjoyed in his early years, is kind of a goofball jagoff who thinks he's hilarious but isn't really, and insists on putting too much of himself in his material. That's unfortunate. I liked him fine ten years ago but now I'd kinda be fine never seeing him again.

"Cabin in the Woods" is alright, though. Gotta admit, I LOVE seeing him wipe out on that trap wall.
