Ok so after seeing this again in the credits scene I noticed
That the Grey guy hanging with Thanos spoke of humans like he never met them before which buries my admittedly super out there theory about him.
But he defiantly isn't a Chituari. He has a human mouth.
He doesn' however share the Skrull/Slash Thanos chin.
Which leads me to believe he is either a Skrull, perhaps the last of his kind with all others transformed into the cyborg living weapon Chituari or they are changing how the Eternals look and he is another Eternal.
I don't think you know what the eternals are?
And he definitely doesn't have a human face. Plus there's he whole 6 fingers thing
I'm not saying he is human. I'm saying he doesn't have the lipless dog head thing the Chitauri do.
I know the Eternals are Thanos's race. He and Thanos share a unique chin.
I really don't think they're going to try and put the uranos eternals in any sort of story. In fact I don't even know what what the current continuity even is with the eternals after gaimans mini.
Regardless, simply making thanos an eternal without the uranos caveat and cutting out any chance of a proper eternal story seems unlikely

the Eternals were recently in a Thor run, and Sersi has been showing up in one of the other team books.

But keep in mind that
other Eternals don't look like Thanos, they look human
Thanos was born with a mutation that makes him look like a Deviant
If The Other is anything from the comics he's probably a Deviant
The story may have been relatively simple, but it's still a story!
Also, would a person with gravity powers be able to lift Mjolnir?
Technically, yes!
In "Thor and the Warriors 4", which is admittedly an alternate universe, a version of Alex Power is deemed worthy of Mjolnir.
Which means he's probably killed some dudes off panel some time. Everybody knows you got to be willing to kill dudes to wield Mjolnir. It's why Superman could only lift it once in an emergency.
(Also, in Marvel Vs. DC, Wonder Woman lifted it, but nothing came of it because voters went with Storm in a fight, narrowly beating Lobo V. Wolverine as the most bullshit match on the fight card.)
...What?
Riiight. Not everyone's read the Simonson interview stuff on his reasoning for Beta Ray Bill.
Basically, Worthy doesn't just mean "good" or "heroic". Means that on top, of course, but this is the hammer of a Norse god, and those guys? All about the wrecking of faces. You have to be honest and forthright and all that. Sure. But also you need to be the kind of guy who'd get into Valhalla. Warrior's death.
Simonson didn't think Cap would qualify when writing the issue since Cap's flying the American flag. Meaning he'd be working for someone who isn't Odin and Asgard and publicizing it. Interesting enough, Cap first lifted the hammer when he was just The Captain. So no flag, no America, main problem gone.
I don't know that I like either of these ideas
I think "worthy" should mean a lot of things and shouldn't necessarily restrict people who don't kill and people who are not specifically sworn to Asgard
Worthy warrior is the key phrase. Vikings kill people. To be worthy of the hammer, you have to be a warrior, not a protector. The hammer is a killing weapon. That's the whole point.
It's why cap is worthy, and superman shouldn't be.
(I use superman as an example because he has wielded the hammer, and simonson thought it was a bad call. It still made a great image, though. )
But "worthy warrior" isn't the phrase
The phrase is just "if he be worthy"
I recognize what Simonson wanted to do with that framework but the actual wording of the enchantment leaves a lot of open ends and thus I don't like the way he has characterized it
Well I mean, you need to take into account the culture the enchantment was made in, that's why I was talking about worthy warriors, because that's what the enchantment means.
It doesn't mean "if you want to pick up this hammer to do some light gardening"
Norse culture revolves around heroic deeds, it's a warrior ethos. They think that killing your enemies is a virtue. So, I don't see a way around that, seeing as how their gods made the magic hammer. It's a killing weapon, and to be a worthy norse warrior is to be willing to kill your enemy.
But in the Thor film Odin specifically also mentions Mjolnir's usefulness "as a tool to build" which would imply to me that equal value may be placed on creation/protection/defense as "worthy" virtues
And yes I did just realize that I brought up the movie incarnation and you're talking about the comics

It is ridiculous and delicious.
ridiculicious.
The previous biggest opening ever was harry potter 7.5 with $169 million.
Wow.
Well, stands to reason, Hulk alone would beat up everyone in the WAIT NO WHAT AM I DOING
I have dumbledore's army.
We have a Hulk.
Etc
Harry is a decent young man.
Now Voldemort would be a pretty juicy fight.
Apparently it's made 641 mill worldwide already
More than any of the previous MCU movies made total
This baby's gonna shatter a billion!

But then I think the first Iron Man movie is a better film than any Batman movie ever made, not that I don't love Batman.
I'm also looking up shawarma places here in Atlanta and my favorite gyro place apparently also does schawarma! Right-on!
except with shawarma
Just a ton of people in this thread that are out of their goddamn minds.

When someone tries to do a "fun" batman movie you get Batman and Robin.
Oh absolutely. It's actually kinda hilarious.
All those poor little shawarmas
Flushed down the toilet by children thinking they're freeing them
I imagine archery instructors are gonna do pretty well this summer
still got brave coming out too
gotta hook the young ones
Pixar's Brave hits pretty soon too!
if only someone could make a movie that was like a live action episode of Brave and the Bold
Those Old Spice "I'm on a horse" commercials are the closest thing I can think of that compares to the sheer ridiculousness of Brave and the Bold.

RDJ nails Tony Stark
