The third Thor movie (and in some people’s opinions, the best) is out today on home video. Thor: Ragnarok stars Chris Hemsworth as the God of Thunder — only he’s stuck across the universe without his hammer. He works to escape the Grandmaster’s (Jeff Goldblum) gladiatorial battles with the Hulk and return to Asgard to stop Hela (Cate Blanchett) from bringing about Ragnarok, accompanied by Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo), Loki (Tom Hiddleston), and Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson).

Thor: Ragnarok is directed by Taika Waititi from a screenplay by Eric Pearson and Craig Kyle & Christopher L. Yost.

In honor of the release, Disney has been putting out all kinds of promotional clips from the bonus features (scroll down for that list). Here are several.

Waititi discusses the influence of Jack Kirby’s artwork (from the commentary):

Producer Kevin Feige also provides a tribute to Kirby (from bonus features):

  • Getting in Touch with Your Inner Thor – Director Taika Waititi has brought his unique sensibility and sense of humor to the film in a great many ways, but it is the evolution of Thor’s own sense of humor which stands out the most in the new film. This piece explores the impact Chris Hemsworth has made on the development of his widely-loved character and celebrates the mighty cast and crew who reveal the fun and hard work that went into assembling Thor’s eccentric counterparts.
  • Unstoppable Women: Hela & Valkyrie – This piece explores the strong female characters in Thor: Ragnarok, their importance in the MCU, their incredible casting, and their epic comic origins.

Apropos of nothing, the fun fact I learned from the PR was that “Traditionally, the Grandmaster in the comics is blue-skinned, but they thought people might tie it back to Jeff Goldblum’s character from Earth Girls Are Easy.” And what’s wrong with that, I’d like to know?

These special features are listed as digital exclusives, so I guess Disney’s gone back to making sure no home video package is actually complete.

Evolution of Thor and Hulk’s Bromance – We’ll examine this superhero friendship, which has spanned through several Marvel films. From their original Helicarrier fight match to the now iconic Hulk punch from Avengers 1, see how Marvel’s most powerful superheroes become the most extraordinary superhero buddies.

Additional Deleted Scenes – Travel to Asgard & Race to the Wormhole

Anyway, this seems like a nice set of extras, with some actual interesting information about the filmmaking, and I’m looking forward to seeing the movie again.
