This was probably my favourite episode of the season! Just so much fun and the jokes landed for the most part for me!
The voice acting for the series tends to be a mixed bag, but I think it was really good this week, with Hemsworth, Hiddleston, Dennings, and Green being the standouts! Clancy Brown was also hilarious as Surtur, and the voice actress for Captain Marvel sounded pretty good! Even Natalie Portman did alright, IMO.
Loved so many moments like the fight between Captain Marvel and Thor, Loki being so laidback, hanging out with Thor, and the cellphone being tiny in the palm of his hand, plus Surtur with the Statue of Liberty, and Fury getting injured by Korg!
When the fight went down between Captain Marvel and Thor, I was like, “How was he able to beat her?”, but the explanation made a lot of sense with holding back the full extent of her abilities.
Side note: I know he was listed in the credits, but I didn’t seem to notice Waititi’s Korg getting lines, unless it slipped past me. Even characters like Nebula and Grandmaster got a few lines.
By the end of the episode, I thought this is the first episode that goes on a positive note, then we got that cliffhanger, which I assume leads into next weeks’ installment.
