Oh, Asgard and oh, a guy with goggles

00:00:22,273 --> 00:00:26,110
Oh, and a British person

Marvel Studios, ooh
Marvel Studios
10
00:00:38,122 --> 00:00:40,124
Welcome to the director's commentary
11
00:00:40,208 --> 00:00:45,421
with me, the director
of Thor: Ragnarok, Taika Waititi.
12
00:00:46,005 --> 00:00:49,258
Oh, what is this mysterious world
we've entered into?
13
00:00:50,176 --> 00:00:54,639
It's a smoky place. Maybe it's, uh,
someone's lungs who's been smoking.
14
00:00:54,805 --> 00:00:57,767
Yes, the inside of the lungs
of the Marlboro Man
15
00:00:57,850 --> 00:00:59,227
we've found ourselves.
16
00:00:59,769 --> 00:01:03,022
Or it's a version of Innerspace
and there's a little person
17
00:01:03,189 --> 00:01:06,400
stuck to one of the lung glands.
18
00:01:06,859 --> 00:01:11,906
Good Lord, it's Joel Edgerton,
uh, in shackles.
19
00:01:12,490 --> 00:01:16,035
This is the kind of mystery
that I wanted to
20
00:01:16,619 --> 00:01:19,997
create with this film is that
as soon as you walk into this film
21
00:01:20,248 --> 00:01:23,501
and as you find yourself in this world,
you don't know where you are
22
00:01:23,668 --> 00:01:27,171
and we've got the hero
of the movie, of course, Thor,
23
00:01:27,713 --> 00:01:30,883
telling us everything
that's happened to him.
24
00:01:32,051 --> 00:01:36,597
Into this cage, where he
met you, skeleton man.
25
00:01:37,598 --> 00:01:39,392
So... Uh...
26
00:01:40,685 --> 00:01:42,287
How much longer do you think
we'll be here?
27
00:01:42,311 --> 00:01:46,190
I often do these director's commentaries
and I find them really hard because
28
00:01:46,357 --> 00:01:49,026
you end up just commenting on
what's on the screen.
29
00:01:49,193 --> 00:01:51,088
And so you'll find
the worst director's commentaries
30
00:01:51,112 --> 00:01:53,173
are like, "Oh, and then there's
a skeleton just fell down.
31
00:01:53,197 --> 00:01:55,283
"And then Thor's dangling on a chain
32
00:01:55,449 --> 00:01:57,743
"and he's turning around,
and then we introduce Surtur."
33
00:01:57,910 --> 00:02:00,413
Fun fact, though. Fun fact.
34
00:02:00,830 --> 00:02:03,749
The motion capture
for the character of Surtur,
35
00:02:03,916 --> 00:02:06,544
that big demon,
36
00:02:07,003 --> 00:02:10,298
was performed by
37
00:02:10,756 --> 00:02:14,802
one of the greatest actors in the world,
38
00:02:14,969 --> 00:02:18,514
not just New Zealand,
but the world, Taika Waititi.
39
00:02:18,973 --> 00:02:19,974
Um...
40
00:02:20,141 --> 00:02:22,351
Asgard up in flames, falling to ruins.
41
00:02:22,435 --> 00:02:26,981
For all you people who love fun facts,
I've got lots of them.
42
00:02:27,690 --> 00:02:30,943
That thing on his head
43
00:02:31,110 --> 00:02:33,779
is an ancient boomerang.
44
00:02:33,946 --> 00:02:36,866
We shot in Australia and we...
45
00:02:37,325 --> 00:02:42,663
We were given
the boomerang as a gift and
46
00:02:43,622 --> 00:02:49,086
we managed to work that and put that
as the crown for Surtur,
47
00:02:49,170 --> 00:02:50,463
the fire giant.
48
00:02:50,963 --> 00:02:53,299
All of that fire is real.
49
00:02:54,633 --> 00:02:58,512
I was on fire as I was doing
the motion capture.
50
00:02:58,679 --> 00:03:00,806
The voice, however... Um...
51
00:03:00,890 --> 00:03:01,932
Give it a second.
52
00:03:02,016 --> 00:03:05,603
Who can answer this before me,
nobody, it's Clancy Brown
53
00:03:06,020 --> 00:03:09,273
from one of my favorite movies,
Highlander.
54
00:03:09,857 --> 00:03:11,525
"There can be only one."
55
00:03:11,817 --> 00:03:13,027
So...
56
00:03:13,861 --> 00:03:18,115
We shot this movie almost
in its entirety in Australia,
57
00:03:18,199 --> 00:03:19,367
on the Gold Coast.
58
00:03:20,201 --> 00:03:24,038
And this environment is actually exactly
what it looks like down there.
59
00:03:24,663 --> 00:03:26,749
It's very hot, very smoky...
60
00:03:26,916 --> 00:03:30,795
- Okay, so where is it? This crown?
- This is my crown...
61
00:03:30,878 --> 00:03:34,548
Lots of people made
of embers and charcoal.
62
00:03:34,632 --> 00:03:36,151
Oh, that's a crown.
I thought it was a big eyebrow.
63
00:03:36,175 --> 00:03:38,803
So, Chris Hemsworth, what can I
tell you about Chris?
64
00:03:38,969 --> 00:03:42,306
I did all of the motion capture
for him in the movie as well.
65
00:03:42,473 --> 00:03:46,143
So every time you see him walking around
and talking, that's also me.
66
00:03:47,436 --> 00:03:50,064
I basically did all the characters
in the film.
67
00:03:50,398 --> 00:03:52,608
Me, me, me, me, me. It's all about me.
68
00:03:54,735 --> 00:03:57,988
All right, did you notice
the little demon guy
69
00:03:58,072 --> 00:03:59,407
in the corner there?
70
00:03:59,490 --> 00:04:03,619
If you didn't, press rewind and go back
to that high-angle shot.
71
00:04:03,786 --> 00:04:05,454
There's a little guy who's waking up.
72
00:04:06,664 --> 00:04:10,501
Wow, I'm really struck by
how good the CGI looks.
73
00:04:10,668 --> 00:04:14,630
Really amazing how cool this character
looks in a close up. Not him.
74
00:04:15,506 --> 00:04:17,758
Not this guy. The other guy.
75
00:04:18,217 --> 00:04:20,928
They got big Surtur, the big guy.
You know who I'm talking about.
76
00:04:21,095 --> 00:04:24,515
Watch this. Look at that.
Look at his teeth.
77
00:04:25,266 --> 00:04:27,476
How would he possibly brush his teeth?
78
00:04:28,102 --> 00:04:30,062
He'd go through so many toothbrushes,
wouldn't he?
79
00:04:30,938 --> 00:04:33,566
How are you guys enjoying this
director's commentary, by the way?
80
00:04:33,858 --> 00:04:39,572
On a scale of 1 to 1.1,
what would you give it?
81
00:04:40,281 --> 00:04:44,160
Whoa! What? He's got a hammer?
82
00:04:44,326 --> 00:04:46,036
I didn't know that.
83
00:04:47,496 --> 00:04:49,683
I did know that. That's one
of the things about directing films.
84
00:04:49,707 --> 00:04:51,834
You gotta know some stuff
about your characters.
85
00:04:51,917 --> 00:04:55,087
(GASPS) Oh, look at that dragon.

"Hammer of the Gods."
The most perfect song, isn't it?
88
00:05:09,310 --> 00:05:11,872
Perfect song. I remember growing up
with this song. Who would've thought
89
00:05:11,896 --> 00:05:15,065
as a young Taika growing up
in New Zealand in the '80s,
90
00:05:15,316 --> 00:05:16,525
if you were to say to me,
91
00:05:16,775 --> 00:05:19,987
"One day you're gonna use one
of the greatest songs ever,

00:05:20,321 --> 00:05:21,864

"that you'll be directing."
95
00:05:26,994 --> 00:05:30,080
I would've said, "My friend,
96
00:05:30,581 --> 00:05:32,750
"I know, because I can see the future."
97
00:05:34,668 --> 00:05:36,795
As a young boy, I could see the future.
98
00:05:37,713 --> 00:05:39,673
I've lost that power.
I've since lost that power.
99
00:05:39,757 --> 00:05:42,343
But I have the reverse power,
and I can see the past.
100
00:05:46,347 --> 00:05:47,640
I'll be honest,
101
00:05:48,182 --> 00:05:51,727
and I don't mean to take away
from this movie and how great it is
102
00:05:51,894 --> 00:05:54,438
or from myself as a director, but
103
00:05:54,605 --> 00:05:56,607
I'm not sure if I'll watch
this movie again
104
00:05:56,774 --> 00:05:58,001
after this director's commentary.
105
00:05:58,025 --> 00:06:01,946
I've seen it quite a few times and
106
00:06:03,030 --> 00:06:04,949
I just know everything that happens. Oh!
107
00:06:05,366 --> 00:06:08,246
I hope you concentrated on that.
All that fire that went into that skull.
108
00:06:08,327 --> 00:06:10,704
So all the power of Surtur
is now in that skull.
109
00:06:13,582 --> 00:06:16,144
Boy, I hope you guys have seen this film
before watching this commentary,

00:06:16,168 --> 00:06:18,379

00:06:21,507 --> 00:06:24,009
Oh... It's not Heimdall.
113
00:06:25,177 --> 00:06:27,638
Where's Heimdall? I don't know,
but look, there's Keith Urban,
114
00:06:27,805 --> 00:06:29,390
famous country singer.

That's Karl Urban. Karl Urban,
not Urban. Urban.
117
00:06:37,064 --> 00:06:40,526
He is a friend of mine from New Zealand.
He's a great New Zealand actor.
118
00:06:40,734 --> 00:06:44,280
You would've seen him in other films
that I'm not going to name check.
119
00:06:45,114 --> 00:06:46,407
All of these props...
120
00:06:47,074 --> 00:06:48,617
I hate guns, but look at that.
121
00:06:48,701 --> 00:06:50,595
He's got these two guns that are
straight out of the comic book.
122
00:06:50,619 --> 00:06:57,293
That character, Skurge, if you'd like
to know, is very famous in the comics.
123
00:06:58,210 --> 00:07:00,212
And those two props that he's got there,
124
00:07:00,379 --> 00:07:03,090
they feature heavily in his storyline
in the comics.
125
00:07:04,508 --> 00:07:07,303
Oh, and this dragon,
I've never met before.
126
00:07:07,761 --> 00:07:11,473
The first time I ever worked
with that dragon was on the set.
127
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,268
But we're still good friends
to this day.
128
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:20,941
I'm hoping to use her in another film
that I'm going to make soon,
129
00:07:22,067 --> 00:07:23,944
Manchester by the Sea: Part Two.
130
00:07:24,111 --> 00:07:26,864
Okay, here she comes.
131
00:07:27,031 --> 00:07:28,407
And ka-boom!
132
00:07:40,336 --> 00:07:41,337
Stay!
133
00:07:43,297 --> 00:07:46,383
Heimdall? I'm running short on options.
134
00:07:46,759 --> 00:07:48,927
- Heimdall?
- (RATTLING)
135
00:07:49,053 --> 00:07:50,971
Um... Skurge?
136
00:07:51,472 --> 00:07:54,016
WAITITI: Things are about to get crazy.
137
00:07:55,184 --> 00:07:58,312
Hey, fun fact number 78,
that Shake Weight is my Shake Weight.
138
00:07:58,604 --> 00:08:04,026
When I was doing Green Lantern
with Ryan Reynolds in New Orleans
139
00:08:04,568 --> 00:08:07,821
at about midnight in my hotel room,
I was watching infomercials
140
00:08:07,905 --> 00:08:11,325
and I bought that Shake Weight whilst
doing that movie.
141
00:08:12,951 --> 00:08:15,788
Cool DC-Marvel crossover
for you right there.
142
00:08:16,288 --> 00:08:17,915
And now that thing is in the movie.
143
00:08:18,165 --> 00:08:22,086
Oh, look. Go, Thor, go!
That dragon's gonna get you!
144
00:08:23,712 --> 00:08:25,023
Guess what, the movie's called Thor.
145
00:08:25,047 --> 00:08:27,647
He's not gonna be eaten by that dragon,
I can tell that right now.
146
00:08:27,841 --> 00:08:31,011
But, what? Look at that cool transition.
147
00:08:31,095 --> 00:08:33,597

149
00:08:37,267 --> 00:08:40,020
Oh, no, look at this. Oh, no, too close!
Oh! We're inside the logo.
150
00:08:40,104 --> 00:08:41,105
And...
151
00:08:42,398 --> 00:08:46,652
This is one of my favorite moments
of the opening.
152
00:08:47,820 --> 00:08:49,279
He slimed me.
153
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,200
That dragon...
154
00:08:53,909 --> 00:08:57,788
We went through about eight dragons
before we got it right.
155
00:08:58,497 --> 00:09:00,499
People will often say,
"No animals were harmed."
156
00:09:00,708 --> 00:09:02,751
No Earth animals were harmed
making this movie,
157
00:09:03,127 --> 00:09:06,171
but, yeah, we did kill a lot of dragons.
158
00:09:07,756 --> 00:09:09,636
Look out there,
your little sneak peak of Asgard
159
00:09:09,758 --> 00:09:12,195
which we're about to see.
We're about to go into Asgard itself.
160
00:09:12,219 --> 00:09:14,805
Right. Where is Heimdall?
161
00:09:15,347 --> 00:09:17,641
This is probably a great time
162
00:09:18,809 --> 00:09:20,811
to tell you that
163
00:09:21,770 --> 00:09:24,982
I've pretty much blocked out
164
00:09:25,315 --> 00:09:28,610
all of my memories
of shooting this film.
165
00:09:29,069 --> 00:09:32,823
So, if you're expecting to get
any incredible information out of me,
166
00:09:32,906 --> 00:09:37,870
like anecdotes or filmmaking tips,
167
00:09:38,245 --> 00:09:40,998
you have come to the wrong place.
168
00:09:41,498 --> 00:09:45,878
No, I don't think so. I think you'll
discover some good stuff in this.
169
00:09:48,297 --> 00:09:50,257
So,
170
00:09:50,340 --> 00:09:53,510
we were working
171
00:09:54,762 --> 00:09:56,638
with a great team.
172
00:09:56,722 --> 00:09:59,224
You know, this is the third Thor film.
173
00:09:59,349 --> 00:10:01,435
And when I came into this experience,
174
00:10:02,936 --> 00:10:04,104
you know,
175
00:10:04,730 --> 00:10:08,066
I had watched a lot of the Marvel films
and was a big fan of them
176
00:10:08,192 --> 00:10:14,072
and it's essentially the same team as
from the very first Iron Man,
177
00:10:14,490 --> 00:10:16,074
you know, still making these films.
178
00:10:16,158 --> 00:10:19,661
All the EPs, Kevin Feige,
179
00:10:20,954 --> 00:10:23,582
Lou D'Esposito, Victoria Alonso,
180
00:10:23,916 --> 00:10:27,336
and we had
a fantastic executive producer,
181
00:10:27,461 --> 00:10:29,379
Brad Winderbaum, working with me.
182
00:10:29,505 --> 00:10:30,839
I'm a trickster.
183
00:10:30,923 --> 00:10:32,174
So mischievous.
184
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,344
Sorry about that time
I turned you into a frog.
185
00:10:35,552 --> 00:10:36,887
It was a wonderful joke.
186
00:10:37,179 --> 00:10:39,765
'Twas indeed hilarious.
(CHUCKLES)
187
00:10:40,349 --> 00:10:43,143
WAITITI: Anthony Hopkins in this scene,
I told him,
188
00:10:43,227 --> 00:10:45,027
"You are going to be playing
Tom Hiddleston...
189
00:10:45,103 --> 00:10:46,814
We will build a big statue for you.
190
00:10:47,564 --> 00:10:49,608
Playing you." And he said,
"Okay, good."
191
00:10:49,691 --> 00:10:51,051
And he turned up in blue eyeliner.
192
00:10:51,860 --> 00:10:53,612
Matt Damon.
193
00:10:54,696 --> 00:10:59,743
I don't know if you guys recognize him
from We Bought a Zoo. That's him.
194
00:11:01,912 --> 00:11:06,250
It's a little crossover, a little
Marvel-We Bought a Zoo crossover
195
00:11:06,708 --> 00:11:07,960
thing going on.
196
00:11:08,377 --> 00:11:12,172
And that actor there doing his
very best impersonation of Chris
197
00:11:12,381 --> 00:11:14,424
is Chris's brother, Luke Hemsworth.
198
00:11:14,925 --> 00:11:18,637
So there's a little
Westworld-Thor crossover as well.
199
00:11:19,012 --> 00:11:25,060
There's Sam Neill, one of my players
from Hunt for the Wilderpeople.
200
00:11:25,477 --> 00:11:28,480
So there's a little
Wilderpeople-Taika Universe,
201
00:11:28,564 --> 00:11:29,982
Marvel Universe crossover.
202
00:11:30,482 --> 00:11:36,780
And that little blue kid was just
a local little blue kid that we found.
203
00:11:37,614 --> 00:11:40,826
Hard to find a blue kid
in Australia, that's for sure.
204
00:11:43,912 --> 00:11:46,206
Well, there's a play.
A play within a film.
205
00:11:46,540 --> 00:11:49,251
Bravo! Bravo! Well done. Bravo.
206
00:11:51,169 --> 00:11:55,340
A lot of the sets that you'll see
in this film were designed
207
00:11:56,717 --> 00:12:01,805
by our great production designers,
Dan Hennah and Ra Vincent.
208
00:12:02,306 --> 00:12:04,850
Ra has worked with me on
What We Do in the Shadows,
209
00:12:05,309 --> 00:12:06,602
my vampire film.
210
00:12:06,810 --> 00:12:10,856
A brilliant designer. And Dan,
and both of those guys were
211
00:12:11,690 --> 00:12:16,987
working with Peter Jackson throughout
all of the Rings trilogies as well.
212
00:12:17,154 --> 00:12:20,824
So they've got a great history
of design and really know their stuff.
213
00:12:22,326 --> 00:12:24,536
Later on in the film,
once we get to Sakaar,
214
00:12:24,661 --> 00:12:26,663
you'll see where they
came into their own
215
00:12:26,747 --> 00:12:30,125
with the design and construction
of these incredible sets.
216
00:12:30,667 --> 00:12:32,169
A big shout out to them.
217
00:12:33,128 --> 00:12:35,714
And actually in Sakaar is also where
you'll see some of these
218
00:12:35,797 --> 00:12:37,049
amazing costumes by
219
00:12:37,341 --> 00:12:42,429
Mayes Rubeo,
who is a fantastic designer.
220
00:12:43,221 --> 00:12:44,723
That hammer.
221
00:12:45,307 --> 00:12:50,687
That hammer that he's tossing around
like that weighs five million tons.
222
00:12:52,439 --> 00:12:55,150
That is how strong Chris is.
223
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:59,696
I mean, even though you can't
see his arms in this frame,
224
00:13:01,531 --> 00:13:03,784
you can feel them. You can still feel...
225
00:13:03,909 --> 00:13:05,953
Good God, look at them!
226
00:13:06,787 --> 00:13:08,080
Disgusting.
227
00:13:09,498 --> 00:13:11,333
Yes, besides I've been
rather busy myself.
228
00:13:11,416 --> 00:13:12,459
Watching theater.
229
00:13:12,542 --> 00:13:14,920
Board meetings,
and security council meetings...
230
00:13:15,003 --> 00:13:17,089
- You're really gonna make me do it?
- Do what?
231
00:13:19,341 --> 00:13:20,634
(WAITITI CHUCKLES)
232
00:13:20,717 --> 00:13:24,513
WAITITI: This pan' here, I don't know
who came up with this idea.
233
00:13:25,305 --> 00:13:27,516
I've heard a lot of people
take credit for this.
234
00:13:27,766 --> 00:13:28,809
And,
235
00:13:30,227 --> 00:13:32,938
although it was not my idea,
I'm gonna take credit for it, too.
236
00:13:33,021 --> 00:13:34,314
All right, I yield.
237
00:13:34,398 --> 00:13:36,733
This is something that I've been
talking about for years
238
00:13:36,817 --> 00:13:38,986
trying to do this moment
where Thor's holding Loki
239
00:13:39,069 --> 00:13:41,321
and the hammer's zooming
back towards them
240
00:13:41,488 --> 00:13:44,491
and he forces him to change
back into himself.
241
00:13:46,493 --> 00:13:48,328
Hey! Classic. Here comes Skurge.
242
00:13:48,412 --> 00:13:50,497
He's run all of that way,
down that bridge.
243
00:13:50,664 --> 00:13:54,209
He should've taken that Vespa
that we showed in that shot earlier.
244
00:13:55,293 --> 00:13:56,670
That's what I would've done.
245
00:13:59,381 --> 00:14:00,841
Just having a sip of coffee.
246
00:14:03,093 --> 00:14:06,972
Now, things really start
heating up in Thor. Ragnarok.
247
00:14:07,055 --> 00:14:09,224
You watch this. What's gonna happen?
I know.
248
00:14:09,474 --> 00:14:11,476
The brothers are gonna have to
team up and head to,
249
00:14:13,103 --> 00:14:14,229
you guessed it,

Earth.
252
00:14:19,651 --> 00:14:23,405
New York. Great place.
I've been there many times.
253
00:14:23,947 --> 00:14:24,948
That,
254
00:14:25,741 --> 00:14:29,327
I'm sorry to break the illusion,
is not New York.
255
00:14:29,870 --> 00:14:32,456
We shot that in Brisbane.
In Brisbane, Australia.
256
00:14:32,581 --> 00:14:34,142
Can't see into the future.
I'm not a witch.
257
00:14:34,166 --> 00:14:36,793
Which is the closest you'll get
to New York in Australia,
258
00:14:38,462 --> 00:14:43,258
both geographically
and also with how it looks.
259
00:14:43,341 --> 00:14:44,676
Ask him.

a picture with us?

00:14:50,932 --> 00:14:54,102
- they were a couple of street kids.
Sorry to 'near that Jane dumped you.
263
00:14:54,895 --> 00:14:56,438
She didn't dump me, you know.
264
00:14:57,189 --> 00:14:59,107
I dumped her. It was a mutual dumping.
265
00:15:01,860 --> 00:15:03,361
What's this? What are you doing?
266
00:15:03,445 --> 00:15:04,613

Well, if you're a fan of Doctor Strange,
271
00:15:22,839 --> 00:15:24,341
which I am not,
272
00:15:25,217 --> 00:15:27,677
you'll know that is
Doctor Strange's address
273
00:15:27,803 --> 00:15:29,763
and now we 're in Doctor Strange's house,
274
00:15:30,055 --> 00:15:34,226
the Sanctonium Santrarium
or whatever it's called.
275
00:15:35,352 --> 00:15:37,562
No, I know what it's called.
Sanctum Sanctorum.
276
00:15:38,105 --> 00:15:40,866
And I'm lying. Doctor Strange is one
of my favorite characters because

Benedict Cumbatch-ch-ch,
Benedict Cumbatcha,

Kombucha, Kombucha-batch,
a Batch O' Kombucha,
279
00:15:47,739 --> 00:15:50,033
is one of the greatest actors
280
00:15:50,575 --> 00:15:51,785
to have ever lived
281
00:15:52,786 --> 00:15:54,830
in Atlanta.
282
00:15:56,706 --> 00:15:59,459
He is one of my favorites. I love him.
283
00:16:00,919 --> 00:16:03,380
And this was the first thing
we shot actually.
284
00:16:03,630 --> 00:16:07,759
We shot this eight or nine months
before we started
285
00:16:07,884 --> 00:16:09,511
principal photography on Thor.
286
00:16:10,178 --> 00:16:12,222
We knew we wanted this scene and
287
00:16:12,389 --> 00:16:15,809
Benedict was shooting Doctor Strange
in London, so we went across there
288
00:16:15,892 --> 00:16:18,812
with Chris and we shot this scene
289
00:16:18,895 --> 00:16:21,773
and it was my first time working
with either of these guys
290
00:16:21,982 --> 00:16:25,902
and especially with Chris,
and it was at that moment
291
00:16:26,069 --> 00:16:28,738
working with Chris, I knew I'm doomed.
292
00:16:29,281 --> 00:16:30,407
Take a seat.
293
00:16:32,659 --> 00:16:35,096
WAITITI: All of these little tricks are
all in-camera, you know.
294
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:39,708
So, it's not all about big,
crazy special effects with CGI
295
00:16:40,375 --> 00:16:42,586
And computer generated things.
It's, no...
296
00:16:42,752 --> 00:16:44,352
Sometimes you can just do all of your...
297
00:16:44,838 --> 00:16:47,191
Someone was just lying down
on the floor there with that beer.
298
00:16:47,215 --> 00:16:50,260
Just switched it over for him
and just out of shot.
299
00:16:51,219 --> 00:16:52,859
And you'll notice every time
he transports
300
00:16:52,929 --> 00:16:54,764
to different parts of the room
301
00:16:55,599 --> 00:16:59,019
it's just, we just did that in-camera,
meaning, you know, there's no...
302
00:16:59,186 --> 00:17:00,986
Well, that's a special effect
there obviously.
303
00:17:01,104 --> 00:17:03,148
'Cause beer doesn't do
that traditionally.
304
00:17:05,233 --> 00:17:06,610
Unless I want it to.

So watch this. Here we go. Oh, no, wait.
306
00:17:11,364 --> 00:17:14,451
Oh, wait. Wait. Here we go.
307
00:17:15,202 --> 00:17:18,038
I'm wasting time here because this is
just conversation, I mean.
308
00:17:18,205 --> 00:17:20,874
I got no more facts about, I mean...
309
00:17:21,374 --> 00:17:22,500
Benedict.
310
00:17:23,418 --> 00:17:24,794
What can I tell you about him?
311
00:17:25,587 --> 00:17:28,590
He's got a strange symmetrical face,
doesn't he?
312
00:17:29,257 --> 00:17:30,550
Very symmetrical.
313
00:17:31,593 --> 00:17:35,222
I'd like to do an experiment
and just flop the shot just to see.
314
00:17:35,555 --> 00:17:37,349
But it does look exactly the same.
315
00:17:37,682 --> 00:17:39,684
Gladly. He's in Norway.
316
00:17:39,768 --> 00:17:41,228
And of course, behind him...
317
00:17:42,187 --> 00:17:43,998
There are all these Easter eggs
throughout the film.
318
00:17:44,022 --> 00:17:48,193
And Easter eggs, I've learned,
are not actually Easter eggs.
319
00:17:48,360 --> 00:17:49,361
They're, um...
320
00:17:50,028 --> 00:17:51,988
Look at that! All in-camera.
321
00:17:52,447 --> 00:17:53,448
See?
322
00:17:54,115 --> 00:17:58,453
Sometimes you don't need
a very huge budget to make a movie.
323
00:17:58,620 --> 00:18:00,080
Unless you're making this movie.
324
00:18:00,747 --> 00:18:02,749
The, um...
325
00:18:02,916 --> 00:18:05,502
The Easter eggs, I found out,
are little things from comics
326
00:18:05,585 --> 00:18:07,462
and from other films and stuff that are,
327
00:18:07,712 --> 00:18:10,882
you know, for the fans
and people who know this universe.
328
00:18:11,883 --> 00:18:13,819
They'll see them and they'll say,
"Oh, what, yeah,
329
00:18:13,843 --> 00:18:16,388
"did you see that they had
the Drinks Tray of Knowledge
330
00:18:17,806 --> 00:18:19,724
"from this other, you know, comic run?"
331
00:18:19,849 --> 00:18:23,478
Or, like, "Did you see they had
the Mirror of Disappointment
332
00:18:23,812 --> 00:18:26,815
"from Doctor Strange, Episode 16?"
333
00:18:27,148 --> 00:18:28,483
Episode? Issue.
334
00:18:30,360 --> 00:18:32,654
So, I'll be honest.
335
00:18:32,904 --> 00:18:36,408
If there are any Easter eggs
in this movie, I would not really know
336
00:18:36,533 --> 00:18:37,534
what they are.
337
00:18:38,410 --> 00:18:40,054
There are a couple here and there,
you know.
338
00:18:40,078 --> 00:18:41,913
There's, wait a minute,
once we get to Sakaar,
339
00:18:42,205 --> 00:18:43,206
but, um...
340
00:18:43,540 --> 00:18:45,875
They're for you.
I don't know anything about
341
00:18:46,167 --> 00:18:48,420
any Easter eggs in this scene.
342
00:18:49,045 --> 00:18:52,424
Tom did that stunt all by himself.
343
00:18:53,383 --> 00:18:54,384
Not.
344
00:18:54,718 --> 00:18:57,429
- Thank you very much for your help.
- Good luck.
345
00:18:57,512 --> 00:19:00,140
Now things are about
to get really intense.
346
00:19:00,765 --> 00:19:02,517
You think you're some kind of sorcerer?
347
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:05,854
I don't wanna ruin it for you,
but look at that. Whoa!
348
00:19:05,937 --> 00:19:08,523
Now they're in a field in Norway.
349
00:19:11,651 --> 00:19:12,652
Now,
350
00:19:13,570 --> 00:19:16,948
I don't know how much I'm allowed
to say, but I'll tell you this.
351
00:19:17,198 --> 00:19:21,036
That is not Anthony Hopkins
urinating off a cliff.
352
00:19:21,369 --> 00:19:24,329
He's just standing there, even though I
know it looks a little bit like it.
353
00:19:28,376 --> 00:19:32,505
Not fun fact, this was not shot
in Norway. This was shot in Atlanta
354
00:19:33,214 --> 00:19:36,009
where they do not have cliffs
like that, overlooking the ocean.
355
00:19:36,718 --> 00:19:38,470
But, you know, hey,
356
00:19:39,387 --> 00:19:42,015
if I hadn't said that, would you know?
Would you have known?
357
00:19:42,766 --> 00:19:43,767
Maybe.
358
00:19:45,018 --> 00:19:47,854
This was a scene that we actually
359
00:19:48,104 --> 00:19:51,483
kind of ended up reshooting
or shooting a different way.
360
00:19:51,566 --> 00:19:54,686
I don't like saying reshooting, but this
was part of the additional photography
361
00:19:54,778 --> 00:20:00,033
and originally we had Odin
living in New York
362
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,243
and the boys went and found him
in New York, but
363
00:20:02,410 --> 00:20:04,954
just for one reason or another,
that didn't work out
364
00:20:05,497 --> 00:20:07,290
for the story we were telling
365
00:20:07,582 --> 00:20:11,294
and we ended up redoing a lot
of the scene here.
366
00:20:11,461 --> 00:20:14,547
And part of the reason we redid this was
367
00:20:15,256 --> 00:20:17,050
you know, we needed
some expositional stuff.
368
00:20:17,175 --> 00:20:20,178
We needed a few different lines
of dialogue to explain
369
00:20:20,303 --> 00:20:24,724
certain things, but mainly to explain
Hela and who she is.
370
00:20:24,808 --> 00:20:28,144
Cate's character, who's
about to come. Spoiler!
371
00:20:28,686 --> 00:20:29,979
Cate Blanchett's in the movie.
372
00:20:30,271 --> 00:20:32,857
No, I've stopped Ragnarok.
I put an end to Surtur.
373
00:20:33,650 --> 00:20:34,651
No.
374
00:20:35,276 --> 00:20:37,070
It has already begun. She's coming.
375
00:20:37,487 --> 00:20:41,616
WAITITI: So, this is usually
the point where
376
00:20:42,367 --> 00:20:45,495
I run out of things to say
in directors' commentaries, but, no,
377
00:20:46,204 --> 00:20:47,914
Thor: Ragnarok is too special.
378
00:20:48,248 --> 00:20:51,751
This is the point where I
ramp things up,
379
00:20:52,585 --> 00:20:55,296
where things just get crazy
380
00:20:55,672 --> 00:20:57,858
and I start telling you stuff
that I've never told anyone.
381
00:20:57,882 --> 00:20:59,300
Not about the movie, about myself.
382
00:20:59,717 --> 00:21:01,845
I have dreams and nightmares,
383
00:21:01,970 --> 00:21:04,530
and sometimes I wake up in the middle
of the night in cold sweats
384
00:21:04,973 --> 00:21:07,600
just not knowing what
I'm doing with my life.
385
00:21:09,144 --> 00:21:11,905
Ugh! This is not really the time
or place to tell you guys this stuff,
386
00:21:11,938 --> 00:21:14,524
so maybe I'll stick to the movie, but
387
00:21:15,233 --> 00:21:18,403
I just want you to know
that even heroes like me...
388
00:21:18,778 --> 00:21:21,197
Legends, absolute legends,
like me, you know,
389
00:21:21,489 --> 00:21:23,992
that we are also
tormented souls, you know,
390
00:21:24,075 --> 00:21:29,330
and a lot of this creativity, I think,
comes from my torment
391
00:21:29,998 --> 00:21:33,042
and those nightmares
and those cold sweats.
392
00:21:35,587 --> 00:21:40,049
Not that this is a great example
of where we used a lot of concept art
393
00:21:40,133 --> 00:21:42,510
and visual development, but
394
00:21:44,220 --> 00:21:46,806
a big shout out has to go to Andy Park
395
00:21:46,890 --> 00:21:50,935
and his team at Marvel for a lot of the,
396
00:21:51,144 --> 00:21:54,314
a lot of the drawings and conceptual art
397
00:21:54,814 --> 00:21:58,067
that we took as great inspiration for
398
00:21:58,318 --> 00:22:01,196
costume design and for set design
and things like that.
399
00:22:01,446 --> 00:22:02,864
And you're about to see
400
00:22:03,781 --> 00:22:06,451
the villain of the film turning up and
401
00:22:07,494 --> 00:22:11,789
the costume and the look for her
that was... A huge part of that
402
00:22:13,082 --> 00:22:16,169
has to go to Andy Park
and also Ryan Meinerding.
403
00:22:16,586 --> 00:22:20,048
They are two great painters,
two great artists
404
00:22:20,298 --> 00:22:22,717
who work at Marvel and have worked
there for a long time.
405
00:22:23,468 --> 00:22:26,679
We also had, and this scene
in particular, is one
406
00:22:27,180 --> 00:22:29,599
that was storyboarded really well.
407
00:22:29,807 --> 00:22:34,729
A lot of the scenes, and definitely
the action sequences in the film
408
00:22:34,979 --> 00:22:40,985
were storyboarded by
Todd Harris and Michael Jackson.
409
00:22:41,277 --> 00:22:42,320
Now,
410
00:22:43,112 --> 00:22:45,490
I know it sounds crazy,
411
00:22:46,616 --> 00:22:47,867
but it's true.
412
00:22:48,034 --> 00:22:50,795
You look in the credits at the end
of the movie, you'll see the names.
413
00:22:50,870 --> 00:22:54,290
Todd Harris and, yes, Michael Jackson.
414
00:22:54,624 --> 00:22:59,170
He was an incredible artist and,
turns out, still is.
415
00:23:01,172 --> 00:23:06,344
So, this here is the introduction
of one of my favorite people,
416
00:23:07,387 --> 00:23:09,430
not only as an actor,
but also as a villain.
417
00:23:11,599 --> 00:23:15,353
Cate Winslet, I mean, Blanchett.
418
00:23:15,603 --> 00:23:17,855
So, she...
419
00:23:18,940 --> 00:23:21,651
She was one of the first people
to sign on to this film.
420
00:23:23,278 --> 00:23:25,488
Yeah, I tricked her into doing it.
421
00:23:26,614 --> 00:23:31,452
But such are my powers of convincibility
422
00:23:31,953 --> 00:23:35,373
that she just took one look at me
and said, "I'm in. I'll do it.
423
00:23:35,915 --> 00:23:37,125
"You're my hero."
424
00:23:37,500 --> 00:23:39,210
Perhaps we can come to an arrangement.
425
00:23:40,169 --> 00:23:44,007
This, all the suit
and everything, is loosely
426
00:23:45,133 --> 00:23:48,678
inspired by the comic, the suit that
Hela wore in the comics.
427
00:23:49,554 --> 00:23:54,475
The weapons that she uses,
for those Thor fans out there,
428
00:23:54,559 --> 00:23:58,104
I am confirming right now, yes, they are
429
00:23:58,855 --> 00:24:04,736
based on Gorr's weapons
from the God of Thunder run.
430
00:24:05,528 --> 00:24:07,113
Gorr being the...
431
00:24:08,281 --> 00:24:10,241
The dark, the God killer
432
00:24:10,950 --> 00:24:12,994
villain in that run.
433
00:24:13,620 --> 00:24:16,998
And this here is a very sad moment
for people who like tools.
434
00:24:17,373 --> 00:24:20,627
I bet there are a lot of builders
out there, a lot of carpenters. Yeah.
435
00:24:21,836 --> 00:24:23,630
Hearts just broke right then.
436
00:24:24,047 --> 00:24:29,218
So, a perfectly good hammer
being crushed by Cate Blanchett.
437
00:24:31,554 --> 00:24:36,768
And now we see her transforming
into more of the classic Hela look.
438
00:24:37,101 --> 00:24:40,355
That's her headpiece there.
They're antlers.
439
00:24:41,689 --> 00:24:42,690
Which,
440
00:24:43,733 --> 00:24:44,734
let's be honest,
441
00:24:44,859 --> 00:24:47,362
would make it very hard to go
through conventional doorways.
442
00:24:48,196 --> 00:24:49,614
Loki!
443
00:24:49,781 --> 00:24:52,116
But, luckily for Hela,
444
00:24:53,034 --> 00:24:54,994
she avoids doorways.
445
00:24:57,622 --> 00:25:01,000
Luckily in Asgard,
doorways are very wide.
446
00:25:02,377 --> 00:25:06,005
So, what's great
about this film, I think
447
00:25:06,172 --> 00:25:09,759
is just seeing Thor getting
his ass kicked all the time.
448
00:25:11,052 --> 00:25:14,347
He's a very strong character, but we
wanted to put him through his paces.
449
00:25:14,472 --> 00:25:16,432
We wanted to strip him down
450
00:25:18,017 --> 00:25:20,687
and, you know, just really, like,
451
00:25:21,312 --> 00:25:23,731
take him back to being powerless
452
00:25:23,815 --> 00:25:28,236
and having to go up against
someone more formidable
453
00:25:28,486 --> 00:25:29,946
and dangerous than he's ever met.
454
00:25:30,029 --> 00:25:33,199
Now we see Hela absorbing
her power from Asgard.
455
00:25:33,282 --> 00:25:36,327
She gets her power from Asgard
and now she's in her green suit.
456
00:25:36,411 --> 00:25:39,580
And this is the classic Hela look
from the comics.
457
00:25:39,872 --> 00:25:42,875
The Goddess of Death is back in Asgard.
458
00:25:43,459 --> 00:25:44,544
I'm Hela.
459
00:25:44,627 --> 00:25:47,380
So, those people that she just killed,
460
00:25:48,089 --> 00:25:49,966
two of the Warriors Three,
461
00:25:50,717 --> 00:25:53,136
Fandral and Volstagg,
462
00:25:54,470 --> 00:25:57,640
played by Zachary Levi
and Ray Stevenson.
463
00:25:59,892 --> 00:26:04,897
Now we see the teaming up of the villain
and her right-hand man.
464
00:26:05,189 --> 00:26:10,486
So, Hela and Skurge.
And Hela is now in Asgard.
465
00:26:11,112 --> 00:26:12,864
Well, stone me crows, mate.
466
00:26:13,364 --> 00:26:15,926
What is gonna happen next?
I'll tell you what's gonna happen next.
467
00:26:15,950 --> 00:26:17,428
We're gonna throw focus to the sword,
468
00:26:17,452 --> 00:26:22,665
then we're gonna boom up and crane in,
past the sword, and into outer space,
469
00:26:23,082 --> 00:26:26,961
and zoom-zam-zing, off we go
470
00:26:27,545 --> 00:26:29,255
through the cosmos.
471
00:26:30,298 --> 00:26:33,468
And this is really where
all the design stuff
472
00:26:33,551 --> 00:26:35,052
starts really taking off
473
00:26:35,136 --> 00:26:38,222
with this new world that
we find ourselves on.
474
00:26:39,265 --> 00:26:40,516
Sakaar.
475
00:26:46,397 --> 00:26:47,732
Now, Sakaar is
476
00:26:49,233 --> 00:26:51,652
a sort of collection point,
a meeting point for
477
00:26:52,904 --> 00:26:55,448
a myriad of wormholes and
478
00:26:55,782 --> 00:26:57,742
it's like a dumping ground
for the universe
479
00:26:57,825 --> 00:26:59,219
where you find all the lost things,
480
00:26:59,243 --> 00:27:01,537
all the things that disappear
in outer space.
481
00:27:01,621 --> 00:27:03,766
Well, they end up in wormholes
somewhere along the line
482
00:27:03,790 --> 00:27:06,667
and a lot of it ends up here in Sakaar.
483
00:27:06,793 --> 00:27:08,753
So it's like a place where...
484
00:27:09,003 --> 00:27:11,047
It's like a giant junk planet
485
00:27:11,130 --> 00:27:14,967
and life is cheap and people
486
00:27:15,927 --> 00:27:18,596
scavenge for whatever falls
from the sky.
487
00:27:18,971 --> 00:27:20,515
These gifts from God.
488
00:27:20,598 --> 00:27:23,893
And one of these gifts
to the people of Sakaar is Thor.
489
00:27:24,143 --> 00:27:25,311
So,
490
00:27:25,686 --> 00:27:27,188
Thor's now found himself here
491
00:27:27,313 --> 00:27:33,361
and all of this world, we took
a huge amount of inspiration from
492
00:27:33,444 --> 00:27:37,824
Jack Kirby, the great artist,
the king of comic art.
493
00:27:39,325 --> 00:27:43,204
So, this design here, that ship,
is a Kirby spaceship.
494
00:27:44,789 --> 00:27:49,126
You know, we made it that it breaks up
into these different shapes.
495
00:27:49,418 --> 00:27:50,920
There are other things.
496
00:27:51,963 --> 00:27:55,800
Other little, you know, I guess,
Kirby Easter eggs throughout the film
497
00:27:55,883 --> 00:27:59,762
where you'll see certain designs
or certain shapes and things like...
498
00:27:59,887 --> 00:28:02,765
For instance, later on, someone has
499
00:28:03,182 --> 00:28:06,352
a gun, a laser rifle, which is actually
500
00:28:07,395 --> 00:28:10,898
a space station that
Kirby drew many years ago.
501
00:28:11,107 --> 00:28:13,693
And we took that design
and turned it into a weapon.
502
00:28:15,069 --> 00:28:17,405
So, you find throughout
this entire world
503
00:28:17,488 --> 00:28:20,366
there's all this Kirby art everywhere.
504
00:28:20,575 --> 00:28:25,079
And it made me really happy
to be bringing his,
505
00:28:25,580 --> 00:28:29,292
yeah, his spirit
and his designs into the film
506
00:28:29,667 --> 00:28:32,169
because I've been a huge fan of his
ever since I was a kid.
507
00:28:32,461 --> 00:28:35,882
And it's really, not only the shapes,
but also the colors as well.
508
00:28:36,257 --> 00:28:38,426
These vibrant colors and these mixes of
509
00:28:39,969 --> 00:28:44,181
you know, just cool, amazing,
strong lines and bold colors.
510
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,561
Now we have the introduction of
511
00:28:51,772 --> 00:28:56,193
the most wonderful character, Valkyrie,
512
00:28:56,569 --> 00:28:57,945
played by Tessa Thompson.
513
00:28:59,322 --> 00:29:01,240
And usually in these movies...
514
00:29:01,407 --> 00:29:02,408
He's mine.
515
00:29:02,825 --> 00:29:05,286
These characters come in
and they just kick everyone's ass
516
00:29:05,369 --> 00:29:08,247
and they look really cool, and we wanted
to do something different
517
00:29:08,331 --> 00:29:11,167
where the introduction
of this character was...
518
00:29:11,876 --> 00:29:13,336
Wait!
519
00:29:13,419 --> 00:29:16,964
...really unpredictable
and we showed that she was...
520
00:29:18,716 --> 00:29:22,887
And also with this movie,
that it wasn't gonna be the same as,
521
00:29:23,471 --> 00:29:24,764
as every other movie, you know.
522
00:29:25,473 --> 00:29:29,226
She falls off that gang plank.
She's a drinker. She's...
523
00:29:30,645 --> 00:29:35,358
She is more of a kind of renegade,
just like, you know...
524
00:29:37,151 --> 00:29:39,570
She's found herself living
on Sakaar somehow.
525
00:29:39,862 --> 00:29:41,072
And one thing you'll find
526
00:29:41,697 --> 00:29:45,451
when we arrive in Sakaar,
the music changed quite a lot.
527
00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:50,247
And we introduced a lot more
of these synthesizers and
528
00:29:50,998 --> 00:29:54,126
you know, it's more
of that electronic feel
529
00:29:54,210 --> 00:29:57,546
to the soundtrack
and to the compositions.
530
00:29:57,672 --> 00:29:58,673
And
531
00:29:59,256 --> 00:30:00,675
that is...
532
00:30:01,467 --> 00:30:05,137
All of that was made by
Mark Mothersbaugh, who's
533
00:30:06,055 --> 00:30:08,099
a great musician and composer who...
534
00:30:09,225 --> 00:30:12,228
When I first talked to him
about doing this job,
535
00:30:14,021 --> 00:30:17,108
he said, "I want these
536
00:30:17,191 --> 00:30:20,277
"old synthesizers and this,
kind of, really different feel,
537
00:30:20,361 --> 00:30:21,862
"but I also wanna keep it
538
00:30:21,946 --> 00:30:25,950
"not too modern. I want it
to feel like this kind of old,
539
00:30:26,784 --> 00:30:29,286
"sort of, this Jean-Michel Jarre
kind of soundscapes
540
00:30:29,370 --> 00:30:31,580
"and when we get to Sakaar."
541
00:30:31,914 --> 00:30:35,001
So he went and pulled out
all these old Moogs and stuff,
542
00:30:35,084 --> 00:30:39,880
one synth that Robert Moog
543
00:30:39,964 --> 00:30:43,009
had actually given to him
many, many years ago.
544
00:30:43,092 --> 00:30:45,302
And also all these
different synthesizers
545
00:30:45,428 --> 00:30:47,471
and all this cool electronic sound.
546
00:30:47,722 --> 00:30:50,641
It's all done
on these old analog synths.
547
00:30:52,059 --> 00:30:55,563
It's one of my favorite things
of the movie.
548
00:30:55,646 --> 00:30:58,149
One of my favorite elements of the movie
is this music.
549
00:30:58,482 --> 00:31:00,735
Then we started weaving it together
550
00:31:00,818 --> 00:31:04,905
between the Sakaarian soundscape
551
00:31:05,156 --> 00:31:08,576
and the Asgardian music,
which is more traditionally a score.
552
00:31:08,868 --> 00:31:12,496
We started interweaving them
throughout the film.
553
00:31:12,705 --> 00:31:15,541
The Asgardian music might start sounding
554
00:31:15,916 --> 00:31:17,716
like it's got a few more synths
in it as well.
555
00:31:17,793 --> 00:31:20,463
And we start blending
the two worlds together.
556
00:31:28,345 --> 00:31:29,555
(SIGHS) Okay. Now,
557
00:31:32,141 --> 00:31:34,060
this scene here
558
00:31:34,810 --> 00:31:37,855
is Hela doing a long speech
559
00:31:39,065 --> 00:31:43,986
and then, really showing
her powers and just
560
00:31:45,029 --> 00:31:47,865
why, I guess, they call her
the Goddess of Death.
561
00:31:47,948 --> 00:31:51,786
This was something,
when we were writing this.
562
00:31:51,911 --> 00:31:55,164
We were talking to Eric Pearson,
the writer,
563
00:31:56,874 --> 00:32:01,003
and this was something also that
Craig Kyle and Chris Yost
564
00:32:01,253 --> 00:32:02,463
and Stephanie Folsom...
565
00:32:04,673 --> 00:32:07,176
Everyone agreed. And everyone
566
00:32:07,259 --> 00:32:10,721
right from the very beginning,
wanted to make her
567
00:32:11,263 --> 00:32:15,184
the most formidable villain
that we've ever seen
568
00:32:15,351 --> 00:32:18,104
and most definitely
that Thor's ever encountered.
569
00:32:18,687 --> 00:32:21,774
This was the scene here really
where we wanted to show that.
570
00:32:24,568 --> 00:32:27,363
Yeah, I think we've done that job.
We've pulled that off.
571
00:32:27,863 --> 00:32:31,408
What she, what the character does
in the scene,
572
00:32:32,743 --> 00:32:34,662
I really loved seeing Cate do that,
573
00:32:34,745 --> 00:32:37,331
seeing a female villain do this,
but also
574
00:32:38,332 --> 00:32:39,601
something right from the beginning
575
00:32:39,625 --> 00:32:41,585
when I was talking to Cate
about doing this role,
576
00:32:42,128 --> 00:32:45,464
she had said, "I would just love to do
577
00:32:45,548 --> 00:32:49,385
"some cool action, some fun things,
like I wanna punch a few people."
578
00:32:52,346 --> 00:32:55,474
Yeah, I think we've kind of
gone further than that, but...
579
00:32:56,475 --> 00:33:00,187
This whole scene, all these
amazing stunts and all this action
580
00:33:00,437 --> 00:33:04,650
was all choreographed by Ben Cooke,
who's our stunt coordinator
581
00:33:04,984 --> 00:33:07,903
and also our second unit director.
582
00:33:09,029 --> 00:33:11,949
So, now you'll see
where he's really come in
583
00:33:12,158 --> 00:33:16,287
and put his mark on this whole sequence.
584
00:33:26,213 --> 00:33:29,800
Of course, we mustn't ever forget,
585
00:33:31,844 --> 00:33:37,850
a lot of this great stunt work
that we see Hela doing
586
00:33:37,933 --> 00:33:42,980
is also performed by the great Zoe Bell
587
00:33:43,063 --> 00:33:44,773
who is a New Zealand stunt woman.
588
00:33:44,857 --> 00:33:46,859
She's done a lot of work
on Tarantino films.
589
00:33:49,153 --> 00:33:50,905
She's one of the best in the biz.
590
00:33:51,113 --> 00:33:54,450
She came in and doubled Cate
for a lot of the film.
591
00:33:54,700 --> 00:33:58,329
So, yeah, some of these amazing moves
that you see are performed by her.
592
00:33:58,871 --> 00:34:00,664
She's a great friend
593
00:34:00,748 --> 00:34:03,500
and a great performer
and a really great actor, too.
594
00:34:08,255 --> 00:34:13,761
Now here, we're about to see the demise
of the third of the Warriors Three.
595
00:34:14,595 --> 00:34:17,514
Is he though?
Is he one of the Warriors Three?
596
00:34:18,182 --> 00:34:19,767
He is one of the Warriors Three.
597
00:34:20,851 --> 00:34:23,145
So, this is...
598
00:34:25,189 --> 00:34:26,649
This is Hogun,
599
00:34:27,149 --> 00:34:29,443
played by Tadanobu Asano.
600
00:34:30,819 --> 00:34:33,864
I've loved this guy
for many years from afar.
601
00:34:34,031 --> 00:34:35,491
He's never known.
602
00:34:35,824 --> 00:34:38,035
I just never felt brave enough
to tell him.
603
00:34:38,577 --> 00:34:39,828
From New Zealand.
604
00:34:43,374 --> 00:34:46,126
Again, this is what Ragnarok is.
605
00:34:46,210 --> 00:34:49,797
It's the destruction of everything
you've known and come to love.
606
00:34:52,758 --> 00:34:56,178
We got rid of the Warriors Three
within the first half an hour
607
00:34:56,262 --> 00:34:57,388
of the film.
608
00:34:59,139 --> 00:35:00,224
Oh, this mysterious figure!
609
00:35:00,307 --> 00:35:02,147
What's he doing?
He's stolen the Bifrost sword!
610
00:35:02,476 --> 00:35:04,436
Now we find ourselves
in outer space, and this was
611
00:35:05,896 --> 00:35:08,190
an audience favorite
and a studio favorite.
612
00:35:08,274 --> 00:35:09,775
This little sequence,
613
00:35:10,609 --> 00:35:13,904
this little ride,
his introduction to Sakaar.
614
00:35:15,072 --> 00:35:16,657
We were very fortunate enough
615
00:35:16,740 --> 00:35:19,827
to get this iconic piece of music.
616
00:35:21,829 --> 00:35:24,140
I can't remember what it's called,
that's how iconic it is.
617
00:35:24,164 --> 00:35:27,835
But it's from
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.

(SWEEPING MUSIC PLAYING)
619

Surrounded by cosmic gateways...
620
00:35:32,798 --> 00:35:36,427
if you know that movie,
then you'll know this bit of music.
621
00:35:38,137 --> 00:35:40,514
Gene Wilder. Love Gene Wilder.
622
00:35:40,889 --> 00:35:42,349
I take Chris...

00:35:42,516 --> 00:35:47,146
Chris Hemsworth is the Gene Wilder
of Byron Bay in Australia.
624
00:35:47,313 --> 00:35:49,291
- FEMALE ANNOUNCER: You are loved.
- What the hell?
625
00:35:49,315 --> 00:35:52,359
And no one loves you more
than the Grandmaster.
626
00:35:52,735 --> 00:35:54,236
He is the original.
627
00:35:54,528 --> 00:35:56,655
The first lost and the first found.
628
00:35:57,197 --> 00:36:00,909
The creator of Sakaar
and father of the Contest of Champions.
629
00:36:01,535 --> 00:36:03,370
Where once you were nothing,
630
00:36:03,746 --> 00:36:05,289
now you are something.
631
00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:08,542
You are the property of the Grandmaster.
632
00:36:09,209 --> 00:36:10,669
Congratulations.

You will meet the Grandmaster
in five seconds.

Prepare yourself.
635
00:36:18,010 --> 00:36:19,511
Prepare yourself.
636
00:36:20,804 --> 00:36:24,350
You are now meeting the Grandmaster.

639
00:36:35,861 --> 00:36:39,239
Jeff Goldblum.
640
00:36:39,865 --> 00:36:43,619
So, Jeff Goldblum
is playing the Grandmaster.
641
00:36:44,370 --> 00:36:46,580
Jeff has become
a very dear friend to me.
642
00:36:47,664 --> 00:36:51,418
But not as dear
as that person on the left there.
643
00:36:52,169 --> 00:36:54,922
Rachel House, who has been
in most of my movies.
644
00:36:55,089 --> 00:36:56,507
She was in Eagle vs Shark.
645
00:36:56,673 --> 00:36:58,592
She's in Boy,
646
00:37:00,094 --> 00:37:02,304
playing the fantastic Aunty Gracey,
647
00:37:02,471 --> 00:37:04,390
and in Hunt for the Wilderpeople.
648
00:37:04,556 --> 00:37:07,476
She plays Paula,
the social welfare worker
649
00:37:07,559 --> 00:37:11,063
who's on the hunt for Ricky Baker.
650
00:37:12,272 --> 00:37:15,526
I love Rachel, I think she's just
one of the most versatile actors.
651
00:37:15,651 --> 00:37:19,446
She plays the grandmother in Moana.
652
00:37:19,947 --> 00:37:22,533
She's really... She's just so...
653
00:37:23,242 --> 00:37:26,703
She's so good and consistent and funny,
654
00:37:28,163 --> 00:37:30,416
and I'll keep trying to put her
in all my movies.
655
00:37:33,919 --> 00:37:35,170
Pay this lady.
656
00:37:35,295 --> 00:37:37,047
Just wait a damn minute!
657
00:37:38,173 --> 00:37:41,301
WAITITI: I don't know if you noticed
that thing that is on Thor's neck.
658
00:37:41,468 --> 00:37:43,971
That tiny little coin-shaped thing,
that thing there.
659
00:37:44,138 --> 00:37:46,348
It's called an obedience disk
and that comes from
660
00:37:47,266 --> 00:37:51,103
the comics, from the Planet Hulk comics.
661
00:37:51,979 --> 00:37:53,814
Essentially, what that does is,
662
00:37:53,897 --> 00:37:56,483
it's like when Thor
loses his hammer on Earth,
663
00:37:56,942 --> 00:37:59,570
it takes away all his power
and puts him on more of
664
00:37:59,736 --> 00:38:02,656
an even playing field
with everyone else on Sakaar.
665
00:38:02,823 --> 00:38:05,868
So, not only does he not have
his hammer but he's also
666
00:38:06,034 --> 00:38:10,205
been rendered powerless
by this obedience disk.
667
00:38:11,123 --> 00:38:13,375
The Grandmaster is able to control him.
668
00:38:13,667 --> 00:38:17,045
He can barely harness any lightning.
669
00:38:18,630 --> 00:38:19,840
Just a few sparkles.
670
00:38:20,757 --> 00:38:24,136
So the whole point of this was really
just to put him on the back foot
671
00:38:24,219 --> 00:38:28,348
and, because he's a god,
he's the God of Thunder,
672
00:38:28,974 --> 00:38:32,352
it's very hard to believe
that he can be beaten in a fight.
673
00:38:32,436 --> 00:38:36,106
So, it's more fun when you see
a character like that
674
00:38:37,191 --> 00:38:40,194
stripped down and he's become
more like everyone else.
675
00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:45,365
This guy here, Steven,
who plays the cousin,
676
00:38:45,824 --> 00:38:49,912
he is a really great comic actor
from Australia.
677
00:38:50,662 --> 00:38:53,540
I discovered him on a TV show
called Black Comedy,
678
00:38:53,916 --> 00:38:57,211
which is an aboriginal sketch
comedy show.
679
00:38:57,669 --> 00:39:00,631
He was part of some of
my favorite sketches that I'd seen
680
00:39:00,714 --> 00:39:03,091
and just invited him up to come
and do this small part.
681
00:39:03,258 --> 00:39:06,220
If you look at the extras on the DVD,
682
00:39:06,386 --> 00:39:08,847
there's an extended version of the scene
683
00:39:09,014 --> 00:39:12,184
which was so hilarious,
684
00:39:12,267 --> 00:39:17,773
but for time, you just can't put
everything you love into a movie.
685
00:39:20,526 --> 00:39:22,611
And of course, it's Jeff Goldblum.
686
00:39:23,695 --> 00:39:25,906
We're gonna have to get him
to play music.
687
00:39:26,073 --> 00:39:28,909
He was playing an actual keyboard
throughout the scene.
688
00:39:29,159 --> 00:39:32,287
Then we changed the instrumentation
and stuff.
689
00:39:32,538 --> 00:39:34,957
But this whole time that he was talking,
690
00:39:35,207 --> 00:39:38,377
there's a keyboard there
that he would be tinkering around on
691
00:39:38,544 --> 00:39:39,586
during the scene.
692
00:39:42,714 --> 00:39:44,299
Then, oh, him.
693
00:39:45,092 --> 00:39:46,301
Brother Loki.
694
00:39:47,636 --> 00:39:48,637
Loki! Loki!
695
00:39:49,513 --> 00:39:51,873
A lot of these characters you'll see
in the background there
696
00:39:51,974 --> 00:39:55,727
are taken directly from Kirby's designs.
697
00:39:55,894 --> 00:40:00,023
There were some characters that were
just pulled straight out of the comics
698
00:40:00,190 --> 00:40:02,568
and we've sort of done
our own things, too, but
699
00:40:02,901 --> 00:40:07,698
all of those kind of designs, those
crazy Aztec-style helmets and stuff,
700
00:40:09,032 --> 00:40:11,577
all of that is all influenced by him.
701
00:40:13,328 --> 00:40:16,582
This whole world, Sakaar, yeah,
this was our chance
702
00:40:16,748 --> 00:40:19,209
to really pay homage to Kirby.
703
00:40:21,169 --> 00:40:24,548
And just really go there
with all of these looks.
704
00:40:26,883 --> 00:40:29,219
Traditionally, the Grandmaster is blue,
705
00:40:31,763 --> 00:40:35,392
but one of the fears were,
706
00:40:35,601 --> 00:40:37,811
by making Jeff Goldblum blue,
would be that
707
00:40:37,894 --> 00:40:41,356
people might think he was resurrecting
his character from
708
00:40:42,399 --> 00:40:43,859
Earth Girls are Easy.
709
00:40:44,026 --> 00:40:46,236
Hey, Sparkles, here's the deal.
710
00:40:46,403 --> 00:40:48,614
You wanna get back to Ass-place,
Assberg...
711
00:40:48,697 --> 00:40:49,698
Asgard!
712
00:40:49,781 --> 00:40:51,491
Any contender who defeats...
713
00:40:51,742 --> 00:40:53,928
WAITITI: So we gave him a little strip,
a little blue strip,
714
00:40:53,952 --> 00:40:55,162
which just hints at it.
715
00:40:55,621 --> 00:40:58,081
Sometimes, all you need is a hint.
Am I right?
716
00:40:58,332 --> 00:41:01,084
That's what I call, contender.
717
00:41:01,209 --> 00:41:04,630
Now, we're about to meet
probably the most popular character
718
00:41:04,796 --> 00:41:07,257
to ever grace the screens
of a Marvel film.
719
00:41:10,093 --> 00:41:11,887
By grace, I do mean grace.
720
00:41:14,306 --> 00:41:16,725
So this other character here,
this rock guy,
721
00:41:18,268 --> 00:41:21,521
his name is Korg,
and he's played by Taika Waititi,
722
00:41:21,688 --> 00:41:26,068
who is one of the great, great
New Zealand actors.
723
00:41:26,485 --> 00:41:33,033
Miek, over there, he was performed
by one of our stuntmen,
724
00:41:33,575 --> 00:41:35,452
who was an expert in Wushu
725
00:41:35,619 --> 00:41:39,998
and all of these amazing,
acrobatic fighting styles.
726
00:41:41,917 --> 00:41:44,586
So there were just two of us there
727
00:41:44,753 --> 00:41:47,923
who were wearing these MoCap suits,
728
00:41:48,173 --> 00:41:50,842
those fractal suits,
which look really ridiculous.
729
00:41:53,679 --> 00:41:55,722
Every time I was directing
in one of those suits
730
00:41:55,889 --> 00:41:57,474
I felt more and more ridiculous.
731
00:41:57,724 --> 00:42:01,103
But I'm really happy now,
seeing the final product.
732
00:42:01,269 --> 00:42:03,522
Because if it was just me in there
in those pajamas,
733
00:42:03,689 --> 00:42:06,441
it wouldn't be quite as impressive
734
00:42:06,608 --> 00:42:09,528
as how Korg is in the film.
735
00:42:11,196 --> 00:42:13,657
What we wanted from Korg,
and Korg, incidentally, and Miek,
736
00:42:13,824 --> 00:42:16,159
they both come from
the Planet Hulk run as well.
737
00:42:16,743 --> 00:42:19,579
What we wanted from Korg
was just someone who could
738
00:42:20,288 --> 00:42:24,209
look intense and strong and formidable
739
00:42:24,292 --> 00:42:26,128
and like he might fight Thor,
740
00:42:26,211 --> 00:42:28,296
but to be just a real sweetheart.
741
00:42:29,715 --> 00:42:32,551
We wanted him to...
I based him a little bit on
742
00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:39,099
the bouncers in Auckland,
at nightclubs in New Zealand.
743
00:42:39,641 --> 00:42:42,602
Polynesian bouncers who are
like huge, huge dudes
744
00:42:42,769 --> 00:42:44,396
but they're the nicest people.
745
00:42:44,563 --> 00:42:48,275
They got this really kind of
beautiful, light nature to them
746
00:42:48,442 --> 00:42:49,922
because they don't wanna hurt anyone,
747
00:42:50,318 --> 00:42:52,863
even though they could break your neck
748
00:42:53,238 --> 00:42:54,489
with one hand.
749
00:42:57,701 --> 00:43:01,997
I really like the concept behind this,
what you're about to see,
750
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:06,460
where we're showing that
what we think about Asgard
751
00:43:06,543 --> 00:43:08,837
and what we think
of the history of Asgard.
752
00:43:09,045 --> 00:43:10,464
Look at these lies.
753
00:43:10,714 --> 00:43:13,300
It's all a charade. Cha-raid? Charade?
754
00:43:14,468 --> 00:43:16,887
Oh, look, there's Odin and Thor
partying with some girls.
755
00:43:17,304 --> 00:43:19,681
And Odin and Laufey,
the Frost Giant, was it?
756
00:43:19,765 --> 00:43:21,808
I think that's Loki's dad.
757
00:43:23,351 --> 00:43:28,315
I wanted to show that all societies
and all worlds,
758
00:43:28,815 --> 00:43:30,358
they all have histories.
759
00:43:31,193 --> 00:43:34,070
Asgard's no exception. They used to...
760
00:43:34,404 --> 00:43:39,701
Odin and Hela used to be
the great conquerors of the cosmos
761
00:43:39,785 --> 00:43:42,037
and they would go around
762
00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:47,250
and they would just conquer
and take over these worlds.
763
00:43:48,210 --> 00:43:51,004
They would take, a lot of the resources
that they would take,
764
00:43:51,129 --> 00:43:52,380
came back to Asgard.
765
00:43:52,464 --> 00:43:53,799
That's how they built the palace
766
00:43:53,965 --> 00:43:55,801
and that's where all the gold came from.
767
00:43:58,261 --> 00:44:01,640
Through one reason or another,
Odin changed his ways.
768
00:44:01,807 --> 00:44:06,686
And realized that peace
was a way better thing to strive for.
769
00:44:07,145 --> 00:44:09,439
But Hela, who was brought up
on the battlefield
770
00:44:10,690 --> 00:44:14,152
and was a conqueror,
and was basically raised as a conqueror,
771
00:44:14,611 --> 00:44:16,112
couldn't let that go
772
00:44:16,196 --> 00:44:19,324
and wanted to keep spreading
their empire
773
00:44:19,407 --> 00:44:21,785
and keep conquering
and keep taking worlds.
774
00:44:24,371 --> 00:44:25,413
What I love about this...
775
00:44:25,539 --> 00:44:27,249
There!
There's a little Easter egg for you.
776
00:44:28,959 --> 00:44:32,337
That gauntlet, that bejeweled gauntlet,
777
00:44:32,712 --> 00:44:36,633
which appeared in Thor 1 and
had a lot of the fans speculating
778
00:44:37,008 --> 00:44:39,803
as to why was that gauntlet there.
779
00:44:40,554 --> 00:44:45,308
We thought it was necessary
to explain to everyone
780
00:44:45,433 --> 00:44:46,685
that it was a fake.
781
00:44:46,768 --> 00:44:48,019
I like to think that
782
00:44:48,186 --> 00:44:51,565
Odin had that fake gauntlet
in his weapons vault,
783
00:44:52,232 --> 00:44:55,151
so that people of the universe
would think
784
00:44:55,235 --> 00:44:57,112
that it was safe and that he had it.
785
00:44:57,529 --> 00:45:01,074
Whereas, as we now know
from the other Avengers films
786
00:45:01,157 --> 00:45:04,661
and from everything that we know
about Thanos,
787
00:45:05,996 --> 00:45:09,457
that the true gauntlet
is still out there
788
00:45:09,791 --> 00:45:12,711
and the true Infinity gems
are still out there
789
00:45:12,919 --> 00:45:14,796
waiting to be collected.
790
00:45:19,885 --> 00:45:25,181
So, one of the criticisms
that Hela has about Odin is that
791
00:45:25,473 --> 00:45:29,019
of his secrets
and the shame that he felt
792
00:45:29,477 --> 00:45:34,190
over her and all the conquering
that they used to do.
793
00:45:35,609 --> 00:45:37,986
One of his things is he would just
keep covering things up,
794
00:45:38,069 --> 00:45:43,533
like that big mural, he'd cover it up
with a sort of saccharine
795
00:45:46,786 --> 00:45:51,374
painting, with parties,
and tea parties and garden parties,
796
00:45:51,541 --> 00:45:53,627
and peace treaties.
797
00:45:53,793 --> 00:45:57,422
Whereas the real Asgard,
as Hela would put it, lies beneath
798
00:45:57,589 --> 00:46:00,675
and so beneath the floor
of the weapons vault.
799
00:46:00,884 --> 00:46:03,845
This is where he stored Hela's old army
800
00:46:04,012 --> 00:46:06,932
who she now brings back to life
with the Eternal Flame.
801
00:46:08,642 --> 00:46:10,936
And one of the great,
802
00:46:12,145 --> 00:46:16,399
one of the great allies to Hela
803
00:46:16,483 --> 00:46:17,943
is the wolf, Fenris,
804
00:46:18,109 --> 00:46:21,988
who, of course, comes from the comics.
805
00:46:26,034 --> 00:46:27,494
This is a nice scene.
806
00:46:28,995 --> 00:46:30,246
One of the, um...
807
00:46:31,456 --> 00:46:33,959
One of the things we focused on
a lot in this film
808
00:46:34,042 --> 00:46:39,589
was really developing that arc
between Thor and Loki.
809
00:46:40,048 --> 00:46:41,925
We really wanted to make sure that
810
00:46:42,634 --> 00:46:45,178
what they'd been through
throughout the other films,
811
00:46:47,055 --> 00:46:50,767
that it would really pay off.
812
00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:55,897
They've had such a complex relationship
over those films
813
00:46:56,314 --> 00:46:59,025
that we wanted to develop it further
814
00:46:59,150 --> 00:47:01,486
and by the end of the film,
815
00:47:02,529 --> 00:47:06,282
make that a really satisfying thing
to have gone along on that journey
816
00:47:06,574 --> 00:47:08,034
over so long.
817
00:47:11,454 --> 00:47:14,290
I think that's one of the big parts
of this film
818
00:47:14,374 --> 00:47:18,837
is really the story of Loki and Thor
819
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:22,090
and them reaching some understanding
820
00:47:22,173 --> 00:47:25,468
and them reaching
some sort of resolution.
821
00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:27,720
She's stronger than you.
You don't stand a chance.
822
00:47:28,054 --> 00:47:30,056
Do you understand what I'm saying here?
823
00:47:31,683 --> 00:47:33,518
(SCOFFS)
824
00:47:33,643 --> 00:47:35,770
WAITITI: I like to think that
825
00:47:35,895 --> 00:47:39,441
those little bits of graffiti back there
826
00:47:40,692 --> 00:47:44,904
are like normal messages
that you'd see in toilets on Earth.
827
00:47:45,822 --> 00:47:48,450
Things like "Barry sucks,"
828
00:47:48,616 --> 00:47:54,497
and, "For a good time, call 02166332."
829
00:47:55,623 --> 00:47:56,703
You faked your own death...
830
00:47:57,667 --> 00:47:59,919
you stole the throne,
stripped Odin of his power...
831
00:48:00,003 --> 00:48:02,213
I think the art department
did a great job there
832
00:48:02,881 --> 00:48:04,924
of making all those symbols and stuff.
833
00:48:05,008 --> 00:48:08,344
Because it does,
it absolutely says to me
834
00:48:08,428 --> 00:48:10,555
those are alien writings.
835
00:48:10,764 --> 00:48:12,724
Look at that,
it's like little crop circles there.
836
00:48:13,224 --> 00:48:14,684
Maybe that's what crop circles are.
837
00:48:14,768 --> 00:48:18,813
They're just aliens that have come
to Earth and just tagged fields.
838
00:48:19,522 --> 00:48:21,191
They're saying like,
839
00:48:22,108 --> 00:48:23,610
"We came here.
840
00:48:23,777 --> 00:48:26,446
"It was just a boring wheat field,
841
00:48:26,613 --> 00:48:28,114
"so we went back into outer space."
842
00:48:28,281 --> 00:48:29,824
He's freaking gone.
843
00:48:32,243 --> 00:48:35,163
WAITITI: "Steven and Zorg were here."
844
00:48:36,539 --> 00:48:37,999
"2017."
845
00:48:38,374 --> 00:48:39,375
KORG: Oh, yuck!
846
00:48:39,459 --> 00:48:41,711
There's still someone's hair and blood
all over this!
847
00:48:41,836 --> 00:48:43,236
Guys, can you clean up the weapons?
848
00:48:43,296 --> 00:48:44,923
WAITITI: Chris and I had a good time
849
00:48:45,423 --> 00:48:47,759
improvising a lot, ad-libbing.
850
00:48:49,844 --> 00:48:53,223
This scene here, we do a lot of stuff
with this scene.
851
00:48:54,057 --> 00:48:56,434
We went through
all these different weapons.
852
00:48:56,726 --> 00:48:58,812
We had a lot of fun doing that.
853
00:48:59,145 --> 00:49:03,483
I think that's what gives this film
a certain flavor.
854
00:49:03,817 --> 00:49:07,904
A lot of the time,
we would just allow ourselves
855
00:49:08,071 --> 00:49:10,365
and allow the other actors
to ad-lib a line,
856
00:49:10,532 --> 00:49:12,492
to come up with ideas on the spot
857
00:49:12,659 --> 00:49:14,744
and just to be a bit more playful.
858
00:49:14,828 --> 00:49:18,832
This whole scene here developed over
a couple of weeks before we shot it.
859
00:49:19,999 --> 00:49:22,752
Chris and Eric got together
and wrote this stuff
860
00:49:22,836 --> 00:49:26,673
about pulling this hammer up
and all this kind of ridiculous stuff
861
00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:29,467
which I never thought
would even be in the movie.
862
00:49:29,676 --> 00:49:33,596
(CHUCKLING) But, it's in the movie!
863
00:49:35,932 --> 00:49:39,060
But that's what
I think makes the film great.
864
00:49:39,352 --> 00:49:42,564
It can go from irreverence like that,
and then into something serious,
865
00:49:42,689 --> 00:49:45,066
like him trying to get home,
back to Asgard
866
00:49:45,233 --> 00:49:47,026
and learning about Valkyrie.
867
00:49:47,527 --> 00:49:50,947
This sort of swings
between humor and drama all the time.
868
00:49:51,781 --> 00:49:52,782
Hey.
869
00:49:53,241 --> 00:49:57,245
That little move she does with
that beer bottle is a little homage to
870
00:49:58,413 --> 00:50:00,748
Once Were Warriors,
this great New Zealand film,
871
00:50:00,915 --> 00:50:03,877
where Beth Heke opens
all the beer bottles with a fish slice.
872
00:50:04,711 --> 00:50:06,296
My God, you're a Valkyrie.
873
00:50:07,672 --> 00:50:10,508
I designed that tattoo.
874
00:50:11,676 --> 00:50:14,053
There's nothing wrong with women,
of course. I love women.
875
00:50:14,220 --> 00:50:17,182
WAITITI: I'm gonna get it on my face
after this commentary.
876
00:50:17,348 --> 00:50:18,908
It's more of a respectful appreciation.
877
00:50:19,058 --> 00:50:20,560
I think it's great.
878
00:50:20,935 --> 00:50:24,647
WAITITI: That little robot
there is called Beer Bot 2000?
879
00:50:24,814 --> 00:50:26,107
Beer Bot 5000.
880
00:50:26,274 --> 00:50:27,775
Beer Bot 5000.
881
00:50:28,109 --> 00:50:30,278
And believe it or not,
882
00:50:30,403 --> 00:50:33,740
that is played by someone
in a MoCap suit.
883
00:50:35,867 --> 00:50:37,160
His name was Hamish.
884
00:50:37,327 --> 00:50:40,330
And he was in Hunt for the Wilderpeople.
885
00:50:40,538 --> 00:50:44,000
He's a very funny guy, he's a comedian
from back home, from New Zealand.
886
00:50:44,292 --> 00:50:46,252
And we turned him into a robot.
887
00:50:47,337 --> 00:50:49,631
And no one escapes this place.
888
00:50:49,797 --> 00:50:51,817
WAITITI: Here comes one of
my favorite shots of the movie.
889
00:50:51,841 --> 00:50:55,220
It is this one!
890
00:50:58,181 --> 00:50:59,807
Oh, cameo alert!
891
00:51:03,186 --> 00:51:06,314
Now don't you move! My hands
aren't as steady as they used to be.
892
00:51:06,481 --> 00:51:07,565
WAITITI: Stan Lee.
893
00:51:08,441 --> 00:51:11,736
I think it's one of the funniest
of all the Stan Lee cameos.
894
00:51:11,819 --> 00:51:13,488
...the wrath of the mighty Thor!
895
00:51:15,615 --> 00:51:17,533
WAITITI: So good,
and he was such a trouper.
896
00:51:19,786 --> 00:51:20,828
He came in
897
00:51:20,912 --> 00:51:24,040
and he's a natural.
The guy's just so good.
898
00:51:25,208 --> 00:51:26,918
He was just so funny.
899
00:51:30,088 --> 00:51:31,422
He has a sort of real presence.
900
00:51:31,506 --> 00:51:34,676
And I was really awestruck
when I met him.
901
00:51:34,759 --> 00:51:36,886
It was one of my big
902
00:51:38,346 --> 00:51:40,807
celebrity star-struck moments.
903
00:51:41,349 --> 00:51:42,892
Meeting Stan Lee.
904
00:51:43,142 --> 00:51:46,980
Please, I'm your host.
Big round of applause for all of our...
905
00:51:47,522 --> 00:51:51,651
WAITITI: So now we have Valkyrie turning
up in her spaceship, the War Song.
906
00:51:52,902 --> 00:51:54,821
What a show! What a night!
907
00:51:55,571 --> 00:51:58,950
Which is a name taken from a poem
about the Valkyrie.
908
00:52:00,076 --> 00:52:04,289
Usually, in the comics, she would have
a flying horse called Aragorn.
909
00:52:07,250 --> 00:52:10,128
Fun fact 2,721.
910
00:52:12,547 --> 00:52:15,425
The big mural in the back of this
is an actual piece
911
00:52:15,508 --> 00:52:17,677
of Jack Kirby art.
912
00:52:18,177 --> 00:52:20,137
GRANDMASTER: I'll say no more,
see what you think.
913
00:52:20,346 --> 00:52:23,266
WAITITI: Fun fact 3,022.
914
00:52:25,435 --> 00:52:27,895
(AUDIENCE BOOING AND SHOUTING)
915
00:52:28,104 --> 00:52:30,064
Chris has had a haircut.
916
00:52:35,361 --> 00:52:37,947
I thought it was a great idea
to give Chris a haircut.
917
00:52:38,531 --> 00:52:40,384
I think part of it for him was
he was sick of wearing
918
00:52:40,408 --> 00:52:41,743
a wig all the time.
919
00:52:41,951 --> 00:52:43,953
But I actually think...
920
00:52:45,038 --> 00:52:47,749
Again, this whole idea
of reinventing everything,
921
00:52:47,874 --> 00:52:49,959
it's really great for the character.
922
00:52:50,251 --> 00:52:51,836
He looks way better, I think.
923
00:52:54,505 --> 00:52:56,174
And if you look at the sides
of his head,
924
00:52:57,467 --> 00:52:59,344
one side, there's an "N",
925
00:52:59,510 --> 00:53:02,722
the other side is like a "Zed,"
or a "Z".
926
00:53:03,181 --> 00:53:05,892
And what does that spell? NZ.
927
00:53:06,184 --> 00:53:07,894
Or NZed, New Zealand.
928
00:53:08,186 --> 00:53:10,938
It's like Chris did
a little homage to me.
929
00:53:11,064 --> 00:53:13,733
It's like he was just
tipping his cap to me.
930
00:53:14,359 --> 00:53:15,985
That's how much he loves me.
931
00:53:17,528 --> 00:53:18,672
GRANDMASTER:
He's the reigning.
932
00:53:18,696 --> 00:53:21,491
WAITITI: Uh, yeah,
Thor's wearing his helmet.
933
00:53:22,075 --> 00:53:24,243
There you go, fans.
You've been asking for years.
934
00:53:24,786 --> 00:53:25,953
You got it.
935
00:53:26,412 --> 00:53:27,580
I gave it to you.
936
00:53:27,747 --> 00:53:28,748
Oh, did you see that guy?
937
00:53:28,915 --> 00:53:31,542
There's a three-headed guy
in that prison cell there.
938
00:53:31,709 --> 00:53:34,003
You only get a few glimpses of him
now and then.
939
00:53:34,170 --> 00:53:37,465
But whenever you see him,
there's three heads looking at you.
940
00:53:37,590 --> 00:53:39,092
Yeah, not this guy.
941
00:53:39,175 --> 00:53:41,427
But those three heads,
the one on the far right,
942
00:53:43,638 --> 00:53:44,972
that's my face.
943
00:53:47,934 --> 00:53:50,728
Spoiler alert,
the Incredible Hulk is in this movie.
944
00:53:51,104 --> 00:53:54,190
Don't know if you guys were aware
of that, but there he is.
945
00:53:55,149 --> 00:53:58,528
And the Incredible Hulk, obviously,
is played by?
946
00:53:59,320 --> 00:54:00,947
Bruce Banner. Correct.
947
00:54:02,782 --> 00:54:04,409
Who's an amazing actor.
948
00:54:09,414 --> 00:54:13,543
And yes, we all know, it's Mark Ruffalo.
949
00:54:13,835 --> 00:54:16,087
Now, Mark did all this MoCap himself.
950
00:54:16,546 --> 00:54:19,841
So this is, yeah,
this is mainly Mark here
951
00:54:19,924 --> 00:54:23,678
just doing all of his expressions
and everything
952
00:54:24,679 --> 00:54:28,307
and all the action stuff,
all that movement stuff.
953
00:54:29,392 --> 00:54:31,727
He does all those little nuances,
all those little kind of
954
00:54:31,936 --> 00:54:33,438
character things.
955
00:54:33,521 --> 00:54:35,648
All get picked up
when you do motion capture.
956
00:54:37,024 --> 00:54:39,110
So, essentially,
you are seeing the actor
957
00:54:39,277 --> 00:54:43,948
except that he's now nine
or ten feet tall and green.
958
00:54:46,784 --> 00:54:49,745
Banner! Hey, Banner!
959
00:54:49,912 --> 00:54:51,622
No Banner. Only Hulk.
960
00:54:51,998 --> 00:54:56,085
Oh. Fun fact 634,022.
961
00:54:57,170 --> 00:54:58,421
"He's a friend from work"
962
00:54:58,588 --> 00:55:03,092
was actually not a line
that either of us came up with
963
00:55:03,176 --> 00:55:04,719
or anyone on the film.
964
00:55:05,219 --> 00:55:10,016
It was actually a line from a kid
who came to visit set.
965
00:55:12,268 --> 00:55:15,688
I guess it was
like the Win-A-Wish foundation
966
00:55:15,855 --> 00:55:18,816
where they give set visits
to kids and stuff.
967
00:55:19,066 --> 00:55:21,777
So the line, "He's a friend from work"
968
00:55:22,069 --> 00:55:25,198
was actually given to us
by a kid who was visiting set.
969
00:55:26,824 --> 00:55:28,743
He was hanging out with Chris all day
970
00:55:29,452 --> 00:55:31,871
and we were about to go
and do another take.
971
00:55:32,371 --> 00:55:33,724
And then he whispers to Chris, he goes,
972
00:55:33,748 --> 00:55:36,268
"Hey, you know what you should say
when you see the Incredible Hulk?"
973
00:55:36,292 --> 00:55:38,836
"You should say,
'He's a friend from work!"'
974
00:55:40,505 --> 00:55:43,299
He did, and it became this huge thing
975
00:55:43,466 --> 00:55:45,343
and now it's on t-shirts and everything,
976
00:55:45,426 --> 00:55:47,470
on posters and it's in the trailer.
977
00:55:47,762 --> 00:55:49,972
- So full credit to that kid.
- (BABY COOING)
978
00:55:50,431 --> 00:55:52,475
Talking about kids, this is my kid.
979
00:55:53,100 --> 00:55:56,187
Yeah, if you hear a little voice
throughout some of this.
980
00:55:56,270 --> 00:55:57,647
This is Matua, my daughter,
981
00:55:57,813 --> 00:56:00,399
who's just come to help me out
for a little bit.
982
00:56:01,025 --> 00:56:03,027
How you doing? Good?
983
00:56:04,779 --> 00:56:06,030
What is that?
984
00:56:08,491 --> 00:56:11,994
- (MATUA BABBLING)
- (WAITITI LAUGHS)
985
00:56:12,620 --> 00:56:15,122
Yeah. Do you know who that is?
That's the Incredible Hulk.
986
00:56:18,209 --> 00:56:20,962
There's Uncle Chris, there's Uncle Hulk.
987
00:56:21,379 --> 00:56:22,880
He does Hulk Smash.
988
00:56:25,091 --> 00:56:26,968
Oh, there you go, the ragdoll moment,
989
00:56:27,134 --> 00:56:29,679
which is another fan favorite.
990
00:56:29,887 --> 00:56:32,265
Of course, it happened to Loki
in Avengers 1.
991
00:56:34,725 --> 00:56:36,310
Then we got to do it to Thor.
992
00:56:36,394 --> 00:56:39,313
- (MATUA BABBLING)
- Yeah, exactly.
993
00:56:39,397 --> 00:56:40,982
(CONTINUES BABBLING)
994
00:56:41,065 --> 00:56:43,901
Yeah, Hulk smash, Hulk smash.
995
00:56:48,990 --> 00:56:50,408
All right. Screw it.
996
00:56:50,491 --> 00:56:52,660
MATUA: Uh-Oh.
WAITITI: Yeah.
997
00:56:53,786 --> 00:56:55,997
- MATUA: Be gentle.
- Be gentle.
998
00:56:59,208 --> 00:57:00,626
MATUA: This why?
999
00:57:03,421 --> 00:57:05,464
I know you're in there, Banner.
I'll get you out!
1000
00:57:05,548 --> 00:57:06,549
WAITITI: Yeah.
1001
00:57:07,633 --> 00:57:09,010
He's angry.
1002
00:57:09,802 --> 00:57:11,262
(ROARS)
1003
00:57:11,929 --> 00:57:13,347
MATUA: Uh-oh.
1004
00:57:15,766 --> 00:57:17,226
Somebody's angry.
1005
00:57:18,477 --> 00:57:19,854
WAITITI: Yeah, really angry.
1006
00:57:21,272 --> 00:57:23,065
Because what we tried to do in this...
1007
00:57:23,232 --> 00:57:24,525
- MATUA: Yes.
- Yeah.
1008
00:57:25,818 --> 00:57:28,362
- (MATUA BABBLING)
- WAITITI: Mmm-hmm.
1009
00:57:29,113 --> 00:57:30,281
We wanted to show...
1010
00:57:32,533 --> 00:57:34,702
This idea of Hulk and Thor fighting
1011
00:57:34,785 --> 00:57:37,538
has been a big point of debate
for many years...
1012
00:57:37,705 --> 00:57:38,706
MATUA: Yes.
1013
00:57:38,831 --> 00:57:40,374
WAITITI: ...for all the fans.
1014
00:57:41,167 --> 00:57:43,794
So it's always online,
and on the blogs and stuff,
1015
00:57:43,919 --> 00:57:47,340
they're always like, "Oh, who would win
in a fight between Hulk and Thor?"
1016
00:57:49,717 --> 00:57:53,095
Yeah, we put them together
and we made them have this big fight.
1017
00:57:53,262 --> 00:57:55,848
And I wanted to show that Thor...
1018
00:57:56,182 --> 00:57:58,493
Because everyone was like, "Hulk's
the strongest thing in the universe."
1019
00:57:58,517 --> 00:57:59,935
But Thor's a god.
1020
00:58:00,561 --> 00:58:03,105
They're both, I think,
equally as strong as each other.
1021
00:58:04,315 --> 00:58:06,984
And plus, Thor's got...
1022
00:58:08,194 --> 00:58:10,946
- lightning.
- MATUA: (GASPS) Uh-oh.
1023
00:58:15,868 --> 00:58:18,913
- Wow.
- MATUA: Uh-oh.
1024
00:58:19,246 --> 00:58:20,790
WAITITI: Yeah. Uh-Oh.
1025
00:58:20,998 --> 00:58:22,667
Uh-oh. Hulk's in trouble.
1026
00:58:24,669 --> 00:58:27,880
Oh, here we go. Electric Man.
Captain Electric.
1027
00:58:30,383 --> 00:58:32,183
What do you think
is gonna happen here, bubba?
1028
00:58:39,350 --> 00:58:40,768
And here's a big punch.
1029
00:58:45,439 --> 00:58:48,234
MATUA: on, my gosh!
1030
00:58:49,068 --> 00:58:51,612
(WAITITI LAUGHS)
1031
00:58:51,696 --> 00:58:54,448
The Hulk Smash very angry.
1032
00:58:54,615 --> 00:58:56,450
WAITITI: Yeah, Hulk Smash very angry.
1033
00:58:56,742 --> 00:59:00,246
Thunder! Thunder! Thunder!
1034
00:59:03,624 --> 00:59:04,959
MATUA: He's fall down.
1035
00:59:05,501 --> 00:59:07,211
WAITITI: Yeah. Ooh!
1036
00:59:12,174 --> 00:59:13,592
- Yeah.
- MATUA: Uh-oh.
1037
00:59:14,343 --> 00:59:16,423
WAITITI: There's a lot of uh-oh moments
in this film.
1038
00:59:16,512 --> 00:59:18,723
- MATUA: Oh, my gosh!
- Yeah.
1039
00:59:21,183 --> 00:59:22,727
Look, you just missed me.
1040
00:59:22,810 --> 00:59:24,562
Missed my little face there.
1041
00:59:26,439 --> 00:59:29,900
(MATUA BABBLING)
1042
00:59:29,984 --> 00:59:31,736
MATUA: (GASPS) Uh-oh.
1043
00:59:32,069 --> 00:59:33,279
Oh, my gosh!
1044
00:59:38,993 --> 00:59:40,244
WAITITI: It's amazing?
1045
00:59:41,328 --> 00:59:44,582
- MATUA: (WHIMPERS) No.
- (WAITITI LAUGHS)
1046
00:59:44,749 --> 00:59:46,542
- Scary.
- WAITITI: Scary?
1047
00:59:47,209 --> 00:59:49,837
- MATUA: Uh-oh. Here comes another one.
- Mmm-hmm.
1048
00:59:50,629 --> 00:59:51,630
Another one.
1049
00:59:56,802 --> 00:59:58,637
Tell me about yourself, Skurge.
1050
00:59:59,138 --> 01:00:04,268
Did I tell you, Matua,
that the design here, that's all like
1051
01:00:04,518 --> 01:00:09,106
Ra Vincent and Dan Hennah?
1052
01:00:09,982 --> 01:00:12,067
MATUA: Oh, my gosh!
1053
01:00:12,234 --> 01:00:13,778
WAITITI: Oh, my gosh!
1054
01:00:14,862 --> 01:00:16,655
MATUA: I wanna look at this one.
1055
01:00:16,989 --> 01:00:17,990
WAITITI: What one?
1056
01:00:18,073 --> 01:00:21,368
MATUA: My grown-up one.
1057
01:00:21,535 --> 01:00:23,388
- You're gonna see the grown-up one?
- MATUA: Yeah.
1058
01:00:23,412 --> 01:00:25,172
WAITITI: You wanna go
and see something else?
1059
01:00:26,040 --> 01:00:28,459
MATUA: Yeah, something else.
1060
01:00:28,751 --> 01:00:31,253
(WAITITI LAUGHS)
1061
01:00:31,587 --> 01:00:33,088
I was Odin's executioner.
1062
01:00:33,172 --> 01:00:34,465
(MATUA SPEAKS INDISTINCTLY)
1063
01:00:34,757 --> 01:00:36,967
WAITITI: Okay, so I'm back now.
1064
01:00:37,551 --> 01:00:40,513
Matua's gone now,
she went to see something else.
1065
01:00:40,679 --> 01:00:43,182
She wasn't really interested
in this film.
1066
01:00:45,226 --> 01:00:47,019
Let's begin our conquest.
1067
01:00:47,228 --> 01:00:49,814
I was gonna comment just then on
1068
01:00:50,105 --> 01:00:53,234
Gungnir. Did you guys see Gungnir,
which is Odin's spear,
1069
01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:55,402
just behind Hela on that seat?
1070
01:00:58,531 --> 01:00:59,990
Skurge, where's the sword?
1071
01:01:00,074 --> 01:01:03,285
I think Gungnir's gonna make
a reappearance later on in the movie.
1072
01:01:05,955 --> 01:01:08,749
HELA: That sword is the key
to opening the Bifrost.
1073
01:01:09,041 --> 01:01:11,877
WAITITI: That sword is the key
to opening the Bifrost
1074
01:01:11,961 --> 01:01:15,631
and we're about to find out
who actually has it.
1075
01:01:18,592 --> 01:01:19,844
Who are those thieves?
1076
01:01:20,010 --> 01:01:21,971
It's not them,
they don't have the sword.
1077
01:01:23,180 --> 01:01:26,517
Look at this beautiful forest.
This is all Australia.
1078
01:01:26,851 --> 01:01:28,912
We achieved so many of these
different looks in Australia
1079
01:01:28,936 --> 01:01:32,314
and, I must say
working at that studio there...
1080
01:01:32,439 --> 01:01:34,024
Well, ho-ho-ho!
1081
01:01:34,275 --> 01:01:35,776
Who's this?
1082
01:01:37,486 --> 01:01:38,904
Bob Marley.
1083
01:01:39,405 --> 01:01:40,948
Excuse me.
1084
01:01:42,366 --> 01:01:46,453
WAITITI: So Idris calls me up
and he goes,
1085
01:01:46,662 --> 01:01:49,415
"Hello, mate, yeah,
I think I've got a, uh..."
1086
01:01:50,916 --> 01:01:52,477
"What do you think we
should do with the hair in this one?"
1087
01:01:52,501 --> 01:01:53,687
I was, like, "I don't know,
what do you think?"
1088
01:01:53,711 --> 01:01:55,129
"What about dreadlocks?"
1089
01:01:56,547 --> 01:01:57,882
Come on.
1090
01:01:57,965 --> 01:02:02,928
I like to think that Heimdall's been
living in the forest after being,
1091
01:02:04,972 --> 01:02:06,891
after being banished by...
1092
01:02:07,057 --> 01:02:10,227
Well, not banished. After being arrested
by Odin in Thor 2
1093
01:02:10,394 --> 01:02:11,979
and he somehow, he escaped
1094
01:02:12,146 --> 01:02:14,690
and didn't turn up for his trial
1095
01:02:14,773 --> 01:02:19,361
and he's been living up here
in the forest this entire time.
1096
01:02:19,528 --> 01:02:24,325
And he's been waiting
for it all to go down
1097
01:02:24,491 --> 01:02:26,285
because I think he could tell...
1098
01:02:26,452 --> 01:02:29,163
I like to think he could tell that Hela
was on her way back.
1099
01:02:29,330 --> 01:02:33,667
And so he went up there and he opened up
the old stronghold from the old days
1100
01:02:33,792 --> 01:02:37,588
where he would look after
all the Asgardians who were on the run.
1101
01:02:37,755 --> 01:02:40,132
And here they all are living up here
1102
01:02:41,175 --> 01:02:42,968
in this giant...
1103
01:02:44,094 --> 01:02:46,180
What do you call this? Stronghold?
1104
01:02:46,263 --> 01:02:47,473
A stronghold.
1105
01:02:51,185 --> 01:02:52,269
Oh, look.
1106
01:02:52,561 --> 01:02:54,521
Look at these nurses.
1107
01:02:54,855 --> 01:02:58,901
All these women
nursing Thor back to health.
1108
01:03:01,862 --> 01:03:03,906
Would you like to hear fun fact
1109
01:03:04,073 --> 01:03:09,703
8,024 million and 82?
1110
01:03:10,037 --> 01:03:11,038
Two of those nurses
1111
01:03:12,748 --> 01:03:15,167
played by mine and Chris's wives.
1112
01:03:15,334 --> 01:03:17,419
Elsa and Chelsa.
1113
01:03:24,969 --> 01:03:27,054
Obligatory
1114
01:03:28,889 --> 01:03:32,559
torso and arm shot there.
1115
01:03:32,935 --> 01:03:35,771
I will have you know that Chris
wasn't planning on doing
1116
01:03:35,938 --> 01:03:38,232
any topless scenes in this film.
1117
01:03:38,482 --> 01:03:43,404
And I, as a representative
of the audience,
1118
01:03:44,113 --> 01:03:45,906
I said to him, "You have to."
1119
01:03:46,657 --> 01:03:49,201
"What is the point
of doing all that work
1120
01:03:49,451 --> 01:03:51,704
"and training so hard
if you're not gonna show that off?"
1121
01:03:51,870 --> 01:03:55,332
I said, "Chris, you get out there,
dude, and you show it off."
1122
01:03:56,000 --> 01:04:02,339
And I would like to acknowledge myself
1123
01:04:02,423 --> 01:04:05,134
and Chris' body
for those extra ticket sales
1124
01:04:05,759 --> 01:04:08,554
that have occurred
because of those shots.
1125
01:04:09,096 --> 01:04:10,264
Winning.
1126
01:04:10,723 --> 01:04:11,890
You mean cheating, huh?
1127
01:04:11,974 --> 01:04:14,059
Were they wearing one of these
when you won?
1128
01:04:14,601 --> 01:04:15,894
How'd you arrive here?
1129
01:04:17,271 --> 01:04:19,273
WAITITI: Look how good Hulk looks.
1130
01:04:19,440 --> 01:04:23,402
He looks like General Kurtz
in Apocalypse Now.
1131
01:04:26,238 --> 01:04:27,239
Doesn't he?
1132
01:04:27,865 --> 01:04:29,366
Does he? You're not answering.
1133
01:04:29,533 --> 01:04:31,869
Okay, well, this here was not my idea.
1134
01:04:34,997 --> 01:04:36,707
Hey, you're back!
1135
01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:39,001
Quinjet.
1136
01:04:49,803 --> 01:04:51,013
Yes!
1137
01:04:51,096 --> 01:04:52,598
I'm getting us out of here.
1138
01:04:52,890 --> 01:04:55,142
This is a terrible, awful place.
1139
01:04:55,309 --> 01:04:59,188
You're gonna love Asgard.
It's big. It's golden. Shiny.
1140
01:04:59,354 --> 01:05:00,856
Hulk stay.
1141
01:05:00,939 --> 01:05:04,526
No, no, no. My people need me
to get back to Asgard.
1142
01:05:05,152 --> 01:05:06,695
We must prevent Ragnarok.
1143
01:05:06,987 --> 01:05:08,280
Ragnarok?
1144
01:05:08,363 --> 01:05:12,242
The prophesied death of my home world.
The end of days, it's the end of...
1145
01:05:12,326 --> 01:05:13,660
(YAWNING)
1146
01:05:13,744 --> 01:05:15,913
If you help me get back to Asgard,
1147
01:05:16,080 --> 01:05:17,956
I can help you get back to Earth. Huh?
1148
01:05:18,123 --> 01:05:20,375
- Earth hate Hulk.
- What have you been doing today?
1149
01:05:20,667 --> 01:05:22,336
They love you.
You're one of the Avengers.
1150
01:05:22,419 --> 01:05:24,463
One of the team, one of our friends.
1151
01:05:24,713 --> 01:05:27,174
WAITITI: Anything?
You know, to anything.
1152
01:05:27,382 --> 01:05:29,468
What do two-year-olds get up to in LA?
1153
01:05:29,760 --> 01:05:30,844
Banner's friend.
1154
01:05:30,928 --> 01:05:32,096
I don't even like Banner.
1155
01:05:32,179 --> 01:05:34,890
"I'm into numbers and science
and stuff."
1156
01:05:36,308 --> 01:05:37,535
WAITITI: What do two-year-old's
get up to?
1157
01:05:37,559 --> 01:05:39,353
Do you have fun?
Do you ever do fun things?
1158
01:05:39,436 --> 01:05:40,938
That is Thor and Hulk.
1159
01:05:41,146 --> 01:05:43,166
When you were last here,
they were having a big fight.
1160
01:05:43,190 --> 01:05:44,817
Now they're talking it out.
1161
01:05:45,317 --> 01:05:46,902
MATUA: I wanna go see Mommy.
1162
01:05:46,985 --> 01:05:48,987
WAITITI: Yeah, okay, fine.
1163
01:05:49,571 --> 01:05:51,698
You didn't smash anything.
I won that fight.
1164
01:05:52,032 --> 01:05:54,952
WAITITI: You wanna go see
the grown-ups? Well, that's insulting.
1165
01:05:55,285 --> 01:05:56,829
- What?
- Baby.
1166
01:05:56,912 --> 01:05:58,080
WAITITI: Bye!
1167
01:05:58,789 --> 01:05:59,790
Thor go!
1168
01:05:59,873 --> 01:06:01,792
- I am going.
- (ALARM BEEPS)
1169
01:06:02,334 --> 01:06:04,711
WAITITI: Okay, well, she's gone. Again.
1170
01:06:05,003 --> 01:06:06,588
God, they're fickle, aren't they?
1171
01:06:08,465 --> 01:06:11,760
Where was I? Well, I was trying
to explain to my daughter that
1172
01:06:12,469 --> 01:06:16,306
we'd seen Hulk and Thor
having a big argument, a big fight,
1173
01:06:16,723 --> 01:06:18,201
then they were trying to talk it out,
1174
01:06:18,225 --> 01:06:19,825
trying to talk through
their differences.
1175
01:06:20,185 --> 01:06:22,479
Of course it ends in another argument.
1176
01:06:22,813 --> 01:06:25,983
But talking is way better than fighting,
1177
01:06:26,150 --> 01:06:29,611
and I think that's one
of the big messages of Thor.
1178
01:06:30,612 --> 01:06:33,740
And one of the messages I'm trying
to instill into my two-year-old.
1179
01:06:33,991 --> 01:06:38,954
You know, it's, like, sure we can try
and sort it out with our fists,
1180
01:06:39,329 --> 01:06:42,124
but why don't we try
and sort it out with our voices
1181
01:06:42,207 --> 01:06:45,627
and our ideas, and our understanding,
first and foremost.
1182
01:06:45,752 --> 01:06:48,297
And if that doesn't work,
then with our fists.
1183
01:06:50,883 --> 01:06:52,092
Help me see.
1184
01:06:55,846 --> 01:06:57,472
WAITITI: So, now...
1185
01:06:59,224 --> 01:07:01,059
Have you worked out what's going on?
1186
01:07:01,435 --> 01:07:05,522
Thor is using Heimdall's eyes
and Heimdall's magic
1187
01:07:06,023 --> 01:07:08,692
to transport back to Asgard,
1188
01:07:09,109 --> 01:07:12,279
not physically, but in a sort of a,
1189
01:07:12,738 --> 01:07:14,823
let's see, in a sort of an illusion.
1190
01:07:14,990 --> 01:07:17,030
Sort of like his spirit
has kind of gone back there.
1191
01:07:17,075 --> 01:07:19,494
So he can see what's going on
1192
01:07:19,661 --> 01:07:22,873
and see the effects
of Hela's occupation of Asgard.
1193
01:07:24,625 --> 01:07:27,878
But he's not actually there
so he's still trapped in Sakaar.
1194
01:07:28,003 --> 01:07:29,004
Come on.
1195
01:07:29,922 --> 01:07:34,134
This is when we find out
that they've gotta get...
1196
01:07:34,760 --> 01:07:36,220
They've gotta get rid of Hela
1197
01:07:36,386 --> 01:07:39,097
or they've gotta get everyone off Asgard
1198
01:07:39,264 --> 01:07:41,892
because she will grow
more and more powerful
1199
01:07:42,059 --> 01:07:43,352
the longer she's on Asgard
1200
01:07:43,518 --> 01:07:46,021
and she'll eventually
start taking over other worlds
1201
01:07:46,188 --> 01:07:48,774
and no one in the cosmos will be safe.
1202
01:07:51,568 --> 01:07:53,445
(GASPING)
1203
01:07:58,325 --> 01:08:01,787
Wow, I didn't realize that shot
was the color of the American flag.
1204
01:08:05,624 --> 01:08:07,000
(GROANS)
1205
01:08:07,417 --> 01:08:08,794
(GRUNTS)
1206
01:08:08,877 --> 01:08:10,504
Also the French flag.
1207
01:08:12,714 --> 01:08:14,549
Also the British flag.
1208
01:08:15,050 --> 01:08:16,970
And the New Zealand flag
and the Australian flag.
1209
01:08:17,552 --> 01:08:19,179
A lot of flags use red, white, and blue.
1210
01:08:19,346 --> 01:08:22,033
Okay, you guys? So when people
are talking about red, white, and blue
1211
01:08:22,057 --> 01:08:24,017
it's not just the American flag.
1212
01:08:25,060 --> 01:08:27,020
- I'm pissed off!
- Oh.
1213
01:08:27,646 --> 01:08:29,064
WAITITI: Now, this costume there,
1214
01:08:29,273 --> 01:08:31,316
this wardrobe that Hulk is wearing,
1215
01:08:32,526 --> 01:08:33,860
is a sort of...
1216
01:08:34,236 --> 01:08:35,797
It's kind of a... What do you call this?
1217
01:08:35,821 --> 01:08:37,489
A sort of Tibetan influence?
1218
01:08:38,198 --> 01:08:42,202
That is also from a comic.
1219
01:08:42,411 --> 01:08:44,246
Taken from some comic art.
1220
01:08:44,413 --> 01:08:46,349
And we just like the idea
of him just having clothes.
1221
01:08:46,373 --> 01:08:47,809
You know, different things,
we're, like...
1222
01:08:47,833 --> 01:08:51,211
He's a hero here on Sakaar
and people have designed stuff for him.
1223
01:08:51,295 --> 01:08:53,046
And, you know, this bed, this giant bed,
1224
01:08:53,213 --> 01:08:56,550
which Ra Vincent designed.
1225
01:08:58,135 --> 01:09:01,138
You know, all of the stuff,
you know, is all for him.
1226
01:09:01,221 --> 01:09:04,099
And he's made quite the life
here on Sakaar.
1227
01:09:04,808 --> 01:09:08,478
And you can understand I think
why he doesn't wanna go home.
1228
01:09:08,645 --> 01:09:10,314
You know, he's a hero here.
1229
01:09:11,189 --> 01:09:13,191
He's a champion
and the crowd celebrate him.
1230
01:09:13,358 --> 01:09:14,985
And on Earth, people run from him.
1231
01:09:17,696 --> 01:09:18,697
No. Mmm-mmm.
1232
01:09:19,656 --> 01:09:23,035
Literally, that two-year old
that was in here before,
1233
01:09:24,786 --> 01:09:26,747
or my five-year-old who's at school,
1234
01:09:27,247 --> 01:09:29,124
I've had this conversation with them.
1235
01:09:29,791 --> 01:09:30,959
It's okay.
1236
01:09:31,043 --> 01:09:33,420
WAITITI: Me being Thor,
and them being the Hulk.
1237
01:09:33,879 --> 01:09:37,382
I know. I'm sorry.
I just get so angry all the time.
1238
01:09:37,674 --> 01:09:39,874
WAITITI: "Sorry, Dad, I just get
so angry all the time."
1239
01:09:39,968 --> 01:09:41,428
We're the same, you and I.
1240
01:09:41,928 --> 01:09:43,528
We're just a couple of hot-headed fools.
1241
01:09:43,638 --> 01:09:47,601
Yeah, same.
Hulk like fire, Thor like water.
1242
01:09:48,602 --> 01:09:50,270
We're kind of both like fire.
1243
01:09:50,520 --> 01:09:52,731
But Hulk like real fire.
1244
01:09:53,357 --> 01:09:55,776
Hulk like raging fire.
1245
01:09:55,942 --> 01:09:58,904
Thor like smoldering fire.
1246
01:09:59,029 --> 01:10:00,572
(CHUCKLES)
1247
01:10:00,781 --> 01:10:02,908
Hulk, I need you to do something for me.
1248
01:10:07,913 --> 01:10:11,792
WAITITI: This here, another great
wide shot of the Hulk's suite.
1249
01:10:12,292 --> 01:10:16,213
This beautiful Kirby design.
1250
01:10:16,630 --> 01:10:20,175
All these lines and these patterns.
1251
01:10:29,184 --> 01:10:31,144
You're so thick-headed
that you can't tell
1252
01:10:31,311 --> 01:10:34,248
when someone's hiding all the way across
the universe and wants to be left alone.
1253
01:10:34,272 --> 01:10:37,442
- We need to talk.
- No, you wanna talk to me.
1254
01:10:37,609 --> 01:10:38,610
I need her to stay.
1255
01:10:38,777 --> 01:10:39,778
Stay?
1256
01:10:40,946 --> 01:10:43,323
WAITITI: This was one of
the first scenes we shot.
1257
01:10:44,908 --> 01:10:49,454
This was actually
Tessa's first day on the film.
1258
01:10:49,579 --> 01:10:51,206
All right.
1259
01:10:52,374 --> 01:10:55,419
She's American. I'm not sure
if you guys know that. She's American.
1260
01:10:57,671 --> 01:11:01,258
She did a really great job
with her accent and just coming in.
1261
01:11:01,800 --> 01:11:05,720
We'd been shooting for a couple of weeks
but this was her first scene.
1262
01:11:05,887 --> 01:11:07,907
It was a really big scene
and it was an emotional scene
1263
01:11:07,931 --> 01:11:10,183
and had a lot of dialogue.
1264
01:11:11,143 --> 01:11:15,021
But she just walked in,
put her stamp on everything and just...
1265
01:11:15,772 --> 01:11:19,734
She said, "Here I am,"
and blew everyone away.
1266
01:11:20,318 --> 01:11:25,532
She was such a good actor
and she completely owned that character.
1267
01:11:27,033 --> 01:11:28,702
And she owns the scene.
1268
01:11:30,328 --> 01:11:32,914
One thing we really
wanted to have fun with
1269
01:11:32,998 --> 01:11:34,833
was this idea of...
1270
01:11:34,916 --> 01:11:37,627
We kind of wanted to make fun
of all these movies
1271
01:11:37,752 --> 01:11:39,912
where people are talking about
getting a team together.
1272
01:11:40,213 --> 01:11:43,800
It's, "We're getting the team together!
We're gonna, oh yeah!"
1273
01:11:44,759 --> 01:11:48,597
Thor, having been with the Avengers,
is obsessed with this idea of
1274
01:11:49,181 --> 01:11:50,941
inspiring people
by getting the team together
1275
01:11:51,057 --> 01:11:53,393
and he's always trying to make the team.
1276
01:11:53,935 --> 01:11:57,397
Later on, when we see
the Revengers thing,
1277
01:11:58,565 --> 01:12:01,234
I think that pays off so well.
1278
01:12:02,736 --> 01:12:05,030
There's so many little things
there throughout the film,
1279
01:12:05,197 --> 01:12:08,074
especially for Chris
and he's so good at what he does
1280
01:12:08,200 --> 01:12:11,453
and he's so good at
making fun of himself...
1281
01:12:11,828 --> 01:12:12,954
Don't get familiar.
1282
01:12:14,581 --> 01:12:18,793
...that all those little jokes and stuff
that we've spread throughout the scene,
1283
01:12:18,919 --> 01:12:21,213
they're all very irreverant and
1284
01:12:22,297 --> 01:12:24,174
often try and subvert this idea
1285
01:12:24,257 --> 01:12:27,260
of what we've become used to
in these superhero movies.
1286
01:12:27,511 --> 01:12:28,970
- Good. Great.
- Great.
1287
01:12:29,804 --> 01:12:34,226
But Chris is a legitimately funny actor.
1288
01:12:36,186 --> 01:12:39,940
All those things that we've come
to expect from these kind of heroes,
1289
01:12:40,357 --> 01:12:44,986
he managed to play
the opposite in this film.
1290
01:12:47,614 --> 01:12:51,243
And a classic example of that
is right here obviously.
1291
01:12:52,285 --> 01:12:55,372
I choose to run toward my problems
and not away from them.
1292
01:12:56,623 --> 01:12:57,874
Because that's what...
1293
01:13:01,628 --> 01:13:04,232
WAITITI: And again, there you have it,
just with the way he jumps up
1294
01:13:04,256 --> 01:13:06,007
and straight back into it.
1295
01:13:06,091 --> 01:13:08,969
There's that kind of bravado
that you come to love from heroes.
1296
01:13:09,135 --> 01:13:11,012
When I first came in to do this film,
1297
01:13:11,304 --> 01:13:16,017
I'd been talking to Marvel
and we all agreed that...
1298
01:13:16,101 --> 01:13:17,561
Friend, stay!
1299
01:13:17,978 --> 01:13:19,854
...Thor needed
a little bit of an overhaul
1300
01:13:19,938 --> 01:13:23,483
and he needed to be
that kind of fun hero
1301
01:13:23,567 --> 01:13:26,987
that we wanted to follow on the journey.
1302
01:13:28,947 --> 01:13:35,120
I don't think you can do that when
your hero is super earnest and serious.
1303
01:13:40,875 --> 01:13:46,339
Chris really managed
to completely change Thor in a way
1304
01:13:46,464 --> 01:13:50,468
where he retained some of that
old, obviously, that Asgardian presence,
1305
01:13:50,552 --> 01:13:54,264
but the character has been on Earth
for a couple of years.
1306
01:13:54,472 --> 01:13:57,684
He's hung out with Tony Stark.
He knows sarcasm. He knows irony.
1307
01:13:58,643 --> 01:13:59,936
It's a lot of...
1308
01:14:00,812 --> 01:14:03,898
I think we've done a really good job
of making him,
1309
01:14:04,357 --> 01:14:06,985
making Thor
the best character in the film.
1310
01:14:07,569 --> 01:14:08,969
- (BEEPS)
- COMPUTER: Access denied.
1311
01:14:09,321 --> 01:14:10,822
(IN DEEP VOICE) Strongest Avenger.
1312
01:14:10,989 --> 01:14:12,449
- (BEEPS)
- Access denied.
1313
01:14:12,657 --> 01:14:14,659
(SIGHS) Damn you, Stark.
1314
01:14:15,035 --> 01:14:16,119
Point Break.
1315
01:14:16,286 --> 01:14:18,079
- Welcome, Point Break.
- (CHUCKLES)
1316
01:14:18,246 --> 01:14:19,581
WAITITI: Point Break obviously.
1317
01:14:20,081 --> 01:14:21,708
A reference to Avengers.
1318
01:14:21,875 --> 01:14:23,043
- Stay!
- No, no, no!
1319
01:14:23,168 --> 01:14:24,169
Stop!
1320
01:14:24,294 --> 01:14:25,494
- Stay!
- (QUINJET POWERS DOWN)
1321
01:14:26,129 --> 01:14:27,505
Stop! Stop breaking everything!
1322
01:14:27,756 --> 01:14:29,215
Don't go!
1323
01:14:30,967 --> 01:14:34,888
WAITITI: What happens here, this is
actually one of the moments in the film
1324
01:14:34,971 --> 01:14:37,974
that I love the most
and that I'm the most proud of.
1325
01:14:38,725 --> 01:14:41,728
And that's this transformation.
1326
01:14:41,811 --> 01:14:43,355
The fact that he's...
1327
01:14:46,733 --> 01:14:51,613
He is in conflict with Banner
and Banner's in conflict with Bruce
1328
01:14:51,696 --> 01:14:53,615
and they're both fighting
over this body.
1329
01:14:54,741 --> 01:14:56,534
This is a kind of
1330
01:14:57,077 --> 01:14:58,578
almost like Altered States.
1331
01:14:58,912 --> 01:15:05,293
Almost like that moment when
William Hurt is changing.
1332
01:15:05,543 --> 01:15:09,881
So this is a really
emotional moment here though.
1333
01:15:10,006 --> 01:15:12,759
You see the two of them battling it out.
1334
01:15:12,967 --> 01:15:15,929
I know there's a little bit more of
1335
01:15:18,223 --> 01:15:20,809
that conflict and that duality
1336
01:15:21,935 --> 01:15:28,066
that's gonna evolve between
Banner and the Hulk in upcoming movies.
1337
01:15:28,650 --> 01:15:29,984
That's it, breathe.
1338
01:15:30,443 --> 01:15:32,570
(EXHALES) I won't hurt you.
1339
01:15:34,072 --> 01:15:37,951
WAITITI: Of course,
there's Mark Ruffalo.
1340
01:15:38,159 --> 01:15:39,619
Some creepy old man cut it off.
1341
01:15:39,786 --> 01:15:41,204
- It looks good.
- Oh, thanks.
1342
01:15:41,371 --> 01:15:43,873
Where are we? Oh, how's Nat?
1343
01:15:44,165 --> 01:15:46,751
- Uh, Nat is good, I'm sure.
- Is she okay?
1344
01:15:46,918 --> 01:15:48,837
- And what about Sokovia?
- Sokovia?
1345
01:15:49,003 --> 01:15:50,672
The city, Sokovia. Did we save it?
1346
01:15:51,339 --> 01:15:53,591
WAITITI: These two work
so great together.
1347
01:15:54,175 --> 01:15:55,468
- What are you saying?
- Well...
1348
01:15:55,885 --> 01:15:56,970
What?
1349
01:15:57,721 --> 01:15:58,763
I've been Hulk for two...
1350
01:15:58,888 --> 01:16:02,225
WAITITI: They're really, one of my...
1351
01:16:04,102 --> 01:16:08,481
One of the things I was looking at
when I first came on was
1352
01:16:10,734 --> 01:16:13,445
sort of to use as a bit of inspiration
was Withnail and I.
1353
01:16:13,820 --> 01:16:15,822
It's a great British film...
1354
01:16:17,323 --> 01:16:18,366
Banner.
1355
01:16:19,242 --> 01:16:20,994
...with Richard E. Grant.
1356
01:16:22,412 --> 01:16:27,041
Just with the idea, when Marvel
first said, "It's like a kind of...
1357
01:16:27,584 --> 01:16:29,812
"It might be a little bit
like a road trip, a buddy flick,
1358
01:16:29,836 --> 01:16:31,436
"I wanna get these characters together."
1359
01:16:31,504 --> 01:16:32,922
Look at that cool shot.
1360
01:16:33,256 --> 01:16:34,549
Thor, where are we?
1361
01:16:35,675 --> 01:16:40,513
That was something I had in my mind
was one of the great British comedies
1362
01:16:40,680 --> 01:16:45,685
about these two actors who were out
in the country on a holiday.
1363
01:16:46,060 --> 01:16:47,562
He kind of runs the place.
1364
01:16:48,438 --> 01:16:51,441
What I really wanted from Chris and Mark
was just to have these two guys
1365
01:16:51,608 --> 01:16:55,069
and they're not at all
like those personalities from that film.
1366
01:16:55,904 --> 01:16:57,822
- Doesn't sound right.
- Well, it's true.
1367
01:16:57,906 --> 01:17:00,408
I feel like this film just shifts into
a whole new gear
1368
01:17:00,492 --> 01:17:01,576
when Mark comes into it.
1369
01:17:01,743 --> 01:17:05,330
Because he's so fun
and he's so great to watch.
1370
01:17:05,497 --> 01:17:07,540
And with him and Chris coupled together,
1371
01:17:08,082 --> 01:17:10,084
I feel like the whole film just,
1372
01:17:10,251 --> 01:17:13,421
the energy picks up and it just turns
into this whole other thing.
1373
01:17:13,713 --> 01:17:16,299
And just the way that they
would ad-lib together
1374
01:17:16,382 --> 01:17:19,010
and the way that they
would do these scenes.
1375
01:17:19,135 --> 01:17:22,263
We've got very, very long takes
that never made it into the film
1376
01:17:22,430 --> 01:17:25,433
where they would just riff off
each other and just go for it.
1377
01:17:26,351 --> 01:17:30,355
This one was seven or eight-minute takes
where they were just talking and talking
1378
01:17:30,814 --> 01:17:35,151
and some of that stuff
is some of the greatest comedy
1379
01:17:35,235 --> 01:17:38,029
and greatest acting
I've seen in a long time.
1380
01:17:38,196 --> 01:17:40,281
GRANDMASTER: I'm upset!
1381
01:17:42,742 --> 01:17:44,160
WAITITI: And that shot there.
1382
01:17:44,494 --> 01:17:46,913
Obviously the greatest shot
in the history of cinema,
1383
01:17:47,288 --> 01:17:50,166
designed by Todd Harris,
our storyboard artist.
1384
01:17:51,876 --> 01:17:57,340
Even then when he came in with that shot
of Valkyrie and Loki entering
1385
01:17:57,549 --> 01:17:59,189
and the camera sweeps
over the top of them
1386
01:17:59,259 --> 01:18:01,427
and then we look
into the reflection of the floor
1387
01:18:01,553 --> 01:18:03,429
and see the Grandmaster coming down.
1388
01:18:04,013 --> 01:18:06,224
Even when he presented
that shot to us, he said,
1389
01:18:06,307 --> 01:18:08,494
"I think this is the greatest shot
in the history of cinema."
1390
01:18:08,518 --> 01:18:11,771
And so now that's what...
That's how we know...
1391
01:18:12,939 --> 01:18:17,277
That's what we've come
to affectionately call that crazy shot.
1392
01:18:18,528 --> 01:18:22,824
This here is another moment
when Jeff managed to ad-lib
1393
01:18:22,949 --> 01:18:27,203
for a good four or five minutes
on a few different things
1394
01:18:27,370 --> 01:18:31,124
and just for pacing reasons,
we couldn't put it in the final movie,
1395
01:18:31,291 --> 01:18:33,167
but it will be an extra scene.
1396
01:18:33,251 --> 01:18:36,004
But he's just, when he's on fire
and he's just going for it,
1397
01:18:36,129 --> 01:18:37,881
it's quite amazing.
1398
01:18:38,131 --> 01:18:39,632
It's quite amazing to see this guy.
1399
01:18:39,924 --> 01:18:40,967
What have you done?
1400
01:18:41,050 --> 01:18:42,510
I don't answer to you, lackey.
1401
01:18:42,635 --> 01:18:43,636
It's Loki.
1402
01:18:43,803 --> 01:18:45,597
And you will answer to the Grandmaster.
1403
01:18:46,347 --> 01:18:48,099
- (GRUNTS)
- Hmm.
1404
01:18:48,266 --> 01:18:51,144
Why would you help my brother escape
with that green fool?
1405
01:18:51,269 --> 01:18:52,770
I don't help anyone.
1406
01:18:55,023 --> 01:18:58,276
WAITITI: These guys duking it out.
1407
01:18:58,860 --> 01:19:01,738
Valkyrie and Loki.
1408
01:19:01,863 --> 01:19:05,825
The thing that's about to come up though
is something so amazing.
1409
01:19:06,200 --> 01:19:08,620
And it's never been done in film before.
1410
01:19:08,828 --> 01:19:10,622
And this flashback.
1411
01:19:10,955 --> 01:19:12,582
What I'm talking about
is this flashback.
1412
01:19:12,707 --> 01:19:14,027
I'm not talking about flashbacks.
1413
01:19:14,125 --> 01:19:16,005
I know flashbacks
have been done on film before.
1414
01:19:16,294 --> 01:19:20,256
But, the style of lighting in this.
1415
01:19:20,632 --> 01:19:23,343
This lighting effect
in this little flashback here
1416
01:19:23,676 --> 01:19:26,596
was designed and invented by
two friends of mine
1417
01:19:26,679 --> 01:19:30,016
I went to school with.
Carlo Van de Roer and Stu Rutherford.
1418
01:19:30,141 --> 01:19:34,270
And Stu Rutherford actually,
fun fact five million,
1419
01:19:34,604 --> 01:19:39,067
Stu Rutherford plays Stu
in What We Do in the Shadows.
1420
01:19:40,151 --> 01:19:42,028
They've both been
childhood friends of mine.
1421
01:19:42,153 --> 01:19:44,530
They invented this almost
bullet-time lighting
1422
01:19:44,656 --> 01:19:47,033
where you set up an array of lights
1423
01:19:47,158 --> 01:19:48,576
over a hundred lights.
1424
01:19:50,161 --> 01:19:53,373
They're all strobes.
They're all gonna flash once or twice.
1425
01:19:54,666 --> 01:19:56,834
They all set off.
1426
01:19:56,960 --> 01:19:59,796
They all go off one after each other
1427
01:20:00,922 --> 01:20:02,048
in quick succession
1428
01:20:02,131 --> 01:20:04,717
and the whole thing happens
in less than a second.
1429
01:20:04,884 --> 01:20:07,136
And then you film those
little bits of footage
1430
01:20:07,345 --> 01:20:08,545
with a very high speed camera.
1431
01:20:08,638 --> 01:20:11,099
So instead of the camera
wrapping around like in The Matrix,
1432
01:20:11,224 --> 01:20:13,101
it's the lights that
are wrapping around,
1433
01:20:13,184 --> 01:20:16,312
so it casts these huge shadows
everywhere, across the walls.
1434
01:20:16,521 --> 01:20:19,565
And it's an effect
that can only be achieved
1435
01:20:20,108 --> 01:20:22,068
by setting up the lights that way.
1436
01:20:22,193 --> 01:20:23,754
Now you've been on two.
That's a good thing.
1437
01:20:23,778 --> 01:20:25,005
Yeah, I'm really proud of those guys
1438
01:20:25,029 --> 01:20:27,824
and I'm really stoked
that I managed to get that in the film.
1439
01:20:27,949 --> 01:20:29,534
...my brain can handle the information.
1440
01:20:29,867 --> 01:20:31,136
The whole thing is totally different...
1441
01:20:31,160 --> 01:20:37,291
WAITITI: We have a classic Nagel,
Naa-gull, Nay-gull illustration
1442
01:20:40,211 --> 01:20:41,671
on Banner's T-shirt
1443
01:20:41,838 --> 01:20:43,923
which actually happens to be
Tony Stark's T-shirt.
1444
01:20:44,132 --> 01:20:46,801
So Banner's now wearing
Tony Stark's clothes.
1445
01:20:48,553 --> 01:20:53,016
I love that image of this guy
in a Duran Duran T-shirt
1446
01:20:54,726 --> 01:20:58,062
on an alien planet
and an '80s suit jacket.
1447
01:20:59,814 --> 01:21:01,941
And Thor and a space Viking.
1448
01:21:02,066 --> 01:21:04,569
I mean, how much more fun
can a movie get?
1449
01:21:04,694 --> 01:21:06,362
Okay, that is so wrong on so many...
1450
01:21:06,863 --> 01:21:08,156
WAITITI: Answer?
1451
01:21:08,489 --> 01:21:11,784
About 84% more fun.
1452
01:21:11,993 --> 01:21:13,619
Because it just keeps going.
1453
01:21:13,786 --> 01:21:14,787
I'm sick of it.
1454
01:21:14,954 --> 01:21:16,039
- What?
- I just told you.
1455
01:21:16,122 --> 01:21:19,250
If I turn into the Hulk,
I am never gonna come back again.
1456
01:21:19,333 --> 01:21:20,376
And you don't care.
1457
01:21:20,460 --> 01:21:22,086
No, no. I'm putting together the team.
1458
01:21:22,253 --> 01:21:23,588
The Hulk is the fire.
1459
01:21:23,755 --> 01:21:25,555
Wait, you're just using me
to get to the Hulk.
1460
01:21:25,590 --> 01:21:27,300
- What? No!
- It's gross.
1461
01:21:27,425 --> 01:21:29,225
You don't care about me.
You're not my friend.
1462
01:21:29,302 --> 01:21:32,346
No! I don't even like the Hulk.
He's all like,
1463
01:21:32,513 --> 01:21:34,057
"Smash, smash, smash."
1464
01:21:34,265 --> 01:21:35,433
I prefer you.
1465
01:21:36,684 --> 01:21:37,685
Thanks.
1466
01:21:38,019 --> 01:21:41,397
But if I'm being honest, when it comes
to fighting evil beings,
1467
01:21:41,481 --> 01:21:42,565
he is very powerful...
1468
01:21:42,648 --> 01:21:44,609
WAITITI: I'm currently
looking through the window
1469
01:21:44,692 --> 01:21:47,361
of this recording booth at my daughter
1470
01:21:47,695 --> 01:21:52,492
who is playing "Who's trying to steal
a phone" from the technician.
1471
01:21:54,869 --> 01:21:58,039
Someone needs to supervise their child.
1472
01:21:59,332 --> 01:22:02,460
Maybe the technician
can just supervise her.
1473
01:22:04,212 --> 01:22:05,755
- I'll be Tony Stark.
- What?
1474
01:22:05,922 --> 01:22:07,548
Yeah. Tony and the gypsy.
1475
01:22:07,673 --> 01:22:09,342
WAITITI: And now the look is complete.
1476
01:22:09,634 --> 01:22:12,095
Bruce Banner as Tony Stark.
1477
01:22:12,678 --> 01:22:14,597
Tony Stark and a gypsy.
1478
01:22:14,972 --> 01:22:16,366
What are you doing? Stop doing that!
1479
01:22:16,390 --> 01:22:17,725
Tony wears his pants super tight.
1480
01:22:17,892 --> 01:22:18,976
- Stop it!
- I'm sorry.
1481
01:22:19,185 --> 01:22:20,945
- Why are you being so weird?
- I don't know.
1482
01:22:20,978 --> 01:22:23,248
WAITITI: I really wanted to make fun
of Tony Stark's clothes
1483
01:22:23,272 --> 01:22:28,069
because I think in some of those movies,
they seem very funny to me.
1484
01:22:28,820 --> 01:22:35,493
Some of the funny T-shirt designs
and his funky trendy clothes
1485
01:22:36,994 --> 01:22:38,579
that he always wears.
1486
01:22:39,455 --> 01:22:41,833
Uh-oh. Trying to keep your mind off
the Incredible Hulk.
1487
01:22:44,252 --> 01:22:47,380
Bad move, we just walked
into a Hulk festival.
1488
01:22:49,090 --> 01:22:50,091
Banner!
1489
01:22:54,762 --> 01:22:56,097
Banner!
1490
01:22:59,642 --> 01:23:04,105
WAITITI: We had a lot of interns working
on the film in the art department
1491
01:23:04,272 --> 01:23:08,943
making all of these Hulk masks
and Hulk banners and everything.
1492
01:23:09,861 --> 01:23:13,364
A lot of them were
from the local Aboriginal community
1493
01:23:13,531 --> 01:23:17,702
who came in and we wanted to give them
a chance to come and work on a film
1494
01:23:17,785 --> 01:23:20,121
and to see what it's like on film sets.
1495
01:23:20,204 --> 01:23:22,665
Because when I was growing up
in New Zealand
1496
01:23:22,748 --> 01:23:24,667
I had never been on a film set before.
1497
01:23:25,793 --> 01:23:31,090
I think having any of those experiences
when you're young can really inspire you
1498
01:23:31,174 --> 01:23:32,842
and it can change your life.
1499
01:23:33,551 --> 01:23:37,138
They did really well and some of them
continued to work
1500
01:23:37,263 --> 01:23:38,681
for the art department.
1501
01:23:39,265 --> 01:23:42,018
They managed to get jobs
out of this experience.
1502
01:23:42,226 --> 01:23:43,787
Your hair looks nice.
I like what you did with it.
1503
01:23:43,811 --> 01:23:45,354
Change it? Washed it maybe?
1504
01:23:45,688 --> 01:23:48,191
WAITITI: These two
made this up on the day.
1505
01:23:51,068 --> 01:23:54,655
All this flirtatious stuff
was just made up on the spot.
1506
01:23:55,740 --> 01:23:57,033
Who is this guy?
1507
01:23:57,533 --> 01:24:01,829
WAITITI: And I like to think it makes it
just that little bit more genuine.
1508
01:24:06,375 --> 01:24:08,961
Here's one of the great moments
in cinema right here.
1509
01:24:09,462 --> 01:24:11,047
This shot and this shot.
1510
01:24:13,299 --> 01:24:16,427
As a filmmaker, I don't mind telling you
1511
01:24:16,844 --> 01:24:20,681
that something this simple
is sometimes all you need.
1512
01:24:20,848 --> 01:24:22,433
You don't need fancy camera moves.
1513
01:24:23,142 --> 01:24:26,896
Just lock it off and have them stare
as close to the barrel as possible
1514
01:24:27,605 --> 01:24:29,607
and say their damn lines.
1515
01:24:30,650 --> 01:24:35,071
Revengers line, that was something
that came up on the day.
1516
01:24:37,365 --> 01:24:38,950
I think Chris said it was his idea.
1517
01:24:39,116 --> 01:24:42,495
I don't know, I feel like
I had a big part of that.
1518
01:24:42,828 --> 01:24:46,415
I'm sure other people have said
the Revengers instead of Avengers.
1519
01:24:46,499 --> 01:24:48,834
So let's just all take credit for it.
1520
01:24:49,293 --> 01:24:51,337
I've got a peace offering.
1521
01:24:54,257 --> 01:24:56,657
WAITITI: I definitely invented vertical
sliding doors though,
1522
01:24:56,717 --> 01:24:57,760
I'll tell you that.
1523
01:25:01,973 --> 01:25:03,140
Classic.
1524
01:25:03,224 --> 01:25:04,725
Just had to be sure.
1525
01:25:07,103 --> 01:25:10,481
WAITITI: And behind Banner there
is an alien trash can.
1526
01:25:10,940 --> 01:25:14,277
So, last time I saw you,
you were trying to kill everybody.
1527
01:25:14,527 --> 01:25:15,653
Where are you at these days?
1528
01:25:15,736 --> 01:25:17,655
It varies from moment to moment.
1529
01:25:18,656 --> 01:25:20,199
THOR: Is that a Dragonfang?
1530
01:25:20,491 --> 01:25:21,492
It is.
1531
01:25:21,575 --> 01:25:23,035
My God.
1532
01:25:23,202 --> 01:25:26,455
WAITITI: Dragonfang is
the famed sword of the Valkyrie,
1533
01:25:26,664 --> 01:25:29,166
and it is famed,
and it is from the comics
1534
01:25:29,292 --> 01:25:34,255
and is her famous magical sword.
1535
01:25:34,672 --> 01:25:35,715
...18 months.
1536
01:25:35,798 --> 01:25:37,758
Nope. We are going through...
1537
01:25:37,842 --> 01:25:41,595
WAITITI: You'll see later on in the film
it'll be used in the Devil's Anus.
1538
01:25:41,762 --> 01:25:43,180
And here's a note...
1539
01:25:44,432 --> 01:25:47,072
Who would've thought we'd make a movie
with the Devil's Anus in it?
1540
01:25:47,101 --> 01:25:49,437
MATUA: I want a coffee.
1541
01:25:49,603 --> 01:25:51,043
- WAITITI: You want a coffee?
- Yeah.
1542
01:25:51,105 --> 01:25:52,708
WAITITI: Okay, this is...
WOMAN: Would you like a coffee?
1543
01:25:52,732 --> 01:25:54,252
WAITITI: Come on. Oh, I'd love coffee.
1544
01:25:54,400 --> 01:25:55,720
WOMAN: Yeah, what can we get you?
1545
01:25:56,110 --> 01:25:57,987
MATUA: Nice coffee.
1546
01:25:59,822 --> 01:26:01,324
WAITITI: You don't drink coffee.
1547
01:26:01,490 --> 01:26:03,635
I need to tell everyone here
that you don't drink coffee.
1548
01:26:03,659 --> 01:26:04,660
Do you drink coffee?
1549
01:26:05,494 --> 01:26:07,538
- MATUA: Yeah.
- No, you don't.
1550
01:26:08,122 --> 01:26:09,442
WAITITI: Stay there. She doesn't.
1551
01:26:09,749 --> 01:26:11,518
She doesn't, you guys.
She doesn't drink coffee.
1552
01:26:11,542 --> 01:26:12,585
What do you want?
1553
01:26:12,710 --> 01:26:13,878
MATUA: I wanna drink coffee.
1554
01:26:14,045 --> 01:26:15,713
WAITITI: No, you don't. Have some water.
1555
01:26:16,047 --> 01:26:17,048
MATUA: No.
1556
01:26:17,214 --> 01:26:18,674
WAITITI: You don't drink coffee.
1557
01:26:20,051 --> 01:26:21,531
Now everyone thinks you drink coffee.
1558
01:26:21,886 --> 01:26:25,556
They think it's a normal thing
and now that I'm just...
1559
01:26:25,639 --> 01:26:29,101
MATUA: You want coffee?
1560
01:26:29,477 --> 01:26:30,853
WAITITI: I want coffee. Yeah.
1561
01:26:31,020 --> 01:26:33,105
Heavens, no.
I've run out of favor with...
1562
01:26:33,272 --> 01:26:35,900
WAITITI: Jeez, Valkyrie lives
like a slob, doesn't she, guys?
1563
01:26:35,983 --> 01:26:39,070
I'm asking for safe passage
through the Anus.
1564
01:26:39,528 --> 01:26:42,365
You're telling us that you can get us
access into the garage
1565
01:26:42,531 --> 01:26:43,991
without setting off any alarms?
1566
01:26:44,158 --> 01:26:45,826
Yes, brother. I can.
1567
01:26:45,993 --> 01:26:49,789
WAITITI: We tried to fill up this film
with lots of these little stories
1568
01:26:49,872 --> 01:26:51,749
that Chris is about to tell.
1569
01:26:53,751 --> 01:26:55,711
Just little anecdotes about him and Loki
1570
01:26:55,878 --> 01:26:58,506
and times that Loki's tried to kill him.
1571
01:26:58,672 --> 01:27:02,343
And so throughout the film we actually
got a lot of these little things,
1572
01:27:04,678 --> 01:27:06,263
which I personally love.
1573
01:27:09,308 --> 01:27:11,161
Also for their relationship,
I think it's really funny
1574
01:27:11,185 --> 01:27:14,021
that ever since they were seven
1575
01:27:14,188 --> 01:27:15,248
they've been trying to kill each other.
1576
01:27:15,272 --> 01:27:16,315
You guys have a beast?
1577
01:27:16,399 --> 01:27:18,859
But because they're gods obviously...
1578
01:27:19,318 --> 01:27:20,918
THOR: We're going to start a revolution.
1579
01:27:21,028 --> 01:27:22,388
- Revolution?
- I'll explain later.
1580
01:27:22,655 --> 01:27:25,116
- Who's this guy again?
- I'll explain later.
1581
01:27:26,033 --> 01:27:28,702
Is that some sort of protoplasm,
all the stuff...
1582
01:27:28,911 --> 01:27:31,956
WAITITI: These little eggs beneath Miek.
1583
01:27:32,123 --> 01:27:35,126
I like to think that one day
they all grow into other Mieks.
1584
01:27:35,751 --> 01:27:37,628
- Oh!
- (CLATTERING)
1585
01:27:43,134 --> 01:27:44,427
I'm looking for Korg.
1586
01:27:44,593 --> 01:27:45,886
Who's asking?
1587
01:27:46,053 --> 01:27:47,221
I know you're asking.
1588
01:27:47,388 --> 01:27:49,390
Is anyone else asking,
or is it just you?
1589
01:27:49,557 --> 01:27:51,642
The Lord of Thunder sends his best.
1590
01:27:51,809 --> 01:27:53,745
WAITITI: We shot another
revolution scene after this
1591
01:27:53,769 --> 01:27:58,691
where Korg is trying
to organize his revolutionaries
1592
01:27:58,858 --> 01:28:01,652
and they're all in the weapons vault
choosing weapons.
1593
01:28:01,819 --> 01:28:03,320
And it's just going awfully
1594
01:28:03,487 --> 01:28:09,326
and it becomes really apparent that Korg
has no idea how to run a revolution.
1595
01:28:12,246 --> 01:28:15,499
He's actually not a natural born leader.
1596
01:28:16,750 --> 01:28:18,002
Unlike me.
1597
01:28:18,294 --> 01:28:20,337
I think I'm a great leader.
1598
01:28:20,880 --> 01:28:22,506
I've got a lot of leadership quality.
1599
01:28:22,673 --> 01:28:25,426
Lot of qualities
that you'd want in a leader.
1600
01:28:25,593 --> 01:28:28,345
Like... I'm fun,
1601
01:28:28,471 --> 01:28:30,431
I like long walks on the beach.
1602
01:28:30,514 --> 01:28:31,974
Um... And, um...
1603
01:28:32,057 --> 01:28:34,393
Open communication
was never our family's forte.
1604
01:28:34,477 --> 01:28:35,769
You have no idea.
1605
01:28:35,853 --> 01:28:37,813
And I like to sleep all the time.
1606
01:28:39,023 --> 01:28:40,024
Hello.
1607
01:28:40,399 --> 01:28:41,400
Hi.
1608
01:28:42,151 --> 01:28:43,569
WAITITI: Fans love this moment.
1609
01:28:43,652 --> 01:28:46,739
The brothers together again
fighting side by side.
1610
01:28:47,531 --> 01:28:50,951
It was actually a very satisfying
part of the story,
1611
01:28:51,410 --> 01:28:57,791
seeing these two brothers
finally working together.
1612
01:28:59,960 --> 01:29:02,046
We might as well be strangers now.
1613
01:29:02,213 --> 01:29:05,424
Two sons of the crown, set adrift.
1614
01:29:05,841 --> 01:29:07,676
- Oh.
- (SPEAKING ALIEN LANGUAGE)
1615
01:29:08,677 --> 01:29:10,304
Thought you didn't wanna talk about it.
1616
01:29:11,847 --> 01:29:12,848
Here's the thing.
1617
01:29:12,973 --> 01:29:14,659
I'm probably better off staying here
on Sakaar.
1618
01:29:14,683 --> 01:29:16,393
That's exactly what I was thinking.
1619
01:29:18,354 --> 01:29:19,772
Did you just agree with me?
1620
01:29:19,939 --> 01:29:21,524
Come on, this place is perfect for you.
1621
01:29:21,690 --> 01:29:23,275
It's savage, chaotic, lawless...
1622
01:29:23,442 --> 01:29:24,544
Brother, you're gonna do great here.
1623
01:29:24,568 --> 01:29:27,071
WAITITI: Spoiler: This was not shot
in an elevator
1624
01:29:27,488 --> 01:29:28,906
on another planet.
1625
01:29:29,240 --> 01:29:30,991
Loki, I thought the world of you.
1626
01:29:32,159 --> 01:29:34,495
I thought we were gonna fight
side by side forever.
1627
01:29:34,662 --> 01:29:37,790
But at the end of the day,
you're you and I'm me.
1628
01:29:38,332 --> 01:29:40,132
I don't know,
maybe there's still good in you.
1629
01:29:40,376 --> 01:29:43,295
WAITITI: Fun fact number seven.
1630
01:29:45,923 --> 01:29:47,758
Chris and Tom are not actual brothers.
1631
01:29:48,509 --> 01:29:50,219
Yeah.
1632
01:29:50,302 --> 01:29:53,764
They're actually from
different countries in fact.
1633
01:29:54,473 --> 01:29:57,035
Although you'd never know because
they look exactly the same, don't they?
1634
01:29:57,059 --> 01:29:58,686
They look like twins.
1635
01:29:59,311 --> 01:30:00,729
Hey, let's do "Get Help."
1636
01:30:01,230 --> 01:30:02,314
- What?
- "Get Help."
1637
01:30:02,398 --> 01:30:03,399
No.
1638
01:30:03,482 --> 01:30:04,584
- Come on, you love it.
- I hate it.
1639
01:30:04,608 --> 01:30:05,794
It's great. It works every time.
1640
01:30:05,818 --> 01:30:08,696
WAITITI: How're you guys enjoying
this director's commentary so far?
1641
01:30:08,862 --> 01:30:11,031
We're not doing "Get Help."
1642
01:30:11,282 --> 01:30:13,200
- (ELEVATOR BELL DINGS)
- Get help! Please!
1643
01:30:13,534 --> 01:30:16,374
WAITITI: I looked through the window
and one person gave me a thumbs-up.
1644
01:30:18,581 --> 01:30:20,291
Another one has too.
1645
01:30:21,041 --> 01:30:22,376
Two people so far
1646
01:30:23,294 --> 01:30:24,295
enjoying it.
1647
01:30:24,378 --> 01:30:26,255
Now, which one's the ship
she told us to get?
1648
01:30:26,463 --> 01:30:27,798
The Commodore.
1649
01:30:28,173 --> 01:30:30,151
WAITITI: Okay, the Commodore.
Look at that cool ship.
1650
01:30:30,175 --> 01:30:31,969
So the coloring of that ship,
1651
01:30:32,845 --> 01:30:36,432
I'll tell you right now,
is inspired by the Aboriginal flag.
1652
01:30:36,849 --> 01:30:39,518
So, it's red, yellow and black.
1653
01:30:41,770 --> 01:30:44,773
Being in Australia, I was really struck
by the culture there.
1654
01:30:44,982 --> 01:30:47,192
And I brought a lot of those things,
and I thought,
1655
01:30:47,276 --> 01:30:51,322
"You know what? Let's make
the hero's spaceship in this movie
1656
01:30:51,572 --> 01:30:55,284
"the color of the original people
from Australia,
1657
01:30:55,451 --> 01:30:57,786
"the color of their flag."
1658
01:30:59,455 --> 01:31:02,541
So when you see this thing
flying through, it's like this...
1659
01:31:05,294 --> 01:31:11,050
It's like they're escaping
from Sakaar in the Aboriginal flag.
1660
01:31:11,175 --> 01:31:14,136
It made me very proud
to have those colors there.
1661
01:31:15,346 --> 01:31:19,892
Not many people know
that the coloring of Valkyrie's ship,
1662
01:31:20,059 --> 01:31:23,145
they are the colors of the Maori flag,
1663
01:31:23,729 --> 01:31:25,648
the native peoples of New Zealand.
1664
01:31:28,025 --> 01:31:29,526
Nothing political, just cool.
1665
01:31:29,610 --> 01:31:31,028
So good luck, I guess.
1666
01:31:36,283 --> 01:31:37,868
All right, you can figure this out.
1667
01:31:38,035 --> 01:31:40,120
WAITITI: All of these spaceships
in this film
1668
01:31:40,287 --> 01:31:42,331
are all named.
This is called the Commodore.
1669
01:31:43,540 --> 01:31:46,335
There's another great big spaceship
1670
01:31:47,378 --> 01:31:49,588
that features later on,
that's called the Statesman.
1671
01:31:49,755 --> 01:31:51,799
All these other spaceships that join
1672
01:31:53,175 --> 01:31:55,260
in this big Sakaarian chase...
1673
01:31:56,053 --> 01:31:57,471
There's a Torana,
1674
01:31:57,638 --> 01:31:59,264
there's an Escort,
1675
01:31:59,431 --> 01:32:01,934
there's a Kingswood.
1676
01:32:02,935 --> 01:32:04,937
These are all names of
1677
01:32:06,313 --> 01:32:08,857
Holdens, Holden cars,
1678
01:32:09,024 --> 01:32:11,193
which are Australia, New Zealand cars.
1679
01:32:16,699 --> 01:32:19,243
Yeah, they're all named after
1680
01:32:19,410 --> 01:32:23,706
the great Australian
and New Zealand vehicles
1681
01:32:23,914 --> 01:32:27,584
of the '70s, '80s, '90s and 2000s.
1682
01:32:29,712 --> 01:32:31,463
I hope that you're
tougher than you look.
1683
01:32:31,797 --> 01:32:32,798
Why?
1684
01:32:33,215 --> 01:32:34,466
(SCREAMING)
1685
01:32:36,760 --> 01:32:38,762
- (GROANING)
- (LAUGHS)
1686
01:32:40,723 --> 01:32:43,976
WAITITI: I'm particularly proud of
the interior of the Commodore
1687
01:32:44,560 --> 01:32:47,813
with all the orange,
all the bold colors and lines.
1688
01:32:49,022 --> 01:32:50,302
Where are the guns on this ship?
1689
01:32:50,441 --> 01:32:53,068
WAITITI: That just says
'70s lounge suite
1690
01:32:54,153 --> 01:32:56,822
in the form of a spaceship, to me.
1691
01:32:57,322 --> 01:32:59,700
Did she just say the Grandmaster
uses it for orgies?
1692
01:32:59,783 --> 01:33:00,826
Yeah.
1693
01:33:00,909 --> 01:33:02,262
WAITITI: There's actually
a deleted scene.
1694
01:33:02,286 --> 01:33:04,406
In the back there,
you see this orange and white door.
1695
01:33:04,580 --> 01:33:07,416
Beyond that is a sort of dining room set
1696
01:33:07,583 --> 01:33:09,543
with a big round table
1697
01:33:10,043 --> 01:33:11,688
and there's drinks cabinets
and stuff, and again,
1698
01:33:11,712 --> 01:33:13,589
it looks like a '70s lounge room.
1699
01:33:14,089 --> 01:33:15,549
'70s dining room.
1700
01:33:18,469 --> 01:33:20,471
Just for length,
we got rid of that scene.
1701
01:33:22,347 --> 01:33:26,935
But in the deleted scenes,
we'll probably include that scene
1702
01:33:27,102 --> 01:33:30,355
and you'll see just how great
the rest of that set is.
1703
01:33:31,482 --> 01:33:34,234
I also love the idea of them escaping
from this planet
1704
01:33:34,401 --> 01:33:38,655
in a luxury vehicle, in a vehicle
designed really just for parties
1705
01:33:40,616 --> 01:33:41,992
and drinking
1706
01:33:45,037 --> 01:33:46,413
and orgies.
1707
01:33:49,166 --> 01:33:51,366
I should probably go and help her.
Here, take the wheel.
1708
01:33:51,418 --> 01:33:52,937
No. I don't know how to fly
one of these.
1709
01:33:52,961 --> 01:33:55,047
Yeah, you're a scientist.
Use one of your PhDs.
1710
01:33:55,172 --> 01:33:58,217
None of them are for flying
alien spaceships!
1711
01:33:58,550 --> 01:34:00,677
WAITITI: Now we see Thor and Valkyrie
1712
01:34:00,844 --> 01:34:03,472
dancing around these spaceships,
blowing them up.
1713
01:34:03,847 --> 01:34:06,850
If you will,
it's sort of like a mating dance
1714
01:34:07,017 --> 01:34:09,603
of these two characters.
1715
01:34:10,312 --> 01:34:12,064
A sort of courtship,
1716
01:34:12,439 --> 01:34:16,109
a bit like two animals
impressing each other
1717
01:34:16,276 --> 01:34:20,030
with their skills
and with their peacocking.
1718
01:34:24,243 --> 01:34:27,454
This is cool, like two gods
1719
01:34:27,621 --> 01:34:30,582
who are jumping around
destroying spaceships.
1720
01:34:31,708 --> 01:34:33,001
I think that's pretty awesome.
1721
01:34:33,168 --> 01:34:35,754
Come on! There's gotta be a gun
on this thing.
1722
01:34:35,921 --> 01:34:36,964
That looks like a gun.
1723
01:34:38,173 --> 01:34:40,801
GRANDMASTER: (SINGING) It's my birthday
It's my birthday
1724
01:34:41,260 --> 01:34:43,971
It's my birthday
1725
01:34:46,056 --> 01:34:49,685
WAITITI: I would like to release
the It's My Birthday song
1726
01:34:49,852 --> 01:34:51,937
as its own special
1727
01:34:54,273 --> 01:34:55,274
hit.
1728
01:34:56,024 --> 01:34:58,861
A special individual song.
1729
01:34:59,027 --> 01:35:03,240
Instead of Happy Birthday, people could
sing It's My Birthday instead.
1730
01:35:04,449 --> 01:35:05,492
Easier.
1731
01:35:05,659 --> 01:35:09,079
Because for Happy Birthday, you need
other people to sing that for you.
1732
01:35:09,246 --> 01:35:12,583
With It's My Birthday, you can just
do it by yourself, for yourself.
1733
01:35:13,375 --> 01:35:16,336
Now, we're about to take you
into the Devil's Anus.
1734
01:35:17,129 --> 01:35:18,630
Oh, look, there you go. There! Look!
1735
01:35:18,797 --> 01:35:20,966
Hajo, that guy over there
with the three heads.
1736
01:35:21,717 --> 01:35:24,720
See the guy on the right? The head
on the right? That's my face.
1737
01:35:25,512 --> 01:35:28,223
A lot of these guys,
or a lot of these gladiators
1738
01:35:28,307 --> 01:35:31,059
are named after friends of mine.
1739
01:35:32,477 --> 01:35:35,397
That guy there, the three-headed guy
is called Hajo.
1740
01:35:36,648 --> 01:35:38,859
He's named after my friend Stellan Hajo.
1741
01:35:40,777 --> 01:35:42,696
Another character in there,
1742
01:35:43,530 --> 01:35:45,782
the one with the sort of pancake face
1743
01:35:45,949 --> 01:35:49,286
called Tasba,
he's named after my friend Tasba.
1744
01:35:50,120 --> 01:35:51,872
She does not have a pancake face.
1745
01:35:54,124 --> 01:35:55,751
There's another one called
1746
01:35:57,794 --> 01:36:00,923
Ejashi, which is named
after my friend Bird.
1747
01:36:02,758 --> 01:36:04,384
There, and there was more.
1748
01:36:04,509 --> 01:36:06,237
There's more, I'm not gonna
keep naming them all
1749
01:36:06,261 --> 01:36:08,555
because we're in a wormhole
and we're going into Asgard!
1750
01:36:09,181 --> 01:36:10,557
SKURGE: Asgardians!
1751
01:36:11,433 --> 01:36:14,019
Some misguided soul
1752
01:36:14,603 --> 01:36:16,688
has stolen the Bifrost sword.
1753
01:36:16,939 --> 01:36:18,482
Tell us where it is...
1754
01:36:18,690 --> 01:36:20,043
WAITITI: Sometimes when I think
about this film
1755
01:36:20,067 --> 01:36:21,526
and all the things that are in it,
1756
01:36:23,445 --> 01:36:27,115
I feel like if you were to tell people
about this, they wouldn't believe
1757
01:36:28,283 --> 01:36:30,160
that this is actually a movie.
1758
01:36:31,578 --> 01:36:33,664
"Yeah, no, it's got this
woman with antlers in it,
1759
01:36:33,747 --> 01:36:35,290
"and a giant wolf,
1760
01:36:38,001 --> 01:36:39,628
"and this big angry green guy,
1761
01:36:39,962 --> 01:36:41,630
"a space Viking,
1762
01:36:42,589 --> 01:36:45,634
"this guy with these weird triangles
on his head,
1763
01:36:49,096 --> 01:36:50,639
"zombie army,
1764
01:36:52,432 --> 01:36:53,976
"magical swords."
1765
01:36:57,688 --> 01:37:00,190
You name it, we put it in the movie.
1766
01:37:07,906 --> 01:37:09,408
"Don't do it, Skurge!"
1767
01:37:09,866 --> 01:37:11,986
That's what I'd be yelling out,
if I was in the crowd.
1768
01:37:13,370 --> 01:37:15,539
"Come on, Skurge! Don't do it!"
1769
01:37:15,789 --> 01:37:16,957
Well...
1770
01:37:18,083 --> 01:37:19,626
Executioner?
1771
01:37:24,464 --> 01:37:26,383
- (ALL GASP)
- MAN: Wait!
1772
01:37:27,759 --> 01:37:29,529
WAITITI: Oh, thank goodness
someone stopped him.
1773
01:37:29,553 --> 01:37:30,679
I know where the sword is.
1774
01:37:37,269 --> 01:37:38,437
WAITITI: Now,
1775
01:37:40,355 --> 01:37:42,733
we leave Sakaar behind
1776
01:37:43,108 --> 01:37:49,114
and we have found ourselves
back with our heroes
1777
01:37:50,991 --> 01:37:52,617
in Asgard.
1778
01:38:06,757 --> 01:38:08,800
There it is in all its glory.
1779
01:38:13,638 --> 01:38:15,474
I never thought I'd be back here.
1780
01:38:19,311 --> 01:38:21,146
BANNER: I thought it'd be a lot nicer.
1781
01:38:21,313 --> 01:38:24,316
I mean, not that it's not nice.
It's just, it's on fire.
1782
01:38:24,483 --> 01:38:27,152
WAITITI: That pipe organ house
is very tall, isn't it?
1783
01:38:28,653 --> 01:38:30,739
I hope they have elevators in there.
1784
01:38:31,865 --> 01:38:35,535
Maybe not, maybe that's why
Asgardians thighs and calves
1785
01:38:35,619 --> 01:38:37,287
are so muscular and strong.
1786
01:38:37,621 --> 01:38:39,414
They have to walk everywhere.
1787
01:38:40,165 --> 01:38:41,583
I have a man on the ground.
1788
01:38:42,751 --> 01:38:44,961
(LOW INDISTINCT CHATTERING)
1789
01:38:47,881 --> 01:38:48,882
Asgard.
1790
01:38:50,550 --> 01:38:51,903
WAITITI: These two girls
from the beginning.
1791
01:38:51,927 --> 01:38:53,529
Do you remember them,
everyone, do you remember?
1792
01:38:53,553 --> 01:38:56,139
They were in the Observatory
with Skurge.
1793
01:39:04,981 --> 01:39:06,691
Now the ship has a gun.
1794
01:39:06,775 --> 01:39:07,943
I'll take it from here.
1795
01:39:09,027 --> 01:39:11,780
I found this in the armory.
1796
01:39:15,325 --> 01:39:16,535
Good luck.
1797
01:39:16,993 --> 01:39:19,037
WAITITI: I like how considerate Thor is.
1798
01:39:19,121 --> 01:39:20,997
I'm eating a carrot right now
as I talk to you.
1799
01:39:21,081 --> 01:39:22,541
...don't die.
1800
01:39:22,749 --> 01:39:24,751
I like the fact that Thor...
1801
01:39:24,918 --> 01:39:26,211
You know what I mean.
1802
01:39:26,753 --> 01:39:29,297
WAITITI: He was thinking about Valkyrie,
he was just like,
1803
01:39:29,714 --> 01:39:31,758
"I'll go off and not only get a weapon.
1804
01:39:32,217 --> 01:39:34,636
"I'll go get some clothes for her
as well to inspire her.
1805
01:39:35,137 --> 01:39:38,348
"Give her a sense of place.
1806
01:39:38,974 --> 01:39:40,517
“Help her get her identity back.
1807
01:39:40,642 --> 01:39:43,228
"She's been running from the truth
and running from her past."
1808
01:39:44,020 --> 01:39:46,857
He's just given her an opportunity
1809
01:39:47,524 --> 01:39:50,443
to embrace it,
to acknowledge who she is.
1810
01:39:50,569 --> 01:39:52,028
She's a Valkyrie,
1811
01:39:52,195 --> 01:39:54,281
an elite warrior of Asgard.
1812
01:39:58,785 --> 01:39:59,911
Holy cow!
1813
01:40:00,787 --> 01:40:02,205
Hela is so powerful.
1814
01:40:04,082 --> 01:40:06,501
She just tore that mountain apart
1815
01:40:07,502 --> 01:40:09,671
and made a bridge
out of these two doors.
1816
01:40:15,260 --> 01:40:16,636
But slightly too late.
1817
01:40:16,720 --> 01:40:18,930
They went out the back door down there.
Do you see that?
1818
01:40:21,474 --> 01:40:23,018
Just in the nick of time.
1819
01:40:25,937 --> 01:40:27,606
HEIMDALL: We must keep moving!
1820
01:40:28,773 --> 01:40:31,568
WAITITI: Keep going, Asgardians!
Keep going!
1821
01:40:34,571 --> 01:40:36,990
You can tell they're exhausted,
those poor Asgardians.
1822
01:40:37,073 --> 01:40:38,325
They've been through hell.
1823
01:40:38,783 --> 01:40:40,535
Their entire world is under siege.
1824
01:40:40,619 --> 01:40:41,703
Uh-oh.
1825
01:40:42,454 --> 01:40:44,623
That's right. Valkyrie.
1826
01:40:45,373 --> 01:40:46,833
In full form!
1827
01:40:52,214 --> 01:40:54,883
See those little griffin things
on the side there?
1828
01:40:55,383 --> 01:40:59,095
They remind me of those things
in Ghostbusters.
1829
01:41:02,098 --> 01:41:03,683
This shot here.
1830
01:41:04,851 --> 01:41:08,188
All of this.
Look how great this set looks!
1831
01:41:08,396 --> 01:41:10,148
Those two things remind me of...
1832
01:41:10,899 --> 01:41:12,734
I like to call them giraffe wolves.
1833
01:41:13,193 --> 01:41:17,948
Those things and those other tall,
sort of skinny-necked things
1834
01:41:18,073 --> 01:41:20,784
on the sides,
see around that big circle.
1835
01:41:22,327 --> 01:41:24,746
A lot of the set extension and stuff...
1836
01:41:24,996 --> 01:41:27,832
A lot of the reason so much of,
1837
01:41:28,875 --> 01:41:32,128
so many of these shots
and so many of these worlds look so good
1838
01:41:34,256 --> 01:41:36,675
is just the integration
of these human elements.
1839
01:41:36,841 --> 01:41:39,010
These things that we shot
in Australia mixed with
1840
01:41:39,177 --> 01:41:44,099
the really tireless hard work
1841
01:41:44,266 --> 01:41:49,813
of Jake Morrison
and the VFX department that he ran.
1842
01:41:49,980 --> 01:41:51,898
And then, one day...
1843
01:41:52,232 --> 01:41:54,567
Him and Cyndi Ochs.
1844
01:41:55,610 --> 01:41:57,904
It was really such a huge job,
1845
01:41:58,071 --> 01:41:59,864
there are so many VFX shots
in this film.
1846
01:42:00,782 --> 01:42:02,284
Ran into the thousands.
1847
01:42:04,911 --> 01:42:06,496
It really blew me away,
1848
01:42:06,663 --> 01:42:10,083
just how much work goes into
all of these shots
1849
01:42:10,166 --> 01:42:14,963
and the integration,
the texturing, the lighting.
1850
01:42:15,130 --> 01:42:18,300
So much lighting happens in post
1851
01:42:18,842 --> 01:42:21,094
by these VFX artists.
1852

anticipate Skurge and a zombie army

from getting back to the city.

what needs to happen.

Say Thor's the God of Thunder.
1931
01:47:43,791 --> 01:47:46,336
But, technically,
thunder isn't really lightning, is it?
1932
01:47:46,502 --> 01:47:48,546
Thunder's the sound of lightning.
1933
01:47:49,756 --> 01:47:50,840
So,
1934
01:47:53,426 --> 01:47:57,680
either Thor should change his name
to God of Lightning,
1935
01:47:58,598 --> 01:48:03,061
or should we change it
so that he just has the power of

and ask him what he thinks.

talking about before, that giant ship

is he's such a strong character,

We had to...
1981
01:51:13,543 --> 01:51:17,255
The best thing about having Fenris there
was that it keeps him occupied,
1982
01:51:17,421 --> 01:51:18,714
gives him something to do
1983
01:51:18,798 --> 01:51:20,508

1997
01:52:02,174 --> 01:52:05,678
One thing we really wrestled with
was figuring out
1998
01:52:08,347 --> 01:52:13,519
if we're gonna make this Ragnarok,
it has to be
1999
01:52:15,187 --> 01:52:17,189
the destruction of Asgard.
2000
01:52:19,358 --> 01:52:22,612
We knew that that's something
we were gonna run at
2001
01:52:22,778 --> 01:52:23,964
and we were gonna try and get there.
2002
01:52:23,988 --> 01:52:25,823
But really, the hard part is
2003
01:52:26,657 --> 01:52:30,578
trying to justify blowing up a planet
to beat the bad guy.
2004
01:52:32,914 --> 01:52:35,708
How we really got to that point
was showing that
2005
01:52:35,791 --> 01:52:39,337
even with all the power
that Thor has just harnessed,
2006
01:52:39,587 --> 01:52:42,006
even that wasn't enough to beat Hela.
2007
01:52:42,173 --> 01:52:44,675
And that she does get
more and more powerful
2008
01:52:44,842 --> 01:52:47,470
and she's just gonna keep going
and she will never stop.
2009
01:52:47,637 --> 01:52:49,847
And she will find a way off Asgard
2010
01:52:50,056 --> 01:52:55,227
and spread her evil
and conquer more worlds.
2011
01:52:57,104 --> 01:52:59,440
So they couldn't escape
and just leave her there.
2012
01:52:59,607 --> 01:53:01,275
They actually have to deal with her.
2013
01:53:01,484 --> 01:53:03,569
And if she takes her power from Asgard,
2014
01:53:04,695 --> 01:53:06,864
then to defeat her,
2015
01:53:07,031 --> 01:53:09,533
you have to destroy her power source,
2016
01:53:09,700 --> 01:53:11,827
which is Asgard.
2017

brings things back to life.
2024
01:53:35,184 --> 01:53:37,853
As we learnt before,
2025
01:53:38,020 --> 01:53:41,774
that even Surtur's soul and his spirit
2026
01:53:41,941 --> 01:53:43,943
entered into that skull
2027
01:53:44,110 --> 01:53:47,655
in the very first sequence of the film.
2028
01:53:50,992 --> 01:53:54,203
So those little eggs that were laid
2029
01:53:54,286 --> 01:53:56,622
so early on in the film are now,
2030
01:53:57,957 --> 01:54:01,377
have been incubating
and are now about to hatch.
2031
01:54:01,877 --> 01:54:04,463
This here, this moment here
is from the comic books.
2032
01:54:04,797 --> 01:54:06,132
Skurge's last stand
2033
01:54:06,382 --> 01:54:08,592
where he saves all the Asgardians.
2034
01:54:08,676 --> 01:54:11,554
It's a very iconic moment in the books
2035
01:54:11,679 --> 01:54:15,224
where he fights off the zombie army
2036
01:54:15,599 --> 01:54:16,892
with these Earth weapons.
2037
01:54:19,645 --> 01:54:23,524
It was nice, because for a bad guy,
to see this bad guy
2038
01:54:24,025 --> 01:54:28,070
sacrifice himself
for the greater good and for the people.
2039
01:54:29,071 --> 01:54:32,324
I think it's like
a real fan favorite moment.
2040
01:54:32,908 --> 01:54:36,662
Just good to see him redeem himself
in some way.
2041
01:54:36,746 --> 01:54:37,788
(SCREAMING)
2042
01:54:47,089 --> 01:54:49,175
In particular, this moment here
2043
01:54:49,258 --> 01:54:50,926
where he uses that as a baseball bat,
2044
01:54:51,260 --> 01:54:52,845
uses that gun
2045
01:54:53,554 --> 01:54:55,347
in that position...
2046
01:54:55,765 --> 01:54:57,433
That's directly from a comic book frame.
2047
01:55:02,021 --> 01:55:04,106
Now we're about to meet
the big man again.
2048
01:55:17,369 --> 01:55:18,496
Hela, enough!
2049
01:55:22,291 --> 01:55:23,292
You want Asgard,
2050
01:55:23,918 --> 01:55:24,919
it's yours.
2051
01:55:25,086 --> 01:55:28,255
Whatever game you're playing,
it won't work.
2052
01:55:28,714 --> 01:55:30,341
You can't defeat me.
2053
01:55:30,966 --> 01:55:31,967
No, I know.
2054
01:55:34,136 --> 01:55:35,137
But he can.
2055
01:55:35,304 --> 01:55:38,224
WAITITI: What the heck?
2056
01:55:39,558 --> 01:55:40,559
No!

2061
01:55:55,241 --> 01:55:58,452
Now this is actually from
2062
01:55:59,370 --> 01:56:01,122
the original
2063
01:56:02,331 --> 01:56:05,292
idea of Ragnarok, the tale of Ragnarok
2064
01:56:06,335 --> 01:56:08,045
from Norse mythology
2065
01:56:08,379 --> 01:56:12,758
that Surtur is here
with the destruction of Asgard.
2066
01:56:13,175 --> 01:56:15,052
He's a big part of that.
2067
01:56:15,636 --> 01:56:17,888
Incredible Hulk is no part of that.
2068
01:56:19,682 --> 01:56:22,017
But we need to let him
finish the job, otherwise...
2069
01:56:22,393 --> 01:56:25,020
Oh, do I hear someone coming back?

02:02:55,118 --> 02:02:56,495
Another one.
2196
02:02:58,163 --> 02:02:59,164
WAITITI: Yeah.
2197
02:02:59,289 --> 02:03:01,083
MATUA: I'll be careful.
WAITITI: Okay.
2198
02:03:01,959 --> 02:03:03,752
MATUA: I wanna go see it.
2199
02:03:04,878 --> 02:03:06,088
WAITITI: Look.
2200
02:03:06,880 --> 02:03:11,260
This is a tag scene,
so this a little tag-a-rooney.
2201
02:03:11,760 --> 02:03:13,929
MATUA: I wanna go see what's to eat.
2202
02:03:14,096 --> 02:03:15,347
WAITITI: Oh, you want food now?
2203
02:03:15,514 --> 02:03:17,641
MATUA: I wanna go food to eat.
2204
02:03:17,808 --> 02:03:19,518
WAITITI: Yeah, okay, let's go eat.
2205
02:03:19,601 --> 02:03:21,478
- Okay, say goodbye!
- MATUA: No.
2206
02:03:21,812 --> 02:03:23,772
WAITITI: Say bye.
MATUA: No.
2207
02:03:23,939 --> 02:03:25,065
WAITITI: Bye-bye.
2208
02:03:25,232 --> 02:03:26,900
MATUA: Bye-bye, guys.
2209
02:03:28,026 --> 02:03:29,236
WAITITI: Bye-bye, guys.
2210
02:03:29,403 --> 02:03:30,821
MATUA: No.
2211
02:03:31,863 --> 02:03:33,115
No.
2212
02:03:33,532 --> 02:03:36,577
No. I wanna go bye again.
2213
02:03:36,743 --> 02:03:38,036
WAITITI: Bye-bye.
2214
02:03:38,203 --> 02:03:39,788
MATUA: Bye-bye, guys.
2215
02:03:39,955 --> 02:03:41,957
I wanna go bye again.
2216
02:09:38,730 --> 02:09:40,440
(GROANING)
2217
02:09:42,651 --> 02:09:43,777
Oh, boy.
2218
02:09:45,820 --> 02:09:47,781
(SCRAPPERS EXCLAIMING)
2219
02:09:51,117 --> 02:09:52,243
(GROANS) Oh.
2220
02:09:52,369 --> 02:09:55,747
I just... I gotta say,
I'm proud of you all.
2221
02:09:56,790 --> 02:09:58,833
This revolution has been a huge success.
2222
02:09:58,917 --> 02:09:59,917
Yay, us!
2223
02:10:00,210 --> 02:10:01,211
Pat on the back.
2224
02:10:01,753 --> 02:10:03,380
Pat on the back. Come on.
2225
02:10:04,255 --> 02:10:05,256
No?
2226
02:10:05,465 --> 02:10:07,509
Me too.
'Cause I've been a big part of it.
2227
02:10:07,592 --> 02:10:10,345
Can't have a revolution
without somebody to overthrow.
2228
02:10:10,553 --> 02:10:12,222
So, you're welcome.
2229
02:10:12,806 --> 02:10:15,141
And, uh, it's a tie.
