Thor 060: Is Thor Screaming at Odin or Coulson?

<h2>Minute Sixty: From Odin’s-Eye View to Odin’s Triquetra</h2> <p>Joining us to discuss Thor’s scream of agony and confusion as well as Coulson’s possibly sympathy for him are Andrew Darowski from Disney Animation Minute Essentials and Joe Darowski from The Protagonist Podcast.</p> <h3>In the sixtieth minute of <a href="https://trustory.fm/director/kenneth-branagh/">Kenneth Branagh</a>’s 2011 film <em>Thor</em>...</h3> <ul><li>Thor screams at the heavens. It’s sad. It’s powerful. It’s heartbreaking. It’s all of his emotional weight coming out in intensity.</li> <li>Thor clearly knows he’s looking up at Heimdall and maybe Odin. But it’s kinda funny that Coulson is right there too. We like to think maybe he’s screaming at Coulson. Who’s literally staring at him from above.</li> <li>Thor’s scream feels like a child melting down. He still has no understanding as to what’s going on. Or at least it may be slowly starting.</li> <li>We break down parental responsive quadrants and discuss where Odin perhaps falls. And Frigga too. She was awfully permissive of Thor.</li> <li>Was there a switch in Odin’s parenting style after everything he did with Hela? Did that leave Frigga to carry the load?</li></ul> <h3>We cut to Jane and see her reaction.</h3> <ul><li>It’s shot like she’s seeing this which makes no sense but it <em>does</em> make sense that she’s reacting to Thor’s scream.</li> <li>Coulson also seems to be reacting to Thor’s scream. Or maybe he just wishes something happened.</li> <li>Hawkeye doesn’t look at all. At least we don’t get a shot of him.</li> <li>But to that point, we do determine that all the clips of Renner were shot after the fact to fit in to this scene after the fact.</li> <li>We hope the guy who Renner replaced doesn’t feel too bad about being replaced.</li></ul> <h3>Thor falls to his knees in defeat.</h3> <ul><li>Patrick Doyle’s music works so well here and doesn’t make the scene feel too much.</li> <li>The slo-mo scream feels a bit Peter Jackson but when he’s on his knees, the slo-mo of the water
