bucky who can’t quite seem to get over the fact he can pick up mjolnir even though it’s been a good three months since the first time he accidentally plucked it from the ground in avenger’s tower. the hammer itself always seems to be in the most random of places and bucky will walk over to it whenever the opportunity comes along and look around to make sure no one is watching before picking it up again as it expecting one day that he won’t be able to lift it again. except every time it comes off the ground without hesitation and he grins like an absolute idiot because it means more to him than it probably should just that mjolnir deems him worthy at all so that must mean there’s something good about him, right?

and of course tony eventually asks why thor leaves his hammer just sitting around the place and thor simply smiles and says, “because it helps where i cannot.”

and nobody knows exactly what he means by that

so i was watching infinity war again and i noticed that out of thor, tony, and steve’s entrances (marvel’s “big three”), tony’s is the only one where the avengers theme doesn’t play. steve and thor’s pieces are the avengers theme, but in tony’s there’s only two or three measures, just the very beginning of it, after which it morphs into something different and unique (it doesn’t play in his fight with thanos either). and i realized that while it was never addressed on screen, the score tells us how tony feels about the team post-civil war: he feels alone.

think about it: in civil war, natasha, steve, and clint all went against him. no one knew where thor and bruce were. civil war split the team, and left tony feeling that he was on his own, separated from everyone else.

there isn’t really a point to this, i just thought it was a really cool detail alan silvestri put into the score.

if anyone wants to listen to the music itself without the movie, these are the tracks i’m referring to:

steve: help arrives 0:06-0:46

thor: forge 3:25-4:19

tony: he won’t come out 2:10-2:25

another interesting detail is that tony’s entrance theme is actually more thematically similar to peter’s (he won’t come out 0:36-0:41) than any of the other avengers’.

there’s also never a moment where the avengers theme plays during a group shot, something both previous avengers movies had, signifying even more that the team has split apart.

a movie’s score, done right, is just as an important storytelling tool as the writing, directing, and acting.

Thor’s intelligence is often overlooked.

Okay but for real though.

Like, I could come up with a bunch of examples of Thor being hella smart, but let’s go with the most obvious one in this movie.

Thor specifically told the Guardians NOT to go to Knowhere. He told them they wouldn’t be able to stop Thanos from getting the Reality Stone anyway, and knew 100% that he needed to be more powerful to face him.

Not only was he right in the sense that, with Stormbreaker, he came super close to defeating Thanos with all 6 Stones, but also, if the Guardians had all gone with him to Nidavellir instead, Thanos wouldn’t have captured Gamora, he wouldn’t have found the Soul Stone, and he would’ve had to face the Avengers AND the Guardians on earth with one less Stone.

Moral of the story: Thor is INCREDIBLY smart and 100% knows what he’s doing, and people need to start paying attention to him more.

oh god yes. the guardians going to knowhere was the dumbest plan, they should all have gone to nidavellir with thor.
