Marvel Studios’ THOR: RAGNAROK is Coming Home

Thor Ragnarok DVD

One of the most fun times I’ve ever had watching a movie was seeing Thor: Ragnarok at the red carpet premiere. It was an incredible trip made great because Thor: Ragnarok was such a fun movie to see. It was funny, filled with action and the best Thor movie so far. I loved director, Taika Waititi’s take on the character. I also like how Taika was the character, Korg in the film. Looking over the extras on the Blu-ray makes me very excited to see more of this character through Taika’s comedy genius eyes.

Here is the Blu-ray trailer.

Korg is arguably my favorite new character from Thor: Ragnarok. He is so unexpectedly funny. Korg is a rock creature who is also forced into fighting in the Grandmaster’s Colosseum. According to Taika Waititi, the director of the movie who also provides the voice and motion capture for Korg, Korg is the mum of the prison. He takes care of everyone there.

when I was at the Thor: Ragnarok press junket and got to interview Taika I asked him why he would want to put even more pressure upon himself by playing this character when he was already directing this dreadnought of a movie. He told me, “Ah, because I’m a self-saboteur. any chance I get to put my career at risk, I’ll just do it.” He also told us that all of Korg’s lines were adlibbed. This really speaks more to who Taika is as a creative person. He is hilarious and therefore his character of Korg is also one of the more hilarious characters in the film.

The Korg Pop figure is not something that you see on the packaging at all. The only place I’ve seen it is on Amazon.com but i have not seen him shown as an exclusive to Amazon.com anywhere. I’m hoping that if there is a Korg figure then there will also be a Skurge one. You can actually get Korga and the rest of the Thor: Ragnarok Pops through my Amazon.com affiliate links below.
