One Marvelous Scene - Thor Victorious (SPOILER FREE)

This video is part of the #OneMarvelousScene project started by Nando v Movies. A group of content creators got together to share one scene from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and talk about what made it spectacular. Graciously enough, they've opened up the playlist to anyone who has another scene to share and talk about. This is my contribution to this project. In this video, I'm talking about the thematic trend of Christus Victor, which started in the climactic scene in the first Thor movie. This was a theme I explored in an earlier academic lecture as well, the link to which can be found below.
