TDW Minutes 106-113: St. Crispin’s Dark World Day
Episode 23
Monday, 15 December, 2025
This is it. The final minutes of Thor: The Dark World. The last stretch of asphalt on a road trip everyone agrees went on too long. It ends exactly the way you’d expect: with Benicio del Toro seducing an Infinity Stone while wearing approximately nine feet of wig-robe and London being attacked by a highly motivated ice dog.Pete and Matthew dig into the Collector’s chaotic comic origins—including his extremely questionable introduction involving Janet van Dyne in a bikini—and try to determine whether “one down, five to go” is a grand cosmic plan or just a man lying with confidence. They also revisit that mysterious gold cocoon that launched a thousand fan theories before James Gunn had to break the news that no, it was not Adam Warlock—just a fancy prop someone thought looked cool.Then it’s off to London, where Thor and Jane share a kiss, and absolutely no one seems concerned that a frost beast is still galloping through the streets like a lost Labrador made of permafrost. Pete even reveals the MCU eventually remembered this loose end—because of course the frost beast ends up in Secret Invasion. As all great creatures do.And finally, they close the book on a movie that has tested their patience, their optimism, and arguably their grasp on narrative coherence. With Captain America: The Winter Soldier on the horizon, they celebrate the end of this cinematic endurance trial and look forward to a bright new day.If you want to hear these conversations unfold in real-time, join the Marvel Movie Minute community at trustory.fm/join, where members get early access, invitations to live stream recordings, and other bonus content.Film SundriesWatch this film: Apple • Amazon • LetterboxdScriptTrailer #1Trailer #2Poster artworkOriginal MaterialSeason 8 Music by Martin PuehringerJoin the conversation with movie lovers from around the world on The Next Reel’s Discord channel!---Learn more about supporting this podcast by becoming a member.
