no cause that moment when atreus comes back to kratos after asgard and he hugs him and at first kratos looks so shocked that atreus actually came back before he hugs him back and his eyes. look at his EYES. at his FACE. that's the look of a man ready to kill anyone who ever gets too near his child again. that's the face of a man ready to find whoever made his son so distraught as to hug him so tightly and kill them over and over and over again (which he does in the end). that's the face of a man ready to DIE before letting anyone even look at his boy wrong again. it just means a lot to me
I love the play scene on New Asgard so much. Matt Damon and Luke Hemsworth returning is so funny to me on so many levels.
In-universe, it implies that these two random theatre actors were two of the very few survivors of Ragnarok, that they moved to Earth and then KEPT DOING THE SAME PLAY.
And out-of universe, it implies that Taika Waititi, having previously called them for a "quick, one-and-done silly cameo" called them back up and said "hey, want to do that again?' and they both said yes.
