    Chris Hemsworth is what you get when you hit the right DNA with social worker parents / nurturing... Just a bloody nice guy.
  • @MiTmite9
    What must it be like to be so smart, personable, affable and gorgeous to look at? I truly hope Chris is as happy in life as he appears to be. Just one helluva good bloke.
  • @JacWarner
    Well said Chris. We do have Mad Max. It is such an icon of Australian cinema. Everyone has stories about max. Small country. Anyone in the arts knows everyone.
  • @bfkc111
    His performance is fanastic in that role, he immediately seems like a completely different person from himself or his usual roles.
  • @coyley72
    Watched Furiosa yesterday. Miller has once again knocked it outta the park. A superb film. Once the film finishes you just want to watch Fury Road straight away.
  • @nawshaba152
    He will always be Thor to me, no matter what other role he plays however successfully. ❤
  • @lawrencef4356

  • @tony2shanks
    I just saw the film and by gosh, what a performance. The dialogue is so profound too, and coupled with his depravity added more weight too
  • @Newylife
    Absolutely LOVED the little improv bit at the beginning!! 😂😂😂
  • George Miller was the director, co-writer & co-producer of the wonderful, marvellous film 3000 Years of Longing. The kind of movie that just doesn't get made these days.
  • @pdoylemi
    Thor was by far my favorite comic as a kid, and when Marvel came out with the first movie, I was almost afraid to see it because I was sure they would cast the wrong person as Thor and ruin it. Then I watched it and by all the gods, Chris WAS Thor - AWESOME.

    “Mine!” “Mine!” “Mine!” “Mine!”
  • @tonydejesus2134
    Wow, I’ve never seen a promo clip that showed the climax of the movie.
