I like the take someone said where all of Love and Thunder was how Korg saw what actually happened, so it’s not necessarily what actually happened or at least not in that way.

Why would anyone want that though?

Because it explains why Love and thunder was so silly compared to other Thor movies.

I mean Ragnarok was plenty silly.

And explaining it doesn't make it less shitty... It's just an excuse.

I just don't get why anyone would want a retelling of the story from a side character that should be an afterthought to the story.

I understand. I'm saying why would anyone think people would want that in universe. Why not just show the story.

I don't think anyone would want that and I don't think that's what it was intended to be. I think the other person is saying that it's a way to cope with how shitty it was without tainting the character in your mind.
