Rival Marvel Guardians of the Galaxy director Chris Gunn even said it was wittier and more colourful that his own highly-acclaimed comicbook adaptations.

The unveiling of a spectacular new character, then, is accompanied by a unexpectedly funny new detail.

Korg the Kronan is certainly a fearsome and impressive sight. The huge stone creature even towers over the strapping main man Thor, himself.

New Zealand native Waititi provided the voice and motion capture moves for the enormous warrior.

Gunn affectionatly made fun of the prformance in his epic review: “Taika as Korg steals every scene he’s in. In casting that role, I think Taika was very lucky that Kronans have the same exact accent as New Zealanders.”

The director’s light-hearted and relaxed way of filming is on full display in the clip.

In teh full interview with Jimmy Kimmel, Chris Hemworth talked about the way the film was made, using this scene as an example.

He said: “There was originally one line and then we started improv’ing most of that scene. That was the tone of most of the movie. (They) encouraged improvisation.”
