Yes, this song shows up in the opening scene, but it’s the return of the Led Zeppelin banger in the finale that really earns this needle drop a place on this list. Thor getting his mojo back, Loki doing Loki things, Valkyrie showing up and kicking ass with fireworks in the background, and Hulk hulking out vs Fenrir? Pure cinema. It’s a renaissance painting, but with Marvel characters and sick-ass fight choreography and half-decent CGI (sort of, sometimes). The song works hard, but Taika Waititi works harder.
