In the new MCU film, Thor embarks on a quest to stop the evil Gorr from mur­der­ing the gods of the uni­verse.

Warn­ing — the rest of this arti­cle con­tains spoil­ers for Thor: Love and Thun­der.

Spoil­er. Some fans absolute­ly hate learn­ing details about the plot of their antic­i­pat­ed films in advance, claim­ing that it ruins the expe­ri­ence. Oth­ers are much more for­giv­ing, and some groups even active­ly seek out spoil­ers to include all the infor­ma­tion they can find before watch­ing a movie.

Well what love and thun­derWell, there weren’t real­ly many leaks ahead of the release of the fourth Thor solo film. But the British Board of Film Clas­si­fi­ca­tion web­site might have shak­en things up a bit.

British film official website spoils thor 4

The offi­cial page on the British Board of Film Clas­si­fi­ca­tion web­site for Thor: Love and Thun­der lists some ele­ments from the film that could cer­tain­ly be con­sid­ered spoil­ers. Those details are list­ed under the “Rat­ings info” tab, which is actu­al­ly labeled with a spoil­er alert

“May con­tain spoil­ers”.

On the one hand, the cir­cum­stances sur­round­ing the many injuries added to char­ac­ters are listed.

There are scenes of fan­tas­tic blood­shed, includ­ing jets of gold­en blood in a sword fight between gods. Fan­tas­tic crea­tures are slop­pi­ly dis­mem­bered. A vil­lain rips off a mon­ster’s head and throws it at chil­dren. A hero is shown to be miss­ing an eye.

In all like­li­hood, the hero in ques­tion is Thor him­self. He lost his right eye in a fight with Hela in 2017 Thor: Rag­narok and received a bion­ic replace­ment in Avengers: Infin­i­ty Warby Rock­et, although it’s prob­a­bly best not to ask where he got it from…

And of course, the BBFC would be remiss if they did­n’t men­tion the much-dis­cussed scene where Zeus mag­i­cal­ly snaps his fin­gers to remove Thor’s clothes, expos­ing his butt, or as the site puts it: “weird rear nudity.”

There are weird ver­bal ref­er­ences to orgies. There are slight allu­sions to what a hero’s penis looks like. There are oth­er ref­er­ences to “mak­ing babies” and “dress­ing it”. There is weird rear nudity.

Let’s con­tin­ue with the movie “occa­sion­al fear of jump­ing” and oth­er moments that might be unset­tling, includ­ing a vil­lain who wants to decap­i­tate young chil­dren. Could this be Chris­t­ian Bales Gorr? It does­n’t real­ly seem to be his MO, so maybe not.:

In sequences of mod­er­ate hor­ror, chil­dren are snatched from their beds by mon­sters at night and held cap­tive by a sin­is­ter vil­lain who threat­ens to cut off their heads. There are occa­sion­al jump scares. This hor­ror is inter­spersed with com­e­dy and ends on a sooth­ing note.

The BBFC’s web­site also lists the film’s notable moments of violence:

There are extend­ed fan­tas­tic fight sequences. A man stabs a god in the neck. War­riors fight with swords, axes and melee. A group of gods is said to have been lynched.

And final­ly we come to “bad lan­guage” uttered in the film, most of which are almost guar­an­teed to have come from the mouths of the Guardians of the Galaxy. A char­ac­ter suf­fer­ing from can­cer is also men­tioned, appar­ent­ly refer­ring to Jane:

There are mild swear words like “pi**”, “cr*p”, “a**h*le”, “sh*t”, “h*ll”, “d*mn”, “**d” and “idiot”. A char­ac­ter’s ter­mi­nal can­cer is a theme of the film; There are dis­turb­ing scenes asso­ci­at­ed with it.

Seems like Thor 4 is having a wild time

Remem­ber that Thor: Love and Thun­der, like all cur­rent offer­ings from Mar­vel Stu­dios, is strict­ly rat­ed PG-13. Fans won’t find F‑bombs or full frontal nudi­ty in this MCU project.

That should­n’t stop the stu­dio from play­ing com­i­cal­ly with estab­lished tropes sur­round­ing such things, though. At least the movie is direct­ed by none oth­er than Tai­ka Wait­i­ti. The New Zealan­der is known for his goofy, irrev­er­ent sense of humor.

And as for the vio­lence, it’s safe to say that all of the dis­mem­ber­ments and phys­i­cal harm are inflict­ed on alien char­ac­ters. When­ev­er Mar­vel con­tains heavy graph­ic vio­lence, it is often either hint­ed at or only shown off-screen. And on rare occa­sions when it does­n’t, the dam­age done is usu­al­ly bloodless.

Fans will be able to see for them­selves when Mar­vel Stu­dios Thor: Love and Thun­der hits the­aters on July 8th.
