taika using led zeppelins “immigrant song” as a focal point in thor where the asgardians reflect the plot of the song as over the course of the film they develop from being the violent, murdering, gallavanting norse colonizers of old to literally becoming immigrants seeking out new lands to take refuge in based on newfound principles of peace love prosperity and empathy with thor at their helm acknowledging that his family is guilty of a horrific imperialistic dynasty and that hes responsible for making amends, albeit this time these concepts are all the more meaningful for involving a visibly multicultural cast with taika’s superb direction as a politically outspoken indigenous activist and artist
