Based onthe nightspot bouncers Waititi knew in New Zealand , Korg is a prizefighter made of rocks who is way more harmless than that would suggest . Here are Korg ’s 10 Funniest Quotes In The MCU .
“Hey, Doug, could you come over here? Oh, yeah, I forgot. Doug’s dead.”
When Thor arrive on Sakaar and is immediately thrust in with the ranks of the Grandmaster ’s gladiators , he get word about the Grandmaster ’s personal champion . He call for Korg if anyone has defeated the Grandmaster ’s champion and Korg tells him Doug did and calls after him . Then , he recollect that the champion killed Doug .
Still , Thor vow to defeat the Grandmaster ’s champion and get off Sakaar , but Korg says that ’s what Doug used to say , before assign Thor the nickname “ New Doug . ” What we would later discover is thatthe Grandmaster ’s champion was the Hulk , who Thor called “ a supporter from oeuvre . ”
“Just a little Rock, Paper, Scissors joke for you.”

Korg enclose himself inThor : Ragnarokwith a great piffling monologue that lead into a prank about the fact he ’s a careen - establish life form : “ I ’m made of rocks , as you may see , but do n’t let that intimidate you . You do n’t need to be afraid , unless you ’re made of scissors ! Just a piddling Rock , Paper , Scissors joke for you . ”
“Oof. Now, those foundations are gone. Sorry.”
Thor : Ragnarokends with the destruction of Asgard at the hands of Hela and Surtur . While Thor , the Hulk , Valkyrie , and the pull round Asgardians cope to vote down the forged guys andprevent the titular apocalyptical event from take place , Asgard is leave in laying waste .
Korg tries to make Thor find good about it by distinguish him , “ The damage is not too bad . As long as the foundations are still strong , we can reconstruct this situation . It will become a seaport for all people and aliens of the world . ” But just then , the ruins of Asgard explode and Korg adds , “ Oof . Now , those foundations are gone . no-good . ”
“Oh, Miek, you’re alive! He’s alive, guys!”
Korg and Miek havea standardized relationship to Rocket and Baby Groot . Like Rocket , Korg is hilarious and speak a wad , and like Baby Groot , Miek is his softly spoken friend that Korg channel around on his shoulder joint .
At the ending ofThor : Ragnarok , as the Asgardians are attempt to square up where they ’ll jet off in their ship to set up New Asgard after the destruction of the previous Asgard , Korg asks his little sidekick if he has any ideas . But he believe Miek is numb . As it turns out , he ’s just kip , and Korg is overjoy that he ’s still alive .
“Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Korg. I’m kind of like the leader in here.”
As soon as Thor shows up anywhere , he makes himself the drawing card . For example , when he conjoin the Guardians of the Galaxy , he immediately set about to take over from Peter Quill . And when he joins his fellow gladiators on Sakaar , Korg tells him he ’s “ kind of like the loss leader , ” and Thor instantly took over .
He successfully carried out the revolution that Korg had been planning for a while and he took on the Grandmaster ’s champion , the Hulk , andtalked him back down into Bruce Banner .

“It sounds like you had a pretty special and intimate relationship with this hammer.”

As Thor explain this to Korg , Korg say , “ It sound like you had a middling special and versed relationship with this hammer and that losing it was almost like to lose a get laid one . ”
Thor call this explanation ofhis human relationship with Mjolnir“a nice elbow room of putting it . ” Thankfully , he ’d be able to retrieve Mjolnir inEndgamewhen he get going back in time to Asgard in 2013 , circaThe Dark World .
“P*** off, ghost!”
On a few occasions in the MCU , we ’ve been tricked into thinking that Loki was dead , or that Loki had given up villainy in favour of valiancy , andon all of those occasions , he turned out to be tricking us . After all , he is “ the hoaxer god . ” But the more times this has happened , the more the characters have needed to be refreshingly plainspoken with him .
Korg is perhaps the bluntest when he simply tells Loki , “ P * * * off , trace ! ” Loki is n’t a spectre , but with all of his spectral projections and shapeshifting , you ’d be forgiven for thinking he was one .
“Guys, can you clean up the weapons once you finish your fight?”
For an intergalactic prizefighter who pass his days bludgeon other aliens to ensure his own survival , Korg is a pretty high and harmless guy . This is show inThor : Ragnarokwhen he ’s gross out by the mess left on the weapons by the other fighters . He beak up one of the weapons and says , “ Oh , yuck ! There ’s still someone ’s hair and pedigree all over this . Guys , can you clean up the artillery once you wind up your fight ? yucky slobs . ”
This joke is comparable to the werewolf scene inWaititi ’s lamia mockumentaryWhat We Do in the Shadows , where Rhys Darby ’s character tells his fellow loup-garou not to wear thin wearing apparel they do n’t want to get ruined when there ’s a full lunar month .
“I tried to start a revolution, but didn’t print enough pamphlets, so hardly anyone turned up.”
When Thor first contact Korg , he explains to the God of Thunder how he came to be recruited as a gladiator on Sakaar : “ Well , I seek to start a gyration , but did n’t print enough booklet , so hardly anyone turn up . Except for my mum and her swain , who I detest . As punishment , I was forced to be in here and become a gladiator . Bit of a promotional disaster , that one , but I ’m actually organizing another rotation . I do n’t know if you ’d be interested in something like that . Do you estimate you ’d be concerned ? ”
Poor Korg . He tried his best to overturn the Grandmaster . With Thor ’s assist , he would finally follow . What makes this integral story even funnier is that Korg , who is made of rock , was get the better of by paper , calling back to his rock music , paper , scissors line .
