while hemsworth's portrayal of the character has received praise, thor, as a character, was initially less well-received than other avengers characters, and it has been stated that "before "ragnarok", thor was described by some as an ill-defined if likable meathead of a character, used primarily for punching and occasionally fish-out-of-water jokes made at his expense", and that films featuring the character were "the studio's least fun franchise". in particular, "the dark world" was criticized for adding "absolutely zero development or growth for its main character", resulting in "little enthusiasm for thor from either audiences or marvel". "thor: ragnarok", however, was much better received, to the extent that it has widely been described as saving the "thor" franchise. in his review of "", joe morgenstern of "the wall street journal" acknowledged "chris hemsworth’s thor, endearing despite some ragged material and the actor’s seemingly limited dramatic range" while praising hemsworth in the mcu infinity saga finale "as the graceful, exuberant comic actor he was destined to be, while thor morphs, alarmingly and charmingly—yet still heroically—into a beer-bellied apparition who could pass for jeff lebowski."

despite not being officially canonical, both "team thor" shorts serve as major influences in thor's characterization in future mcu ventures. primarily, the shorts created a new personality for thor, who is portrayed in all subsequent films as being irreverent and more comical, as opposed to his previous appearances, where he was more serious and defined by his arrogance. in addition to this, thor continues to make direct parallels to both "team thor" shorts in dialogue. in "thor ragnarok", his derisive description of darryl's job is appropriated into a dismissal of banner to comfort hulk. "avengers: endgame" also features two nods to this short, first when hulk repeats thor's description of asgard as "golden castles", and then again when thor is discussing the events of "thor the dark world" to the avengers, and ends his speech with a sentiment about nihilism that harks back to this short's ending.
