Thor is the only original Avenger whose arc is a demolition: he loses the hammer, the eye, the brother, the father, the planet, and finally the idea that any of it made him worth anything. The run rewards watching straight through because each film reacts to the damage of the last, and two short scenes outside his own films fill in the gaps.

Thor breaks the truce with Jotunheim, is stripped of Mjolnir and exiled to New Mexico, and only regains the hammer by choosing to die for a town full of strangers. He destroys the Bifrost to stop Loki's genocide, stranding himself from Jane.
Thor arrives to drag Loki home, fights Iron Man and Captain America over him instead, and ends up anchoring the Manhattan defence with lightning through the Chitauri portal. He takes Loki and the Tesseract back to Asgard at the end.
Thor breaks Loki out of prison to smuggle the Aether-infected Jane off Asgard after Malekith's raid kills Frigga, and finishes the Dark Elf on Earth via Selvig's portals. He turns down the throne and does not notice Loki is wearing Odin's face.
Wanda's vision of Asgard burning sends Thor to the Water of Sight, where he works out that four Infinity Stones have surfaced. He uses the lightning to bring Vision to life and defends the rising Sokovian landmass.
The mid-credits scene puts Thor in the New York Sanctum with a beer that refills itself, explaining that he and Loki are on Earth to find Odin. Strange agrees to help on the condition that they both leave afterwards, which is the setup for Ragnarok's opening.
Thor loses Mjolnir to Hela, ends up a gladiator on Sakaar fighting Hulk, and learns to make lightning without the hammer. He chooses to trigger Ragnarok and destroy Asgard to kill Hela, losing an eye and a planet and leading the survivors into space.
Thanos wipes out half the Asgardian refugees and kills Loki and Heimdall in front of Thor, who then forges Stormbreaker in a dying star with the Guardians. He buries the axe in Thanos's chest and aims too high.
Five years of grief and beer leave Thor unfit and hiding in New Asgard, until the Asgard leg of the time heist puts him in front of Frigga on the day she dies. He hands New Asgard to Valkyrie and leaves with the Guardians.
Thor leaves the Guardians to chase Gorr the God Butcher, finds Jane wielding a reassembled Mjolnir while dying of cancer, and loses her a second time. He ends the film raising Gorr's daughter Love.
Raised without Loki, this Thor is an unchecked party prince who turns Las Vegas into a planet-wide rager until SHIELD calls in Captain Marvel and then Frigga. Alternate-timeline variant, not the Thor of the films.
Party Thor is drafted into the Watcher's Guardians of the Multiverse and fights Infinity-Stone Ultron alongside Captain Carter and Strange Supreme. Brief, and the same variant as the episode above.
