Between Thor's Wakanda entrance and Superman's end battle entrance in Justice League, which one was better executed and why? What can they do to improve the scenes? How does it serve the story and the character for better or worse? This is not a battle so no trolling. As an art and design student, I am actually interested in the art of film making and would like a serious discussion as I am interested in other people's opinions. So no spouting "statue", "slowdinson" or anything else to degrade another character.

Superman's entrance was sadly unimpressive.

Thor saved everyone's assess in Wakanda and had a cool Avengers background track to make it seem epic.

When Thor arrived my theatre erupted.

This isn't close at all. Thor's had way more emotion to it and was far more epic. Superman's was decent. Thor's was excellent.

That Wakanda entrance was, far and away, my favorite scene in infinity war, and honestly my second favorite MCU moment behind Hulk's Leviathan punch in Avengers.

Superman didn't feel like it was that epic until he got to fighting.

Thor? Before we even see him on screen he's saved everyone we care about and when he does enter with a second thought he calls down the thunder and wipes out an army pretty much.

Thor, and it's not close. When Superman showed up, there was little to no response. But when Thor showed up with the booming soundtrack, the epic wide shots and the stunned reactions, people were in awe.

Thor's arrival in Wakanda is the greatest movie scene I have ever watched.

@ready_4_madness: Thor's was nearly perfect, only thing that I didn't like was how quick they cut away from him. I think that the difference between his and Supes, dispite them both being out of the blue is because there was build up and payoff for Thor's. He also came at a time when we started to think that Wakanda and the Avengers might actually lose adding to the power of his scene. Superman had his in a sort of random place, maybe would have benefited from the timing of his entrance. Plus all of what you said too, the music, the shot and cinematography was all much better for Thor. If Supes had similar circumstances in the narrative of his entrance besides just the music and shot it would've been better, but it would be hard since his only other scenes didn't build up too much for his entrance.
