Avengers Endgame featured many drastic changes in the MCU. One major change that surprised many fans was the inclusion of Fat Thor. Thor's fall into depression caused him to become overweight and lazy. He would constantly play video games all day while drinking beer, and when Hulk and Rocket Racoon asked Thor to come with them, he initially refused and lost his cool when they brought up the topic of Thanos.
For many fans, this was shocking character development, as they never expected Thor to fall from grace. However, some fans noticed that Fat Thor was hinted in Avengers Endgame even before Thor killed present Thanos during the flashback scene. Each hero coped with 'the snap' in different ways. A report on ScreenRant said that a major detail was shared at the very beginning of Avengers Endgame that hinted at 'Fat' Thor.

Finally, Hulk, aka Bruce Banner, manages to merge his two personas and become the 'Smart' Hulk. Thor was hit the hardest by his defeat and ended up falling into depression. He became obese and would always play video games all day long. However, Avengers Endgame actually dropped a hint that Thor had lost all hope even before the movie's title card.
