I feel like people shit on the first Thor movie way more than it actually deserves. I felt like it did exactly what it needed to, and was basically presented in a very Shakespearean sort of way (not surprising, considering who directed it).

In the same way, it seems like a lot of people online crap on the first Captain America movie, but I thought it was exactly what it needed to be, and struck exactly the right tone for the character (about the only thing I might have changed would be how rushed the movie felt, but that was pretty much inevitable with them rushing to get him frozen and in the future for the Avengers movie).

If anything, I think those movies have a positive that some of the current movies lack - namely, they have their own feel and sense of identity. Now, everything's blurred together so much, every film sort of feels like every other film, and you're basically left with either "generic Marvel movie" flavor or "quirky Guardians of the Galaxy-esque movie" flavor.

I enjoyed Ragnarok, but it didn't really feel like THOR to me.
