Huh, I figured there wouldn't be any more Thors and he would just be a supporting char in GotG3. Interesting development

Kind of surprised, but then in hindsight I guess not really. The last few movies really reinvigorated his appeal.

Given that Hemsworth announced he was taking a year or two off from acting, I imagine that it was in preparation for a more extended push into the MCU afterwards, possibly as the only original anchor left from the beginning MCU. Makes sense to try and use him as the veteran of the larger franchise and keep him on for another few phases.

I assume this will release after GotG 3 so there will be a plot reason for him leaving the Asgardians of the Galaxy.

Time for the God Butcher.

Probably not, but I can dream.

I do hope they bring in Beta Ray Bill and that's at least realistic.

Remember when the first Thor came out and it was like the worst out of the early Marvel movies?

And then Thor 2 was the worst sequel?

Funny in hindsight.

It could be they weren't sure if they could get Hemsworth back for another Thor but knew he'd come back for Guardians 3, then he agreed to both.

"worst humor in marvel" is a bit much but ragnarok's humor was pretty bad tbqh. only a few of the jokes were really funny.

Ragnarok kicked ass after two bad Thor movies

Taika waititi saved the franchise

This is the global ranking from the sorta quiz several thousand people took up until the release of endgame

You can't deny people like it and that it's the easy and safe and smart choice to bring him back

i'm not denying anything.

not even saying i'm necessarily not looking forward to thor 4 as i think the script was one of the weak parts of ragnarok. as long as they get better writers for thor 4, it's all good.

everyone has their own taste and if you didn't like ragnarok or didn't think it's funny, that's totally valid

if you go around saying "it's humour was pretty bad" or "the next one needs better writers" that's just gonna be objectively wrong

anyways it's curious what will happen with Thor. It's been said that it's up to Gunn if he actually wants to use Thor or not in GotG 3 so it might not even happen, and it's also true that Thor 4 could be about Valkyrie.

Sounds like Akira is being put on indefinite hold because WB is refusing to make it until Waititi is available. Smart move which is wierd.

I'm sure this and Guardians 3 will be great, but hopefully Valkyrie gets her own movie as well down the road.

Ragnarok is one of the better Marvel films, yes. Not all of the jokes hit but enough did for the film to be worthwhile.

Today I was incidentally thinking about how Sam Neill has a cameo in Ragnarok due to his close working relationship with the director.

It and Winter Soldier are both really really good

I marginally prefer WS but it's...well, marginal

That's not a bad ranking but I think Iron Man 1 is a little underrated.

I mean Hulk has always been the worst

I really like the original Thor but I'm also a big fan for "fish out of water" type humor so I thought a lot of the humor was pretty great

I must've just watched civil war in the wrong state of mind. I found all the action scenes extra boring/pointless

But I also laughed at the widow/Hawkeye scene in endgame and didn't like John wick 3 so what do I know

see, that's the thing - while i haven't seen hunt for the wilderpeople, i loved what we do in the shadows (the movie) and flight of the conchords so i was expecting to love ragnarok too. ragnarok did have the same style of humor but most of the jokes just weren't nearly as good. maybe i'm too harsh on it because my expectations were so high (though the humor being disappointing isn't my only problem with ragnarok, in my defense).
