The Official "Thor: Love & Thunder" Thread

I just feel like comedy Thor and Gorr don’t mesh well.

Killing Gods either needs to be Clash of Titans over the top or something more emotiona considering it touches on ideas of faith, belief and man’s relationship to higher deities.

Neither does Comedy and Hitler lol

But I loved Jojo Rabbit. The humor reminds me of how a lot of comedians are stereotyped to be masking their tragedy with a sense of humor as a coping mechanism.

I'm sure to a lot of people who might have peeped that movie, the tones might have clashed and the whole premise might have been a little far out, but it was dope and failry unique. I hope the suposed tone clash plays in this out similarly for me.

In the same way Chloe Zhao brought the things that got her praise to The Eternals (which I liked a lot), it seems like Rami and Taika got the same leeway to make "their" movie, for better or worse. And all 3 of them are going to get some flack from deviating from the "made by commitee" vibe that everybody bytched about up til now.

you really that surprised after the success of Ragnarok & JoJo Rabbit? everyone loved this guy a week ago it feels like, now people are turning on him for a movie that hasnt even been released yet

Yeah. That shift on him has been crazy.

He let the "he saved the Thor franchise" get to his head

I would say I got GoTG vibes with the last Thor movie and I'm getting that with this one too. Taika feels very James Gunn-lite in my personal opinion

Idk if it’s so much the shift. These things are inevitable because the glaring problems the first time around don’t get noticed till the second time around. It happens all the time. The issues surrounding Thor ragnarok gets doubled down in the sequel because they are going back to the same well but the well was dirty the first time around. Cheap jokes and cheap gimmicks. It’s the same thing that happened with guardians 2 and Deadpool 2. The same gimmicks don’t hit the same because they are familiar, but now that you are seeing it a second time it doesn’t hold up because it worked only because it was surprising and different not great and different.

Double Toasted Review
Korey didn't really like it, compared it to Ant-Man in regards to being too silly, gave it a low matinee
Martin loved it, said its his favorite movie of the year, gave it a high full price
Both say there's something wrong with Phase 4

Whose review should I use to prop up my agenda

Same thing with the Hangover franchise

This is your prayer every Marvel release.
Wow, RT scores are everything now?
And you can't use the score as some sort of indicator now and at the same time invalidate previous scores. They either are all accurate or none of them are.

I can use them any damn time they help me validate my desires

His character was always weak as shyt in the comics and he got bodied by Thanos quick. I'm glad they used a no named actor.

 

[The Minister Of Culture]

Yeah. That shift on him has been crazy.

the same shyt is gonna happen/ is happening with Dave Filoni & Jon Favreau in Star Wars. Dudes crowned them the saviours of the franchise too quick

Yeah, it's a credit to the studio a phenomenal streak. But still there are movies that I think are absolute clunkers (The Last Jedi) that got over 90% positive reviews. Doesn't mean I'm right and they are wrong the score is the consensus of reviewers, I just didn't agree with the vast majority on that movie. So the MCU having clunkers in your opinion doesn't mean they deserved a lower RT score.
And NWH broke box office records and Marvel Studios was mainly responsible on the creative side despite only seeing 25% of the box office. And Dr. Strange 2 would be the highest grossing movie this year if not for the Maverick phenomenon which is a one off and will be hard to duplicate. The luster is still there. lol

Anything over $450M is phenomenal. I don’t get why niccas down the numbers between that and a billion.

It just makes certain cases or agendas look silly and the niccas gotta be forced to troll other shyt that hits like $600M-$800M just to mock them

Yes I get Marvel has made it look easy, but that should give anyone reason or ammo to discredit

Death on the Nile
Scream
Elvis
EEAAO
Uncharted
Sonic
Downtown Abby
The Northman
Father Stu would love to have these

I sometimes thing niccas don’t even like movies like that in general no more. Cuz they claim this fatigue or say they don’t like these movies but don’t exactly see them creating threads and talking about going to see and enjoying Firestarter.

There’s been 200+ movies that’s dropped in theaters this year…..

This might be the best marvel film since multiverse of madness

I feel you but at the same time MCU Thor is still a tragic character in spite of the humor


Imagine having the week Thor had at the beginning of Ragnarok.

Escapes imprisonment from some demon

Returns to Asgard to find Loki running it. A few minutes later his fukkin father dies

Before his father's mist(?) is even completely gone Hela walks out of a portal and destroys his hammer

Hela goes on to destroy Asgard and 98% of the population

Thor puts the remaining Asgardians on a ship. MOMENTS later they run into Thanos. Thanos kills the remaining Asgardians AND his brother

Thor misses a legitimate shot at killing Thanos, Thanos erases half the universe

It's shrouded in jokes yea but it don't get more tragic than Thor

All facts
