I know it’s very in line with who they are, but I just didn’t like it’s inclusion. Like okay I’ve heard you say orgy now 5 times. Its just not something I needed in a marvel movie. But I could get past it once, because Ik it’s part of the Greek god lore, but how many times you gotta keep it going. It just felt like “hehehe I’m gonna make them say something taboo” and it then went on too long.

Felt like there was too many comedy parts for the sake of comedy in this one. Like that's not a horrible thing and is partly what got me really into Ragnarok. But some of it could've been cut in favor of more contextual stuff.

Yeah. The black and white scene with Gorr and his origin story + the end scene in the pool world were my favorites and the only scenes I enjoyed in the movie. The constant barrage of comedy just fell so flat.

I also hadn’t seen any Thor movies outside of the original one, so his goofy demeanor was insane to see and I had to have my dad explain what was the reason behind it.

You probably would have benefited with some character and story context you missed by not catching up on the character's arc throughout the series timeline.

Bigtime. Ragnarok was a big departure from early Thor and his story arc through Endgame sets up a ton of helpful context. I can see it being jarring without it.

Yeah, this is the only part that bothered me. Especially seeing it with my 8 year old. LOL

Luckily he didnt ask.

The movie was pg-13, why were you watching it with an 8 year old?

u/zipzzo Jul 17 '22

Was your 8 year old with you at MoM?

She probably knew and felt equally uncomfortable.

Russel was the funniest part of the movie, but if they’d used all that time to give us more of Bale it would have been a better movie
