17. "It’s lesser Ragnarok, and that’s fine" In response to In response to 0
They found a formula that works for Thor and I’m not mad they repeated it. It brought to mind the one flaw in Ragnarok though: both of these movies have serious villains that feel misplaced in a comedy movie. It’s odd, but Ragnarok got away with it more smoothly. Bale was great here, as was Blanchett in Ragnarok, their stories just felt a little weird given the tone.
Also, Marvel keeps doing “fake out” deaths now, and it’s pretty annoying. I know that’s how comic books are, but it makes even real deaths feel weightless.
