Welcome to the main discussion thread for the Marvel Cinematic Universe! This pinned post is here to establish some basic guidelines. All of the Media Forum rules
still apply.
- This thread is for talking about the live-action films, TV shows, animated works, and related content that use the Marvel brand, currently owned by Disney.
- While mild digressions are okay, discussion of the comic books should go in this thread
. Extended digressions may be thumped as off-topic.
- Spoilers for new releases should not be discussed without spoiler tagging for at least two weeks. Rather, each title should have a dedicated thread where that sort of conversation is held. We can mention new releases in a general sense, but please be courteous to people who don't want to be spoiled.
If you're posting tagged spoilers, make sure that the film or series is clearly identified outside the spoiler tagging. People need to know what will be spoiled before they choose to read the post.

I don't think I've found any of the humor in these films particularly cringey.
But then, I have a pretty diverse range of humor.
Edit: Except maybe Banner falling into Widow's breasts early in AOU. That was pretty silly and just there to push that romance.

You cannot firmly grasp the true form of Squidward's technique!Maybe is why I dont like him: it feel is just jeff goldblum being him rather than a chararter, kinda like how robert jr start just acting himself in Iron man 2 rather than Tony stark.
Overall, this is why I like and dont like of Ragnarok:
-I really enjoy Thor fight with Sultur, I find him eactly what I expect: awsome, brutal and somewhat cocky.
-But I the same time I didnt really like the final fight, overall mook fighting does nothing for me but show how cool the hero are and while Thor power was awsome, I just come to me as nordic version of Raiden from mortal kombat.
-Valkyrie....just....damn, people were right, she STOLE the show, if someone should replace Thor is her.
-The movie finally confirm what everyone kinda suspect of Odin having a shady past and being quite ruthless in the past, of course he dies before that and any meanifull confrontation stop mattering because of that.
-I have mixed vibes for the imperalism motivation, is good but for some reason Hela remind me of some old iron age conqueror like shao khan rather a "Modern" imperalism should be, usually Imperalist choke themselves with jargon, holiest than you behivor while Hela is just "im awfull and proud of it" which come as little bit to cartoonish for me.
-Saakar: I remenber when media pushover critic actually guess the used of Saakar in the movie and other troopers said it would be stupid since it would cut Hulk best arc for a Thor one.....in turn out they were right to said that.
-The three amigos: I know they were useless but having them die so pointless come as disrespecting, also where is Sif?.
-So they finally manage to tone down loki which is good, on the other hand I feel he have being forgiven quite easly, specially banner since Loki use him.
-I kinda like Hela, so far they did a good job of not shitting her like every other villian for the sake of humor or a joke, that is a good start.
So my veredict is....better than thor 2 I guess.
"My Name is Bolt, Bolt Crank and I dont care if you believe or not"I still think it's bullshit that Valkyrie was never actually named in the fucking movie. And she only exists because Waititi couldn't wrap his brain around a female character being "worth" Thor or being able to challenge him as a character despite not being a physical match for him.
My various fanfics.They didn't refer to her as anything other than "The Valkyrie". Which yeah, I can kind of empathize that it was weird they never actually named her, but I really could not care much about that complaint.
The attack towards Waititi though, I don't understand that and have never heard him say anything about that.
Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?Sorry, my bad, that was Kevin Feige who said that stupid horseshit. That's my fault.
My various fanfics.Loki being easily forgiven is something I could look past because Thor preempts the inevitable backstab this time and accuses Loki of being a static character
So Loki proves him wrong out of spite
(Also based on the snake story their whole history has been based on Loki being easily forgiven by Thor)
Forever liveblogging the Avengers...yeah, I can see this as being a bit iffy to describe Valkyrie in comparison with Jane.
Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?
And yet it is a add qway to describe it, Jane was pretty much the mary jane of Thor peter: the muggle love who never past of asking what the super special men is doing.
sad but true.
Also a little here the stonemason in Agent of Shield is in fact the father of Skorne in the movie, he left him when he wsa a boy and he that create him the idea of proving himself to asgard
I dont know, I just like that chararter, shame he die.
"My Name is Bolt, Bolt Crank and I dont care if you believe or not"

Jeff Goldblum is very much alive!
