Oh,oh, wait I didn't finish the movie  . The yellow filter annoyed me greatly and stopped watching but because of more personal reasons (my country is always given sepia/yellow filters just to convey how "hot" and how much of a "desert" it is. And it irks me because it's loving stereotypical). Then I forgot about it and never picked it up again. I mean, it took me a whole year to remember to finish watching The Witcher.

Episode was great. I think this is my favorite so far, with Dr. Strange right after. At the start when Frigga says goodbye, I was like "oh, it's a teenager ruins the house while the parents are gone story. nice." It was outright stated by Darcy later, but was still great. Also, Drax should not have been talking about party pooping, as his species is entirely literal. Furthermore,

I'm all for letting Hemsworth ham it up, he's wonderful and who cares anyway, Marvel is silly comics stuff, right? Until we get to the OBVIOUS SPLENDOR OF VON DOOM, of course, at which point it is all srz bznz

live with fruit posted:There's still a good amount of comedy in the earlier Thor movies, especially the first one, it's just mostly tied up in Jane, Darcy and Selvig. But there was still all the fish out of water scenes with Thor where he's smashing mugs and whatnot. Apparently the mug smashing scene was improved by Hemsworth. Portman and Denning’s reaction was real. He was always a funny guy, Ragnarok just let him show that off.

Yeah that felt like a waste of 20 minutes to me. It's me. I'm the party poopah. Though the end with Marvel vs Capcom 4 Infinity Armor Ulto-Vision was nice.

DrBouvenstein posted:Watched the latest What If...? and my main question throughout most of it, that I THOUGHT they were hinting at answering, was why was everyone partying? Do you not have that one friend who cajoles you into partying harder and longer than you'd intended due to their raw party energy, and whose parties seem to get bigger and bigger and ultimately out of control? Dude just throws a great party. Also most of the partying is done by extraterrestrials. So it''s that more people are turning up to a great party. There are plenty of people you see not partying, like the members of SHIELD. Anyway that was a fun and stupid episode and I've so far preferred the fun and stupid to the Dr Strange/Captain Carter self-serious side. I feel like when MCU gives its characters space to breathe, and isn't just about giving dumb nerds another serving of dumb nerd canon to add to the manifold wiki pages, you remember that there are actually talented writers at the helm who can tell creative and reflective stories, and actors that can give compelling performances. Like those episodes in Loki (or Loki's whole big final monologue) that didn't necessarily move the overall machinery of the MCU forwards but made for interesting and thoughtful TV.

I liked the explicit reveal that if Odin just hadn't stolen a child then the result is that everyone would have been much happier and in healthy relationships with each other.

It's a clear thoroughline in the Thor-movies that anything good happens in-spite of Odin rather than because of him. He's just the worst father and/or ruler ever.

I am curious about the size discrepancy between normal Loki and this Loki. Did Odin just gently caress up and assume Loki was a runt in the normal timeline or was this Loki big enough as a baby that Odin thought it would be a good gesture of peace instead of saving a baby he assumed was left to die.

Loki just would have naturally become a giant like all of his family and friends, but because he was raised to believe he was a pink little scarecrow, his magic reflects that. It’s like a magic version of The Matrix, Loki’s “base” is however he sees himself. I know we’ll never get to see Frost Giant Hiddleston on the big screen loving poo poo up, but holy poo poo I want it more than anything. Loki//Hulk rematch when!!!??

I think that Thor is just projecting an electro-magnetic “good vibes” field which causes people to chill out, relax, loosen up… it’s just that when this field reaches a high enough frequency, you end up with pilots and surgeons and fire fighters and nuclear engineers just crushing up pills and phoning it in and tying one on or just not even showing up and by the end of the month you’re probably looking at multiple full scale global catastrophes

He's doing a sequel, but he's still played Thor way more often. Maybe he just wants to do different stuff. I'm cool with that. Hell I thought he did a good job in his one villain role as a nasty cult leader in Bad Times at the El Royale.
