Thor Ragnarok

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

The blue rocky guy is a friend of Hulk's from the Plant Hulk story line.

Was that Dormamamu at the end? I don't know how to spell it. He's a Dr. Strange baddie. Essentially the devil.

Marvel has good karma for this film.

Also, that line is fucking genius.

A couple of weeks ago, director Taika Waititi suggested that up to a whopping 80% of Thor: Ragnarok is improvisation,
Every time I see that, it's a warning sign.

In this case it might work better. Thor is a boring character. They've always had trouble making him interesting because he's basically invulnerable and a good person. That's why the first movie was a fish out of water story and why the second movie sucked.

Plus What We Do in the Shadows was mostly improvised, so there's hope!

Apparently, The Grandmaster will meet Daryl on the Blu-Ray.

Hilarious.

It's fun.

And they damned near went full slapstick.

Funny movie. I didn't realize it was the other half of What We Do In the Shadows who directed until now.

For the record, reservable, reclining seats are awesome. Never would have bothered with an opening weekend without them.

Great film.

I was also at a theater with reclining seats, which made the movie even better. My whole family loved it. From my nerdy ass to my three daughters who know nothing about the characters to my "I hate Sci-Fi, fantasy, and superheros" wife.

Theater was packed and I've heard less laughing at comedies.

All the performances were great. The action and visuals were pretty stunning as well.

Leaving the name out to avoid spoilers for anyone that hasn't seen the movie.

Kevin Feige wants _____ in another Marvel film.

Love the idea!

I also loved the post credits scene.

You can thank Kevin Smith.

Jut caught it again with the kid in a matinee.

I think Cate Blanchet as Hela is one of the hottest characters ever.

But, then, I've always dug the bad girls.

A really solid movie. The best of the Thor movies by a pretty good margin, despite it having Jeff Goldblum. His screen time was reduced enough that he wasn't annoying.
