I have friends that share the comic movie interest that have never bothered to watch Thor Love and Thunder as an example because I told them it was a terrible movie. I still have not watched it based on your comments, and the fact that Ragnarok's forced humor was terrible as well. Artboy99 and D84 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not watched Ant-Man 2 (I only went to Ant-Man 3 with some collector friends, otherwise it was more terrible than expected despite going in with extremely low expectation) or No-BP 2, and do not plan to either.

Beastfeast Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Love and Thunder has such great source material and it’s wild what we ended up with. I made it all the way through and didn’t hate it, but man…what a sloppy edit and missed opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BP2 was completely decent but not very exciting. But that’s how I felt about the first one, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it worse than the Green Knight? I dropped that one after 7 mins, which was giving it a huge chance as I was ready to drop it after the first couple of minutes.

I say yes it is worse but that is because I have high expectations for Marvel as they themselves set the bar high with films like Iron Man 1, Captain America Winter Soldier. Only in Love and Thunder will you see someone they call Thor pull Stormbreaker out of the ground where it has apparently been for long enough that the handle has sprouted roots, put it between his legs and ride it into the sky looking like a witch on a broom. Or a young girl Asgardian who Thor gives lightning powers too destroying monsters in the Shadow Realm with her stuffed toy bunny. Real high quality stuff.

ymisbatg Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 IMHO, this is what happens when the writer/director tries to be funny instead of just focusing on a good story. Thor: Love & Thunder tried too hard to "recreate" the humor in Ragnarok, that many of the jokes fell flat. Larryw7 and AGGIEZ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
