They must've had a ton of fun doing this movie. The action, the humor: this hit the same nuanced balance, imo, that Chris Reeves did in 1978's Superman movie. Just enough tongue-in-cheek to remind us this is a live-action comic-book without spoiling the action or drama.
PS: Blanchett as Hela was great.
PPS: If I were to make one criticism of Thor:Rag, it's that it seemed a little too Star-Warsy near the end. But hey, these are the times. Comic books have been more scifi for a while now, so it did make some sense this would translate into film ... especially with Thanos looming.

My only real problem was again too much humor. That being said it didn't ruin the movie for me like the Dark World. In some ways it helped. Im sure Infinity War will be much, much darker in tone

Best of the Thor movies which isn't saying much since the first two were garbage. Really liked Ragnarok. A bit too much Guardians style humor but overall really good.
I feel Ragnarok was the most fun comic movie Ive seen this year. Logan is probably the best.

I agree but I do think its Marvel saying "enjoy it while you can....." Im pretty sure Infinity War is going to be dark.....really dark. And as John Campea said, Ragnarok might be the darkest MCU film yet....at least in terms of what happened.

Yeah it is one of the most immersive origin stories I’ve seen and some of the best character work. It’s a movie with less action but a lot of beautiful moments.
