{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}I know I've griped about Marvel being too kid friendly. But the thought occurred to me regarding the mid-credit scene. For those who has seen the leaked Infinity War trailer. It's safe to say that Thanos killed everyone on that ship except for obviously Thor, Loki, Heimdall, and Hulk.
Pretty sure all of the other Asgardians, Korg, and Mink are dead. Explains why we see Thanos grabbing Thor on the ship too and we see Thor floating in space. I guess what I am trying to say is that it definitely got dark quick. THERE'S A LEAKED INFINITY WARS TRAILER?! It got shut down on all the social media platforms real quick by Marvel/Disney, but it's out there.

Saw it tonight. Loved it, and I'm not a Thor fan. Laughed my ass off. Really fun movie.

Went to it tonight, had a blast. I felt the humour landed about 80% of the time, however there were a couple times that I felt they didn't let things breathe enough after big dramatic moments. Acting was fantastic, pacing was excellent. Definitely one of my favourite MCU flicks

I really can't say enough how great this movie is. Credit to Taika Waititi for taking arguably the MCU's shallowest character and weakest franchise and making what is literally among the top five films in the entire MCU. Amazingly, although it's a laugh riot, they balanced comedy and drama a lot better than you'd figure from the reviews (save for a pratfall toward the climax that fell flat, no pun intended). Literally the only thing I have to complain about this movie is Doctor Strange's cameo, which felt really tacked on, like they were just setting up the pieces for Infinity War.
Also, I would pay good money to see a Valkyrie solo movie. Tessa Thompson nailed that shit.

Had a great time during the movie, really good fun.
Now, thinking back, it kinda lacks any substance or emotional weight - things Spider-Man did better this year while still being hilarious when it needed to be.
Still, very enjoyable movie. Korg is my MVP.

The comedy is all there, but it takes itself seriously enough to hold the storyline together. I laughed, but I also cared about the characters and their issues.

I have to confess: didn't like this movie. Largely because of the over abundance of humor. I dub this phenomena "You Killed My Mother and Destroyed My Walkman" Syndrome, and it seems like Marvel movies are getting even worse with this. There's a time and a place for humor to break tension, but this movie never left a moment to resonate and sink in. Even what should've been a momentous and somber event at the end was ruined by a stupid wisecrack. It doesn't mean that these movies should be Man Of Steel/Batman vs Superman levels of joyless and somber. But like I said, there's a time and a place for humor, and this movie didn't know where to stop with it.
I also didn't like the whole middle part of the film. Its content itself could've been enjoyable, but taken as part of the whole film, the whole thing just screams "we don't know how to stretch the film's main conflict into two hours worth of content, so we need something for Thor to do for an hour in the middle before he fights Hela."

The thing that bummed me out {Spoiler}Was that they killed off the Warriors 3 like they were nothing (except for Hogun, but even he didn't last long in the fight). I really liked those characters, and seeing Ray not even get a line off was kind of disheartening. I get why they did it, but it's still a bummer, as they were 3 of my favorite characters. At least Jamie was smart to not be available for this movie, so maybe Sif was spared in the fight. Otherwise, the movie was a great romp.

Zachary Levi, on the other hand, got to draw his sword and grunt. No wonder he bailed to DC.

I just couldn't fully get behind Valkyrie, and I finally figured out why.
She's too young.
Having seen the movie, I can accept her physical type a little easier, since she isn't necessarily the same character from the comics, her name isn't necessarily even Valkyrie.
But she just seemed too young and fresh to be a hard drinking, battle hardened, traumatized warrior.
I also could have done without the supermodel sashay down the rainbow bridge during the final battle.
She wasn't bad, I just found her less convincingly badass than Sif was, and don't fully understand why everyone is fawning over her so much.
