Superhero Cinematic Civil War - Part 58

[Spider-Fan]

Maybe not all the comedy landed in the movie, but....Love & Thunder was fantastic!!!!

 

[Iceman]

Love & Thunder was another classic Thor adventure, critics can go scratch

Glad you enjoyed it dude. The reactions seem divided so far so it’s interesting to see what side people come up on after viewing. I love both Taika films.

 

[Pennywise]

I’m still really excited to see the film!

I think either this or NWH are the best Phase 4 movie so far. There is maybe a tad too many jokes, but there is also a lot of emotional and dramatic weight here and their use of the Marvel Cosmology was sublime. This movie was just awesome

 

[Chip Chipperson]

There was maybe one or two jokes that went on where I was like “Ok Taika, let’s reign it in” and the Korg luster seems to be wearing off a bit, but most of the humor hit for me. The Thor and Jane stuff really provided the heart of the movie, was nice seeing those two reconnect after all this time.

Natalie Portman really looked like she put in time at the gym too. There were some shots of her arms where I was like “damn gurl”

Sounds great to me!

I felt like that with Ragnarok too on the jokes front. Taika’s always treading the line of fine if you stop now and too much. I often have recency bias so it’s a compliment to Ragnarok that I can still see a bunch of areas where Ragnarok is better, but this is also better in a bunch of ways. I prefer Valkyrie here to her prior appearances and with the addition of Portman as a convincing Thor it’s another great Taika Thor-and-friends adventure and I’d be up for another.

This has better emotional moments than Ragnarok and those were left free of jokes unlike in Ragnarok.

Most of Ragnarok’s jokes landed pretty well for me, which I can’t say for most stuff in the MCU.

I want to watch this again before making a judgment between it and Ragnarok. But I would say Ragnarok had better overall comedy, but this movie maybe wins on emotional/dramatic elements. There were a lot of scenes here where I was getting a bit misty. I would also say as much as I loved Hela, Gorr was a better villain. He is in it less, but he was aces when he was there. Ragnarok was the best sequel to Flash Gordon ever made though! So I think that wins on overall style and visuals.

It is close for me

 

[Pennywise]

I also want to see more of Murdock’s radar/how he sees things visually a lot more as well! We only saw it once as he was talking to Claire in S1.

Love and Thunder is the stuff of summer movie dreams lol. I just wanted more from Gor.

I loved Love and Thunder. So good. Definitely needed to flesh some things out more but that's not what this movie was

It was a blast. I think an extra 10 minutes would have helped things but a breezy 2 hours worked for what the film was

Browsing the Star Wars Hot Toys, definitely makes me feel better about my SH Monsterart collection.
