Like I said, I criticize something in an MCU movie and you will defend it to no end. Cap's costume in Avengers was widely criticized, by critics, fans and general audiences alike. There's really no logical reason why his modern-day suit in Avengers would be campier and look more outdated than his suit in CATFA. It's just plain bad costume design, something that MCU fixed in the next installments of Cap. One of MCU's strongest assets is that it learns from its mistakes and actually listens to fans. Does not mean they don't make mistakes.

Another one is how Thor, a thousand year old being, learned humility, had a complete change in personality and found the love of his life after only 2 days on Earth. No matter which way you look at it, that's just some very weak writing and logic.

The logical reason was stated explicitly in the film. I'm not just making something up. They didn't fix it in the next installment, they were always going to introduce a better suit, so the fans telling them to had nothing to do with it. Nobody is arguing that the suit wasn't campy. It was supposed to be campy, which is why Coulson says he had design influence. I really don't see what your criticism is, and my defense is completely valid, so do you expect me to just ignore the purpose of the suit as stated openly in the film?

Thor's personality change. Yeah I mean ok it was pretty quick, but is this really a problem? He thought he was responsible for his dad's death, the last words of which were to express displeasure worthy of banishing him, he lost all of his power, he was in a foreign land presumably forever, and some hot girl was really nice to him. If that were me, yes I'd like her pretty quick and be pissed when I found out my brother was fucking with me, so if that happened a touch fast, ok. It played well. Could they have drafted a version that took weeks, yes. Would it have been any better? I have no idea. I don't see anything bad about this. It worked fine. In fact I'm now excited, I'm going to go watch Thor again right now.

Coulson said that he took the liberty of adding his design input to the suit. He did not say, "Oh I purposely made your suit campy to match your pinup-suit back when you were making promotional rounds". So when you say it was meant to be campy, that's basically just your opinion, based on how you understand Coulson's influence. It was definitely not stated that it was supposed to be campy.

As for Thor's personality change, yes, it's a problem if it was too short. It's called proper character development. That aspect of his character wasn't properly developed, and so his personality change didn't feel natural. It felt contrived and weak. And that is a flaw. Take note that a flaw is not a plothole nor is it some glaring mistake. A flaw can simply be a weakness. Flawed implies not perfect. And in this case, having such a huge personality change over 2 days when you're around 1000 years old IS a flaw. And him falling for Jane just because she was a "hot nice chick" makes Thor look really shallow.
