Great job, world. I now have even less faith in you.  |

Wow. Well that was unexpected. Who'd have thought such a mediocre movie would have such long legs.

That's pretty awesome. I thought it was such a fun movie. Tom Hardy was just so watchable. He was hamming it up in the best possible way. I can't wait for the sequel.

It is crazy that the movie has made so much money. It was cool, but just an okay film. Ragnarok was SO MUCH better in every way.

Wow, the overperformer of the year. Congrats Sony for creating one beast of a money-maker (with the 2018 CBM lead performance), and for one artistically valuable CBM with SM:SV.
I bet Thor Fragglerock now cries like a girl when getting a haircut; I trust Venom will teach James Gunn what a famously huge turds in the wind really looks like.

I know it is all opinion, but I find it REALLY hard to believe that anyone actually likes Venom better than Ragnarok. I know you are a troll, but still. |

But but but the Transformers movies made a lot of money too and those movies suck so you can't point to box office results!
Isn't that how this discussion usually goes?

Thor:Fragglerock turned THE greatest European end-time myth (Ragnarök) into a trashy jokefest with rock songs. It also crapped on all previously established plot points and character build-ups - like suddenly reducing Loki (one of the greatest villains in mythology ever) into a bumbling sidekick, or dropping the core star-crossed-lovers theme and characters, or making Thor a hammer-less crybaby comedien, or making Godfather Odin a senile dust-hermit. Also, it's humor, tone and screenplay were childishly pandering to 8 year olds (only GotG was worse!).
I know you are an uneducated bully, but still.
Only merit this color-blind mess has is that you don't see it when you puke on it

I love your uneducated claims all of the time on here. I don't talk about myself a bunch, but I am a doctor. I guarantee that I have way more education and have been around the world more than you ever will. You are a troll, plain and simple. I get tired of seeing your asinine posts on here. |

People point to the box office when they enjoyed the film, they insist it means nothing when they didn't. Personally I don't care either way. Venom looks like garbage to me so I don't plan on seeing it anytime soon. If they find a way to merge the character into the MCU, I'm all for it. Still have no interest in seeing this particular film. Good for Sony for taking a risk and having it pan out, I'll say that. |

The Marvel comic book version of Thor, of which the Ragnarok movie is based on, is only fairly LOOSELY inspired by the actual mythology of the Norsemen. The differences between the Thor of mythology and the Thor of the Marvel comic books are almost like night and day - Thor in mythology is a grizzly red headed brute who couldn't cares less if he had the throne of Asgard or not, is not particularly charming, cannot fly, and his hammer can be wielded by anybody. Thor in the comics is portrayed as much youthful looking, cocky yet friendly to most, next in line of the throne of Asgard, can fly, and his hammer is enchanted and can only be used by him. Sif is sensitive Thor's golden haired wife in mythology, in the Marvel comic she is a raven haired warrior who has only been Thor's occasional love interest and can handle herself just fine alongside any other male Asgardian soldier. Loki in mythology is not a god but a juton who becomes Odin's blood brother and not of any brotherhood to Thor(in most renditions), has two wives, the giver of birth to Odin's eight-legged steed, is the real Kickstarter to Armageddon, rivals with Heimdall, and is by no means much of a fighter. Loki in the Marvel comic is Thor's step-brother, a prince of Asgard, and has skill in combat...Honestly, we could be here all day with the numerous differences between the comic and the actual mythology. |

And if all of that still is not good enough for the hater crowd, this was all explained anyway. It was said that when the Asgardians first visited Earth, the humans thought they were Gods and created their own mythology around them. Thor even says that it is not all correct and most has been embellished. |

Does this person still think that "Fragglerock" is clever? It's on the same intellectual level as calling Superman, "Stupidman".

This is why I think they should recast Batman with Logan Marshall-Green. Not only does he have better name recognition thanks to Upgrade but now people will think he's Tom Hardy.

I get tired of seeing your asinine posts on here. hey, we actually have someting in common for once, I hold two academic titles, one is Doctor too. What kind of doctorate, or do you mean physician as in HCP? Btw academic titles are no "guarantee" for education and/or travelling, alas, as your false cause fallacy demonstrates. Do you even have a passport?
Tell me Doc, when you explicitly ask me, and then profess to love my "uneducated claims", why in the world would you get tired of them? Maybe bc they are facts and you cannot debunk them? Maybe because you cannot bear the truth?
My diagnosis and advise: Don't ask, don't tell. Will remedy any butt sore.

I have a Doctorate in Hospital Leadership and a Master's in Health Administration. I traveled the world because I was in the Air Force for many years in my youth. I still work for the government today. Also, what truth do you speak of? Here is how you work and it is eerily similar to DC Fan, you hate everything and anything the MCU puts out no matter what. If the MCU came out with Venom, you would hate it beyond belief. I am 100% positive of this, especially with how childish that movie is. |

Loki in the Marvel comic is Thor's step-brother, a prince of Asgard, and has skill in combat...Honestly, we could be here all day with the numerous differences between the comic and the actual mythology. well, all the more reason to call it Fragglerock. If you bastardize, trivialize and infantize one of the most epic myths in human history then you should not call it Ragnaröck - why not call it "Thor clobbers Skathaar". Also, there are countless re-constructions and reinterpretations of the Norse/Germanic mythology, eg in Richard Wagner's Ring Cycle the story plays very different (Götterdämmerung). But always with respect to the source material and it never becomes stupid and irritating down to Valhalla/Asgard being destroyed played as an idiotic joke. You fanboys cry salty rivers when the silly Mandarin gets a clever twist, yet out of sheer cultural ignorance you are indifferent when an entire ancient religion and mythology is desecrated. And lol at Thor a "brute...not charming"…? - Thor was by far the most popular deity of the Norse pantheon, people prayed to him for protection (there are STILL people believing in these Gods). - Thor’s popularity reached its height during the Viking Age (c. 790-1100 CE) at which time he was considered by the Church the greatest rival to Christ;- Thor was the defender of Asgard, realm of the gods, and Midgard, the human realm, and is primarily associated with protection through great feats of arms in slaying giants. - have you ever pondered where THURSday derives from (hint: a God) or in German the same day " Donnerstag" Do yourself a favor and watch something semi-serious for once, like this (campy) history channel doc about Thor: |
