THOR: RAGNAROK - KEVIN SMITH'S REVIEW

[@brookbuxton8225]

It was really cool how Odin (Anthony Hopkins) made it a point not only to notice Loki's presence in Norway, but said " I love you my SONS." The look on Loki's face when he heard it....

[@macmcleod1188]

I agree so much. I think that is a key statement to loki's redemption because it's the first time that Loki believed that Odin meant it.

[@randyzochoa6358]

In a movie full of jokes my favorite is Korg coming from off screen to kick Loki and say "piss off ghost."

[@joneshugh]

It's NOT a JKK Thor movie.

[@antona.1327]

Jack Kirby would hate this movie. He never liked the idea of making characters self-aware and jokey. Especially characters who are supposed to be gods. Also, why should Jack Kirby-inspired set design even exist on the world of Sakaar, a world which he did not create?

[@Diguitz]

Omg! YES!!!!

[@swistedfilms]

I'm not going to argue that Masters of the Universe wasn't a trainwreck, because it was. And that doesn't mean that it can't be done right. Just like Batman came to embrace the larger implications of a masked vigilante, so can MOTU embrace the larger implications of a realm where powers like those possessed by Prince Adam and Skeletor exist. It takes a good writer and a lot of forethought to take a cartoon property like He-Man and turn it into a viable movie but it's not impossible. For example, you can flesh out the larger implications of Cringer. He could be shown as a gentle soul with a huge capacity for compassion. Not so much a coward as one who detests violence, and resents it when He-Man transforms him into Battlecat. Perhaps we can make Skeletor a somewhat sympathetic creature, a creature who feels like he has a genuine claim to the throne of Eternia, a claim that the gentle Cringer doesn't think is wholly wrong. But only when Skeletor crosses the Moral Event Horizon does Cringer see that Skeletor must be defeated, as someone who has become an extremist in his goals. Thus do we see growth for all characters. I'm not sure how to make a Plastic Man movie though. The character was always something of a goof so it would have to be campy and fun. Maybe it could ultimately be a love story, as many of the best movies are. Let's see: lovable but unreliable goof loses girl who sees him, rightly, as a dead end. Goof gets powers and defeats Big Bad with powers while making quips, and goof wins girl back by showing he can be responsible. They kiss, roll credits.

[@hognatius_valentine9057]

This is one of those films that will stand repeat viewing. There's so much goodness in it. I literally was grinning and laughing from the top to the bottom of this film. It's just joyous. It is very funny and I think Marvel have pitched it deliberately so because the Thor franchise needs re-energising and also, for those complaining about Marvel making comedies, Smith is right- things are going to get a lot more serious with Black Panther and Avengers: Infinity War. Either way, Ragnarok is a brilliant crowd pleaser and it's definitely going to be taking my money again.

[@LyricalDJ]

Yeah, that was definitely a good thing. There are a lot of trailers these days where they just show way too much parts of major events and/or plot moments. A trailer should whet the appetite, not spoil half the movie.

[@magnamic5614]

Denni Wintyr, This blew me away. That and the people at Mavel knew what info was the most important to keep from us. If someone complains there’s no stakes in a Marvel movie they’re on crack. Death and destruction felt real here. Nothing will ever be the same and Marvel would be wise to keep it this way.

[@magnamic5614]

Amy J. Delevingne, Nope, I respectfully disagree. Marvel does not have this problem you’re talking about. People like to complain about it sure but that’s because people love to try and find fault somewhere. If it was really, I mean REALLY a problem then their sales would reflect that. Look at Green Lantern for example, that movie tried this and failed but that’s because all the elements didn’t come together correctly and Taika Waititi was in that damn movie too! Marvel does not have a problem. People have a problem with Marvel and their continued success streak. When you’re on top where else is there to go but down? And someone wants to be that person to find fault to bring about said downfall. It will happen. This amount of success is unheard of for one newly formed studio. Anyway, the movie is great. The jokes are memorable and funny. It’s a movie of pure childhood dreams come true. Also, haters.

[@magnamic5614]

Amy J. Delevingne, I agree he doesn’t but that’s because he knows what a beautiful time we are in for these types of movies. Let’s be honest here, it could be much, much worse. Studios are now taking notes from the comic book genre. Stars are now beginning to really embrace the craziness that is comics and trying to blend in. People now understand when I talk about Captain America, Falcon, Cyborg, Green Arrow, Green Lantern and these are really great attributes coming from an area that people used to look down on. I remember a while back a friend of mine telling me the comic scene will never take over Hollywood or come close to the respect or numbers Star Wars would. Well, never say never. Kevin is right to embrace all this and rarely find fault. He’s enjoying what could have turned into a hot pile of pure garbage year after year. Instead we are getting closer and closer to perfection in the comic movie scene. Sure it’s not for everyone and I’m fine with that but no one can sit here and tell me all these movies aren’t great. The comic book movie genre never needs to be a Blade Runner or Inception, they can be, but they don’t have to be. They’re fantastical first and foremost. Embrace it. Don’t push it away. We should never forget that. Kevin sure hasn’t.

[@magnamic5614]

Amy J. Delevingne, So true, my friend. So true.

[@swistedfilms]

Cate Blanchette is EVERYTHING! What an amazing performance! Idris Elba gets some badass moments, there's some last minute redemption, Robert Plant screaming and Jimmy Page wailing on guitar as Thor opens a can of whoopass, and a lot of heart too. Do yourself a favor and see it!

[@HfilmReviews]

one of my favorite scenes in this movie, was when Thor was locked in the chair and being moved along to meet The Goldblum, and "pure imagination" is playing as he freaks lol

[@sertaki]

"The Goldblum" is just as fitting a title for his character as any.

[@Y2JFan94]

Those people who are complaining thats its "Too funny" its SUPPOSE to be a comedy. Like Cap 2 was a political thriller, Ant-Man being a heist, Guardian's Vol 1 was about space and Vol 2 was about family!! Thor 3 is the best one out of the trilogy. Marvel took a chance of doing something DIFFERENT other than doing the same old Thor movies that many people complained about bitched about Bravo Marvel for taking a chance and succeeding!

[@Roper122]

Well... no, it's still possible to complain, whether it's supposed to be funny or not. However you look at it, Thor's personality took a huge turn in this movie. They did take a chance, and it did work... but they have to be very careful with what they're doing to the character.

Pat yourself on the back @Kevin Smith. Chris Hemsworth has credited you as being one of the reasons for the change in tone from (IMO the very dreary) Thor: The Dark World, to (I know it's been overused, but FUN best describes this movie) Thor: Ragnarok. With Thor: The Dark World holding the worst Rotten Tomatoes score (66%) out of all 17 MCU movies, Thor: Ragnarok was odds on going to be an improvement. Very few would have picked Thor: Ragnarok to hold the second best RT score (currently 93%) out of the entire MCU franchise.

[@antona.1327]

And why would someone apply Kirby's art style in relation to the world (Sakaar) which he didn't create? Sakaar was designed by Carlo Pagulayan and Aaron Lopresti. Maybe instead apply Kirby's art style to the characters and worlds which he did create - Asgard, Thor, Loki, Surtur, what else? Why not make them look like how Kirby envisioned them?

He knows how to balance the heavy with humour without ignoring the former. What I love about the humour he infuses in his films is it usually picks fun of his characters without being degrading. He's just wonderful.

[@RighteousBrother]

I thought the first Thor had plenty of comedic moments, and Thor has some of the funniest lines in the Avengers movies - not as much as Thor: Ragnarok admittedly but he's not as serious as everyone's been making out recently.

[@JSSTyger]

The difference between Ragnarok and The Avengers was that Ragnarok had jokes that made sense and fit. The "he was adopted" nonsense from The Avengers had nothing to do with the fact that Loki was a god and was killing people. Nobody cared about their actual relation in that situation.

[@micmorgan84]

People like to repeat things that reviewers say.

[@Botwin66]

RighteousBrother "Uh...he's adopted?" Thor: Ragnarok was Marvel saying "Let's take that comedic ball and run with it", and they pulled it off beautifully.

[@Mitsuraga]

I agree that Thor gets too much crap for being the "boring" Avenger, and that he had some legit funny bits in the Avengers film. I do wish they'd let him lean a little harder on the old-timey speak like from the comics, so the audience can watch him slowly adapt to normal speak over time. Yes, the first Thor had several comedic moments, but most of them were concentrated on Jane Foster's dumbass friend who added literally nothing to the story.

[@tshidisomakoti5904]

Maybe it might give GOTG a run for it's money but deadpool ma nigga it's not even up for debate

[@colinferguson7400]

Banner jumping out of the spaceship, failing to Hulk out, and splattering on the rainbow bridge comes to mind...but for me it was the feel of the whole movie that was more fun and funny that GOTG. I love both Guardians movies and they're a little more deep and emotional, but Ragnarok was more fun throughout, kinda like Deadpool. But I liked the comedy style in Ragnarok more than DP with all the fourth-wall breaking and pop culture references. Thinking about it now, it's like Guardians style jokes (situational humor and character interactions) in a Deadpool style tone (fun and self-aware).

[@colinferguson7400]

Yeah. Deadpool is like Family Guy style comedy, where it's irreverent and fourth-wall breaking and shocking and funny the first time but doesn't really hold up on multiple viewings. Some of the jokes in Deadpool are a little groan-inducing, like the Rosie O'Donnell reference.

Also, the dropping of Banner to the ground I also thought was a bit of a sentiment to him no longer having control over Hulk and showing us that as the universe progresses the ability to control each other becomes less and less. Another gem that was missed is the question to the mythology of Ragnarok in that it is part of a cycle that happens with Asgard. With certain nods to the Norse mythos, the destruction of Asgard forces a reset or rebirth of the realm. The beginning of the end result as we had seen was Thor begin to take on the physical characteristics of Odin as he becomes Odin in the rebirth. Obviously Loki stole the tesseract and Thanos' ship intercepts them at the post credits placing another of the gemstones in his reach setting up the infinity war story line. Finally, it is a bit of a stretch but with the wisdom share of Dr. Strange in the beginning (and with the Black Panther showing up, Tony Stark sticking around and Dr. Strange appearing) I have long thought that the next phase in the marvel universe would include the Illuminati and I think with this we had just witnessed the first scene of this having Dr. Strange watching over the world and showing Thor the way to Odin. Some interesting moments in the film to also take in and totally agree, one of the best Marvel films to date. Justice League has a mountain in front of them. I only hope they can deliver the goods as well...

[@christopheredwards5337]

Sorry but by far the most fun I've had in 2017 and i liked WW and Logan and Guardians. The script was perfect with each joke. They do a Zepplin opening montage wtf! Hulk naked lmao and Thor got the Loki beatdown. Goldblum getting constant laughs. And christ Cate was amazing as Hela. Idc for me the best Marvel film to date just because not 1 second i was ever bored in this film. I'm seeing this twice this weekend lol This film had at least 100 jokes the next year your going to see memes now of watch. God Krog was awesome and who gave Thor a haircut lol

[@ej_029]

I agree. I fucking love this movie.

[@MGSBigBoss77]

Thor Ragnarok just the beginning for Kevin Smith in late 2017. Justice League and Star Wars The Last Jedi are also coming up pretty soon. The reviews might be kinda bias, but we don't really care its what we all like and will have our minds totally blown over! Kevin's like alot of us? Is going to be on "Cloud 9" in no time at all. And next year's already shaping up to be good with; Black Panther, Ready Player One, Avengers Infinity War, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, The New Mutants, Pacific Rim Uprising, The Predator, Deadpool 2, Alita: Battle Angel And sheer tons of untold great shit coming up as well in the next 6 to 8 months or so already!!! Get excited folks....

Ah come on The homie Pennywise don't say that? They're all apart of the same genre of superheroes from the comics being adapted for the big screen! Forget the comic company labels of DC or Marvel behind them and just go watch'em all, simple enough for your enjoyment at the box office right!

Logan Blade Runner 2049 Dunkirk Thor Ragnorak Baby Driver are my top 5 movies this year Thor was so awesome it got me so pumped for the new God of War

[@Aleph-Noll]

blade runner was so darn good, more people should have paid to see it. the director who made it is truly one of the few great working filmmakers of our time

[@shoogagoogagunga4350]

There was a year in the 80s -- maybe 1984 -- when SO MANY classic movies came out. It was just an amazing year for movies, and a lot of movies that people think of as "classic 80s movies" are actually all from a single year. I think, looking at your post, Aaron, that maybe 2017 is another amazing year for movies. Maybe not "serious Grammy winning bio-pics" or something, but just... this year will be fondly remembered.

[@DemonicLoki]

shoogagoogagunga ive seem a movie every week. im not gonna lie this year has been very consistent for movies 2017 has also been epic for video games I might even say best year ever lol and I been playing since Nintendo

[@tthorough4741]

Epic movie from beginning to end action, comedy, drama this movie has it all MCU finally shows how powerful Thor really is and Hela baddest female comic character ever brought to the big screen wonder woman has nothing on Hela period

I love that you guys talk about the emotional moments as well as the awesome ones. I feel like they're often overlooked amongst the admittedly awesome action scenes and jokes.

[@cognitivedissonance8406]

Thor, son of Odin Surtur, son of...a bitch, you're still alive! I'm still laughing at this

[@RFerrer]

8:00 Lol! That scene was amazing. Although after watching that scene, you have to ask yourself, is it any wonder that Loki hates Thor? :D

[@todorov62]

You guys didn't talk about *MASSIVE FUCKING SPOILERS FOLLOW* thor losing his eye and basically becoming Odin/ Old Man Thor, it's so badass and just shows that the director read the comics and i find that so awesome

[@sycois]

Just saw this amazing movie 3 days ago, and watching this review just now really drove home just how dense the awesomeness in it was! Take a bow, Mr. Waititi! You knocked it out of the park!!

[@ArcaneRez]

I disagree slightly, there was a threat to Earth in the form of Hela attempting to cross the rainbow bridge and destroy the nine realms.

[@hitman4DAcowboyz]

I can't believe y'all didn't say anything about the dr !! Soooooooo goooooood !!

[@jamesphillips586]

one little irony, in the original legend Loki is instrumental in the destruction of Asgard. In the movie Loki is instrumental in the destruction of Asgard, but he does it to help the good guys.

[@danielcopeland3544]

Loki's arc in the MCU has been pretty much his arc in the legends in reverse -- he _starts_ as a traitor and murderer and _ends up_ as a loyal companion of Thor.

[@heatherdale5571]

One of my favorite relationships in the movie was Valkarie and Hulk...fun, friendly and just plain adorable :)

[@tomtomthebear]

You know Loki took the teseract to bargain with thanos...!!! He stared at it in Odins treasury..!!!

[@FtonDavid]

22:00 I was curious who voiced hulk and was tickled pink with the answer: "Up until now, every version of MCU Hulk has been voiced by Incredible Hulk '70s TV series icon, Lou Ferrigno; however, Ferrigno wasn't brought back for Thor: Ragnarok. So, who is the new voice Hulk? Marvel fans will be proud to know that it's Bruce Banner himself, actor Mark Ruffalo!" source: comicbook.com

[@jeremyrfritz]

As soon as I got home from seeing Ragnarok I watched Flash Gordon and Buckaroo Banzai.

[@kringle1369]

You guys said how even Hopkins was having a bit of fun... when he (Loki in disguise) sees Thor walking towards him while talking to some asgardians after the play, he’s like “oh shit”... I cracked up.

i have a question, if Thor is the God of thunder and he got an electrical shock device planted in his neck, why does it taser him? Since being a god and all wouldn't that also mean magical electricity, you know the kind he can shoot out of his eyes'n'stuff also have no effect on him?

man you really know what you are talking about, everything you said about Ragnarok on preparing for the darkeness ahead, lot of death, that loki had his days numbered and how was setting the tone for the movies ahead, and lot of things like that.. you were actually spoiling Infinity War/Endgame year and half ago.... love you're reviews i'm watching all your videos !..

Best comic book movies I've seen in ages. Not too serious and heavy. Just what I want in a movie

[@CodyJamez707]

Hey guys! I always enjoy your reviews and this review was no different! I feel exactly like the two of you. This movie was freaking awesome and worth seeing multiple times in the theatre! After Guardians 2 ROCKED the world I had a great feeling that Thor would pack a huge punch, but honestly after watching Spider-Man Homecoming I didn't want to hold my breath! Luckily, Marvel has yet again shown us they will do absolutely anything to keep outdoing each previous release in this amazing decade long saga. Frankly, I won't be surprised if Black Panther breaks the box office records Thor Ragnarok is going to set, and then Infinity Wars after that! HOW LUCKY ARE WE to live in this incredibly talented time to witness MARVEL in all of its greatness? To Fatman and Batman... will MARVELS achievements from Ironman til now EVER be outdone? Thanks for your reviews fella's, can't wait for the JUSTICE LEAGUE in a few days! Much love from the D!

[@DKGifford19608]

Not trying to troll just real feedback. The audio is not great in the venue and I preferred this show without an audience. Babble needs an audience - Fat Man has a two guy intimacy that is lost in front of a crowd in a theme bar. I miss the old format. I don't mind Kevin repeating himself across his many audio/social media platforms but it's feel just too repetitive when he's telling stories to get an audience. Please think about just getting back to the old style.

[@CybermanBill]

DKGifford19608 agreed!! I think this show worked better without an audience. I liked the 2 man "intimacy" when it was just them in the studio! 🤖🤓

[@itariwasashi1645]

If you guys are here for man on man intimacy... You're in the wronnnnnnng place

[@mrholiday13]

Period, the end. Playing for an audience changes the dynamic (almost) completely. Smith is too much of a people pleaser to not, after taking the crowds temperature, would adjust his delivery.

[@Dormul]

My favorite format for the show was when it was an hour long audio podcast.

[@everettharris967]

I want to "ditto" this comment. Furthermore, the length is just right currently, in the 20-30 minute range. It's really hard to fit in 2 hours for this particular show like when it's live.

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Been obsessing about Ragnarok lately, such a great movie. I've been working on my Thor costume and just watching as much stuff about the movie as possible since I've watched it 12 times in the past week while I work on the damn costume.

[@skylander5116]

How is Ragnarok a great movie? Wtf were you watching? I guess you're happy with the fact that Thor was getting son'd by everybody and everything in this movie! He looked like a fucking wimp! How does a god, get trapped in a web trap by those weird creatures in the beginning? How does Thor not rip thru that shit? He looked so fucking weak! Also, why is Thor finally calling upon his great lightning strength and literally just punching and kicking those dudes in the end? Why isn't he literally eviscerating all of them like it's nothing??? That was so weak!!! Also, how is a little shock device knocking him out so easily whenever Valkyrie activated it? ....but yet, Loki was still conscious in the end when it was on his back and getting shocked. SMH. Thor was so weak in this fucking movie it was a joke. Oh yea, when he threw the ball to the window and bounced and hit him in the head. How the fuck do u explain that shit? He's a complete joke, yet he's supposed to be a god.

Funniest part hands down was Banner in the stolen Grandmaster's ship. "Oh! This looks like a gun!" UNCE UNCE UNCE UNCE "Its my birthday" Ruffalo looked 100% HORRIFIED.

After watching Thor I gave it 8 out of 10, then watched it and in 3D and gave it 9 out of 10 fantastic 3D film

[@djcowell91]

I loved the flick and agree with most of your points. Just curious: What's your thought on changing Thor's power set and permanently removing the signature hammer? Seems like a big divergence from the source material. Too big?

[@Penlager]

Spoilers... the movie was freaking amazing!!! So the Thor trilogy ends with a bang? Part 4?

this movie was great, and marvel absolutely killed it this year with their shows/movies. the only people ive met that hated this film were DC fanbois

[@HarpoSpoke]

What a bummer to be a DC fanboy and it's your job to hate a movie like this. That's the saddest thing I can think of.

[@Aleph-Noll]

so true, they hate on it "just cause" i cant wait for JL to come out i wonder that the fanboys will think of it. if its bad they will still say its great, if its good they cant admit that its because of Joss W. because then it validates the marvel films and disqualifies snyder as a filmmaker. these are interesting times we live in haha

[@HarpoSpoke]

Just like Silverknight. That's their job...to hate movies like Thor 3 and say crazy things like "this was Marvel's worst year". That's amazing. Being a fanboy apparently comes with that crappy responsibility to hate everything the "other team" does. It's going to be fascinating to watch them try to find some nitpick "flaws" in Thor 3.

We went to see JL and Thor:Ragnarok this weekend, and my GF said to watch JL first, because if itv tanked, we had something to talk about during dinner before seeing Thor:R. And boy, did it tank. It was total: let's do what Marvel has been doing for over 10 years of build-up, and pot it all in one movie...and than act surprised it doesn't work like that. The first Thor scene is better and spot on than the entire JL movie

[@orlando72az]

Is it just me or in the Hela vs The Valkyries did the blonde Brunhilda version of Valkyrie sacrifice herself in the last scene to save "Angry Girl" valkyrie?

[@sertaki]

Yeah, that's what it looked like. It is also implied that they were lovers and that's why she gave her life for movie Valkyrie.

[@antona.1327]

If there wasn't enough reasons to hate the movie... So Sif is written out, Odin turns into fairy dust in the first act and has jack to do with the story afterwards, Warriors Three are pooped all over, and to close it all off we have the legitimate version of Valkyrie from the comics turn into blink-and-you-miss cameo. Taika Waititi was born to bully fans of Thor's comics.

[@forascalon]

Cate Blanchett's portrayal of Hela reminded me of Frank Langella's run at Skeletor in the 80's Masters of the Universe film (my all time favorite villain performance). Just like Kevin said - she just owned it, and had fun doing it!

[@warrenstewart2608]
