Dinner with friends, had a cold soda with me going in, and the chair was just sublime, with a holder for the bottle, a tray, a recliner, with no one behind me to ruin the space for. What kind of luxury is this? Was not like this when I went to movies as a kid.
Love this. A super comfy theatre situation needs to be the standard. People are constantly talking about how cinemas are doomed, but a comfy experience would go a long way to getting people in. It doesn't need to be a recliner but, you know what I mean. It's hard to sit in one place for two hours as it is, make sure I'm super comfy

I'm glad you had a nice comfy chair to sit in while you watched one of the worst movies ever made

I thought I would see this with my sister who used to be a big marvel fan and loves Ragnarok, but she's not interested.

She skipped Eternals and Shang chi and then was very underwhelmed by Dr Strange and now it seems like she's fully done with Marvel movies

End of an era.

When it arrives on Disney+, I'll watch it with my wife at home. Probably while our kid is still awake. That will be a very different experience. Will see how it holds up then, but I was entertained yesterday, which was the most important thing.

You entertainment is not the most important thing! Did you learn something? Were you inspired to be a better person? Did you learn something about what it is to be a human being?

I feel like I'd find the goats funny though. I dunno. Maybe not.

I am something of a Waititi apologist, but this does not sound good at all.

I've had serious doubts about Waititi since that Pirate show. I could barely get through the first 5 minutes of that.

What did you find funny? For me this was more of a comedy, than an action or a drama.

It’s defo a comedy and the funniest marvel movie. Plenty of laughs as you say. Korg was hilarious. Zeus was gold. Valkyrie as always. Melissa McCarthy as hela.

It’s a laugh a minute.

I just didn’t find the goats funny.

Yes I love comedies that open with a scene of a child dying of thirst in a desert

Another big, tired, Marvel movie. Waititi´s comedy is so fucking boring and tired, it really hurts. Also, these movies look so awful, man wtf are they doing? the photography is just plain awful.

I dont understand why in the hell you wanna mess with Mighty Thor with Jane and then tossed it aside for nothing.

I liked Bale a lot.

Agree, it is easily the ugliest Marvel movie so far

I haven't seen L&T yet. But I've loved every TW film I've seen (What We Do In The Shadows, Ragnarok, JoJo Rabbit). And the ep of Mandalorian he directed was one of the strongest of the first season. So, we'll see. Though, to be honest, I don't have a ton of excitement for his Star War. I need to wait and see a trailer. But I think there's a better than 50% chance it ain't happening at all.

I've seen Hunt for the Wilderpeople (liked), What We Do in the Shadows (loved), Jojo Rabbit (hated), Ragnarok (hated), and now Love & Thunder (his worst yet). He also had the worst performance of 2021 with his role in Free Guy. Not a fan
