ooh I’ve been waiting to read it until it’s all finished, so I am excited to finally get on it

Ragnarok is the film that Thor has long deserved.

I loved the whole aesthetic of it. I loved the soundtrack. There were some very funny moments (the hammer joke with Korg had the cinema all laughing, and one kid asking his dad what it meant. He had to say that he’s understand when he was older!), and some very poignant ones as well (I may have teared up a little). I liked how they changed Hela’s backstory, it worked in the MCU canon. Hulk/Banner actually worked well in the film. I was a bit concerned about his inclusion, but it definitely still felt like Thor’s film. In fact, it felt more like Thor’s film than his others have. I liked all the little nods to the myths as well with Surtur and Fenris etc

Cate Blanchett looked like she was having an awesome time, as did Jeff Goldblum. Tessa Thompson was badass. All the supporting players were really good (TW3 aside. but you have to see that for yourselves).

And I liked Loki’s arc too.

All in all, I would say it’s my favourite of the 3 solo Thor films, and it sets up some things for Infinity War.

I can't get it until after my exams in June, because I know if I get it now I will not do revision :(

It'll be a lovely reward then :) I've got 1+ week before I go back to my office job so I'm trying to enjoy the free time and I can't think of a better way to do it than hanging out with Nate, Elena and Sully!

I'm too poor to invest in games/consoles, so I'm watching theRadBrad play it on youtube!. He just started today!

This game fucked me up completely! I love it, but I also kinda hate it. It's awesome and you really get into it, like really involved in her life and ugh. It's so good! Have fun playing it, dear! :3

I've played through the first two episodes and I think it's safe to say I'm hooked. I love the mundane setting and how real it feels and I also like the characters, though I feel anxious every time I have to hang out with Chloe. I wish she'd put that damn gun away >__<

I won't get to see it very soon and I don't mind spoilers. I already know what to expect, but that won't deter me. I'll be able to focus on detail, of which this movie is so packed! Can't wait! You lucky one! <3

I was spoiled for one key moment from the very end, but that didn't take away from my overall enjoyment of the film. It's such a gorgeous looking movie and Tom hasn't looked this good since his Thor 1 days *__*

Yay, sounds like you enjoyed it! I'm seeing it on Monday myself - I think it's the first time in a loooong while that I'll be seeing a regular 2D movie. I'm looking forward to that :D

Yeah it was refreshing to watch a movie without those heavy 3D glasses. Plus Crimson Peak would be terrible in 3D because the movie is so dark and post-production 3D often makes the image even darker. Lemme know what you think of it when you see it!

YESSSSSS I feel exactly the same way about wanting to watch it again just for all the detail!

I actually just found out that the guy who did the set design for Bram Stocker's Dracula also designed the sets for Crimson Peak, so no wonder I was reminded of Dracula! The movie is such a gorgeous mix of grotesque and delicate. And it's not just the manor that's done well, I also liked all the Buffalo stuff and really felt like I'd gone back to the late 19th century.

I'm signed off work sick (going on nearly a month) so can't see this yet & I'm devastated, not worth the risk of being seen out plus I couldn't sit through it without coughing fits because of my chest infection. I'm looking forward to it though

i thought that everything in the original movie was good but then snow white (the character, kstew, the storyline surrounding her, everything about her basically) just ruined it -__- everything else was really stunning and interesting though!

My favorite thing about the first movie were the costumes and Charlize’s super hammy performance :) The villain was always more interesting in the original Snow White story, so I really liked the Queen’s backstory in SwatH. Snow White was a really bland character in the fairy tale and I don’t understand how the screenwriters didn’t really manage to bring any life to her. I think they were more interested in Ravenna and Eric.

But I really liked some of the darker elements and what little worldbuilding the movie did, but it just made me want more Ravenna and her creepy brother and more Eric, and I wished the movie had been even darker and it felt like there was a lot of lost potential because they had to keep it safe enough for a PG13 rating and they also shoved in some ridiculous fairy tale visuals that felt like they belonged in another movie.

I also didn’t understand why they had to try force some kind of hinted romance between Snow White and Eric the Huntsman when a) she should have picked the prince and childhood friend is she was gonna pick someone and b) the Huntsman was still mourning his wife and was obviously much older than Snow White, though the wiki claims the character is supposed to be 20, which I just don’t buy.

I like to have thoughts of Chris and Jessica swapping stories about how ridiculous Tom is

Is it bad that I’m at the point of reading it and picturing Chris and Tom/Thor and Loki as Damen and Laurent? It really is a story that stays with you as well

it’s one of the things I worry about too with it. I hate not knowing the release date yet, I know she said on twitter she’ll announce it when she knows, but waiting is hard.
