Was it a comedy film or not? And how does that make you feel?

  1. Straight up comedy - I liked the humour

  2. Straight up comedy - I liked the humour but too much

  3. Not a comedy - I liked what we got

  4. Not a comedy - Liked it but still a bit too much

  5. I didn't find the humour funny in general.

    Just seems like (some) people struggle to understand that opinions differ. That films, like any art, is subjective and an opinion is very seldom wrong for its owner...

    So here's mine...
    No, Thor: Ragnarok is not a straight up comedy.
    Yes, I think there was a little too much comedy.

    When I say 'too much', I mean I personally would have toned down only those scenes where I felt it needed or at least would have benefited from a more serious tone - like the first Surtur scene, and the destruction of Asgard. I thought the levity lessened the impact/importance of the event.

    Just to show how subjective it all is, some of the posters who have expressed similar opinions as above, didn't like the Banner splatting on the bridge scene, which I found hilarious.

    So let's not get riled up when someone feels differently to ourselves... If we all agreed it'd get quite boring imo...
    And I've never been scared of being in the minority...

    *you may substitute 'like' with 'love' if that's how you feel :D

    Well..

    Last I checked, people are giddy at the fact that the film is at 93% on RT, which means not everyone liked it with 20 rotten reviews out of 290 total. Subjectively, more then 9 out of 10 critics recommend the film and people objectively believe that's an amazing result.

    It also appears that a large portion of the audience does as well with great WOM and an early second weekend projection of 60 m+ and a lean -49% drop, which is excellent to say the least...

    Feel free to give your opinions, we like what we like, but if anyone could be seen as 'struggling' to accept or understand other's opinions, it would be the guy who feels the need to make a thread on such a point and create a signature such as you have.

    I think it is a straight up comedy with a few serious moments, but it never went into "too much" territory to me.

    We already have a thread on Korg. Discussions should be in that thread.

    So the Korg thread has a poll asking how you felt about the humour in the film?
    My apologies then.

    Not a comedy. Plenty of serious moments that weren't followed by a joke. The comedy that was in it was the perfect amount.
