Per Hammerdown's request I am creating this thread as we should be starting to receive some stuff very soon.

Once again thank you Surfer.
This thread is going to start building up a lot of movement very soon. For now i'll give my prediction for the RT rating. I think it could be very well received and i am optimistically aiming for around 90%...

Yeah no problem. You do so much to bring us Thor Ragnarok information, photos, promotions, videos and other stuff, if I can help you a little by opening a couple threads, I am happy to do it. Thanks for all you do.

Do you think ColliderFrosty and Jon Schnepp were talking about Ragnarok on twitter when they referred to watching something super embargoed? Because Schnepp said that whatever he watched was "So good, I think could be the best"

 

[Surfer]

I am thinking the Rotten Tomatoes score will be in the 90's, but it really depends on if the story holds up. The trailer's definitely make it feel like a movie that is going to be extremely enjoyable and make many Fans especially happy.

I have been thinking about that all along every since i saw that tweet. Schnepp is a massive fan of TR and he has been extremely hyped for the movie for a long time. I could see Frosty giving him a taste of what's to come.

If it's true that the social media embargo lifts today then it's possible some people have already watched it. And then again what is really of interest for Schnepp that is "super embargoed"... i think it could very well be TR.

Schnepp, as much as I respect his views, tends to overhype comic book movies.

I would trust Frosty's objectivity more, but generally speaking I don't put much faith on social media reactions because they are not full reviews.

 

[HammerDown]

I like social media reactions because it's the very first taste we get of how people feel about the movie. For sure it's not definitive but it's well worth looking at what people thought and how they felt about a certain movie without going into much detail. For that we have the reviews on the 19th and that will paint a much broader image of how the movie turned out.

Still very excited for the first impressions.

For a film like this I really only need some short opinions on the overall quality. I know I'm going to see this and actual reviews always come with a risk of saying slightly too much, even if it's no outright spoilers. I'm already past the point of having seen and read too much than what's optimal, just because I can't help myself. t:

This is the most reassuring tweet of the night. Scott Mendelson loving an MCU movie is definitely something to write home about t:

 

[scarlet-witch]

^Was just going to post that! Can't wait.

 

[epicfurball]

A little concerned about the guy who said a lot of people in his screening weren't into it. Haven't seen any of them on twitter yet, so I don't know what to believe yet.

 

[scarlet-witch]

I did find one negative one:

Mikaela Farahmand?
@FarahmandChick
#ThorRagnarok was not good. Hemsworth’s performance was strong and probably the best thing about it. Worst part was script.
