The Thor: Ragnarok Rotten Tomatoes/Critic's Reaction Thread

[InCali]

It's at 115 out of 120. Add 5 more fresh reviews and it's at a "true" 96%. Certainly not out of the question. That's also getting us very close to the halfway point.

Had to manually sift through the "All Critics" section where the score would be given right next to the review. Took me around 15 minutes.

We appreciate you bud.

 

[InCali]

Oh I knew you were agreeing, I was just expounding on my previous point lol

Very impressive how many positive reviews keep getting added.

I knew that you knew that....t:

Finarfiniel is cracking me up. Every time someone posts a pic or vid of Cate, he goes into a deep swoon. t: He's got his Cate Blanchett related name (Finarfiniel) and everything. A true believer.

97% is a long way off, but if it can get eight more fresh reviews (128), a rotten after that, and it will still stay at 96%.

I never asked specifically, but I don't think so.

I think someone said it was 70 out of 71. If so, after that, it's been 45 out of 49 or just a little over 1 to 11 (11 out of 12). Definitely not out of the question.

The non-spoiler review the user put up mentioned trying not to veer into fangirling.

And she posts from a girl's perspective.

Too late. LOL.

Very good then. A female Tolkien nut. I like that. "She" swoons. t: Still cracks me up.

Cali dude, I'm disappointed in you, as a fellow Tolkien devotee. Surely you must realise that my username means 'daughter of Finarfin'... I'm pretty sure I've told you that before. The Tolkienverse, and especially Galadriel, is my original and one true love. My swooning love for all things Cate Blanchett originally grew from my love of all things Galadriel, but then developed into it's uh... own thing.

I thought Finarfiniel was a girl lol.

Hang on...

*checks*

Yep, still a girl. t:

And she posts from a girl's perspective.

I do?? Well, good. You guys need a steady female presence and perspective over here to keep you all in line.

Mae Govannen Finarfiniel! Yes, I knew that. I also know that sometimes user names can be misleading. In any case, I think we've cleared this issue up as long as you aren't going all Aunt Petunia on us.

We still friends?

EDIT: And I'm pretty sure I was the one who first commented on your name and told you how clever I thought it was.

Well 6 more have just been at it, guess where at a "true" 96% now.

If I'm not wrong, according to my calculations, the average rating has dropped to a 7.597.

"Enormously entertaining. Witty, funny, delightfully campy, and irreverent. A great time at the movies."

"Every character steals the movie"

I like that!

It's completely true. The characters are what really makes this movie special. The humor is great, the action is cool, the music is awesome... but the character work from Taika and their interactions really elevate the hole thing.

I never had any doubt. t:

And it's cool that a fair bunch of Thor fans are LotR fans I've noticed. Common love of mythic type stories I guess (along with great brains ).
