It looks awesome, but yeah, my first thought was that it reminded me of Flash Gordon a bit. Kind of campy. Still looks great, but I'm hoping the campiness is mostly the way the trailer was put together. [Reply]

Taika Waititi was hired to bring levity to an otherwise droll and dark world, so I think the trailer is probably a fairly accurate representation. I just hope it's not too tongue-in-cheek.
For me, Ant-Man had a nice balance of action and comedy. Hopefully, Marvel has finally gotten a Thor movie "right". [Reply]
They are clearly inspired by the Guardians vibe, but it's definitely the right direction to take the Thor franchise. The last one was too serious. [Reply]

Burton's Batman is NOTING like Batman v. Superman or any number of these bombastic and LOUD super hero films.
Funny...Each Marvel movie I go to (outside of Deadpool) there are kids everywhere, parents etc. Ages ranging from 6-teens. I'm not debating whether one movie is louder than the other, I just don't think that's a reason parents would keep their kids home from seeing these movies in a theatre. The kids friends see it, kids beg mom and dad to see it. Toys help push the market drive for the movie. Shirts, backpacks, lunchboxes etc.
And you think these parents are going to wait til it comes out on bluray because the movies are just too loud? :-). [Reply]

You're a fucking moron.
There are many kids that can't handle seeing movies in state of the art movie theaters because of sensory overload, boys and girls.
And if you think that taking young children to see a movie like Wonder Woman, in which graphic WWI violence is shown, good luck parenting.
1) This is a Thor movie borrowing heavily off of "Flash Gordon" from the 80's and not off of GOTG. Watch both clips and then watch the Ragnarok trailers again.
2) This is essentially HULK 2.5. Marvel can include Hulk as an extra all they want so they're jamming as much HULK in here as they can. It also appears from the released and leaked footage that the longer Hulk is Hulk the more Banner bleeds through. And many have hinted to a "much different Hulk" starting with this film.
Basically less CGI vs. Ruffalo and more Ruffalo/Banner in the Hulk.
3) An inclusion (to some degree) of the Unworthy Thor storyline (perhaps my favorite an all of Thor's comix run.) [Reply]
