Marvel Studios is taking a gamble by making Thor: Ragnarok a comedy, perhaps betting on the fact that James Gunn’s comical Guardians of the Galaxy movies were a success.
Per the norm, some fans seem to be loving it, but others tend to hate on it.
Me, I’m leaning more toward the latter as it seems to be taking another Marvel Studios goofy approach to the comic book stories as well as Marvel COSMIC.
I’m willing to wait and see, but while we do wait, IGN released a funny video featuring Thor: Raganarok director Taika Waititi responding to fan comments.
Watch below! Be sure to stick around until the last question; Taika Waitit’s response is hilarious.
Thor: Raganarok has a November 3, 2017 release directed by Taika Waititi starring Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Mark Ruffalo as Hulk/Banner, Tom Hiddleston as Loki, Idris Elba as Heimdall, Cate Blanchett as Hela, Tessa Thompson as Valkyrie, Jeff Goldblum as Grandmaster, Anthony Hopkins as Odin and Sam Neill in an unknown role.
Thor’s world is about to explode in Marvel’s Thor: Ragnarok. His devious brother, Loki, has taken over Asgard, the powerful Hela has emerged to steal the throne for herself and Thor is imprisoned on the other side of the universe. To escape captivity and save his home from imminent destruction, Thor must first win a deadly alien contest by defeating his former ally and fellow Avengers… The Incredible Hulk!
