Despite not personally enjoying the first two Thor movies (very low on the Marvel quality scale) Thor Ragnarok was delicious and Taiki Waititi returns for another round as writer/director. He's been the right voice for taking Thor seriously by way of not taking the Norse God seriously. Review coming on Tuesday July 5th when the embargo breaks. The movie opens in theaters on Friday, July 8th.

How would you rank the Thor franchise within the overal franchises within the MCU? We'd go something like so...

 

  1. Captain America (4 films)
  2. The Avengers (4 films)
  3. Iron Man (3 films)
  4. Spider-Man (3 films)
  5. Ant Man (2 films)
  6. Doctor Strange (2 films)
  7. Guardians of the Galaxy (2 films)
  8. Thor (3 films) will it move up after 4?

 

Crazy to realize how many characters are still waiting on a second feature since it seems like there have been more than 28 films. And given that they're now filling in with tv series, it seems less likely that all that many haracters will get multiple solo films now.
