#ThorRagnarok is a ton of fun! Self-contained MCU plot, but character work is awesome, and the adventure a thrill. Best of the Thor movies!

Btw, #ThorRagnarok is solid MCU fun. Great music, Blanchett is awesome, looks/feels like an 80's video game. Slight, but wholly entertaining

Thor: Ragnarok is just plain fun. It's hilarious from start to finish with quirky performances & exciting action. Tessa Thompson is the MVP.

Loved ‘Thor: Ragnarok'. @TaikaWaititi did an awesome job. Movie is loaded with his trademark humor. Laughed beginning to end.

‘Thor: Ragnarok' music/soundtrack is fantastic. And some of the visuals are insane. Seeing again as soon as I can. Another @marvel winner.

Thor Ragnarok is one of the funniest Marvel Studio movies thus far, definitely the best Thor film. Loved Mark Mothersbaugh's score.

Jokes and characters are front and center to the action & drama. This will be the thing people will either love, or dislike, about the film.

#ThorRagnarok ⚡️ABSOLUTELY ROCKS! I was totally blown away by the story, action, effects, performances, & one of Marvel's best soundtracks!

https://twitter.com/djkevlar/status/917246984221626368

THOR RAGNAROK is hilarious & weird & offbeat & retro & sublime. Love how Marvel let Taika Waititi make a movie that's Waititi-ish as hell.

#ThorRagnarok is SO much fun I almost can't take it. The best: Thor movie, Cate Blanchett scene stealing, Jeff Goldblum Goldblum-ing.

Well impressive. Just hope Thor: TDWs reception doesnt discourage people from checking Ragnarok out.

And people were saying this film was going to be trash.

Never bet against Taika Waititi!

Feels like I've been waiting forever for more Hulk. Can't wait.

Cant wait for the inevitable complaints about too much jokes.

Pretty much. Still my second most anticipated movie this winter (first is Disaster Artist).

antispin · Oct 9, 2017

If they truly let Waititi do his thing, this should be a blast.

Excuse me? Your post seems to imply that Thor TDW had a negative reception. Its one of the best superhero movies

MMarston · Oct 9, 2017

yeah but what does petyr feel about it

Fuu · Oct 9, 2017

Looking forward to this!

Shame there wasnt an early reactions thread for Thor 2 for us to compare.

GravityInsanity · Oct 9, 2017

It seems like the soundtrack is going to be one to remember. Can't wait.

7Th · Oct 9, 2017

Aren't actual reviews dropping next week?

MadLaughter · Oct 9, 2017

And for the record, these are critics.

Pro tip: Add "filter:verified" when searching terms on twitter to only see tweets from verified accounts. Weeds out a lot of the trash.

Right now, searching "Thor filter:verified" or doing the same with "#thorragnarak filter:verified" seems like the best way to see these results for yourself.

hydruxo · Oct 9, 2017

Was there ever any doubt? Waititi can do no wrong

TraBuch · Oct 9, 2017

What does look like an 80s game mean?

Zen Aku · Oct 9, 2017

I'm going to keep my expectation as low as possible to avoid any disappointment. *Shove hype back down*

Go play Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon and get back to me. You'll see what I mean.

I can't believe it. Those influencers and enthusiast press are usually very shy with praise.

These are critics reactions. Their full reviews come next week.

zeemumu · Oct 9, 2017

I watched a 3D preview of it that they had up in California Adventure. It was...interesting. I need more space Goldblum.

"Were you just waiting this whole time to call her trash? That doesn't even start with a b."

not surprised that its good

Finaj · Oct 9, 2017

While I'm sure it'll be great, I'm really itching for a Marvel film that prioritizes the drama over comedy. Hopefully Black Panther and/or Infinity War will fit the bill.

You're buying into that Gaf TDW hate.

It's in the lower end when it comes to Marvel movies but it's not the horrible movie movie threads on Gaf would lead you to believe.

kurahador · Oct 9, 2017

Hope we get to see Thor/Hulk dancing.

Call me when critics go nuts for a Zack Snyder film.

Fancyarcher · Oct 9, 2017

Love the reactions so far. I'm a big Marvel fan, so it should be great, and easily the best Thor movie. I also like how Thompson is being singled out. Valkyrie was always gonna be a tough role to pull off.

It won't. I wouldn't worry anyway.

No. Did you not see him in the Age of Ultron flashes?

Praise Feige.

Ominym · Oct 9, 2017

I'm honestly most surprised to see people complementing the score. Marvel movies usually have fine but very forgettable scores so here's hope this changes things.

Mark Mothersbaugh is a genius so I'm not suprised it's getting praised.

To be fair, critics are usually a bad parameter when it comes to what makes film music, since they hardly notice it.

SoulUnison · Oct 9, 2017

The "music" and "70s/80s" angles is making this feel a lot like Marvels stretching out the Guardians of the Galaxy formula - or is that just the aesthetic they've assigned to "off-Earth/in space" movies?

Cosmic Marvel is a much better place than Earth Marvel.

ZeoVGM · Oct 9, 2017

As if there was any doubt.

Can't wait.
