  5. He did a bad job and I don’t see how you can move forward with Thor in this state. Just getting from the end of that film to even a basic level film is going to a hard task. It’s hard to make the clown a king after he’s worn the clothes.

  6. Did he even want to do LaT? I feel like the same level of effort just wasn’t there as it was with Ragnorok

  7. How tf out of all the marvel heroes did Thor come out of the trinity rule? Everyone else got 3 movies and Thor for some reason is getting a fifth?

  9. He should stick to things like Our Flag Means Death… that show was hilarious

  10. Taika needs to take a break, I think he’s trying to push out so much stuff these days that it’s really taking away from the quality of what he is capable of.

  13. I too am happy by that idea. Actually ecstatic is a better word.

  14. Prayers: Answered.

    No offense to Taika either… he did what he could do and regardless whether or not we enjoyed it, the MCU needs some new artistic blood. Slapping the Waititi-Gunn formula to everything is not the answer.

  15. Good. Go take a break and return to making good and funny movies instead of partying around with big stars and churning out…whatever Love and Thunder was.

  16. The entire MCU should scale down and be on hiatus. Plus the early Thor films showed how bad the MCU always was but we ignored it because Avengers.

  17. I’m not against this. I absolutely despised what he did with Thor’s character in Love & Thunder.

  18. I feel like Taika needs to stop trying to write, direct, and act.

    Clearly he took on too much with Thor 4.

    Whoever decided Gorr was going to stop butchering gods off screen and just kidnap children shouldn’t write movies anymore though.

  19. I can’t give Love and Thunder a fair shake because I went into it unaware of Jane’s story in it

    AND I HAVE FUCKING STAGE IV CANCER MYSELF

    So I did laugh at parts of it, got annoyed by the goats, but, fuck, the end has had me fucked up for days.

  21. Crazy how Ragnarok ride the line perfectly (for most fans) and love and thunder was so horrible.

  23. He makes it sound like they’re romantically involved.

    “If Marvel wants to see other people…” XD

  25. I’m happy with that too. Thor 4 was awful and I like Waititi. Maybe it’s better that he and Thor part ways.

  26. I think we’re all collectively kind of over Taika.

  27. James Gunn and Taika Waititi are very prominent reasons why Marvel fatigue is real. Their work has been like sugar, great at first but you get sick of it real quick. God, I was tired of ant man before the first movie was even over

    The biggest problem is that these films don’t tKs themselves seriously at all. Which is fine, even welcomed, when you have a backdrop of Thor 2, winter solider, avengers, etc which took themselves a little too seriously. But eventually if you consistently don’t take yourself seriously (AT ALL)….there becomes a point when you’re like “wait…why should I care again? Oh I don’t”

    There’s a healthy medium that is very hard for Hollywood execs to grasp because they’re all focused on momentum and what worked last time. But just because a silly movie is well received doesn’t mean audiences don’t want more serious movies at all. You can have in the marvel universe individual franchises which are more grounded and serious and others which aren’t. One silly Thor is great for character growth, 2 and you turn the ip back into the joke it was before the avengers started. Stupid and shortsighted thinking
