i said this about ragnarok and it looks like i'll be saying it again... it's TOO funny. don't get me wrong, i love that hemsworth is able to show off his comedic chops, and there's a lot of stuff in the outer space side of marvel that is so bizarre that you just can't take it seriously so you HAVE to lean into the absurdist comedy of it all... but there was a ton of heavy dramatic moments in ragnarok that were immediately undercut by taika's neurotic need to have a joke every 20 seconds. i'm expecting the same thing with Gorr: a character that has NOTHING funny about him but all that tragedy and misery will just get lost.
with ragnarok, i feel like they could have taken out 1/3 of the jokes and it would have made for a better movie. it wouldn't be comedy overload and it would allow the serious bits to linger long enough to be impactful
