On the Jane topic, I could tolerate her way more than Darcy.

As far as the Thor narrative goes, it's a bit of a bummer Jane won't be in Thor 3 due to her character being prominent in the previous two films, but I'm sure we'll get some line from Thor saying Jane decided to end the relationship. Alot of Jane-detractors will be happy, so there's that.

It was the ultimate long-distance relationship.  Those things rarely work out.
Johnny Gobs got ripped and took a walk off a roof, alright? No big loss.


Eh. It's comics. Anything can be worked out, just not with actors. Shame though, with Jane arguably being more prominent now than she ever has been in the past in Marvel Comics, her exclusion in Thor 3 is definitely not going to go unnoticed. Especially by those who ONLY know Thor thru the Marvel films. Figured they would pull a Ruffalo and just re-cast? *shrugs*

It's rather predictable Natalie Portman would drop out, she was visibly unhappy with the production of the last film. Same about Kat Dennings, her character brought some much needed comic relief. I wonder how much of this film will be spent on earth? I've found in the Thor films the Aasgard scenes have been under whelming while the Earth scenes have redeemed them.

Planet Hulk armour! I'm now officially hyped for this movie.





I still haven't seen the second movie, and I forget most of the first.

A while ago, it was rumoured that Ragnarok would feature "the darkest script by Marvel to date".

But now, Tom Hiddleston says that it will feature the "funniest depiction of Thor to date".

I've been burned out by the MCU's attempts at humour lately. Civil War had its share of forced humour that really didn't match the mostly serious tone. The airport scene was amusing the first time, but it got tiresome the second time I watched it again. Doctor Strange was better at it, but I'm hoping come Infinity War, the attempts at humour don't sour the experience. I never thought I'd say it, but I fear Marvel is becoming very complacent here, as well as many areas i.e. copy and paste Iron Man-style origin story templates for other characters.

Jonathan Nolan: ...the first two.

Marvel can do whatever they want. It's of no consequence to me. I don't watch their movies anymore and haven't for a while.

Here are some photos from Entertainment Weekly.
