Thor: Ragnarok

I went into Thor: Ragnarok thinking that it couldn't possibly be as good as everyone has been saying it is, and it wasn't. It was better.

Tessa Thompson gets a sword!

Idris Elba gets a sword!

Chris Hemsworth gets two swords!

Cate Blanchett gets ALL THE SWORDS!!

I still don't understand why everyone loves Tom Hiddleston so much, but he gets some swords too.

I chuckled when I recognized Matt Damon. He's got a very good cameo.

I literally laughed out loud when Jeff Goldblum came onscreen. Jeff Goldblum is perfect.

I may have wet myself a little when I realized that Taika Waititi himself is voicing one of the characters. Taika Waititi is better than perfect.

I have seen some good movies in 2017, but this was definitely the best of the lot.

Right?!!! I may have seen it twice this week and may be thinking about going again.

Tom Hiddleston, I didn't get it until I actually saw him as Loki (and then had an immediate epiphany). Idk. I think he has that Benedict Cumberbatch thing going for him where he's not actually conventionally good-looking but can be absolutely beautiful from the right angle... but Cumberbatch tends to play glorified male genius douchebags who piss me off too much to properly enjoy how gorgeous he is, whereas Hiddleston as Loki is just so much *fun*.
