Rules: explain why
Ready player one.
That has to be one of the cringiest movies I’ve seen, is tries so hard, too hard with it’s “WE LOVE YOU NERD, YOU’RE SO COOL FOR PLAYING GAMES AND GETTING THIS 80S REFERENCE” message and the whole “corporation bad, the people good” narrative seems written for toddlers… The fan service feels cheap and adds nothing to the story.
Finally, they trying to make the people believe that very attractive girl with a barely visible red tint spot on her face is “ugly”… Like wtf?
Yet it received decent reviews plus being one of the most successful movies of that year.
It’s funny, I’m another who knows nothing about Marvel except what the movies had, and I loved the Thor movies the most because of the lore building LOL. But then I’ve said I get tired of later Captain American movies because "Things are too realistic and down to Earth, if there’s superheroes I want things to get WEIRD.
But I want to say, as much as I love the other two Thor movies, I agree with you, Ragnarok is the best one. It did a fantastic job of building quite a lot of lore while being absolutely hilariously entertaining. But if you like Guardians of the Galaxy, I suggest you look up the TV show Farscape. When GotG was advertised I told my friends “I’ve always wanted to see Farscape on the big screen” so you might like it.
