I didn't read the thread, but I don't like when immortals get in relationships with mortals. Their lifespan is a blip on yours but the blip is even smaller when you appear the same age. Just mean and disingenuous if you think about it. At least Ego knew he was lying when he said he cared about those girls.

I have a few problems with the way the MCU treats "immortal" or otherwise really old characters. Thor and Loki have literally been alive for a thousand years but so much of their character development happens in the last decade? That's like 50 year olds going from college kids to full fledged maturity in a few months. It's a little silly.

in Thor's case, look at how old Odin is. Even Odin matured as he grew older. He went from a war monger to a more benevolent king. Perhaps Asgardians take time to mature. You also have Thor and Loki who are more or less spoiled rich kids that finally have to go out on their own and face the world. Yes, Thor has been a warrior most of his life, but the foes he has gone against before 2008 had probably posed little threat to him, the main big bads of Asgardian lore were all defeated by his grandfather, Odin, and Hela.

Also, in the Marvel comics universe, character development is the main reason Thor was sent down to Earth.

Finally got around to seeing this movie, I had avoided all discourse on it after the trailers initially put me off the movie.

Thought this movie was actually decent, figured I should see it just in case it somehow plays into the next phase of Marvel movies.
Someone else said it, but I think this movie would have been received better as a stand alone story.
AND also then been split in 2 after the Tenochtitlan segment (maybe show us that they all split up and some of them just decide to live with humans and whatnot
