Thor Ragnarok: 7.5/10
Very fun. Lots of great jokes and new characters. Action was pretty cool. Although Loki felt a bit bland in this outing (and in Dark World, come to think of it). I think I’d still give the edge to the first Thor because I LOVED the character interaction between Thor, Loki and Odin. Loki was magnificent in the first Thor.
The Shape of Water: 6.5/10
Eh. It was ok. I admired the attempt at an “original” story, but I just didn’t find myself that engrossed in the characters. *shrug*
Justice League: 6/10
Kinda disappointing. I actually liked MOS and BvS despite some questionable character behavior so I was hoping this one would fit in with those. JL was just overall very bland. It seems that Whedon re-did everything with Super (as evidenced by the ‘stache), plus much more than was reported. The jokes and lighthearted approach was ok I guess, but it was like “lite” Whedon, almost like someone else was trying to do a Whedon-esque movie, but came up short. And I *like* Whedon, too. Such a shame. I would love to see Zach’s cut someday. At the very least Zach's version would look better.
Edit: oh, yeah, the soundtrack was terrible. Disappointed to find it was Elfman. Zimmer's ST were great for MOS and BvS.
