[ Ragnarok ] was such a honest moving-picture show . I ’m actually so thankful that Thor found Taika because Taika is the most wiz set for Thor of all fourth dimension . It ’s amazing . Thor : Ragnarok is one of the good Marvel pic of all clock time , it ’s so good . That picture show is pure joy , and so well run … It ’s not gon na count [ if you ’re not into superhero film ] . Taika is a great film maker , and he just made a great moving picture .
That Jenkins would enjoyRagnarokso much is particularly fun since she almost directedThe Dark World . She was attached to the project for a fourth dimension before Taylor , but subsequently step away . Jenkins explained that she leftThe Dark Worldbecause she did not wish to be pick for its failure . Nevertheless , she still seems to be grateful for the almost - chance , as she say on the podcast , " And to Marvel ’s credit , [ they hired me ] on a pic that did not take a adult female at all , so I ’ve always been extremely grateful to them even though it did n’t work on out . " While it might have been interesting to see Jenkins ' take onThe Dark World , it ’s understandable why she turned it down .

Ragnarokis widely debate the best Thor movie and one of the best MCU projection overall . This is for the most part because of its side - break up humor , incredible supporting characters , and how it reframes Thor ’s character . Waititi will be back forThor : Love and Thunder , the first fourth dimension an MCU Heron will get a quaternary solo adventure . Hopefully , he ’ll take the same vim to that one , particularly since it will boast the fan favorite storyline that seesJane Foster ( Natalie Portman)become the Mighty Thor . Waititi has quite the track platter when it comes to his films , so outlook are for sure high . It ’s just a disgrace it ’s still well over a year away .
