Yep, those are the Power Stone, the Time Stone, the Mind Stone, the Space Stone, and the Reality Stone, respectively. All that's missing is the Soul Stone.

I'm guessing the one in the Eye is the Time Stone, since Strange can roll back time with it.

I think Loki grabbed the Tesseract, so that they don't have to have a whole "searching the remnants of Asgard for the thing" sequence.

I'm suddenly wondering if Steve's going to have some sort of tie to the Soul Stone, though I'm still annoyed at him.

Connie, I agree -- I think we were supposed to assume that Loki grabbed the Tesseract on the way out of Asgard.

My current rankings, which change often:

• Captain America: Civil War
• The Avengers
• Captain America: The Winter Soldier
• Guardians of the Galaxy
• Iron Man
• Thor: Ragnarok
• Spider-Man: Homecoming
• Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2
• Ant-Man
• Captain America: The First Avenger
• Iron Man 3
• Doctor Strange
• Avengers: Age of Ultron
• The Incredible Hulk
• Thor
• Iron Man 2
• Thor: The Dark World

But really, 1-4 and 5-8 are all pretty much interchangeable with each other.

I super loved Ragnarok. It was hilarious, and had some innovative action scenes, and the emotional beats were there. Tessa Thompson was fantastic, and I'm so thrilled that black girls get such a great cosplay of their own (of course, Black Panther is going to offer an embarrassment of badass black women, which will be even better). I agree that Banner felt just a hair off, which I was trying to handwave because who wouldn't be confused after a couple of years as the Hulk ? I enjoyed Goldblum's performance and the whole 80's video game/pro wrestler aesthetic of that world.

Quibbles: I'd like to see more heroines with a powerful stride (à la Holtzman in Ghostbusters) and less of a sexy model strut as Héla and Valkyrie did here.

I can also pinpoint the exact moment when I tired of Waititi's character, which was fortunately about ten minutes from the end of the movie. It's interesting to read about how that style of humor is firmly rooted in Kiwi and specifically Maori culture, but it doesn't make me like it any more. Unsurprisingly, I did not enjoy "What We Do in the Shadows."

Overall,,minor objections and I can't wait to see it again. The Thor series definitely needed some lightening up, and this served nicely.

I can also pinpoint the exact moment when I tired of Waititi's character, which was fortunately about ten minutes from the end of the movie.

Was it when he repeated his "we have a spaceship, wanna come?" invitation to the fleeing Asgardians? Because that was my enough already, you have a climactic fight to direct! moment with the character.

No, it was when they were leaving on said ship and he was giving the speech about Asgard's foundations because it was so clearly telegraphed what was going to happen . And the the bit with Meek being dead was just gross .

IMHO, YWaititiMV.

I agree. It was very disconcerting and cartoony.

I enjoyed Goldblum's performance and the whole 80's video game/pro wrestler aesthetic of that world.

I swear Goldblum at one point had just gone to the director and said "So this scene, love it, just one thing: can you make sure that every time the camera comes back to me I'm doing something weirder. No, I'm open to suggestions, just - weirder."

I loved Korg, but agree about that foundations crack. (So to speak.) It was too obvious a joke, and I'm not sure Korg would've been in for the lofty inspirational speech in the first place.

Yeah, the bits I had problems with were those bits, where it was really obvious where the joke would land.

I thought the bit with his dead friend was hilarious, though.
