If a film director is a comedian, they're acting in their own film, then there's nobody on set to let them know when they need to dial it back.
You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I think the trailers deflated a lot of cool bits.
Did Hela actually even say "Asgard is dead" in the movie? It was in the trailer, but I don't remember it in the movie.

Loki's double knife flip wasn't in there either. Maybe they didn't want to show him being a badass .

That was the other one! I was waiting for that one the whole damn movie.

There wasn't even a location that matched that scene.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Maybe there'll be a director's cut with those scenes in.

The cut scene that I want? Valkyrie is bisexual in the comics and had a scene in the movie confirming it, but it was cut: [link]

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Well that's a bullshit excuse. Managed to work Scourge's sexuality in just fine.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
And the Grandmaster's, despite him not actually having a sexuality in the comics as far as I'm aware. (To be fair, he's outlived the rest of his species by billions of years...)

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
I would like nineteen more movies about Cate Blanchett.
I kept remembering her role in Lord of the Rings, and thinking, "This is what happens when Galadriel doesn't diminish and go into the West". Love her and despair indeed.
