I thought Thor 4 (More Thor) was enjoyable enough while I was watching but had a pretty stupid / nonexistant plot? But on the whole I enjoyed it more than MoM because it was so lightweight and inconsequential and didn't try to tie everything into a Big Marvel THING I'd have to remember and care about for like 15 more movies.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yes! I liked the low stakes!
And GASPED in the credits scene.
I also enjoyed that all of their kids were among the Asgardian kids.

Very comic book-y! In a way I enjoy. Loved the credits and credit scenes. Glad I knew vanishingly little going in.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
A stupid headline spoiled me for the finale of Ms Marvel. What the hell, man, they can’t keep the spoilers out of the headline? The episode dropped 10 hours before I read the headline. Jesus.

Lunchtime watch and post! Will probably be more watching than posting, but I already want to say the first 5 minutes or has already made me happy, and the secret ingredient is always nutmeg! Probably not what was in the headline

Ending was perfect! And post credit (mid credit, whatever) is whoa! On the whole, I think they could have used more than 6 episodes but I'm very pleased

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Agreed, on all counts.
That was some comic-book fun.

That finale was so good I wish the season had been long enough to give all the various subplots more breathing room. The Clandestines and the Red Daggers were both introduced so quickly that I felt a bit of whiplash, and the Damage Control / mosque bits just dropped out of the show completely until the end.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I loved the series. It wasn't perfect but it brought me joy and I'll take that wherever I can get it these days. It was also great to have a superhero story that at its heart was about saving people rather than about punching the bad guy. We need more of those.
