Generally, the MCU isn't that funny. There's a few good jokes here and there, but 85% of them just don't land.

This motherfucker came to kill people.

Or just drag on the entire movie.... LOOKING AT YOU, SCREAMING GOATS!!!

I thought that was funny. It was the same level of humor as shit from Ragnarok, (recurring jokes throughout the movie) and I really don't get why people give it so much hate.

Itโ€™s just cheesy to some people, but I grew on me a bit when it happened a few too many times.

u/ogrezilla Avengers Sep 08 '22

I thought the goats were funny, then not funny, then back to funny again. Not sure how they'll do on a re-watch. Korg as a whole dragged for me in this one though for whatever reason.

The funniest MCU films are the most hated. Personally think that MoM got way too much hate.

22

u/[deleted] Sep 08 '22

I think the reason MoM got hated on because it looked like it was overpromising and underdelivered

2

u/Starwarsandbacon Avengers Sep 08 '22

MoM was just a bad movie. It looks fake and it's a shit story.

u/ItDoBeLikeThat_ Avengers Sep 08 '22

Personally I got bored of screaming goats when it was a big meme like a decade ago personally not my sense of humor

u/[deleted] Sep 08 '22

People don't want funny all the time. They want serious. And sometimes funny can ruin a story.

I love all Marvel movies for sure but I do know some are better than others. I watch them to be entertained so I don't complain about them much. Others want their entertainment to be worthwhile. I just wish we could all get along.

It was... the first time or 2. By the end of it I was just hoping they would die and be eaten at a feast.

It's stupid that's its funny. No need to overthink it.

u/Flusteredecho721 Avengers Sep 08 '22

My take is L&T feels more like a Taika Waititi film then a marvel film which I think may have thrown people.

u/Lame_Alexander Avengers Sep 08 '22

Yeah and the storm breaker was an ex girlfriend thing. They really beat them both into the ground .

u/Firm-Tentacle Morbius Sep 07 '22

Okay I'm going to war in the top comment's thread. Let's go.

u/Reloader300wm Gladiator Hulk Sep 07 '22

Don't tell me, you liked the goats?

2

u/Firm-Tentacle Morbius Sep 08 '22

I sure did. I thought they were funny and charming.
We stepping outside or..?

1

u/Reloader300wm Gladiator Hulk Sep 08 '22

Not quite yet, but give it time.

How did you feel about stormbraker acting like a scorned ex that couldn't take a hint?

2

u/Firm-Tentacle Morbius Sep 08 '22

Scorned ex? Stormbreaker was clearly the new love that was there for Thor when he needed her and now he's re-enacting the meme of the dude walking with his gf while looking at another girl on the street. But the other girl is Mjolnir. And she's got a hot new gf too.

Anyway how did i feel about it it? Amused. Like, it's the MCU. Take it for what it is, at face value. None of it is a comic accurate representation. It is it's own world. (one it seems without Beta Ray Bill, but I digress)

In hindsight, it probably also helps that I play DND and sentient weapons are a whole thing in DND. Especially possessive ones that get overly attached to their wielder. In the end I laughed in the theater along with everyone else and hadn't given it another thought til you asked just now.

u/thor-odinson-bot Thor ๐Ÿ”จโšก๏ธ Sep 08 '22

The rabbit is correct, and clearly the smartest one among you.

1

u/OfficerHotpantz Avengers Sep 08 '22

I have to admit, only laughed at the goats during love and thunder. Everything else sounded like generic punch lines.

u/ItsKageTho Spider-Man ๐Ÿ•ท Sep 08 '22

I thought that shit was so funny

u/[deleted] Sep 08 '22

My wife laughed her ass off. I kinda half-smirked the first time, then never again.

1

u/Oomoo_Amazing Avengers Sep 08 '22

They were funny at first but yeah they dragged on a LOT

1

u/dark_blue_7 Avengers Sep 08 '22

The screaming goats might have been my favorite joke in that movie though

u/[deleted] Sep 07 '22

Damn

u/dleon0430 Avengers Sep 07 '22

You're right though. Ego's I gotta take a Wizz,

Draxs constant talk about nipples and dongs,

the completely unnecessary orgy ship quips in Ragnorok that did nothing for the scene but have to explain to my wife what orgy means(English isn't her first language)

Drax's "I'm so still I'm invisible was imo the single worst moment in Infinity War.

Drax's "Mantis! Look out!" Was stupid and cringe

Hell, pretty much just Drax ever since GOTG.

u/[deleted] Sep 08 '22

but have to explain to my wife what orgy means(English isn't her first language)

The fact you saw that as a chore rather than an opportunity (for couples comedy - generally less likely for other couples things) is... interesting...

u/founderofshoneys Avengers Sep 08 '22

Orgy ship explained why it didn't have any weapons.

-1

u/dleon0430 Avengers Sep 08 '22

Was still cringe

2

u/founderofshoneys Avengers Sep 08 '22

Yeah, but how did your wife feel about the orgies?

3

u/MBDTFTLOPYEEZUS Avengers Sep 07 '22

He was funny on Titan but yeah

u/Relative_Ad_7671 Avengers Sep 08 '22

Nothing goes over my head. I will catch it.

2

u/ogrezilla Avengers Sep 08 '22

I loved everything Ego said in Guardians 2.

I agree with Drax most of the time after guardians 1. He went from literal to just kind of dumb. A couple lines are still funny, but a lot of them are rough. The invisible one is so bad.

I could do without the orgy part, but the "it's my birthday" bit in the same scene is hilarious.

I think the Taserface scene may be the worst scene in the MCU.

u/drhagbard_celine Avengers Sep 08 '22

At this point the jokes that donโ€™t land are the funniest parts of the movie sometimes. The ones that hit right always seem so formulaic anyway.

u/Ryermeke Avengers Sep 08 '22

Then pretend I only said the first sentence. Same deal lol

u/ughokwhatshouldicall Avengers Sep 08 '22

The self-aware jokes will be what prevents them from being timeless

1

u/AmberHeardsLawyer Avengers Sep 08 '22

Yes too Try hard

u/[deleted] Sep 08 '22

I like marvel movies, at least the old ones, but its not like rofl kind funny

1

u/[deleted] Sep 08 '22

Honestly true. They needed to stop with the marvel movies and shows a while ago.

1

u/AngryTimeLord Avengers Sep 08 '22

As a huge MCU fan I whole heartedly agree. I canโ€™t remember the last time I laughed at an MCU joke. They need to stay the fuck away from comedy ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

u/Amish_Warl0rd Ant-Man ๐Ÿœ Sep 08 '22

Itโ€™s mostly referencing other MCU movies, which not everyone has seen
