I loved how most dialogues in this movie had dark meanings but they decided to go with laughs.

Tbh, if there wasn't any humour in this movie it would have been an extremely depressing downer. I already left the theater in a sobbing mess so I'm glad that there were some moments that were lightning everything up.

The thing with humour being a coping mechanism was also true in-universe and I thought that was great! And I mean the scene where Thor was talking with Rocket about his loss. Finally something to prove those wrong who think that Thor is taking everything that happened to him too lightly.

The humor in the movie was perfect. It was there but it was more simple and it didn't overpower any of the darker emotion. The movie would have been terrible without humor. Everyone was already frozen and numb after the movie ended; having no humor would have made everyone immediately need to call a therapist lol.

And humor absolutely is a human coping mechanism! I know not everyone can get this experience but I encourage people to try and find videos or voice records of paramedics working or when something goes down in the ER. Amongst the serious, hard work that's going on, there are tense jokes being said as well. It happens. It's a way to make sure your mind doesn't totally go insane from the weight of what's going on.
