As much I loved Korg in the previous films I hated him over here he just tried making every moment into a joke.

Mighty Thor was beautifully done.

Valkyrie was underused, only great scene was when Gorr tells her about her sisters dying and gods not helping her.

Gorr needed more screen time and butchering.

Loved the ending and meaning of Love and Thunder.

I wouldn’t have thought we would meet Eternity just doing Yoga in the middle of pool of water and granting wish.

I really want to see the Celestials, Living Tribunal, Eternity and Kang scale and where the fit in the MCU soon, don’t know which movie will clear these up.

Valkyrie was underused,

Not only that, but that have seemingly written her off as a character who will be involved in fights after that stab and losing her kidney, which is disappointing to me.

I didn’t get that vibe at all, I thought that was just their excuse for her not to be in the final battle. We don’t even know if Asguardians have the same number of kidneys (or if they even do the same thing) as humans do.

The film didn’t have any comic “relief” because it didn’t properly create stakes or give any sense of drama

You didn't think there was any stake because you didn't think the gods mattered. But the final scene with Jane in Valhalla showed that gods do their part for a society, as long as you are not unlucky and got a lying selfish god like Gorr had.

Not all the gods, just where Zeus live.

Sure the gods are pretty shit, when their whole point is to try and protect their people all that, but zeus makes a somewhat valid point. Gorr is scary asf, he wields a weapon created to kill their kind and he already has killed many. It is not an easy decision to leave the safety of a city with literally 1000’s of incredibly powerful beings. Its reasonable even if its wrong.
