![]() ![]() Aggressive humor, which puts people down definitely, doesn’t allow for better traits, but affiliative humor that brings people up and creates an uplifting environment does. ![]() Of course, it depends on the type of humor that is used. Some research has found a connection among a good sense of humor, better psychological well-being and stronger social self-esteem. Humor, like all forms of social communication, can reveal quite a bit about a person. I think the use of humor does also allows the movie to explore characters in a new way. The movie doesn’t take itself too seriously, something I think majorly constitutes the downfall of other Marvel movies including the two previous installments of “Thor,” and because of that, makes it a lot more refreshing and entertaining to watch. It’s pleasing to see that (whether “Guardians” actually had an effect on the decision I do not know) Marvel Studios and “Ragnarok’s” director, Taika Waititi, decided to follow the humorous adventure trend. I personally really enjoyed the film, which is good because I would’ve been extra disappointed if I had walked three miles across campus in the cold and rain just to see a bad superhero movie, but it’s definitely one of the few movies I would actually call as being good. The same 80s retro aesthetic infused with classic oldies rock songs is used in the film, and there is the danger of overuse of the theme, but as of now it works for the two half-god space adventurers and their heroic tales. It’s a new style for the franchise, a sort of humor-based action-adventure that is likely to have spawned from the recent successes with the two “Guardians of the Galaxy” films. The movie stands out and above many of its fellow Marvel counterparts, both in quality and content. With its 93 percent rating from Rotten Tomatoes and 8.2 stars on IMDb, it’s no wonder “Ragnarok” is currently considered the most outrageously fun film Marvel has yet to produce. “Thor: Ragnarok” has been rocking box offices since its release and climbing the ranks as one of the best Marvel movies to date. ![]()
