So what do you want to be called?
This film ruled. I was pretty surprised at just how funny it was. It scratched the same itch that Guardians did, and at points did it better. Loki's line after Thor gets smashed in the ring had me rolling.The only part I had any problem with, and a minor one at that, was the "your weapon doesn't define you" arc that they already walked down in Iron Man 3.

I liked the idea of Thor being unintentionally funny -- I'm not into him actively cracking jokes. The opening scene bugged me especially and it took me a while to get into the movie because of it.

This is the same Thor who convinced his friends to go to Jotunheim because he thought killing some Frost Giants would be a rollicking good time. Pretty sure black humor is where Thor lives.

Now you're right, the movie amped it up, but considering how funny it was, I really don't mind. I'll take interesting stories over complete character consistency across a dozen+ films.
