The Thor: Ragnarok film was released just a few days ago, and it received mostly positive reviews both from critics and the general public. In fact, it has been referred to by a number of critics as the best film in the Thor trilogy, with particular praise going towards the performances, action sequences, visuals, musical score, and humor. If you haven’t seen it yet, and you like super hero movies, you might want to check it out in a theatre near you. It’s available in standard, 3D, IMAX and IMAX 3D versions. 🙂
To celebrate the release of the film, LEGO posted a LEGO-ized version of the official movie poster at their social media pages, with the caption, “The mighty Thor is prepared to unleash his strength and assemble a team to battle the all-powerful.” I actually like the LEGO version of the poster more than the original!
Also, remember there are also a couple of LEGO sets related to the film. They were released a while ago, and we have talked about them before (see: LEGO Super Heroes 2017 Summer Sets Review), but they just became relevant with the recent release of the film. Now we can understand better what’s going on in each of the sets.

The Commodore spaceship is very swoosh-able and fun to play with, and the brick-built Fenris wolf is not bad. My favorite, however, is The Hulk outfitted as a gladiator. Such an awesome bigfig! The other minifig characters are also excellent. And I can also appreciate the gladiator arena better after the release of the film. If you want to check out the sets, they are available at the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes section of the Online LEGO Shop.
