Classic! You cannot go wrong with this film and I've seen it probably 150 times it just gets better.

Once Thor and Hulk unite, Ragnarok becomes a sort of road-trip film, with director Taika Waititi drawing inspiration from movies like 48 HRS., Withnail and I, and even Planes, Trains and Automobiles.

What is your favorite plot twist in any movie? I loved the plot twist in Planes, Trains and Automobiles.

Planes, Trains and Automobiles. That’s a great movie—I won’t make excuses for that one.

I feel like all of my favorite comedy since then in some way draws from that — Planes, Trains and Automobiles comes to mind, and What About Bob?, and Midnight Run; these all employ the same template and they’re my favorites, but I feel like I can trace it all the way to Way Out West.
