What we do in the Shadows, both the show, and the film are excellent! Outside of that, I've been disappointed with his films.
Jojo Rabbit is one of the best films of the past 10 years.
I'm done with him though after I paid money to go see a movie that's previews made it out to be an underdog soccer story and it really was just a story about the struggles one girl went through becoming a tranny while being on a mens soccer team.

Yeah, JoJo is a good film and he has made some really good ones
Not sure I have ever seen someone flame out so spectacularly

I was a fan of Hunt for the Wilderpeople as well. Fun, heartwarming movie.

It's wild. I thought he was going to be one of the next top directors. I had never even heard of the movie mentioned in the OP. The movie itself doesn't look 1.1 million at the box office bad but I guess he is just a turn off for people now.

I've read that his ex-wife was a big contributor to his earlier success. His later work reflects her absence.

Are you on crack? Ragnarok is the high water mark of the whole series.

Jojo Rabbit and Wilderpeople are both good, but thats all I can think of.
To be fair, both of these films are great.

Boy was also excellent, and gets overlooked on this forum. If you like Wilderpeople, there's a 99% chance you'll like this one too. Both are very funny and heartwarming without getting shmaltzy.

It is the quintessential example of “moron humor”, “constant talking and exposition”, and “downplaying of serious moments”.
It was good when I first watched it.
It is mediocre on repeat.
It is when they turned Thor into a moron bimbo.
It is the Marvel version of the Ghostbusters 2016 movie.

I’ve enjoyed every one of his movies i’ve watched but I haven’t seen this one or the one before it.
I really liked both Thor Movies Hunt for Wilderpeople, WWDIS, and I think JoJo Rabbit is one of those top 10 movies of a decade films. Absolutely brilliant.
I think he’s hit the “I can do whatever I want and don’t have to listen to opinion” stage post marvel money.

I'd say more of MCU humor than millennial humor. I think it started with Guardians of the Galaxy and really took off after Ragnarok. I loved Infinity War and Endgame but the MCU was much better early on when there was some darker tones and not every movie just trying to straight up be a buddy comoedy.

Irrelevant. Out of touch. Obsolete. In the bin.”
So he doesn’t know what they are saying, but he knows why.
This has Moscona vibes all over it like when he says he doesn’t look at Tigerdroppings ever.

Ragnarok started the destruction of the Thor character that the Russos finished off. The first two Thor movies met with mixed results. At the same time, RDJ was a breakout superstar as Tony/Ironman. So, predictably, Marvel thought, "If one wisecracking superhero is good, let's make ALL of our superheros comedians". Completely emasculated him, also. A Norse god allowed an ugly, female lesser being totally overwhelm and subdue him. Then he cries like an 8th grade girl whose cat got run over when he's about to meet the Goldblum Master.
That's not to mention the Hanna-Barbera/Etch-a-Sketch level CGI throughout the movie.
It was enjoyable; while, at the same time, a turrible Thor movie.
*It did, however, have one of the singular baddest arse moments of the entire MCU. Thor+Led Zeppelin is hard to beat

JoJo Rabbit is brilliant. I also loved Reservation Dogs on FX. Great coming of age show
