Ragnarok is all the better for the pair not being awkwardly shoved into the adventure, and while it's a shame more wasn't done with a world-class actor of Portman's caliber throughout the series, Thor's third film thrives just fine without her or Kat Dennings.

No more Mew-Mew, thank God, though it's a shame we had to lose Erik Selvig as well.
