Considering it's a film that will mostly won't take place on earth (apparently a maximum of 3 scenes will, and at least one of them will involve the scene in the alley, ***SPOILERS***, and Thor meeting Doctor Strange), I think it's more fitting for it to go the GotG-route than the original direction done by Branagh in the first Thor-film.

And it's also more in the direction of what Taika Waititi usually would do, since he described it as being a "road movie", and made the comparison on how Captain America: Civil War was about "humans with human problems", while in Ragnarok it's about "creatures and beings and all these sorts of really different characters [...] displaying human problems, but in outer space or in other worlds."[1]

And while I do think one can make a "road movie" in the style of LotR, most people wouldn't like that, since that is one of the complaints of those films is how much walking there is.
