I was expecting them not to do this, and instead have Guardians Vol. 3 be a placeholder fourth Thor movie (kinda like Ragnarok was a placeholder Hulk sequel). I remember Waititi also stating that he wanted to do for another Marvel character what he did for Thor, and this does hamper the release of the Akira movie (though admittedly Waititi is not who I would choose for that movie, and it IS an anime adaptation). And hell, Thor basically got a sendoff in Endgame anyways, even if it wasn't as good as the other six Avengers' (minus Hulk, who didn't really get one period). But all that said, I'm not particularly mad either, since it's a smart move to capitalize on Ragnarok just like they did with Winter Soldier (with Civil War), and Ragnarok was a blast.
