September 8th it is apparently.
Deleted scene with Simon Russell Beale as Dionysus:
It doesn't really add much so I'm glad they omitted it.
But with its release, fingers crossed we'll get to see the deleted scenes with Jeff Goldblum, Peter Dinklage, and Lena Headey, too.

Another deleted scene (no YouTube link), this time with Zeus.
Considering how the film actually concludes, this scene is apparently from a path not taken.

I would have much preferred that to be honest. Give us more time for an intimate Thor/Jane focus which is where the movie's strength was, Portman and Hemsworth were so good. And skip the whole pointless and disappointing "Omnipotence City" detour.
(An entire city of gods and you're only going to give us Russell Crowe doing a pantomime "Greek" accent as scaredy-cat Zeus? Not a single war god was like "Yeah, let's do this!" when Thor says "To hell with hiding"? Bast? Tawaret?)

Yet another deleted scene (but, again, no YouTube link).
This time with Star-Lord and Mantis which shows more of Thor's meditation. As oppose to the previous two scenes, I do wish this one was kept because it's so wonderfully silly. That and more Mantis is always a good thing.

It would have robbed us of that cool end scene where Zeus gives that monologue on how superheroes have become Modern Gods.
Just finished it. Sweet Zeus that was unhinged.
The majority of dialogue was attempting to land jokes and it got tiresome - I say this as someone who enjoyed Ragnarok. Some of the humor worked (screaming goats were initially funny), but much of it fell flat or drifted into cringe territory.
Music was great, as was Natalie.
Less is more. I'd give it a 2 1/2 out of 5.

I was shocked by how unfunny I found it, considering how much I've enjoyed every other Taika Waititi thing I've watched (including Ragnarok which I rewatched and still really liked.) It felt like a comedy sketch parodying superhero movies, whereas Ragnarok mostly just felt like a funny superhero movie.
I just saw the movie. My wife and her friend found the movie bad, almost as terrible as Ragnarok.
So I prepared myself, and I don't think it is as terrible as Ragnarok. The best parts for me were the Guardians scenes and everything with Jane, which is remarkable because I didn't like her in the other Thor movies. So when Ragnarok is one of the worst Marvel movie, love and Thunder is the the best Thor movie.

I do think there was some big character moment that got left out of the film in the scene where he was inside talking with the captured kids. Something about that scene really felt like it was building to something important but just never got there. I'd love to see the full version of that conversation (assuming I'm even right about it existing).
I thoroughly enjoyed this, despite quite a bit of telegraphing of the important plot points. Easily the best of the Thor films. A.
There are leaked set photos of Jane's first transformation scene that was cut.
I do find it odd that Jane's first transformation was cut. As disappointed as I was by their omission, at least I can understand why the scenes with Peter Dinklage, Jeff Goldblum, and Lena Headey were dropped (but I still hope we get to see them), I'm still hoping against precedence that we'll get a longer cut of the film.
