MCU is tanking and still no one wants to see your movies bro. You’re the problem. Exactly. Lets act as if streaming, lack of creativity and rebooting every freaking thing isn't more of a problem than a 4-5 super hero movies in a year.

Aaron Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 We’re almost out to the other side, thankfully. I haven’t seen anyone hyped for a comic book movie in forever and it feels like they’re all flopping at the box office. So glad that era is over with. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puttanesca Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 (edited) Does he sound like a boomer when he complains about superhero movies? Yes. Is MCU the McDonald's of film? Also yes. Thankfully, the MCU hype train has collapsed. Scorsese should be happy that we had two excellent original films released this year on the same day. Looking forward to watching Killers of the Flower Moon too. Edited September 27, 2023 by Puttanesca 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The older generation is mad we don't want to see movies about slavery, discrimination, and/or homophobia anymore. The one thing all of the 'comic book movies' have in common is DIVERSITY. It's not that we are choosing to not support movies with artistic vision, it's just that we embrace change and are voting with our wallets. We are telling them what we want, yet they turn their heads in stubbornness because back in the 80s and 90s they made great movies for that time!!! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just see how he didn't Say we have to support Jordan peele, which Is a real, great and innovator author but Nolan, with his last movie about men, made by men with only men at the centre and where the only 2 women are there to Say 2 words and being the Crazy lover sexually provocative or the good wife there to forget your husband cheated on you (while drinking and smoking a lot of course). The same old bi color representation of women ( the good wife vs the sexy *****). Edited September 27, 2023 by vale9001 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loveisdead9582 Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 I’m not going to argue that marvel’s movies could absolutely use a quality upgrade. That said, they are done for an entirely different audience usually. Not everything needs to be serious. Also, not everything needs to be male centric either. Marvel has been taking (albeit clumsy) strides to be more inclusive whereas his movies aren’t. It’s an old white men-centric cast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
