vale9001 Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 (edited) The Marvels is just another massive box office bomb this year for the genre. What is happening? Why they're not cool anymore?. All the combinations of genders, races and colour of wigs to appeal the Graces Randolphs are already used and not an IT factor for making them cool anymore for young people and outside the core target of comics nerds?. Are Robert Downey Racist Jr. only relevant movies finally over? Discuss. Edited November 12, 2023 by vale9001 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Domination Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 (edited) People don’t want to waste their time on broader narratives/“cinematic universes” anymore that go nowhere. They want to see Batman, Spiderman, and heroes/villains they know and recognize. Edited November 12, 2023 by Domination 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alaska. Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 The milking of IPs kills all the enjoyment. I used to be excited for the new Star Wars shows that were coming up when The Mandalorian was enjoyable for everyone, but now I couldn't care less and I'll stick to watch the original trilogy when I feel like doing so. I'm excited for the new Avatar The Last Airbender stuff that's coming up (not the Netflix live action though), but I'm also afraid the franchise will get overexposed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleStarmen Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 Many things but honestly these new heroes dont even have powers you can recongzine? Whats Mrs Marvel power?

Nightingale Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 I barely saw any promo for the new Marvel movie. And at this point they’re just using all the minor superheroes that the GP doesn’t care about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odette Violet Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 It already peaked. Wonder Woman 1 remains the best superhero film in recent times imo. 2 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All Guns Blazing Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 Its a case of quantity over quality where too many superhero movies have a story and/or characters not good & interesting enough for people to watch. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamThiem Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 Convoluted storylines. Now everyone's ass can come back whenever they want bc of messy multiverses. Too many of these films have storylines that force you to watch 3 other films just to understand what is happening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dialamba Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 It’s the equivalent of releasing 4 Scream films in a year. It’s fun to watch but ain’t nobody has the energy for that. It’s just the same plot with different characters. They need to come with something else. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoyLikeYouSuxx Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 There's no originality anymore, every movie has a similar structure without any genuine twists or fake-outs. It makes for a lack or agency and feels like regurgitated cash grabs with corny one-liners. Wonder Woman 1, Black Panther 1 & 2, Spider-verse ALL felt amazing because they had stories with personal stakes, that were lighthearted when appropriate but serious and show-stopping when the action came around. I feel like Deadpool will be an anomolly because the character is supposed to be cheeky and wall-breaking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glitch Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 When it comes to superheroes, your average member of the GP knows Spiderman, Batman, Superman, X-Men and maybe Fantastic Four. Marvel did a pretty good job of introducing people to the original Avengers but they were daft to think they could keep adding in other characters and people would still care. The films also feel a bit repetitive at this point. I don't really buy the whole "go woke, go broke" angle. I reckon if they'd had more female led films earlier on in the franchise they would've done much better. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBJT2786 Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 I think they need to step back a bit and keep it 1 to 2 Marvel films and 1 DC film every year. This oversaturation ( combined with terrible writing) is what making the genre die faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
