lol it seems like my hot take is that I still like it. 🤷♂️
I ...
Didn't mind Quantumania. It was fine. The writers clearly don't know what either a technocracy or socialism is but that was the only part I had beef with.
Fucking Google the words you use when you're not sure, jeez.
I’ve liked them all, but they’re not all equal. The Marvels wasn’t exactly my cup of tea, but it wasn’t meant for me, a 40 year old dude. It was meant for young girls and I have a feeling it will be a movie looked back upon fondly by many women in 15-20 years.
They have good movies… for kids.
They pushed the stakes so high that when the fights are just everyone punching and kicking each other it's stupid and silly.
It always makes me think of the reenactment of the battle of Pearl Harbor.
It's always been garbage. Not this multiverse or after im3 or whatever. The movies have always been trash.
I feel the same way. I don't mind anybody liking them, but I just don't see the appeal. To me they're so tremendously boring that I can't stand watching them.
Reading this I feel lucky that I managed to avoid most of it
They kinda ruined it with the multiverse. Everything feels without consequence. Death is meaningless and there are no stakes now
That it's shit
Big loud bang bang movies that do nothing more than dumb down their audience further. And the superheroes weirdly and conveniently save the status quo of an awful world over and over again.
Not very engaging and hard to care about the characters. They put so many characters and fight scenes that it's hard to care about a any of the even if they technically killed half of them.
The actual hot take is that most of these movies are actually pretty good in the context of their correlation to source materials. As critically acclaimed movies: debatable; but as an adaptation? Unbelievably they tie a really neat rope around a hodge podge of different ideas and oddly make it work.
The truly hot take is that these movies serve there purpose well and do a great job being a vehicle for the story in the comics (sometimes)
That it's gotten to be as boring as the DC movies always were.
I'm sure this is a hot take with how common I see the shit talking about multiverse being lazy.
The multiverse idea is dope.
It's only the way they have been using it that sucks.
Into the Spider-Verse did it right. The comics have done it right. Cartoon series from the 80's and 90's did it right. The current MCU era is using it wrong.
Multiverses and Alternative Universes are very lazy plot devices. I wish the Marvel Universe would do ballsy choices and stick to them. Like keeping Iron Man dead. You decided to kill him, so keep that choice.
The writing for Endgame was lazy crap to just let them wrap things up with an epic battle. The second they introduced time travel and said, "okay, here are our specific rules we need to follow," I just checked out. It was a lazy deus ex machina so they could just retcon all of the story lines and have the battle scenes. The battle was entertaining, but didn't feel earned. If they done something with everyone being trapped in the soul-stone or in a parallel universe it would have been so much more interesting. Like if you had both universes working together to rejoin then an epic battle, but no, let's just time travel and bring everyone back, but also let Tony keep his kid. It was just lazy.
It should be smaller, not bigger, also movies should align more with the director's vision and less with Feige's.
