These comments are depressing.
I for one enjoyed the movie a lot. Had fun with it.
Yeah it wasn’t bad, fun little time waster
Marvel is depressing.
I enjoyed the movie. Should’ve had Red Hulk be a surprise, but I still enjoyed & had the neuron activation that was expected.
People are getting tired of spending money on the 50th installment of bangy bang bang computer generated special effects? Did the trailer have enough ominous bass? Was there enough stars and stripes? Did they defend the status quo hard enough?
maybe the trailer needed some Taiko drums?
or an ominously orchestral version of a beloved 1980’s/1990’s pop song?
Lost interest after Endgame.
I enjoyed some of the shows like Wandavision and Loki but I’ve pretty much fallen off watching any of this stuff entirely now.
The only thing I’ve been looking forward to recently is the new Daredevil series. Wandavision was decent. Moon Knight was good. She-Hulk had lots of potential but just dropped the ball IMHO. We never finished Loki season 2 (just lost insterest). We ended up canceling Disney+ because the Marvel shows were a dud for the most part.
Loki Season 2 ended really well.
I didn’t care for Loki Season 2. But I have liked most of the shows, and like half the movies since Endgame.
Could it be that after milking that sorry Marvel franchise for all it was worth for years, Disney fails to excite people with their nth ultra-samey, ultra-low-originality rehash?
They’re just not willing to take the risks they were talking when marvel was still going solo before it’s Disney acquisition. Disney isn’t big on risks.
Every time they divert they get major pushback. Two of my favorites, Doctor Strange MoM and She-Hulk, strayed too far and got a lot of negativity for it (personal preference aside, they definitely got flak for being different).
What risks did they use to take? As long as I remember the Marvel movies have been formulaic copies
Giving creative control to specific directors to let their vision shine through the project: Iron Man, Guardians of the Galaxy, Thor Love and Thunder, etc.
Edit meant Thor Ragnarok the Taika Waititi directed movie.
I mean, Iron man was like literally the first movie in the MCU (discounting that Hulk movie), it also literally started the trope of Bad Guy has literally the same skillset/power as the good guy that was replicated a bunch of times.
GotG, and Thor: Ragnarok are the only movies that are unique and carried by their directors.
Love and thunder is a dumpster fire.
Ah I think Thor Ragnarok was what I meant, the Taika Waititi directed movie
Both are directed by Watiti. However, he got high on his own supply after Ragnarok, which how he made Love and Thunder.
In my opinion, Ragnarok itself was mid af movie with too many quips. And I absolutely hated Korg which was just a Watiti self-insert.
love and thunder has some incredible deleted scenes though, like thor’s conversation with zeus, and the gorr ripping his tattoos off (not sure if this was released)
Y’all still watching this slop?!
I like most of it. So yes.
I stopped watching marvel movies a long time ago. I didn’t even know Cap was a black dude now.
That’s falcon bruh
Don’t even know who that is lol. I got bored around avengers 2
He was introduced in The Winter Soldier, a few movies before Avengers 2.
Right on. My son is around the age where he should enjoy them, and I figured I’d eventually have to marathon them with him, but so far, he’s not into it. I’m sure eventually I’ll get around to watching them.
Should have stop after endgame. But no, gotta keep milking it.
Or at least a pause while they figured out what was next
