“I know The Marvels bombed but how can we make sure the next one bombs even harder?”
“New Star Wars idea: Flubber crossover”
“X-Men cameo in Star Wars?”
“This showdown scene with the villain needs to be rewritten. There’s too much suspense. We need to break the fourth wall and insert some fart jokes. Otherwise, how else will the audience know it’s just a movie?”
Would an X-Men/Star Wars crossover be any weirder than the Justice League/RWBY mashup that Warner Brothers did?
Or Suicide Squad Isekai? Cause it’s literally just called that.
Edit: I would honestly hate an official X-Men/Star Wars crossover. That type of stuff only works in fanart; e.g. Wolverine with lightsaber claws 🙄
They’re all in trouble. I used to like both Marvel and DC.
No idea why The Marvels bombed. It was as good as most other MCU movies.
Apparently people are burned out on super hero movies. At least the kind currently being made. I can’t wait for the next Joker movie with Joaquin Phoenix.
Personally, I’m tired of the Deadpool-style dialog in every Marvel movie. I like when movies have tension, like that movie with Heath Ledger as Joker.
I have watched maybe 1% of them. There were occasional gems that may not even survive a rewatch, but it’s all just so tired rinse-and-repeat, with a booming soundtrack and swooping/jiggling camera angles that let you know how to feel at every second. There’s no creativity. The people making these movies should be forced to watch films from the 1920s-1960s to learn how easy it is to create drama with absolute silence.
I feel it’s also a disservice to reality right now in a time when everything is falling off the rails.
We shouldn’t be filling people with false hope that some magic superheroes are going to save us from our current plights and we all just gotta Disney+ and chill, and wait for the post-credit clip showing the next twist that the next superheroes will have hammer-shields that fall out of their butt, and their joking sardonic sidekick talking cactus pilot actually has a family.
Have you seen Blackberry? That’s how you do drama with near silence. Glenn Howerton is a goddamn machine of acting.
Yes, that was a good film, although it didn’t stay completely true to the book or reality/history (which makes sense when making a film adaptation), but still was good cinema.
That’s probably exactly why it bombed. I burned out on MCU crap years ago. I don’t know how anyone is still watching it with however many movies they’re putting out per year that are almost all the same. Sure, they may be technically OK, but that only goes so far when it’s uninspired slop.
Yeah I skip the movies and all now. If I see something online (usually it needs to be multiple posts or comments) about the new show or movie, I might check it out. But even then it might be weeks or months until I get around to it.
I tried to watch the Black Panther sequel and I passed out in the first five minutes. I liked Loki though.
The villain was poorly written. I enjoyed most of the film but I just recall her being angry and wanting to join the bangles together?
