What if I'd want a Thor movie and not a campy parody like the MCU is to Marvel in general? Not that I'd expect one at this point considering that ship has long since sailed.
It’s a Marvel movie. You knew what you were getting before you even bought a ticket.
Not at all, the MCU as a whole is a negative for both the medium of film and comicbooks as a whole. Both will be better off once they go away or get replaced with something better and apathy's the only reason you'd think otherwise. Film gets drowned in quirky "irony" filled slop that holds their premises at arm's length since they could never be sincere while comicbooks get these parodies as their face to general audiences and influxes of writers seeing them as a gateway into TV/Film.
“Medium of film and comic books.” Pretentious art fag detected.
Who brought up Citizen Kane or Watchmen? I'm saying they're shittier than the Jason Aaron Thor comics they're extremely loosely "adaptating". I'm saying it's a problem when you have so many of these being pumped out drowning out the market with underpaid CG artists and the numerous problems surrounding them.
Well they basically went to the most extreme level in that direction with Loki, where even the infinity stones, the whole reason for half the mcu plots and these maguffins being the center of probably the two most major movies the mcu will ever have, infinity war and endgame, are made worthless in an attempt to make the stakes in that show somehow even higher. They officially gave up the ghost here for me. If you haven't seen Loki either, just don't.
You know I keep seeing people say this, and I'm actually the exact opposite. I find it crazy that before these last couple of movies, the main thing people bitched about was "having to see all of them to understand anything", only for now the number one complaint being that all of them are stand alones that don't continue one overarching narrative. As if half of the "Infinity Saga" wasn't shit they jammed together retroactively to make fit to begin with. I don't mine these "stand alone" movies one bit.
It's kinda funny watching that happen since it parallels a thing you hear a lot with actual comics. You always have people mistakenly believing they need to read everything even though they don't and so they demand a reboot. These same people will then cite "too many reboots" as a thing keeping them out even though Marvel has had no reboots and DC has only really had 1 (hard) reboot. So casual audiences are always demanding reboots to fix a reboot issue they think is there without ever being self-aware about it.
I enjoy the standalone stuff (Moon Knight especially), but there's a certain appeal to seeing everything come together. Hopefully Thunderbolts or Young Avengers isn't too far off.
I think people just want more compelling narratives. Comic book characters can easily be used to tell some of the best stories in pop culture, yet the MCU doesn’t even try. It is a string of movies made by people who openly seem to hate comic books and believe they are inherently stupid. Honestly, all I really want is a superhero plot that takes its story seriously.
Anyone who says retarded shit like "medium of film" is a pretentious art fag. I simply provided art fag references from popular culture that even non-art fags can recognize, so everyone can keep up.
Can you at least type something coherent? Besides I'm one of the last people you could really call a poser about this stuff and I never once said changing things for an adaptation is bad in itself. You might notice I'm not making walls of noise like yourself.
For some reason, Marvel seem to have reverted to their Phase 2 mentality of "It's not important to have an interesting or developed villain, we just need someone to drive the plot forward and fight with the hero at the end". So far the only villains in this phase who've made any real impact are Green Goblin and Scarlet Witch, and they were both characters who'd already been established in previous movies.
In hindsight, it's lucky that Thanos was handled as well as he was in Infinity War because he sure as hell didn't have much development before that point.
You were embarassed after being called out for having a faux-intellectual normie-level “I don’t like current popular thing” contrarian opinion in a thread discussing popular thing.
Here, I'll make it simple for you.
