Interest was low after end game, and on life support after Thor 4. Guardians went over well as an end to that series, and Deadpool as a non MCU movie. If fantastic 4 is bad I think that’s the end.
My mom’s fiance. But he thinks the moonshiners show and wrestling are real, so its possible he thinks the world is actually being saved when he watches them.
I don’t think anyone around me has ever been excited for them. Maybe there was interest around the time of the first two Avengers films, but it’s so long ago now that I can’t remember. The first one was the only time I ever watched one of these films in the cinema and whilst it was somewhat enjoyable as far as superhero films go, I had absolutely no desire to pay to see another one. They are so blatantly cookie cutter to me I’m not really sure how people can remain excited for them over such a long period of time.
Im the biggest comic book fan in my life and I have not cared much for any of the media stuff since the doctor strange movie.
it all looks like schlock to me…
One person, yes. The rest were never into them very much anyway.
I’m not going to jump on the MCU hate wagon. Some of them have been great, others less so. But none have been actually bad movies. There’s nothing wrong with making fun and forgettable entertainment.
Hard disagree, I made it about 20-30 min through eternals and had to just shut it off
Eternals was the first MCU movie where I was like, this one should have been a miniseries on Disney+.
Telling a story through time like that should take time. Would have been good to do an episode on each of them and then have them reunite and stuff.
Also, like, in terms of the acting… I didn’t think it was great. Angelina Jolie is by far the best actor on the cast. So much so, it’s jarring. The ending was weird too. Felt thematically like it came from a different genre too.
I definitely wanted to like it more than I did.
That says more about you than the movie.
Its mcdonalds of cinema: Its just safely not bad.
This is more a reflection of your food standards than the quality of the films. McDonald’s is, and always has been, dogshit.
I eat it every once in a while but most powerful drug is nostalgia rather than quality of mcdonalds. same with marvel movies, it’s more “WOW THAT GUY FROM BOOK WHEN I WAS KID!!!”. Nerdslop is made to cash in on that.
Yes!
Whilst I agree with your sentiment I do feel like some of them have objectively been bad movies in a lot of ways. But it is the exception, most of them have been mediocre, some a bit better, some a bit worse. But to say there haven’t been a couple of real stinkers is maybe not the whole truth either.
I’ve enjoyed all of the movies in the moment (except ant man 3) but a few I’ve liked less the more i think back on them.
Spidey 3, deadpool 3, falcon (mostly), Loki and wandavision were great at release and still are to me (i guess the jury is still out on deadpool with it being so new)
I don’t think I’ve seen anyone excited since a couple of movies after endgame. I was likewise - I watched some with high hopes but kept being disappointed, it seems they’ve run out of story writing and turned to miscellaneous amalgamated cartoon hijinks with random jokes and purposeless CGI.
The people around me are more concerned with the insanity going on in our government than the movie theaters.
Only Cap 4. I personally am mostly excited for Thunderbolts* but I have friends who have been talking about Cap 4 for at least a month or two now, and they’re extremely casual MCU fans. I feel like the break in superhero movies has really ignited an unexpected appetite for superhero films again amongst moviegoers. Even I am looking forward to Cap 4 now, even with all of the rumors that it’s going to be bad and all the rumors and stuff.
Yes I still see a few very excited about them. My father watches all of them too. If he watches them, I’ll join in if I’m home to spend time with him. Otherwise I don’t get watching MCU or star wars. I’ll only do it on my own if they have good reviews.
Nope it’s been over for years.
