"Who has suffered more than Wanda?" Uh, just off the top of my head, Thor? Dude watched his father die, lost an eye to his own sister, lost his world shortly after, then lost half his remaining people to Thanos and watched his brother be murdered in front of him, then failed to stop Thanos from murdering half the universe in what should've been his moment of victory and held himself personally responsible for the resulting loss of lives. Wanda lost her boyfriend, then enslaved an entire town full of people so she could live out a fantasy life, and then got so upset about having to leave her fake children that she went on a multi-verse killing spree looking for real versions of her children that she could kidnap. Why exactly are we supposed to feel bad for Wanda?

Eh, kinda but not really. To play devil's advocate a bit, I don't think you're actually acknowledging the totality of her actual story. Her craphole country at the crossroads to everywhere else got bombed to kingdom come. Her hometown got blown to bits and her parents died when she and her brother were children, leaving them orphans, traumatized under rubble for days waiting for a bomb to blow up in their faces until they "miraculously" got out. They got taken in by Hydra who indoctrinated them and did cruel experiments on them which should have killed them for God knows how long to activate their powers. After seeing the error of her ways and trying to make right, she basically screws up playing hero in a somewhat unavoidable accident because Crossbones put the team into an unwinnable situation that got dozens of people killed. Not her fault, but not how the government sees it, so they try to register all the heroes in a power grab that tears apart her new family, resulting in said government throwing her and her friends who didn't do anything wrong into the underwater gulag for super psychos simply because they didn't want big brother breathing down their necks telling them who they can and can't help. Eventually she had to kill the one "guy" who actually stuck around, understood her and didn't treat her like a monster or a potential ticking time bomb, and her legitimate sacrifice of her own desires accomplished absolutely nothing because Thanos pulled an Uno reverse card and got what he wanted from Vision anyway, leaving her absolutely nothing to show for it. That's a legitimate sacrifice that was for absolutely nothing (so it makes sense that she'd later say screw it and everyone who gets in the way of what she wants down the road, it's not good, but it makes sense). Then, sure, she helps save the world, but that's some small consolation to her when you've lost multiple of the only friends she ever had along with the only other stabilizing element in her otherwise chaotic and depressing life once its all over. Absolutely nothing justifies anything she does beyond this point, of course, but I think some people kinda attribute more to her than the show itself actually does. People act as though she just decided to enslave thousands of people when she didn't. Sure, that's what she ultimately did, no excuses, and she absolutely needed to pay the piper for that, but they pretty clearly established that her magical TV land was basically an accident, a subconscious product of her broken psyche. She basically went batshit crazy, had no concept of the reality of the world around her and didn't want to wake up from her delusional dream world because she didn't have the help she needed to cope with reality (the fact they didn't use Hawkeye to try to reach her is dumb as it would make sense for her friejd to do for her, but it's obvious why it didn't happen, because the stupid novice showrunner said they didn't want a man outshining the wahmen protagonist). As far as I'm concerned, she has an entirely sympathetic backstory that poor writing kinda failed to communicate because they spent more time telling instead of showing. Some people kinda forget because they just stop listening the longer someone takes to tell them something rather than actually show them. Apparently the terrible "they'll never know what you've sacrificed" line was misinterpreted according to the writer or showrunner or whatever. It wasn't supposed to excuse her actions. The point was that nobody's gonna care about the raw deal of a life that brought her to this point or the sacrifices made to do anything good because they'll just remember the pain and suffering she caused them because she allowed herself to lose her mind and lose control of her powers in a moment of weakness. Basically, ya done goofed, but you're still deserving of empathy, and I'm sorry life gave you a raw deal. That makes a whole lot more sense, but it was terribly communicated. I think we were meant to absolve her of guilt because the whole "enslaving a town thing" wasn't a willful act of selfish malice, but their incompetance at telling this story lead them to believe that this meant it was perfectly okay to just let her off entirely. That's like someone getting off for manslaughter just because it wasn't premeditated murder. Manslaughter is obviously not nearly as bad or deserving of equal guilt and condemnation as premeditated murder, but just letting someone off with no consequences whatsoever is a gross miscarriage of justice. Sure, she didn't psychically enslave thousands of people on purpose, and that retains some of her integrity, but the least they could've done was more clearly acknowledge the horrific nature of what she did regardless of her intentions amd have her face some consequences, even if she does so disingenuously. Send her back to the Raft and able to go on leave to work off her sentence. It would've changed absolutely nothing about how the story actually progressed, and it would've preserved some semblance of justice. She could've just astral projected out of her cell to secretly study the Darkhold under her captors' noses, and then break loose when she's temporarily released from prison to help Dr. Strange. Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness could've basically played out more or less the same as far as her story is concerned. Meanwhile they arrest the guy in charge of actually stopping what Wanda did because reasons... The ending of Wandavision in particular pretty much ruined what good work they were at least trying to do to give the character more of the depth and attention that she lacked in previous movies. The fact they leaned into her being a delusional villain in Dr. Strange 2 was pretty much the only route they could've taken with her at that point, because whether it was intended or not, that's clearly where Wandavision left her after she paid absolutely no penalty for her crimes while comtinuing to study the most evil object in the universe to acquire more power. I have zero issue with her goi g psycho over imaginary made up children because Doctor Strange calls her out for exactly what she was doing, and it was pretty clearly established that holding onto delusions is pretty much all she feels she has left, and because doing good and helping others never actually got her anywhere in life, it makes sense from her mentally ill (and magically corrupted) perspective that she's entitled to tell anyone who stands in the way of what she wants to go screw themsevles. Personally, I think she should've just gone back to the Raft willingly at the end of Dr. Strange and left the door open for a redemption arc down the line, but they seem to have, at least for the moment, closed that door on that by killing her off now that Olsen's contract has apparently run its course. The idea of what they were doing with the characters makes total sense if she's understood as a tragic character who becomes a villain because of the loss that being a hero gave her, but I think it doesn't communicate well because they failed to follow the basic storytelling rule of show, don't tell. I think Wandavision tried to fix this, but whatever the problem was, whether it's poor writing ability, an honest to God warped sense of morality, an ignorance of how the justice system works, or some combination thereof, the ending of the character's own show just falls flat on its face in execution from a narrative standpoint. I'm perfectly fine with how she was used in Dr. Strange, although I can see an argument that she shouldn't have just killed herself, but I don't blame anyone for having little investment and failing to follow the actual story she was given after Wandavision fumbled the ball in the end out of incompetance.

Thor and wanda are the two characters that have probably suffered the most in the MCU, but you are really underselling how much Wanda has lost 1. as a small child her parents were killed in front of her by mortars obliterating their apartment, she and her brother than spent 3 days hiding under a bed staring at an unexploded shell with "Stark industries" painted on the side, wondering if it was going to go off and kill them. 2. After years of fermenting hatred she and her brother volunteered for traumatic experimentation in an effort to help destroy the man who she felt was responsible for her parent's deaths (Tony Stark) 3. She aided a villain in an attempt to destroy Stark, only to realize she had been aiding someone who was going to destroy the human race, and realized she was personally responsible for it. She attempted to help stop it only for her brother to be killed by the monster she fed in Tony's mind. 4. After the death of her brother she went on to try and atone by working with the Avengers. she accidentally kills a dozen people preventing a suicide bomber from killing her leader and a market full of people, sparking a Civil war among the superheroes. she aids her leader (Captain america) in trying to prevent a madman from getting his hands on an army of sup-soldier assassins only for the hero responsible for keeping her locked up to accidentally paralyze another hero trying to stop her. As punishment for trying to do the right thing, she was put in a straight jacket on a maximum security prison in the middle of nowhere. 5. Post Civil war she flees from the hero business and is just trying to live out a life with Vision when he gets stabbed in the abdomen by aliens trying to rip the stone out of his skull. she has to face the fact that she is going to die protecting him before they are saved by Cap's group and Vision suggest she *kill him, her lover* to prevent Thanos getting the stone. they try to find another way but fail and *she does* kill him to save half the life in the universe, only for Thanos to revive him in front of her and kill him *again* 6. She gets the opportunity to fight thanos and avenge her lover, but fails. she can't even get vengeance. 7. she asks for her lover's body to bury, but is told "nah bitch it's government property" by a twatwaffle who expressly dismisses Vision's sentience and wants her to bring him back as a weapon. and that is about all her character arc before she *unintentionally and accidentally* enslaved a town full of people. Hell it is as much Strange's fault as hers for his failure to reach out to her about her magic before something bad happened. strap a bomb to someone and then take away everything they ever loved and don't be surprised when they blow up. you can complain about how she seems to be held up a bit as a hero by one bad line of dialogue, but there is no doubt she is a far better character than other female marvel "heroes" like Marvel and Valkyrie... and yeah Valkyrie really is a piece of shit when you realize that her story was her girlfriend in the Asgard military died saving her life so she went to a backwater world to be a slaver for drinking money but now she is kween of asgard because diversity. Wanda is just a human with superpowers dealing with far more grief than any human is meant to bear. she is definitely not a hero, but just because someone isn't a paragon of virtue doesn't mean one shouldn't have sympathy for them. She tries to do the right thing and every time it always goes to shit. she tries to be left alone and that goes to shit too. She tries to get closure and *that* goes to shit. So when everything kept going to shit she said fuck it and exploded into a villain. Thor on the other hand is a 3000 year old Asgardian god. he has as much or more tragedy than Wanda but handles it in a different way. He internalizes it and sets it aside. bottling it up in the masculine manner of Stoicism until there is just too much and he breaks down into a drunkard trying to avoid facing it. If he were personally able to have created a reality where none of it ever happened I bet he probably would have too. I haven't watched anything after endgame, and i don't intend too. I didn't like their usage of Thor as comic relief in Endgame at all either, male mental health issues being dismissed, as per usual. Endgame itself was a mixed bag. i could definitely feel the dismissiveness towards the old guard/male characters.

Let's be brutally honest. If the MCU had started with the characters that are being introduced now (except Dr. Strange) there would not be an MCU. The MCU would've died after 2-3 flops. The MCU was built on Iron Man's and Cap's shoulders. Compare the new characters with them. It's an effing joke.

His attitude through most of the original Avengers movie has that edge of condescension - Black Widow is dumb for thinking he's falling for her lies, SHIELD is dumb for trying to bring him in, SHIELD is dumb for putting him on the Helicarrier.

Right? That intensity and unsettled nature of Ruffalo's Banner sitting right under the surface at all times in Avengers 1 was awesome. This was a man who's realised that his version of a happy medium, his norm, amounts to him suffering an existence where he's perpetually at the end of his tether. That's what he has to endure, the weight on his shoulders, given that he is one big ticking time bomb. He had to make peace with that part of him, cruel and unjust as he rightly finds it. But the later movies (looking at you Ragnarok) did a brutal 180 on that side of him and made him 'generic Marvel goof #8' just like Thor and similarly nerfed him for good measure to complete that image. Hauntingly disappointing that the awesome warrior Hulk personality from Ragnarok was killed off in Endgame and replaced with The Credible Hulk which amounts to a wussier version of Bruce (who cringes at getting angry and needs saving by fucking Giant Man) parading in a big green Hulk skin since the actual Hulk and any of the elements he brought to the table are nowhere to be seen.

If you look at the earlier Marvel films, phase 1, they just have a different tone. They treat the characters with respect, depth and seriousness. There were some jokes and silliness too, but there was quality there. These latest ventures come across too silly for my liking. As a big Hulk fan, they still haven’t shown the true power of Hulk and he should have had redemption against Thanos. And speaking of series, it would have been cool seeing a Hulk series where we could see him in his different transformations, like Joe Fixit.

My biggest gripe about Endgame is they handed Banner a happy ending on a silver platter. I get that the movie is 2 1/2 hours and couldn't show everything. But they were just starting to establish Hulk as his own character, beyond "the tornado that happens when Banner loses it." This brand-new person, just starting his own stories, conflicts, and growth, was wiped away in an instant with a throwaway line. Basically Disney murdered a child because "Credible Hulk is funny." The only thought that gives me a shred of hope for Banner/Hulk stories now is that he has seemingly been totally cured in the past, the powerful body and the powerful mind together with no conflict -- but it never, ever lasts. Knowing the current trend, all we'll get from this point forward will be an occasional Credible Hulk cameo.

It's hysterical because Bucky is a million times more interesting and open to stories and interactions than Sam but they jumped straight past Bucky for him even though Bucky has such a better story during his Captain America days and, in the MCU, was foreshadowed so much as being Captain America yet after the boost in identity politics and woke writing in movies post 2016 they quickly 'subverted' towards Falcon Cap. Everyone just brings up the 'Oh, Captain America didn't die in the MCU and Bucky would be a bad look for Captain America because in the MCU the world knows his crimes' but they forget how in the comics Bucky actually had a trial for his crimes which could have been done but instead they just waved it away with a 'the president pardoned him'. Anthony Mackie is a phenomenal actor and, while I'd still put Sebastian beyond him for range, it's at least nice seeing him in a bigger role. But I really hate how Bucky is dangerously at risk of being relegated, with an iron grip, to 'joint lead or supporting character' who is exclusively featured in Captain America movies where he isn't Cap because the MCU will double down only on the 'buddy cop dynamic' between him and Sam, shafting him out of so many great moments he could be set up for. He has ties to HYDRA, he has ties to Wakanda, he has ties to Sam. One scene I'd always wanted to see was when newer heroes pay respect to Bucky for his service in World War 2 like in the comics. I was hoping they'd show that in Civil War since Bucky was the crux of it but he just kind of got attacked and hunted the entire movie with no interaction bar with Cap or the people hunting him like T'Challa and Tony. He's a character they could do so much with and yet it really does seem like they're about to box him into 'the backup for Sam's Cap' and that's an utter disservice to the character, his legacy in the MCU, his legacy in the comics and Sebastian as an actor. And it's strange because, I know this is anecdotal, but when I speak to people who just watch the MCU for fun and don't too heavily follow it or see videos of the MCU online, so many people share the opinion that Bucky is an awesome character they'd wish to see more of. Yet, as I say, he's all but now been slotted into a supporting role post FATWS. How they quickly did away with his arc ending that had been building since episode 1 said a lot. I pray I'm wrong as Bucky and Sebastian deserve better and so do we as audience members.

At this point he'd probably welcome the world serpent, gladly.

Moon Knight and Iron Heart. No replacement of the original surviving heroes. Just bring in new ones and Iron Heart to develop Iron Man's story. 4. Introduce The Fantastic Four, introduce the future Doctor Doom but don't make him the main villain. In his experiences, Mr Fantastic opens a gateway into the Negative Zone. 5. The hinted villain after the events of Endgame makes his first appearance. Annihilus. 6. Second phase of movies with an Avengers movie fighting of Count Nefaria. 7. In the end of this movie The Fantastic Four arrives and together they defeat Nefaria. Avengers and F4 team up. Annihilus is on his way with a planet scaled invasion. 8. Next set of sequels where a few selected heroes go on asking for help. New GOTG and Captain Marvel sequels. The Nova Corps and Warlock are introduced. 9. Warlock and the Sentry origin stories. 10. Annihilus arrives and an epic battle trilogy of movies commence. 11. Annihilus is defeated, Doctor Doom picks up the Cosmic Control Rod and takes it to Latveria.

Its funny how the Hulk never gets a script that dives into his complex mental issues that come with his powers. One of the Hulk's greatest problems is his own mind. Yet, nobody even tries to understand or really help him. There are so many themes you could play with in a Hulk movie; the struggles of various mental illnesses, dealing with constant abuse, having a condition that socailly isolates you, finding happiness in a world that seems determined to blame you for all it's problems...etc. (Im sure Im missing a few). Reguardless, there are a few arcs I was hoping the Hulk would go through. Planet Hulk was one of them, sure, but there are also a few from bits and bobs I seen brought up before that could benefit from being the subject of a movie. Bringing up the devil Hulk could be pretty cool; Bruce and the Hulk(s?) struggling to prevent a truly evil personality from rising to the surface from within while the world seems determined to put him down while already framing him as a devil...when they truly haven't seen what a devil hulk could do. There was another arc in a cartoon featuring thor that brought up an interesting idea; What happens when you magically try to remove Bruce from the Hulk? Loki attempted to do that in order to mentally drive the Hulk around like a tank, finds out that the murderous rage was almost uncontrollable by anyone other than Bruce and both bad guys and good guys have to join forces to fuse them together again before the mindless Hulk straight up murders everyone. In the end, Thor helps Bruce understand that he is valuable and has heroic qualities, because he is essentually the Hulk's moral compass; what drives the Hulk to struggle against eternal anger and take heroic actions. Anyway, the point is the Hulk can be in a good movie, but the writers would have to be very aware of what they could do with the struggles of the character. Having big CGI punch big CGI isnt really a story in itself, the Hulk and/or Bruce have to change or grow in some way and overcome an internal struggle or debate.

The funniest thing with them making Falcon Capt. America is that he's JUST a dude. He's in great shape but he's just a guy. Nothing really that special about him outside of his fancy government made wings. They even had the chance in his own show for them to get him some super serum which would have at a bare minimum given him the physical ability to be Cap AND if he could take it and still be a good man also show him to be a worthy successor. It's crazy to me how badly they wrote that whole thing. There was the chance to do it correctly RIGHT THERE and they just went "Nah let's just leave him as a normal buff guy who would get his ass kicked mercilessly by every other MCU character." Fucking ANTMAN made him look foolish and he's just some guy.

@@erwannthietart3602 That's the point, it's supposed to be every penny they can. By not making good media they specifically aren't doing that. Most big companies aren't. Aside from reeking of short term thinking, I mean we are already seeing the content stratagem failing. Subs to vod are declining, cinema attendance after being artificially stunted remains down (unless your movie is Spiderman, which would have seen similar numbers if it were not objectively not twidiot crap, we have Strange proof of this) in theory and in past example that should not happen as long as there is good reliable content. Then there's the studio/vod response to this, adding ads, cracking down on password sharing, even more tier complications. The customer, not the content is at fault. None of this will increase profit long term, the second the Netflix bill goes up again, again above the yearly increase people will ask what am I paying for? Amazon are relatively safe, as long as the next day deliveries hold the vod element hostage. That being said next day delivery is not exactly an Amazon exclusive. I have a Netflix sub, my family use it way more than I do. If all of a sudden that price goes up due to password sharing etc why would I keep it. My family will not get subs of their own so lost revenue. It also pretty much invalidates the tier system. Why do I need to be able to stream on five devices otherwise? So all the kids can watch something different? They all watch KZfaq, even toddler content can be found there for free. The reason the subs remained constant or raised was because of convenience, nothing more. So how/why should this motivate movie studios to create better content without twidiotology? Long term profit, I have physical, digital, physical and digital again copies of multiple movies. I have seen some movies at the cinema multiple times. I have not bothered with the cinema since no way home... For new movies, I still go to watch classics that pop up, I have seen The Shining and Batman over ten times each on the big screen. Admittedly I know that's not the majority of people's movie going/owning habits. It is at least indicative and I'm not alone to one extent or another. Long term vs short term.

I don't mind Sam as Cap in principle, coz morals wise and mentality wise, he is just as selfless and brave as Steve is. The issue is he needs to be a super soldier for it to make sense, also he should have never sided with terrorists that kill people to make a point. If they gave him the serum at some point in the series and didn't subvert his values that would have fixed most of the issues i had. I get concerned that people are starting to get reactionary when they see a PoC or woman just existing on screen in a trailer or something and write off the media in question as 'woke' before giving it a chance. I don't like being preached to either and I agree that extreme leftist ideology is just as dangerous as extreme right ideology. I just want there to be some level of open-mindedness.

The avengers is one of those movies that seems to get better the more you watch it. I remember when it first came out people branded it as dumb fun. But the movie has some really great, subtle character moments that you don't really pickup on your first watch, like with that Hulk and black widow scene. Even the quips and the humor felt more like workplace humor and the characters trying to ease the tension of the whole situation. But you could see that they were breaking under the pressure and trying to do their best with what they have. But I guess the studios got the wrong idea from it because now every mcu movie needs to have stupid jokes and quips at inappropriate times. The avengers set up great character moments and stories for the future only for all the potential to be completely squandered.

I had a debate with a wanda stan. I told her that the "They'll never know what you sacrifice for them" line was TRASH and a massive contradiction of what she does in the show. She told me that it's all a matter of "Perspective" and that she suffered like other characters. I thought it was a solid argument, until I realized that it makes 0 sense at all. Even If you look at it from her "perspective", she's STILL a villain who tried to enslave people and tried to murder these people. Also, lemme ask you this; WHAT DID SHE SACRIFICE!? Yeah she sacrificed vision, but it meant nothing. She sacrificed her kids, except that THEY AREN'T REAL!!!! If wanda REALLY wanted her (fake) kids so badly, instead of invading the multiverse, WHY couldn't she just create another HEX and have her bring Back her kids, and VISION but this time in another location where NOBODY is around, especially consideringshe got a "power upgrade" from the dark hold?

You miss the point. Wanda always had one overlying motivation is family. The Twin boys are REAL to Wanda and if someone will go up to her say they ain't. It is not going end well because Wanda is clinically off her proverbial rocker and literally can telepathically change her mind. Wanda Hex power from the show was flawed and the time she didn't have prefect control over it. Meaning unless things were maintained by Wanda directly it starts to fall apart. The further you get away from the epicenter more robotic the West View becomes. Wanda did suffer she lost her Twin brother Pietro and experienced his death. Saw the love of her life die twice in front of her. Lost every member of her family to death. When people are delusional are the delusions are any less real to them. The Psychologist has to get the person to admit that the delusions aren't real. Billy and Tommy are real to Wanda because she wanted the Nuclear Family to focus on instead of her grief and being alone. As for the United States who on Earth can take on the Scarlett Witch. It's not like Wanda doesn't have Reality Warping abilities and control people minds and telekinesis. Theoretically she is on par Dr Strange. Declaring Wanda a War Criminal is one thing but doing something about is something else.

Okay everyone tell me if you agree with this: Hulk is the most wasted and destroyed character in the MCU, and Endgame was the final Nail in the Coffin. I am willing to bet everyone who watched Endgame, was waiting the entire movie to see the Hulk Rematch Thanos. This was the most set up thing in the entire series, Infinity war laid the groundwork for what would ultimately be the most satisfying, and defining moment for both the Hulk, and the franchise as a whole. The stage was set, everyone in the theater was ready, we were all waiting. The Incredible Hulk, Going toe to toe with Thanos for a second time, this time to settle the score. Two Juggernauts, trading Punches and Blows, a battle of the Strongest. Seeing this alone would have made the entire movie. So we watched, and when the time came to see all the original main series Avengers Face off against Thanos in that Final Climactic Battle, we were on the edge of our seats. This was it. First Cap grabs Mjolnir, the crowd erupts! Then he smashes Thanos while Iron Man Comes in for the follow up! Then Thor Flies in with this Storm breaker and the crowd is going wild!!! This was it!!! First Cap, Then Iron Man, Then Thor, and now The Incredible Hulk was going to Smash In!!! Right Here we were ready to see These two Titans of Strength square off in this very moment!!! And yet.... It never happened, the Hulk pretty much never showed up again. And that's how the story ends. Hulk Fans leave the theaters in shambles, utterly broken and defeated.

I experience enough realism in reality. If they want to tell new stories in the comic world, they are welcome to think up NEW heroes. But what was special about the old comics was that they reliably stayed the same. Just like I don't need a new interpretation of James Bond either. They should come up with a new agent story instead of twisting and distorting the old one. But that would really require creativity instead of reheating the old coffee.

The only way to truly restore him is for him to kill Gorr without any outside interference, go and tell Valkyrie that she's a piece of shit slaver who doesn't deserve to rule Asgard, tell Jane to fuck off and that he doesn't need her anymore, tell the Guardians to fuck off since he's a God and has no business being with mortals, rightfully reclaim his throne and rebuild Asgard on a far, distant planet where he will rule as a wise and mature King.

I don't think Hulk was afraid of her in that scene. I think he just didn't want her breaking his stuff. But overall I agree. This is going to be character assassination. They're gonna knock Hulk down in order to prop her up. She's immediately going to be better than him at everything for no reason other than Girl Power.

Im at the point with the MCU where I am with Star Wars. I have realized I am far more of an authority of what the MCU is and isn't than the people currently running the show. So I will decide what is and isn't MCU. It's rather obvious. Just like with Star Wars. Anything that fails to capture the essence of what these are and have always been about is non canon. It's that simple.

For me, all of the MCU films from Iron Man to Avengers: Endgame (skipping Captain Marvel) are the equivalent to watching Star Wars’ movies from The Phantom Menace to Return of the Jedi. After those installments, both respective franchises have adequate closure to their main storylines, and I consider everything else to be optional add-ons. Regarding any add-ons to the MCU and Star Wars which I did enjoy, I will include them as part of my experience. For the MCU, I personally would also include content like Daredevil, Jessica Jones, the Tom Holland Spider-Man sequels, and Shang-Chi (mainly because I finally got the payoff of seeing an MCU’s Mandarin portrayal I liked). For Star Wars, that would be the 2D Clone Wars micro-series, the 3D Clone Wars series, Rogue One, and Seasons 1+2 of The Mandalorian. As for everything else, I either have not seen them or simply reject them, like the Star Wars sequels.

As a very old man I remember when Marvel changed the comic world. Fantastic Four, Spider Man, Iron Man, Hulk etc, all different, but all in some way flawed real people as well as super heros. They weren't copies they were all originals, they weren't perfect, some even found themselves unloved and unpopular instead of hailed as heros. The problem now is that they (i cant call them creators, they dont create anything) cannot accept that a female hero can be flawed, and seem unable to create anything original. We can agree 70's hero's were "a bit" over represented by men, but the solution is to create female heros just as unique as those "toxic" male heros.

I haven't felt the need to watch a marvel film since End Game. When I've come upon it because someone puts it on TV, I've sat through a bit or all of them. And, there is a big change in their tone and what's going on. Marvel / Disney and their leaders often seem to pride themselves on making the most successful film series of all time, but what will be studied --- once the crazy is out of the water in Hollywood--- won't be how they got there, and not even how they let it slip away as all fame does over time, but how they started the fire then contuined to kindle the flame and dose it in oil at every opportunity they had. Most industry and franchises fizzle out over time but Disney has burned their money printing machine to the ground. I look forward to the day when some company buys out Marvel for whatever it's worth and doesn't even bother putting some of these films on their streaming service, worried it'll spoil whatever following there is left.

Thor and Hulk definitely got the short straw. Their characters aren't treated with respect anymore. One has witnessed everything he loves being torn from him and the other can't even trust his own mind. I don't think people realize how traumatizing it would be for a person to live with a constant rage monster in their head -- Bruce can't trust himself to express his emotions in a healthy way, his social life is effectively dead, and he has to constantly be aware of things that could possibly trigger him. I found his character in the first Avengers movie to be extremely fascinating. Mark Ruffalo did a brilliant job of portraying an intelligent, seemingly harmless man whose nervous energy reveals something much darker warring beneath the surface. Turning Hulk into a joke is like turning someone who is suffering from schizophrenia or severe bipolar disorder into a joke. Turning Thor into a joke is like turning a alcoholic war veteran struggling with depression and PTSD into a joke. This isn't just insensitive, it can be harmful. In this instance, making them into a joke is the same as saying that these characters don't matter, and because they don't matter, neither do their problems. Either don't include these issues at all or treat them with the respect they deserve and give the audience the engaging, empathetic character arcs they want to see.

Both of their stories are a lot darker than Wanda's, yet now, both are treated as jokes. lol To the MCU writers, the only sympathetic characters are grieving women, not a man who's literally a ticking time bomb. And yet, none of these characters have the luxury of reality-warping powers to change their lives. If they had, they will just simply use them to fix themselves, not harm others.

For me, Phase 3 of the MCU is where things started seriously falling apart. Phase 1 put together the Avengers and the idea that there were bigger things out there. Phase 2 gave us the Infinity Stones and showed us the greater threats out there. Phase 3 was really a collective mess that was only overlooked thanks to Infinity War and Endgame tying things up from Phase 1 and Phase 2. But Phase 4 has more entries than Phase 1 and Phase 2 combined and is going nowhere twice as fast.

@@saisameer8771 There isn't one yet. But the funny thing is that you don't need one. You just need something in common to push the movies together towards a similar directions. You could argue Phase 1 had Loki as the main villain since he's in 2 of the 6 movies. But, he's not responsible for the machinations in the other movies, so he can't really be considered a main villain. Phase 2 did not have a recurring villain at all. Phase 3 had Thanos only in Infinity War and Endgame, but he didn't appear in the others. 2 out of 11 movies makes it hard to treat him as a main villain.

In the comics The White Wolf (Hunter) is T'Challa's adopted brother. The White Wolf in the comics, from my research, starts out loving Wakanda and was the head of the secret police. He and T'Challa come to blows and Hunter becomes a villian. So, there's a negative connotation with that moniker. The concern with the White Wolf moniker is that they could turn Bucky back into a villian in the MCU if they continue having him use the moniker. I would hate that because it would be a regression of his character. I'd rather he take the Winter Soldier moniker and try to do something positive with it.

Edward Norton Hulk does the Hulk Smash Gamma wave, The Thunderclap, and he even uses the two cars as boxing gloves during his fight with Abomination. 2012 avengers Hulk was good, but not as good as 2008 Hulk. It all went down from there. They could have seriously redeemed him by giving him his rematch with Thanos, and of course having him win, but they didn't do it for some reason.

Best Cap storylines are when Bucky is using each day to prove he isnt TWS. Falcon being Cap doesnt make sense... he isnt super. SO how in the world is he throwing the shield the way he was? Honestly, I think they should kill Sam. Show how unprepared he was for the ever-evolving danger of the world. He's just a normal guy so he shouldnt be able to take anywhere near the same damage that Buck, Steve, and John could.

Because SONY has an impeccable record in successful serious dramatic superhero films: Amazing Spiderman, Venoms, Morbius, etc.? Now let's look at the of 2008 superhero movies with their costs & returns. - Iron Man (MAY) cost $140m took $590m - Incredible Hulk (JUNE) cost $150m took $260m - The Dark Knight (JULY) cost $180m took over $1b. A film needs 2.5x budget to make a profit. Disney made money with Iron Man. Warner made money with Batman. SONY lost money on Incredible Hulk. But you expect Disney to give up a profitable, popular film to go for an unprofitable, niche audience?

Capt. would have never gave up the shield willingly. His main phrase throughout the MCU was "I can do this all day". They destroyed his ark by him abandoning his friend Bucky who desperately could have used Capts help being he is still a broken man and needs him now more than everw. Any rational person should assume if Thanos existed, there must be other great threats in the universe and don't even get me started on the state the world would be in after 3.5 billion people suddenly just reappeared. Capt already showed several times he was willing to die for his friends and to save lives. His first movie he gave up the girl for this pursuit. Suddenly he abandons everything he stood for through a decade of films? Steve Rogers send off was completely against his character.
