Even if they do decide to go dark and gritty and kill off a few main characters, they went so deep down the multiverse rabbit hole that it doesn’t seem possible for anything they write to have consequences ever again
I also agree, some of these movies get so fucking epic that I just don’t care. I miss the human drama that takes place in a lower scale.
Not that infinity war wasn’t fun, mind. But now it’s not even enough to just fight for the world, but we have to fight for the multiverse!
I’m sure Doomsday will be good because the Russo brothers have made all of the best marvel movies, but it feels a bit “y’all haven’t liked shit since we killed everyone off, so here they are again.”
But post-infinity war I’ve basically only enjoyed the TV shows. Thunderbirds was pretty good. FF was… fine? Compared to previous FF movies, it was great. But it didn’t land for a lot of people.
But Hawkeye was good. I really enjoyed Ms. Marvel. Echo was a decent spinoff. Looking forward to new installments of the Defenders characters now that the marvel Netflix people are largely back. Shit, I’ll even be interested to see if they can make the Finn Jones Iron Fist work this time. But Colleen Wing was the best part of that show and I hear she isn’t coming back. And the Falcon and the Winter Soldier was so much better than the Captain America movie.
Anyway the TV shows all have a limited scale and it gave them so much more heart.
Marvel / DC super hero movies are boring besides some of the jokes. Every main character is basically invincible, fights are pointless.

Except for those who died, I guess?
Scnr 😁
But Actually, that’s what I found to be a good thing: letting characters leave, finishing their story. Captain America, scarlet witch.
My hot take is I still watch the series of movies in hope for good stuff but most has passed.
One guy wrote a very true thing: when was the last time superheroes actually saved someone like they originally did.
Superman did, but it’s fair criticism for marvel.
