Let's be real, the M-She-U would be fine if the people involved were (a) attractive and (b) had emotionally compelling character arcs. The problem is... they don't.

https://people.com/movies/letitia-wright-moved-on-from-vaccine-controversy-i-have-apologized/ She backed down and disowned her posts on the topic, but she pointedly refused to answer whether or not she'd actually taken any COVID vaccines. Anyway, it barely gets talked about because (1) she's a...

This, essentially. Honestly, I think the reality is that, with the way streaming is being broken up, and the realities of entertainment today - I think a movie franchise holding the global zeitgeist as long as the MCU has is barely possible. It wouldn't even have mattered if everything was up...

I don't think its dying - its just no longer the star that it was. Its a cash cow now, to be milked as much as possible, and Disney recognizes that. Disney treats IPs the same way as they treat regular businesses - once they are on the decline, they are to be milked as much as possible, no need...

The fact that Knowhere was in there as well makes me suspect even more that some inspiration was taken from the games.

Thank you for your review, @prinCZess I'll probably skip. I mean, it sounds like it's a great Rocket Raccoon movie, not necessarily a very good GOTG movie, which is kinda what I'm more interested in. Honestly I think they used Adam Warlock because people would be familiar with him from the...

Eh, RDJ was the biggest paid Marvel character by a lot*, and I don't think its entirely a coincidence that I haven't really been into Marvel since the death of Iron Man. * His pay was literally a double digit percentage of every Avengers movie budget. Avengers: $45 mil Age of Ultron: $80 mil...

I feel like that was always kinda obvious, though. I mean, paying someone $4.5 million for what is ultimately a fairly minor role seems a bit excessive for Howard, who while a successful actor is not really a household name.

I can't take Don Cheadle seriously as a superhero or as the main lead of a Marvel movie. Maybe he'll grow into it. Ultron was one of my favorite Marvel villains, but I'm not really into Marvel anymore anyway. I'm more excited about the Spider-man 2 game (and even more excited about the...

And he needed a second movie that focused on him more than Scarlet Witch.

Does not compute. There were tons of warning signs that Eternals was gonna be a terrible wokefest.

This isn't a surprise. China fundamentally does NOT want its citizens funneling Chinese capital to the American entertainment industry, and I think that's something Hollywood execs simply do not understand. Piracy of American shows is also so freely done in China that people who want to watch...

I sympathize with Scarlet Johansson, actually, as much as I can sympathize with someone that wealthy getting paid that much. Disney basically screwed her out of tens of millions at what's probably nearing the end of her career. It's like nearing the 20 year pension mark, then your employer...

Captain Marvel was a bad Marvel movie, but just mediocre overall. Here's an imporant point to remember: "bad movie" is relative. Shyamalan's "Signs" might be a mediocre movie per se, but if you put it next to a random sampling of any given years indie horror flicks, you'll find it looking real...
