Hmm.....maybe we should talk about Secret Wars and see if that doesn't make a huge hit? Sure we want to see Marvel split into three people with quirky outtakes and cats that are aliens. But watching the Wrecking Crew take on the X-Men and Ultron fight Thor with Dr. Doom and Ultron facing off against Cap and the Fantastic 4 and Venom being born.....nah. They are making it now, but it looks like they are going a different direction than the comic.

Who asked for this? I also heard they are reshooting the next Capt America, which was almost complete and now moved from 2024 to 2025, to take out a new hero called Sabra, a zionist superhero who works for the Mossad (I am not kidding.) Gosh, I wonder why. Who green-lit this?

This movie was already catching heat because they went with Black Falcon as their next Capt America, instead of, or I don't know, rebooting Steve Rodgers, the original Capt from decades of comics. This is why we can't have nice things.

It was actually a really fun film

I think people over estimate the Marvel brand. You can't just keep unearthing dozens and dozens of niche characters and comics and expect them all to have an established fan base.

Think, Disney.

Ironman? Yeah no shit. It's fucking Ironman.

Thor? Duh

Hulk? Yes, but get it right.

Antman? Pushing it but yeah he dope.

Captian America? Might as well said superman.

Gaurdians? Wonderful.

Captain Marvel. You lost me.

Eternals? ...

It's no mystery as to why not every franchise is going to be a hit. Just think about it.
