I've never seen a franchise make so much money while being embarrassed of the source material.

It's called introducing/enticing to something. Which is market analysis. The good about the recent Superhero movies is that, people might, and I say MIGHT with a higher probability, to read the comics. I wanna see Jimmy who doesn't know anything about Spider-Man but loves the MCU version to read the last decade of comics, and be destroyed internally.
The humour in these films stems from insecurity with regards to the source material. This same insecurity leads to the writers forcing themselves to fill any silence with quips and make sure that they make fun of something before the audience does so that they remain in control. They are afraid to let a moment breathe, without satire, for fear of making an audience uncomfortable.
In fact the humour in Marvel films is very obviously wish-fulfilment on the part of the viewer by way of the writer. The jokes do not come naturally from the character, but are rather the jokes that a passive third-party observer would make about the situation if he believed himself to be 'witty'.
They took the wrong lessons from Iron Man. Tony Stark was a jokey guy but ultimately, in the first movie, the humor went away when the story needed it to.
>They took the wrong lessons from Iron Man
Things really shifted after Age of Ultron and GotG
I'd say as far back as Avengers 1
That was the first one I walked out of unhappy with
*ahem*
yawn
That's my reaction to these movies.
I think at lest till endgame it wasn't really embarrassed of it.
All three of the Thor movies before endgame reek of insecurity. Lot of costume designs like Vision, Wanda, and Gamora are shitty because they didn't want to commit to their source.
I concede that Thor's character was trash, true.
Yeah his character and the whole mythology behind the Asgardians was terrible. Not to mention how hard all his supporting characters got shafted. Have Beta ray Bill or Baldur ever even been referenced in those movies?
>All three of the Thor movies before endgame reek of insecurity
First one wasn't that bad
Don't like how people notice the utter lack of sincerity in MCU movies?
>first one wasn't that bad
I actually agree, but public consensus will never acknowledge that with how many people like Ragnarok.
I liked Vision, Wanda, and Gamora’s design.
Embarrassment is still slightly better than active disdain
Spiderverse is far more respectful to the source material than the MCU
The absolute worst its deviated was Ben Reilly being a 90s edgeboi comic relief which isn’t true aside from his first few outings. The most offensive thing the movie’s really done is break canon by having Peter be married to MJ and have a living daughter and be happy, Editorial could never.
"no"
"yes"
because he said that it's more respectful to the source material than the MCU, not that it was completely respectful to the source material
But the MCU doesn't hate most of its characters, it's just embarrassed of them
Well, tasting better than fences doesn't make a thing a masterpiece.
and then there`s DCEU
shitstorm but at least the designs are nice
>so much money
Anon, Disney has been cooking the books, they're being prosecuted for it the numbers presented aren't the real ones and most of the MCU movies haven't made any profit.
