What are some examples of when the filmmakers went "here you go you fricking nerds" and gave a cheap piece of fan service that was just there for you to point and do the basedface?

All of them.
whenever the MCU mentions the original costumes and the characters go "wouldn't it be just RIDICULOUS if I wore this?!? glad i'm wearing my cool as frick tacticool suit instead"
>looks at camera
>winks
What are some instances of this? Off the top of my head, I just remember Wanda from her show
Xmen did that

Some people say Captain America kinda did it by making his first outfit in his first movie look like shit, but I think it looks pretty good
Nah, it's a story reason and a good one at that.
It's a-ok.
It sort of blew up in their faces because people liked it, but it was meant to be goofy. Cloth instead of scales, the wings are limp and floppy
It was meant to appear slightly shitty like the old movie serial costumes
Don't see the issue people have with this suit. It basically looks like an Alex Ross design, albeit the actor wasn't in his mid-40s at the time.
I only remember it from the first X-men movie.
Video game adaptations seemed to go extremely hard on this approach until very recently. The DOOM first person scene, Resident Evil movies would have entire moments from the games just ripped from their original contexts, the only one where it felt like they were passionate was the original Mortal Kombat movie's Johnny Cage nut punching scene.
Weirdest case was Street Fighter where the director/script writer actually was passionate but the studio wanted to save all the crazy powers for a sequel and the result was we got less flashy versions of physical moves from the game and one hadouken
>Street Fighter where the director/script writer actually was passionate
Steven de Souza didn't give a shit and said he made up the plot 10 min before he went in to pitch it.
I read somewhere that for No Way Home Feige told Charlie Cox to wait a few moments after he entered his first scene before delivering his lines like a fricking sitcom because he was worried the initial audience reaction would drown out his dialogue

Almost the entirety of the DCEU aside from the Aquaman movies and the first Shazam.
Whedon Justice League using the Burton Theme. Came out of nowhere and did not fit the movie at all.
Don't forget using the Williams Superman theme too.
I absolutely fricking hated No Way Home cause the whole movie was
>REMEMBER THIS?
>HAHA REMEMBER WHEN HE SAID HE WAS A SCIENTIST
>HAHA THE POWER OF THE SUN
Anytime they recreate iconic poses or moments that didn't happen on screen and plaster it in newspapers or graffiti it on walls.
First five minutes of Bumblebee.
Yeah, I liked it, that doesn't mean I'm not aware of what it was and how it was added in post.
It felt like a lot of the classic Supergirl references in Tom King's WoT were like this.
I haven’t read it
Does he mention her horse trying to frick her
No but Comet does show up
Gotham's finale is that
I was actually willing to give Leto Joker the benefit of the doubt because they showed this scene in trailers.
Joke's on me, honka honka honka.
I hate Taika Watiti.
Maybe some costumes don't translate 1:1. I'm just saying
Obviously but you can make faithful costumes with high quality materials without overdesigning them, muting the colors, or removing features like masks or helmets because they obstruct the actor's faces. Hollywood just refuses to do so because they think they're better than what they're working with.
Yeah but a lot of times when they do do that, the materials used have guys yell "MUH LINES!!" for dumb reasons
Exactly what I'm getting at. They're making it harder on themselves when people really just want simple faithful designs. You can modernize a design but don't overthink it or be ashamed of the source material.
Flat colors good on paper, but not always in real life. Example; Movie Ant-Man looks fricking great
Flat colors just means no shading. These aren't drawings. It's real life. They're bright colors. Superheroes should be bright.
It's definitely not a new thing. People were stunned that 2002 Spider-Man actually had a well adapted costume that genuinely looked like comic Spider-Man. Everyone was expecting some kind of stylized black leather, which is what every hero got no matter what in the 90s.
>removing features like masks or helmets because they obstruct the actor's faces
These motherfrickers do that even in cartoons and games lol.
It's pretty clear almost everything MCU is designed by one guy or one team, and has been that way since Age of Ultron. There is not even an attempt to make a costume on someone from space look different from someone from a suburb, and someone from another country that made their suit on their own. Everyone has the same lines, same burgundy, fur green, and blue black colors. Same details on the upper legs, and everyone's mask flips off the same way each time they have something to say.
Reddit the movie
I actually really love what the Deadpool movies do with comic designs. They're adapted tastefully.
Although it almost seems like it wound up being more for Joss' satisfaction than the audience
it wasn't even Whedon's idea, it was Johns'
I'm saying the whole behind the scenes drama over getting Fisher to actually say the line happened with Joss, and was joking that it wound up being more memorable for him than anyone else
Here's hoping that every recent capeshit movie being a critical and commercial flop means that capeshit movies will finally go away
I'll take cheap fanservice over overcomplicated fanservice
I think almost every superhero movie has some kind of example of this.
