What used to be Marvel’s greatest strength has become its greatest weakness. In the first years of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, movies and storylines built on each other. Audiences loved that they knew the backstory for all the characters.
But now the MCU has been going for about 20 years it has built up and enormous amount of content. Enjoying a new Marvel movie now requires pre-watching several others, and probably a TV series or two. It’s gotten overwhelming for anyone but hard-core fans. One way to put it is that watching anything from Marvel requires homework.
You so nailed it here! Creativity seems to have stopped with superheroes, ghouls and boring extention of shop worn series that g o on and on and on. I’m waiting

The studio hasn’t run of new material. They’ve run out of good ideas of how to adapt what they’ve got.

I was once actually applauded by a bystander for parallel parking our minivan in a very tight space in one try.

Multiple universes, time travel and increasingly louder explosions simply aren’t cutting it anymore. :)

With Stan Lee gone, I can see why you’ve run out of material…

60+ years of comic books and they’ve already made movies of all of them?

Take it! Grab your 15 minutes of fame, but be sure to squirrel away your bankroll!
