bit more to it than that.
just like every Spiderman origin story movie is "Uncle Ben died because I was a cock and didnt use my radioactive spider powers". They just skipped it for the new one from what I've heard
and theyre just formulaic at this point
The spiderman PS4 game did a pretty funny nod to the sam raimi movies
I tried to watch Dr Strange for instance, then went "Oh okay, I know the 2 new things they'll show here" and left the room
At one point you're on an out of control subway train and he goes to the front and starts doing the thing from spiderman 2 where he webs up the walls and trys to hold on, but the webs all just snaps and he's like "I was so sure that would work"
wew
but yeah I think DC needs to do what Marvel was forced to do. Leave the biggest names out, work with the next level down or lower
they just need to not get caught in a formula, like Marvel also did
Shazam is actually a good move. It looks pleasant
I *might* actually watch it
marvel put in the time to build the characters
I wonder if Marvel using the superheroes that normies are less familiar with like Thor and Ironman helped them out. Like if it helped audiences get over the stigma of 'ewww nerdy superheroes'
well I mean people watched Thor for cheesecake
lets be real here
To be fair there wasn't much else going for the first movie.
but I think people enjoy at least the superificial difference of having a lesser known, more obscure character show up
MCU doesn't have the rights to my favorite guys, Magneto and Dr Doom
So I don't watch
didnt they buy Fox's shit?
idk, some ppl watched thor just to see how different it was...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCQug0FEvZ0
They bought Fox's entertainment stuff yeah.
All the X-men movie rights are Sony though, but they've been teaming up with them more
They should just make the X-people with characters like "Tazmanian Devil"
how were the X-Men movie rights Sony's if Fox was the distributor?
like the whole point behind buying Fox was getting X-Men and Fantastic Four (so they can stop being blown up in the comics :^) )
ya i thought spiderman was sony, xmen were fox
Oh yeah, I was wrong on that one
Also they can start putting the X-men on their merch
Like they were selling shirts of iconic comic covers in Target or whatever and removing the X-men from them
I'm genuinely disappointed that they didnt try to milk Civil War and actually do the whole thing
granted, they would have fucked it up
but it wouldnt have been dudes in suits on a runway
I mean they could actually do a better job of it now, since they have access to everyone finally
but they blew the name on Cap3
They did a better job at making Iron Man appear sympathetic though
In the movie than in the comic
hopefully they don't fuck up Avengers vs Xmen
When are they making a Marvel vs Capcom movie
when they can make a good game again
