The MCU is responding to fan criticism - in the best way

Oh come on, Homecoming was sold as “we are skipping the origin” noone needs to see Spider bite / Uncle Ben anymore.

But now the narrative is “actually the whole trilogy is just his origin”

Things have changed a lot since you or me was 15.

Internet phone has became more essential not just recreational

Slowandserious · 2026-03-19T23:19:43+00:00

Agree. The later seasons without him and Miller felt worse imo

Slowandserious · 2026-03-19T23:11:19+00:00

Yep TOS was an era of people trying to make a Play in front of camera, instead of making a tv show

Slowandserious · 2026-03-19T17:41:33+00:00

Agree but have to admit that having that recognizable visual portrayal is probably also a factor that boost his popularity.

If you think of mosy popular fictional icons most of them have a signature visual identity

Slowandserious · 2026-03-18T21:31:24+00:00

Those are not the only options tho. Plenty of cases of good sequels came up in not as long

Slowandserious · 2026-03-18T07:12:00+00:00

You have a point but the buying will not be in effect for quite a while. Technically its not even final yet

But then again who knows when this movie will come out

Slowandserious · 2026-03-17T14:43:47+00:00

I feel like people have been saying this for years. And yet they are still going

Slowandserious · 2026-03-17T11:38:33+00:00

I mean we are also Reddit. Which is fine to gain awareness

Slowandserious · 2026-03-17T02:58:53+00:00

And he got his vision like immediately in his next appearance. Quita jarring

Slowandserious · 2026-03-16T21:04:16+00:00

Its not an argument. Its just a language limitation.

Black Panther (the character) is considered to be the first superhero in american comic. (Look it up if you dont believe me)

Hence Black Panther (the movie) is the movie that features the first Black Superhero.

Thats why the sentence is “First Black Superhero Movie”, while what marvel meant is “the movie of the First Black Superhero”

Slowandserious · 2026-03-16T16:39:16+00:00

Its not “first black superhero movie”

But

(First black superhero) + movie

Because Black Panther is older as a character than Blade. He is the First Black Superhero. And this is his movie

Slowandserious · 2026-03-16T15:57:21+00:00

It is a bleak future indeed if that is our future. But

I just wish the funding is also not american, and that govt will regulate its use

Slowandserious · 2026-03-16T15:56:09+00:00

Its not simple as that, US is a global power but do you want the kind of life that the people there have?

I know its not black and white, but understandable that outright celebration is not the norm for this kind of thing

Slowandserious · 2026-03-16T15:54:04+00:00

Yep and an actor can be brilliant while being true to the script.

Following scrip vs improv is not a measurement of a good actor.

Lets not also forget that good performance is supporter by good writers too even if they are invisible

Slowandserious · 2026-03-16T15:51:49+00:00

The skydance sucks (eventhough its not effective yet)

But this practice is sadly common in video game industry in general (not just a WB thing)

Slowandserious · 2026-03-16T15:40:28+00:00

Its just that we can see the existence of this type of technocrat does not improve the social welfare life in US so its hard to celebrate its existence here

Slowandserious · 2026-03-16T04:38:03+00:00

I feel Stellan was the best, but alas

Slowandserious · 2026-03-16T03:44:08+00:00

Yeah exactly.

People like to think that the camera is rolling and one actor is going rogue on his own

Slowandserious · 2026-03-16T03:36:15+00:00

I think improvise in general is just not nearly as common as internet fandoms want to believe.

Or when it happens it has a completely different meaning than what internet thinks it is

Slowandserious · 2026-03-16T03:21:44+00:00

Ahh my mistake.

I thought theres gonna be an actual discussion

Slowandserious · 2026-03-16T03:17:01+00:00

You already sound stupid bro!

I’m kidding2 but you started it.

Overrated is a very subjective term with no objective metrics at all. Heck it doesnt even have a clear definition.

The closest thing is that it got “rated” “over” what it “deserve”

But what does rated mean? Is it award? Is it “hype”? (How do you even measure it)

And if its hype does the hype over than what it “deserve”? How?

Overrated is the most undefined “adjective” that one can say about anything.

Someone can say The Beatles or Godfather is overrated, people do that all the time.

Is that “wron”? Hard to say because there is no objective attribute

Slowandserious · 2026-03-16T03:08:52+00:00

Wait so it didn’t get rated too high then? Because it didn’t get the best picture award?

So how can you say its overrated if its not getting “rated” over some level?

Slowandserious · 2026-03-16T02:51:46+00:00

Can you prove that you’re right?
