I so wanted to give you a thumbs up - but couldn’t since you dissed one of my favorite. The Incredible Hulk!

Kinda strange comparison Previous Godzilla movies were made for kids, and Japan really didn’t have a strategy for US releases. In fact, Minus One was supposed to follow their usual strategy of a very limited release. Once it blew up - they extended how long and how many theaters it would play in. Regardless, it doesn’t take away the fact that they were able to put out a huge hit on a modest budget.

That could be the reason, especially with Kamala being one of the main characters.

And I won’t watch those episodes either. If I want to watch a musical, that’s what I will watch. That goofy scene may have been fine too you, but it wasn’t to me. Which is why I turned it off and moved on to something else. We not all gonna like the same things.

I wouldn’t know. In a universe with superheroes, gods, monster and powers - the idea of a planet that sings everything was something I just wasn’t willing to accept or suspend disbelief for.

Sorry, a little confused. Is this your 10 favorite?

I still thought movie Namor was great, and was hoping he would become more of a threat in the MCU. At the time, I didn’t mind that they weren’t recasting T’Challa. I thought it was the respectful thing to do because I thought that was it for the character. Now that I know they plan to continue using Black Panther, my opinion has changed and TChalla should have been recast for the sequel.

Guess I’m one of the few who really liked Quantumania. For me, the 2nd Antman movie was the worst of the trilogy. The story behind Eternals is so weird. Apparently they showed a pre screen to Marvel employees who heaped more praise on this movie, than any other movie in history. Supposedly the execs were already celebrating the awards the movie would receive, and were horrified with the results once it was released. Slightly out of touch? The Marvels. I sat watching it thinking “this is no where near as bad a movie as people were claiming”. Then the singing/dancing planet happened, and I turned that crap off - only the 2nd Marvel movie I had ever stopped watching mid movie (Eternals was the first). My only complaint about Wakanda Forever, is that Shuri looked horrible once suited up. She looked as if she had the frame of a 13yr old girl - which made it laughable to me. Other than that, I really enjoyed the movie and thought Namor was an awesome “villain”

I think people were willing to overlook those movies because they knew the MCU was building towards something. Since Endgame, they’ve been all over the place. Sure they said they were building towards Kang - but then they started jobbing him out. Then we got mixed messages. No Kang. Oh wait, yes Kang. Just kidding, No Kang. Next they start bringing back the old gang, which makes it seem like they are just throwing crap at the wall to see what sticks.

S Korea has been showing for years that action movies could be made for much smaller budgets. Hell, look what Japan showed could be done with Godzilla Minus One and that small budget (small compared to Hollywood).

It is weird, but as someone alluded to earlier - we know what they are capable of, story and quality wise. It’s been a while since we’ve gotten that, so now I think people are at the point that we are hoping they hit rock bottom. That way they will hopefully get back to what they once were.

I only posted that because for some weird reason, you crawled out onto that limb and I couldn’t resist.

Why does it matter? Everyone has an opinion. Some people like to express it, while others prefer to keep it to themselves. Neither is wright or wrong.
