You obviously didn't understand the write up. It was clearly stated that Sony are the creative producers, but are deferring creatively to marvel.
Go back and read my post c-a-r-e-f-u-l-l-y. I have not disagreed with you in anyway. However read this:

https://vocal.media/geeks/just-who-has-creative-control-of-spider-man

Sony indeed have FINAL creative control. FINAL greenlight authority (which i said in my last post). Disney/Marvel however handle the casting, script etc. It's like doing your assignment and submitting to the teacher for approval.

I can't say about others, but i knew that Nick fury was going to show up in IW.
I said Iron Man 1, not IW

Well, we will see at the end
OK. All franchises have a formula. Still don't see how its a big deal when it comes to the MCU. Take Indiana Jones for instance: puzzle solving, villain being killed by the film's main artifact etc

I am exhibiting selective bias, there is no denying it. Just like many people love some certain iteration of a comic character, the MCU version of the hulk to me and my folks is way lower in standard compared to the animations.
Good for you. I'm all for subjectivity. The problem however arises when people mistake their subjective opinions for facts.

Which brings me to point i'm trying to make: Disney destroyed Hulk, Spiderman, Drax etc FOR YOU.

Blackspider:
The one's I have read, the animations I have seen are different from the live action adaptation
1. Comics are the source material. Animations are adaptations therefore they don't count
2. You do realize that there have been tons of Hulk iterations by various comic writers in the past 50+ years (earths 616, 1610 etc). Each with his own personality. Given your low interest in Hulk comics, how certain are you that you're not exhibiting selection bias?

Sony retains creative control over spiderman movies NOT disney. You can check out the attachment. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spider-Man:_Homecoming
LoL! The same wiki you linked goes on to state that the Sony head honchos have FINAL greenlight authority over the films and defer creativity to Marvel. We can reconcile this one of two ways
1. There's a contradiction
2. You didn't fully understand what you read on the page.


And it was getting predictable because we all knew that Nick fury will appear at a point.
Most people didn't know actually. There's a reason that post-credits scene is one of the MCU's best.


There is nothing wrong with humour, and i undersatnd MCU needs humour to keep fans happy, but making everything a joke or humorous is an issue.
The formula works for Feige and the lot so clearly its not as big an issue as it may seem to you

The ones that doesn't bore the hell out of me and I can tell you, they aren't that much grin grin grin
I guess that answers the question then. You're clearly not a fan of the Hulk. But if that's the case, how then do you judge his portrayal in the movies as being bad if you're not too familiar with the source materials?

TheKingIsHere:
Your comparison didn't irk me rather it disappointed me. You can't be comparing oranges to apple and vice versa.
OK. If you say so.

This is as a result of Sony's idea NOT Disney. Disney rarely do such
I'm pretty sure the 2015 contract required that Disney had FULL creative control over Spiderman films in the MCU while Sony handled distribution. Do you have evidence that a Sony executive initiated that plot twist?

Anyways, what of Nick Fury's appearance at the end of Iron Man? Or Thanos at the end of Avengers 1?

I am glad you agree that it is a recurring feature. When something/feature reoccurs, it is also know to be repetitious which still means monotonous and buttress what I have been saying
I still fail to see how any of this is bad though. Humor is a very trivial detail in MCU films. If anything, it has only kept fans more engaged with the subtle references, easter eggs and whatnot.

Wow, comparing a CBM about an enhanced soldier to a CBM about children with superpowers.
My apologies if the comparison irked you. I'm just bored of every Joe talking about the "MCU" and I'm just wondering what the "DCEU" has done that makes it any more better.


The MCU phase 1 was not a major risk
Like I said, you have to define risk. Marvel in 2008 had only their unknowns to make movies with. Just look up on the history of the first Iron Man. Not to mention RDJ was one of the most derided actors at the time.

being monotonous is no strength as overtime people already know what to expect.
Homecoming wasn't much different tonally from other MCU films. But no expected the Vulture to turn out as Liz's dad.

At the end the so called spy, space adventure, war movie ended up being comedic.
So? That's just a recurring feature. It's still different genres or inspirations.

I also know those that disliked him in Ragnarok and if you think that portrayal was good, then maybe I don't know undecided
Out of curiousity, how many Hulk comics have you read?
TV/MoviesRe: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by Vic2Ree(m): 12:15pm On Oct 14, 2019
Blackspider:
Everyone complained at how hulk was portrayed I Ragnarok. They completely made him look stupid, even Endgame had the same hulk problem.

Disney has successfully destroyed Drax, Thor, hulk, Thanos, Spider-Man, Loki etc
This is not even remotely true. LoL.

As for the Hulk thing, i know many peeps both IRL and on the internet that loved his portrayal in Ragnarok especially. Couldn't that just be proof of differing tastes and expectations from movies? Quit talking in absolutes.

TheKingIsHere:
MCU movies are now a juggernaut but they are too childish
I guess Winter Soldier did not just have the complexity and maturity of Shazam

Disney on the other hand doesn't want to take risk and do things that are innovative and different.
Define risk. MCU Phase 1 was a risk. AntMan was a risk. GOTG likewise.

the MCU style is now getting too monotonous
I think Infinity War proves that being "monotonous" can be a strength more than a weakness. Otherwise, it should have flopped tonewise if all the characters being juggled were all tonally abstract from each other. See BVS for reference.

In as much as the MCU has a formula, i could still argue that,

First Avenger= war movie

Ant Man= heist movie (like Ocean's Eleven)

Winter Soldier= Bourne-esque spy film

Guardians= space adventure (like Star wars)

MCU movies in my opinion are various genres that just happen to be CBMs

TheKingIsHere:
I remember saying that Disney is destroying the marvel characters with their comedic bullshit, you guys thought I was just hating.

Now, Chris Hemsworth has confessed that Mark Ruffalo complained that Disney is destroying marvel characters with their childish crap. It is so obvious.

The same hulk that was a monster and tagged strongest avenger is now a comedian.

CC vic2ree
Did you by chance read the original 60s Hulk comics? Ragnarok's version of Hulk was easily the best film version to date. A lot of people loved him. The way he started punching himself in the quinjet was kind of emotional to be honest. It was if Banner and Hulk were punching themselves, a great way to relate to Stan Lee's original ideas surrounding one's self worthlesness.

At the end of the day, to each his own. But its pretty weird to take one person's opinion as justification for the supposed objectivity of yours. It's called confirmation bias.

LoL! And yet the franchise is a Hollywood behemoth. If the formula works, then why bother changing it? Much respect for Scorcese though.

SHADEYINKA

I am a layman, so let me clarify this for you in my own way.

There is no denial from any Atheists here. No atheist here is making a positive claim about anything. It's all in your head. What we're trying to tell you is very simple: If there is a source or initiator (and that's a big IF because we cannot be a 100% sure), you cannot just conclude that it is "a god". How do you know it isn't a race of intelligent cosmic entities we have no way of verifying? You have to accept that we cannot know everything. Your failure to provide objective proof of this "god" you keep inserting after a whooping six pages is evidence of that. You are displaying a bias towards one option and ruling out the rest based on nothing really. All your arguments use physics, which is still pure natural science. I'm not ready to engage in any pointless back and forth because it appears to me that you are just repeating the same thing over and over. It's of no use.
LMFAO. The guy is a bare faced liar. His posts in this thread not only lack logic, they are extremely fallacious. He's just parroting arguments he has seen elsewhere, but was too ignorant to recognise as fallacious. Sabrina keeps turning him out but he just keeps on lying to try and save face. It's so obvious.

I applaud everyone on this thread who was risked his/her IQ to debate this fraud. He's not prepared to stop lying and trolling. Most religious apologetics become tedious after a while, because of their level of close-mindedness, but his level of idiotic ignorance is a pointless waste of bandwidth. This is why I don't debate christians because they don't seem to understand what an argument from ignorance fallacy is

You think anyone can prove God!!??

After tearing your people to shreds with the sciences you claim to rely on.

I know your problem. You've searched through all the Atheist forums you know for rebuttals and you couldn't find suitable ones: hence you brey like a cornered donkey because I use elementary (commonly available knowledge) physics, computer, electronics, biology and common sense knowledge available to all to show your faulty conclusion. SMH!

What have I gained!?
Satisfaction of your guys failing in what they they "pride" in as their god!



So, you think my arguments have been Deist's? SMH
I've never cared a hoot about any Deist. Saying this actually is a proof that my jab pained you (whether you pretend to admit it or not).

I swear @bolded. I've had a few back and forths with stubborn christians in the past and after a while, i realised its of no use really. They push arguments of deist god and use it conclude that their favourite monotheistic god exists. The most frustrating part is that they'll view your lack of response as a victory for themselves and a defeat of you, even though their arguments are just too stupid to respond to. LoL grin

TV/MoviesRe: Marvel Cinematic Universe by Vic2Ree(m): 3:31pm On Jul 20, 2019
Just watched Far From Home. I'd say Homecoming is a bit stronger , tighter film. Then again , SMHC didn't have to deal with as much baggage going into it as SMFFH did.

SMFFH had to sort of reset the table as the result of Endgame from SMHC and deal with: the blip, the fact that they didn't age , Stark's death, the status quo of Peter and MJ inbetween the end of SMHC and the beginning of SMFFH, and the school field trip all, in the first act , as opposed hitting the ground running as most part 2s tend to do. Those things effected the pacing a bit I suspect

I'd give SMHC is an A , and SMFFH is an A-, so both films are good Spiderman films. Both have their strengths and weaknesses, but I think i'd give the edge to SMHC.

But again, they're both good Spiderman films .

Came accross a lot of reviews seriously destroying this film but got interested and decided to download and watch anyway for fun. Felt like this film wanted to give me malaria cause i was getting a headache trying to understand how they managed to blend such abysmal actors and terrible dialogue to produce such a shìtfest.

The Death of Superman, Dark Knight Returns Superman vs Batman fight. The literal dream of millions of fanboys and just general pop culture worldwide. Wasted. Assembly of the Suicide Squad, Introduction of the New Gods and Darkseid. Forming the Justice League...
