I wanna hear what were your issues with the Thor movies and what made you love Ironman 3 despite its flaws.

The first Thor movie bored me lol..plain and simple. All of the good stuff seemed to be on Asgard and they gave very little time to that and all of the earth stuff felt mundane including the climax...and I can take those same complaints for the 2nd movie especially since it did very little to explore the character of Thor and develop him.
Iron Man 3 on the other hand took time to sit with Tony, explore his psyche and his PTSD and what it would be like for a guy wired like that to suffer through PTSD. I loved the mandarin twist but I'm also not beholden to the mandarin as a villain and even if I was, I still think I would've loved the twist because of what it had to say about terrorism and the nature of terrorism needing a face and a big bad guy when in reality it's just a white guy in a suit. It felt like more of a personal movie than a big superhero movie and I normally love Shane Black's writing and this was no different.

Wordplay or fukk up?

that's because you have the assurance that upcoming flix are going to be in a different tone and style based on a proven track record. We can't say that about WB/DC cuz their heads are so stuck in the sand they won't even recognise what about MoS didn't work. All indications lead to the belief all their flix will be Nolan lite and that's seems like an own goal from the jump

While I can get that gist for the first movie, seems kinda ironic and/or off to say the same thing with the 2nd movie considering much more of it took place on Asgard and/or the other realms than on earth. I liked both Thor movies. Both about solid 8/10s in my book with the 2nd being the expected level of extra-ness that a sequel is required, albeit not really on a mind-blowing scale.
I get and share the sentiments with Ironman 3 though, as despite it's flaws and hate, I was thoroughly entertained by it and liked it. Only reason why I still don't own it yet on blu ray is it's ridiculous Ironman price tag for it (shyt is still going for 29 bucks at the majority of stores, similar to how part 2 took years to finally go down in price as well. I really liked the Mandarin twists for the same reasons you mentioned as well as sheer entertainment factor, however, I didn't like the very end's all over the place in tone (shyt had inappropriately timed humor at the same time as near-tragedy instances) and end result for the climax. Pepper ultimately being the hero?!
Tony's suit getting getting torn to pieces with ease by just suped up humans.

I think the reason my complaint is like that for the 2nd even tho it took place mostly on Asgard is because they still did nothing with Thor for me. He was still just set dressing in his own movie. And yeah Iron man 3 is expensive as hell. I think I got it when it was on the cheap when it first dropped.

potencyOf course there's going to apprehension towards Batman vs Superman, after Man of Steel stunk up joint and mishandled Superman's characters according to 50% of fanbase(Superman's fanbase for that matter). The same director is directing the film and they've followed it up with abhorrent casting choices for major characters that people haven't been waiting years for semi-decent renditions of. When your fast tracked B team has better and more appealing cast than your main guns, something quite clearly has gone wrong. If Brett Ratner was announced to direct the next X-MEN flick ,Shane Black for the next Avengers flick or Civil War after what they've previously made, you think people would be looking forward to them?
. The Russos would be nowhere fukking near Civil War and especially Avengers: Infinity Wars(Marvel Studios big one) if it wasn't positively received.
Some of you need to stop with this intentional lack of awareness frontin

Well Marvel is batting .500 with me because I loved 5 of their movies and am betweenand
with the other 5.
So the track record logic doesn't work for me. I like what I like and hope for the best for stuff I haven't seen yet. That is why I am still optimistic about the new Fantastic Four movie despite thinking the previous FF movies were ass.
Last I checked though a .500 batting average is outstanding though.
Storm has a bigger fanbase IMO
Probably but Wonder Woman is the biggest character in DC behind Batman and Superman.

In the 70s and amongst the comic bubble maybe but in 2015 the general consensus would indicate it was green arrow. When this WW appears on screen I doubt ppl are going to be going crazy for the simple fact she hasn't been on any form of media in over 30 years and her shyty costume that won't even have the iconic colours
