Does anyone else feel like solo comic book films are suffering from having universe building?

Warner Brothers/DC
WB/Legendary Godzilla, Skull Island, etc.
Universal's Monster Movies Dracula, Mummy, Invisible Man
Disney/Star Wars
Sony/Valiant comics

so each episode isn't self-contained on Daredevil? How isn't that bad TV making if doing the same in movies is bad movie making?

What's Edgar Wright doing now? Is Baby Driver coming soon? As you can see one monkey don't stop no show. :win:
Universal invented the shared universe son how many times does that have to be explained to you?

They can't copy an idea that they invented.

The rest I don't even know how to respond except :wtf: you're either trolling or no so little about tv and movies this conversation isn't worth continuing.

Compare arcs in a season of a television show to 12 sperate films brehs :mindblown:

Try to make a thread for a different conversation and of course the stans jump in to shill:snoop:

Rdj Garauntees a billion and good reviews :cape::cape:

The fukk does that have to do with the subject Christ :wtf:
It's evidence the movies aren't 'suffering' as the thread topic asks.

They invented it fine, they stopped doing and now they are again. We all know why.
What's the difference between TV and movies besides length and the form it is released? Oh nothing, every other 'difference' is arbitrary and can be changed. Use your imagination dude.

Bad films exist in and out of shared universes.

Those films in particular though suffered precisely BECAUSE they wrote in the world building and fukked up the pace of the films.

And like i said Civil War and Winter Soldier were great due to the additional world building aspects. It goes both ways.

:mindblown: what the fukk are you talking about.

You're asking what's the difference between a season of daredevil and 12 different films with like 30 different characters hero's and villains and 12 different plot lines


Are you even thinking before you type :mindblown:

Not all comics are structured this way though. In fact the majority are not.

Yes team ups and cross overs and such happen but self contained stories are abundant. And they are better for it.

I felt like phase 1 of the MCU was more self contained. Now it's starting to feel gimmicky trying to shove every character in every movie.

What happened to just a well done villain and plot for 1 hero?

Bvs shoe horned a bunch of shyt in and was a worse film for doing so.
I guess it all boils down to personal tastes :manny:

Back in the days when superhero movies were first made, a shared universe wasn't even considered, but I personally like the idea of things being connected (I'm a bit of a continuity junkie - for example, I thought Avengers EMH got worse when it strayed away from serialization and did more self contained episodes in its second season)

So if someone asked you can they make better transformers films you'd say no they make a billion therefore you can't improve them.
I would say why would you want to improve them? This is a business, they make these movies to make money. transformers is accomplishing that and pleasing someone, maybe not me. But everything doesn't have to be made to my liking. I can accept some things aren't made for me but still successful in their own right.

You seem to have different rules for TV shows vs movies. Why? The only difference is length and how they are released, which have 0 to do with actual story telling.

You seem to not understand the difference between a season of a television show with one arc and 12 movies all with their own stories and heros.

If you can't tell the difference in story telling between a season of a TV show and 12 separate films I'll never be able to explain it to you because you have some type of disability.:yeshrug:

But people seem to be agreeing with me so . . .
Because you're a stan and your main objective in this thread is stanning and other stans are dapping you.

Good job,you have obvious stan @wire28 dapping you while you make irrelevant points to the conversation.



"Disney makes money!" :krs: gets dapped by @wire28

Good job. Now leave the thread if you can't stop stanning for one minute.
