Women don’t like to do shyt if men ain’t involved or around. Let’s talk facts.
Only thing women do by themselves is go shopping, get hair or nails done, read and eat. Only thing they do in groups is get brunch and dinner.
I know what I’m talking about.
There has to be a back story or attachment for women to go to the movies. They don’t go just because there is a female lead they are supposed to support cause fems said so.

no it doesn’t. Hunger games was popular books, barbie is American culture to the core, Wonder Woman is cannon, people saw Captain marvel for the Easter eggs men went to see that, if women liked captain marvel they would support it.

This "redpill" shyt is so fukking corny.
Like what you like and let other people like what they like.
Other people having things you don't like won't make what you like go away.
shyt's not that hard.

Yes obviously that's an issue but when every other movie of 2023 except literally NINE made less....again, it's not specifically a Marvel issue.
Kinda confused why people don't realize this.

You’re definitely a mentally weak fakkit for this thread title, sorry we don’t like the trash you like
This is the goofy ass chronically online shyt I'm talking about.
40% of the audience for "GOTG", a Z tier Marvel team, was women. That was damn near 10 years ago.
Why do women love Guardians of the Galaxy?
Female viewers are flocking to US cinemas to see the newest release from the Marvel stable, with women making up almost half of the audience. Why? It offers something often missing in superhero movies
www.theguardian.com
Some of yall sound like you've been in a coma since 1953. Just completely out of touch with reality.
The funny thing is, these same people said the same things, for the same reasons, about the first Captain Marvel....then it made $1.1 billion.
But now everyone should listen to them.
It did deviate from the source material, but that's another topic entirely.
And black people aren't the face of the backlash against this movie. Or "Black Panther". I'm saying the same types of social media accounts were criticizing "BP". But now it's ok because it's women.

One thing that’s not talked about enough is that marvel sequel movies are always trash. the winter soldier is the only sequel that vastly outperforms the initial movie. I’ll go into that in a minute.
The issue is Marvel is so formulaic. Their formula works pretty well for movies that are introducing a new character or teams, but sequels demand that you go a level deeper with a character concept and that formula isn’t built to allow directors and writers the bandwidth to do so.
Or marvel as a whole just doesn’t seem to hire writers and directors who are willing to go that deep into a characters concept.
The winter soldier works so well because the story that it’s based off of was written by a guy named Ed Brubaker and his run on Captain America was very much loaded with “spy/political intrigue (I believe the Brubaker run was directly inspired by the fox tv series ‘24’).
this meant that the Russo brothers (who directed the winter soldier movie) had a pretty solid concept to base the movie off of . Captain America as a character works pretty well with political intrigue and as long as the fights had extremely solid choreography, the audiences seem to enjoy it. The Russo brothers would also get lucky again and have another solid story to base a movie off of in the form of Civil War.
(there’s also a conversation about how marvel is struggling with fight and scene choreography for cosmic heroes, street level heroes and their power sets translates better into practical stunts which look more appealing to audiences)
The overall point I’m trying to make here is I believe that marvel studios needs to start fundamentally understanding the concepts that revolve around their characters and play with those concepts. For example, I think they made a significant mistake with how they rolled out the character of moon knight. They chose to focus more on the Egyptian lore/split personality side of the character when they could’ve still done the split personality thing but directly base the initial moon knight series off of Warren Ellis penned six issue miniseries that relaunched the character back in 2015. Ellis conceptually wrote moon knight as the defender of the “travelers of the night” which was a way to set the moon knight character up to investigate weirder street level crimes that plague the citizens of marvel. See? that’s the hook right there m. that’s the concept that the Directors and writers at marvel Studios have to be willing to play with. that concept is infinitely more intriguing than what they rolled out.

What is the difference between them?Incels and redpillers would be happy about this?More like the anti-woke crowd than red pillers

That is what I mean about hit or miss. You had solid to great films like Iron man,Cap first avenger/winter soldier, Guardians of the galaxy, avengers and Ant man during phrase 1 and 2. but you also had mediocre to bad films like Iron man 2/3, thor 1/2, age of ultron and Hulk.
Funny when Marvel ans MCU gets the burnt end of the stick, all of a sudden it is "MCU taking risks" and "let the directors do their thing"
But you, YOU, were the same person that was saying that DC should stop making movies altogether when they were underperforming.
@Eric Brooks
My girl wants to see because she loves black superheroes, so I'll probably end up seeing with her only if we go to Alamo Drafthouse to see it.
But with the streak that the MCU have been on, who didn't see to coming and that Variety article and the Blade news doesn't help whatsoever
