Now obviously when I say downfall, I’m being slightly hyperbolic as I’m sure their movies still earn money but no where near their heydays between 2010 and 2020.

Their movies were highly anticipated and cultural events but seems like all the magic has gone. The last Marvel movie I watched was End Game which I found extremely disappointing especially compared to Infinity War which was their zenith. They’ve lost something and I can’t even put my finger on what. Maybe I’m getting older and these movies no longer excite me or what but all their movies look so boring.

What do yall think has caused this cos I know I’m the only one who feels like this considering the low scores and box office for their current t movies.

:yeshrug:Super Hero fatigue and the fact that End Game. Was kinda like the finale of the mcu for some people. Add in the pandemic, bad to mid movies, over saturation, and characters/IPs that audiences doesn’t care for. But I’m sure that Deadpool 3 is going to have people in theaters again.

As a non-comic fan like myself, they knew how to make good movies with lesser known characters. For example, Guardians. But they really dropped the ball with Disney + and their shows. I thought they was really going to get into the world building and then make dope movies. But we got stuff like Eternals (although liked Strange 2).

But they'll be fine with Deadpool, and Captain America 2 if the rumors are true that another character is gonna be in it.

Stretched themselves too thin and waiting too long for the next team up.

Also, kang catching that case definitely didn’t help prolly could’ve had an avengers movie against him before the allegations hit if they weren’t busy making so many shows.

Lastly, I would probably give the directors more leeway with the films.

Thinking they were smarter than they were without realizing they lucked into the franchise

Uninteresting character and movies

Over-saturation

And the events during the pandemic kind of made us all more serious
