Every reviewer with superhero fatigue needs to stop watching said movies. As an old fart who grew up reading every comic in print, most superhero movies made in the past decade have been awesome - Sony SpidermanWithoutSpiderman movies not included - and I’m sick of reading/hearing a bunch of nonsense whinging from people who never liked capeshit in the first place.
Cap4 was great. I was on the edge of my seat throughout much of the movie. The CGI was 100% fine. Everyone in my theater enjoyed it.
Rant over.
I feel like there are three kinds of reviewers.
People who review for a living and have to go watch every movie to write something about it, and are sick of Marvel movies but this is their job.
People who hate superhero movies and know that a scathing review will be good for engagement, so they eagerly anticipate each hatewatching experience. I put the bigots in this category, too, although that’s an entirely different kind of hate. This group enjoys shitting on the movies, the companies that make them, the actors and filmmakers who support them, and anyone who wants to see them.
People who enjoy MCU movies and genuinely share their honest opinion, but they are fans so you can’t really trust their opinion either.
In the end, Marvel is for fans. If you’re a fan, you’re going to see the movie or watch the show. If it’s great, word of mouth will spread and people will see it. If it sucks, the same will happen. Written reviews and scores and everything else can be ignored.
How is that the lowest? I tried watching love and thunder and halfway through i gave up. I wanted Jane is thor because the hammer deems her worthy but no, that was basically the b plot to thor feeling cucked by his hammer because it’s helping his ex for him. In the comics this was the he isn’t worthy but she is arc.
This is for CinemaScore, where they poll audiences at the theater after watching the movie. The average score they gave was B-, which is the lowest score for an MCU movie so far.
Thor: Love and Thunder received a B+ CinemaScore, back when people were still semi-optimistic about Phase 4.
Can we stop beating the dead horse for a few years now? I’m so sick of MCU content; I still haven’t even bothered to watch the last like 4 of them.
That is OK, but, then, way are you here in this community exactly? 🤨
I take that either you browse by all and did not check what community this post is in, or you are subbed to something you are not interested in.
I’m aware of where I am. I’m voicing my opinion. Others may agree, they may not. That’s what discussions are for.
But you just said you didn’t see the movie.
Your opinion is based on what?
My opinion of the MCU, not this individual movie.

Im not sick of MCU stuff. I’m of boring, churned out slop. Give me more Wanda vision. Give me characters who are interesting beyond having super powers. Give me stuff I’m gonna think about along side the graphics.
If you haven’t bothered to watch the last 4 of em (Deadpool and Wolverine, The Marvels, GotG3, Quantumania) then why would you watch this one? Can’t you ignore it and let people enjoy things that don’t involve you?
Because I do actually like the MCU and would like to see it improved. It’s just been overwhelming for too long and I’d like to express my opinion about that. I never said you or others can’t go enjoy it.
TBH, My big problem is that they all tie into each other and there’s been a constant unending flood of them for years and years.
If I wanted to watch this one; I’d have to overcome the burnout that set in half a decade ago and watch like 5 2.5hour movies in a row just to understand wtf is happening.
I really don’t watch a ton of movies; to keep up with the MCU in any capacity, I’d basically have to abandon watching anything else and only ever see MCU content. It’s exhausting.
I just want them to take a damn break for a while and let the public actually build some desire to see the content. I’m just one example/voice, but I’m certainly not the only one.
Wow, that’s still pretty generous. Go see it in 4DX. You won’t like it more, but it’ll be the least of your concerns at that point. Bonus points if you load up on so many concessions that you have to carefully balance them on your lap.
That’s like $200 that I’d rather spend on ketamine
Fair enough, but I think my plan will help dissociate, too.
