    Can’t disagree that oversaturating the market is definitely a challenge of theirs to work against or keep up with, but it’s not necessarily a problem. That’s like saying the biggest issue with marvel movies that they’ve been making so much money that we got a GOTG triology. Doesn’t sound like a problem for the Guardian fans. What about getting Spider-Man a decent third movie for a change?

    ALL these films are visually identical or thematically similar is just reductionist and when I hear people make that blanket statement, all that sounds like to me is a complaint to the costume department.

      It’s not a complaint about the costume department. It’s a praise of the costume department. And the props department. And the visual effects department. And the editing and the everything. The franchise is visually recognizable, it has a signature look. It’s glorious and obviously marvel.

      People will make comparisons though. And in the process figure out the secret sauce of action movies.

        Then I don’t know what your point is then. They made too many movies and they’re all the same? Help me understand that point of view, because the abridged the Hero With A Thousand Faces take kinda boils down to either an issue with aesthetic or an issue with action movies in general regardless of what Marvel’s been doing.

          I already explained my point, in detail, twice. However, you keep trying to shove that straw man “they are all the same” turd my way. You’ll forgive me for not indulging you yet again.

          There’s no point to keep talking since you are obviously not engaging in good faith.

            I’m sorry if I’ve upset you, really just trying to understand your different point of view with no disrespect. It doesn’t have to be like Reddit here V, good night.
