| 03.09.23 | Internet | these movies keep getting longer and longer. Or maybe this one just felt super long because it was honestly pretty boring. I was never the hugest Namor fan in the world but I don't remember him being this militant. Maybe I'm wrong or maybe he was rebooted or something and that's the source they used but it felt to me like the story was nothing. Like oh they really shouldn't fight, but then they do fight, but then they don't fight. Big whoop. And where's the giant hand in the ocean? It's like The Eternals never happened. I have to say... i know there was no way the marvel movies would stop with endgame, but since then it's really lacked the cohesion and consistency that they built this universe with. Like I feel like the nerds who put that timeline of a week together between all the phase 1 movies would be completely lost with this phase. I don't even know if this is still phase 4 or 5. And I'm not watching the tv stuff so i can see them all in order but more and more it doesn't feel like that matters anymore. This didn't have anything to do with the Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special. One thing I do remember from back when I was collecting and reading comics was that whenever there was a crossover event, they were pretty damn clear about telling you. I feel like events like Inferno and Mutant Massacre even had like a checklist on the inside cover or something telling you to go read Daredevil this month or that this story dealt with Fantastic Four or whatever. Maybe they should start doing that with the movies? so we can know that Shang-Chi is a one-off but definitely watch Ant-Man because Kang's in that shit? I dunno, I guess that's basically saying some movies are more important than others, but there's been like 50 of these things now. Anyway, I wonder how the development of this movie went. It's definitely Ryan Coogler's weakest movie, and I'm sure that it was completely derailed by Chadwick Boseman's death. Oh well. It was still a nice enough diversion I guess, just surprisingly mediocre. |
