They’re just not willing to take the risks they were talking when marvel was still going solo before it’s Disney acquisition. Disney isn’t big on risks.
What risks did they use to take? As long as I remember the Marvel movies have been formulaic copies
Giving creative control to specific directors to let their vision shine through the project: Iron Man, Guardians of the Galaxy, Thor Love and Thunder, etc.
Edit meant Thor Ragnarok the Taika Waititi directed movie.
I mean, Iron man was like literally the first movie in the MCU (discounting that Hulk movie), it also literally started the trope of Bad Guy has literally the same skillset/power as the good guy that was replicated a bunch of times.
GotG, and Thor: Ragnarok are the only movies that are unique and carried by their directors.
Love and thunder is a dumpster fire.
Ah I think Thor Ragnarok was what I meant, the Taika Waititi directed movie
Both are directed by Watiti. However, he got high on his own supply after Ragnarok, which how he made Love and Thunder.
In my opinion, Ragnarok itself was mid af movie with too many quips. And I absolutely hated Korg which was just a Watiti self-insert.
love and thunder has some incredible deleted scenes though, like thor’s conversation with zeus, and the gorr ripping his tattoos off (not sure if this was released)
