coramar-seelie:carzinization:getluciferoutofthecage: carzinization:ongoing compendium I’m so sick of seeing this, apparently people all over the world LOVE superhero movies like this, what is wrong with that? Let people enjoy things. Nobody is making you go to the movies to see a new marvel movie? Don’t like it -> don’t watch it. Literally that simple? I’m allowed to say “i don’t like this” on my personal blog for me without it being a dick move. Marvel isn’t a 17 year old girl getting flamed on tumblr because people thought her fanfic was trite. Marvel is a corporation owned by Disney that is monopolizing the movie industry and chokeholding theaters and is doing everything they can to make creating movies into an automated algorithmic process to make people watch more marvel movies. Here’s an article about how they map everything in a movie out years in advance so much so that they tell their directors to not worry about directing. Here is a video about why you don’t remember any of the soundtrack once you leave the theater. Whether or not you enjoy them is, generously, a matter of preference. But thinking that it’s good that Marvel’s playbook is to make the least unique viewing experience of all time that hits a high schooler’s understanding of the heroes journey in plot beats so people will come in for the next one, and to churn out at least one movie a year riddled with unnecessary CGI where the actors are bored to tears in front of a green screen with a script that’s redacted to hell and back so they have no idea what they’re actually performing, where they quite literally tell the director to not worry about directing, which they then pay theaters to make the majority of their screenings to prevent literally any other movie from possibly grossing. Is objectively. A bad thing Fuck, be entertained if you want to, but Tom Hiddleston’s performance as Loki was stronger the first time because he could read the entire script and knew what was happening with his character. He got to make comments about how he wanted to play Loki. People loved him back in 2012 for a good reason.The intense redaction of scripts for the sake of “spoilers” has only led to blander performances with actors uninformed on everything and unable to make any input on their character and story. Even the costuming is the emptiest shit you can imagine. The X-Men trilogy wardrobes at least had character.Look at how Disney chose to portray young Luke in the Mandalorian. They prioritized accuracy to Mark Hamill’s image and it’s literally robotic—they had an AI synthesize all his lines. I may have had my gripes about Alden Ehrenreich in Solo but at least he wasn’t deepfaked and dubbed by a computer. If Disney could remove the human element to filmmaking entirely, they would. -- source link
