Nobody likes Hawkeye and Ant-Man had among the lowest grossing films in the MCU even during the good times.

Iger is not a hero, he is not saying that diversity failed Disney just to placate the shareholders.

Bob Iger has always been an uncreative soulless business man and he is more responsible for why Disney is in a rut than Chapek is. Disney has never cared about Diversity. They care about what makes them money and they were always going to blame diversity for their crappy movies under performing when that happened. It's sick and I hate it but it was always going to happen.

I'm a black Muslim woman. Try again. Stunningly bizarre to see someone assume that I don't want to see positive portrayals of brown and black Muslim girls on television and in movies because I accurately point out that the audience is completely indifferent to the Ms Marvel character in live action. Stop assuming everyone is a secret bigot. You don't know me.

I love Kamala and her being the lead in Marvel Zombies makes me actually want to watch it when before I had zero interest. I'm glad she is getting that project but it is sadly mostly over for her after that. The character just isn't clicking with most people. Partly because teen girls are demonized while teen boys aren't and partly because she's a fan girl of a supremely unpopular Superhero. It's a bummer to me but audiences have spoken.

Firing Feige is going to make things worse. There is no one who has ever did what Feige did. He was a great improvisor. Feige is not perfect of course but he and his team are the only ones who made a blockbuster cinematic universe work for over a decade (The Conjuring Universe is a big success but is smaller and horror focused). Iger did Disney as a whole dirty with the Disney Plus experiment. Feige has obviously been overwhelmed by having to introduce 30 new heroes to fill that overrated app.

There is no irony in my post. You simply got upset that I said that a screenwriter that you liked wasn't cut out for the blockbuster game. We definitely won't be speaking again. Have a good day.

There is no good cut of BvS and I'm not putting ALL of the blame on him for either film. Nowhere in my post do I even imply such a thing.

I think sometimes we are too hard on blockbuster screenwriters. They are being pulled in a million different directions. It's no wonder any blockbuster turns out good. Don't get me wrong, some writers are just not cut out for dealing with the director and studio stuff in the blockbuster realm. Chris Terrio, for instance, should never be allowed to get near another blockbuster screenplay after Batman v Superman and Rise of Skywalker. Michael Waldron is still a question mark. Sure Multiverse of Madness screenplay sucked but it didn't suck enough for me to believe that he doesn't deserve another shot. Maybe he'll crush the Avengers movies? We'll see. They don't need a genius screenwriter, just one that can handle all of the blockbuster nonsense well enough.

I don't understand why so many don't get this? It makes a ton of money but how a film makes its money matters. It was massively frontloaded because of mixed word of mouth. I like Multiverse of Madness but it was one of the movies that hurt the MCU.

Any reports that claim that Marvel is making a sequel to Eternals is a lie. It's a disliked film and nobody liked the characters. If The Marvels is only headed for 230M worldwide then Eternals would do around 80M worldwide. So unless Disney can do Eternals 2 for 20M it is never being made.

Eternals was the starting point. It all adds up. Every lackluster entry added up. Ant-Man 3 was the last straw. If that had the quality of Guardians 3 I believe we would be here talking about how The Marvels dropped around 35-40% from its predecessor and not 79-80%.

This movie's numbers are just sad now.

Because people were excited for Ant-Man 3...until they saw it. It's the same reason BvS opened massively.

The Hunger Games prequel is a big movie for women. That is proven by most of the viewers being women. I believe that Disney could make woman led MCU movies for women but they would need to stop listening to what people on Twitter say that women want and actually look at the films that women go see. The Hunger Games, Barbie, Twilight, Titanic and many more have shown what women like. People online are just too afraid to admit it because they feel that most women's desires are misogynistic. Most women and girl film goers like the will they/want they romance with the attractive guy with abs. Disney believes that's misogynistic now so they refuse to do it. Even if it's an anti romance like Barbie, they still want that guy there.
