She has visual style in her work, Marvel don't want that. 

Yeah, this is yet another dumb BOT take for one of the studios that literally help keep movie theaters open. If you can’t tell how much several of the best directors in Hollywood got to shine with their Marvel Studios films, that’s on you, not them.

Director: Makes a successful movie

 

The Internet: “What superhero movie should they direct?”

She said that she is open to make them and would be interested on doing it. It’s not ‘teh internet’.

When a Marvel director gets an Oscar nomination after working for them I'll class them as one of the best in Hollywood.

One actually won an Oscar as best picture and best directing and it’s one of the most beautiful superhero films ever made. It’s called Eternals, directed by Chloé Zhao. It was just ahead of its time. Arguably one of the most underrated MCU films the more time goes by.

Headed to theatre contemplating hiding my face as good as I could so people won’t see me getting into a Barbie screening, went out telling how much I liked the film. Gerwig ,Robbie and Goslin are insane for pulling this off .

Not like Eternals was universally despised by the fanbase on release or anything

Hyperbole and internet go in hand together. Eternals was released when the pandemic still very much was a thing. It still made to $400m and got a cult following since then. It’s underrated, yes. But it wasn’t despised in release. It was called boring, and looking back now I think it was just ahead of its time.

This discussion doesn't warrant any more of my time, lest I lose anymore brain cells

Greta needs to spend the weekend thinking of ways to get out of her Narnia contract.

@ZattMurdock just a reminder you can ignore people who don’t like Marvel as much as you do. No need to derail the thread like this.

We would have been a decent movie?

Try to imagine the Mario movie but it had something interesting in it.

I wouldn't really worry about Barbie. The truth is that the online reception of the film is so good and strong that there won't be so much "hate talk"about it.

 

On other hand, the Marvels discourse will be big.

 

Nah The Marvels will be a movie that came and went. No discourse to speak of (ragetube videos are such everyday thing they don't count as discourse and they didn't care to watch Ms Marvel flop even to shit on it) and no cultural relevance. Barbie it ain't. They realized that on time and ran the fuck away from July.

Very good for Nolan too with 4K

Oh for people not speaking french: 6k tickets sold at 2pm in Paris. Best opening in 2023.

 

For Nolan 4k.

[vale9001]

No hate cause i casually enjoy them but Marvel movies left impact on the "social discourse" to the pre covid decade.
