She treated VFX people like shit for years so you bet that this decision isn't an overnight one. She was on the chopping block since VFX workers made their issues with Marvel public. We don't know when the axe fell but they announced it today. When a big gun falls they always give them time to find another lucrative position in another big company to bully people there. These people always do well. Ant Man 3 flopping is not on her. She'll be a popular scapegoat cause PapaFeigeCan'tDoWrong. But it didn't flop because of VFX. VFX have been a problem for a long time for Mahvel. Well there were story problems with antman 3 vfx has become a more pressing issue due to studios forcing vfx teams to go to crunch consantly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alonso firing may fix relationship with VFX but it won't fix creative woes since she had nothing to do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liiviig 1998 Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Guess Alonso was the scapegoat. Now daddy iger pliz rid us of those Ricky and morty writers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddyxx Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 So far we’ve seen them say that there will be more spread out MCU releases to let each one shine, a delay on Disney plus MCU projects for this year, Iger said that they don’t need 3rd and 4th films for every marvel character and now Alonso leaving the company. Anyone who doesn’t see the MCU is in turmoil post quantamania is definitely in denial. Only question is whether there will be anymore shake ups?

Seems to me like a necessary evolution. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So this is a very mixed bag firing Diversity push aint worth it if the films look like shit. It’s the argument conservatives always make that the diversity pushing is letting quality go to the wayside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lion Roar Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 (edited) Fixing VFX won't fix script issues. Hopefully this is just the first step, and the Rick and Morty writers are the next to go. They really should just bring Marcus and McFeeley. Edited March 20, 2023 by Lion Roar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, If the script for Ant Man 3 had been really good, people would not have minded the wonky CGI so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
excel1 Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 (edited) Watch her interviews, she does not give off much a "horrible boss" vibe in what I have seen. Bob Chapek did, however. Edited March 20, 2023 by excel1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have ample experience in this area 😂 It is amazing how many people that are just being effective task managers get referred to "what an asshole/bitch". So cannot always take first word.

keysersoze123 Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Even If she was singularly responsible for all the evil things about Marvel and Vfx, Feige has to take the responsibilities as he is above her in rank and she has been around for so long. I find it hard to believe that this is not some kind of hit piece happening to pass the buck. Anyway we will know in few months if the toxic relationship with VFX studios are in the rearview mirror or not. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiderByte Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 I mean there's not much Feige could do other than hire someone else, which I definitely think we'll hear from very soon because they absolutely would not have announced this without someone lined up.

Dominic Draper Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 I see they've found a new scapegoat. Anybody who believes she was solely responsible and feige wasnt culpable is out of their mind. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, not denying Victoria wasn't part of the problem she was the one in charges for visuals but both she and Feige were co-approving things. There's no way Feige wouldn't be aware or in some cases due to the power he has, it's plausible he was in on it too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
