Inside Out absolutely deserves a spot. It’s my favorite Disney (+Pixar) movie and also in my top 10, and I grew up on the '90s Disney movies.

Speaking of, if there were 2 Disney movies I’d put on the list, it would probably be Inside Out and The Lion King.

As a Marvel fan, I don’t think it’s been overhyped. But I have thought some former movies were overhyped.

I do think it’s even better if you’re familiar with the characters though.

I’m not sure if I missed it somewhere in your writeup. But there’s also Castlevania: Harmony of Despair, the multiplayer co-op game.

It’s weird, Black Panther doesn’t scratch my top 5 MCU movies. It wasn’t even the best black lead superhero movie of the same year. Into the Spider-Verse is probably in my top 10 movies.

But BP was undoubtedly one of the more culturally impactful movies in the MCU.

But then again, Deadpool 1 and 2 are great movies that have been culturally impactful. But critics don’t want to admit that.

Marvel does own merch rights. But Spider-Man movies are always profitable. Even Amazing Spider-Man 2 was. It’s free money.

However the spin-offs, outside of Venom, have been break-even at best.

I loved his movies. FFH wasn’t as good, it felt a bit more slapstick with him fumbling around a lot. They toned down Mysterio to make him more palatable which is a shame. But otherwise they nailed the essence of him. I’m excited to see him come back through his crew.

Him specifically, he’s fine for what they’re doing with his iteration. I still would rather Garfield’s just be incorporated into the MCU. Holland’s feels too nice to be as snarky as Garfield’s. I don’t think it’s Holland’s fault, they just wanted him chatty and naive. Plus Garfield was already self-reliant.

But if they had gone down that route with Holland, I think he could have nailed it even better since it would be more unexpected. Garfield’s Spider-Man wore his anger on his sleeves.

They could easily do jokester/mocking with Holland now that he’s in the thick of superheroing.

Watching them as they came out, hearing the incel complaints, and watching the next episode that addressed all of the complaints was some glorious real time shit. It may not have stuck the landing perfectly at the end, but I loved the journey and I’m glad it was in there.

I really loved that show. It’s just a shame it cost so much to produce.

I was not aware. But I guess I only have a few subs from lemm.ee

Not entirely unexpected. Marvel fans loved it. General audiences are burnt out from wildly varying quality.

However, this is the type of movie that will start building back confidence if they can put out more quality movies.

Angela Bassett was phenomenal. There was a lot of good in the movie. It’s a shame they seemed to try to differentiate themselves so hard from Aquaman because the dark wasn’t very cinematic.

Overall I thought it was a very mediocre post-Endgame movie with fun moments like The Marvels and Captain America: BNW. There are much worse and much better movies post-Endgame.

It was definitely on the lower end as far as Marvel movies go. I’d say it was just a hair better than bad. There were some good scenes, but overall they didn’t flow from one to the other. The main villain wasn’t interesting. There were some neat concepts that ended up feeling like missed opportunities (a feeling I’ve had A LOT post-Endgame).

I’d put it neck-and-neck with Wakanda Forever. Better than Thor L&T, Ant-Man QuANTuMANia, Captain America BNW, and Black Widow. Nowhere near as good as Shang-Chi, Spider-Man FFH, Spider-Man NWH, Doctor Strange MoM, GOTG Vol. 3, or Thunderbolts. I thought Eternals was fun too. Not as good as those mentioned, but still better than The Marvels.

Only problem with this is that both Fantastic Four and Superman look really good, but I’m also wanting to see 28 Years Later and How to Train Your Dragon. There’s too many movies, dammit.

“Wants to” isn’t really what she said. She said she would. Most would.

The Thunderbolts was good even before the reveal. As someone who knew that spoiler (didn’t even realize it was a spoiler), I was in no rush to get there. Plus the reveal is “worth it”. Neither was true for Red Hulk in BNW.

L&T had a lot of higher highs. A lot of the scenes with Gorr were legitimately great. The deleted scene with Zeus was so much better than what made it into the movie.

The lows were just so much lower. And it’s kind of worse for me that there’s such good scenes in a structurally solid movie, that’s completely undercut by screaming goats, jealous hammer, and orgy not-really-even-jokes. They could legitimately put 10-20 mil into it and make it a great movie if they wanted.

BNW is fun, the big fight is interesting, but they clearly had no offramp for it. They had no vision with how to use the leader or red hulk. The whole thing is so disjointed, I don’t even know how it could be made good. It just sucks that they ruined a couple characters.

I didn’t hate it like I did Love and Thunder. But it and L&T have the most wasted potential maybe out of all the Marvel movies.

It’ll be a good D+ movie though.

It still cost almost 3/4 of those. And those cost way more than they should have.

That and I assume they realized the amount they were spending on MCU shows was unsustainable. I loved She-Hulk, but it cost $220 million, Hawkeye was $150 million, Secret Invasion was $225 million.

What worries me is what he considers good, or at least better than the rest.

Those ratings don’t give me a lot of confidence.
