Ah good, a Marvel movie! I wonder what will happen?
Ah that was fun, did it feel similar to <> though?
(And I say this as someone who loved the marvel movies, up until endgame, but everything since phase 3 has followed this pattern very closely)
Don't forget how the bad guy is just a bigger, badder version of the hero.
"We're not so different, you and I"
I'm not strong enough, but I'll use my actual secret power: Screaming.
I hate how we can't just have villains anymore. It's either a future corrupted version of our current hero, or we spend about a third of the runtime making our villains relatable so people can be upset when the consequences finally catch up to them.
Imo we don't need relatable villains, which is ironic because I used to think being evil for the sake of being evil was annoying, until it went away.
IW killed it, it broke us completely.
Endgame was expurgation, but we're still so overloaded, I think the only thing even remotely interesting to me has been loki. And that's just because tom h is the most charming thing to exist.
I loved IW and even endgame. But looking back, even it followed the same pattern, just in longer form. IW ends with the first fight with baddy, which is lost. Once you see the pattern you can't unsee it
