When did you hop off the marvel train

For me, thor2
>>
For me I was never watching all of them and of the ones I watched I didn't like all of those. So I would say it's always been a hit and miss franchise. I see their movies sometimes. Which is all I ever do. I watched the Fantastic Four. Didn't watch Captain America 4
>>
was never on, only saw them with friends or a gf at the time
>>
>>220168682
Fell off after Age of Ultron and have watched any since Endgame.
The only thing bad about capeshit dying is the video game movies replacing it.

haven't yet and probably won't until secret wars.

For me it was Avengers. Absolutely the dullest, shallowest, most vacuous shit, which, while true to form for cape comics, does not make for interesting watching for adults.
Iton Man was fine, RDJ kept it going, but with all the other garish chucklefucks in Avengers, even he couldnt carry it.

After IW

First movie I skipped was Age of Ultron and I haven’t seen any after Black Widow

age of ultron, but the last one I thought it wasn't shit was Avengers 1

Endgame.
It was great and I am tired of pretending its not

Endgame was the end. Nothing after it matters or is even remotely watchable

I think Ant-Man was the first time I refused to watch a movie out of principle, because I hated the idea of Edgar Wright not getting to make the movie he wanted. Keep in mind I was 15, so in hindsight that feels really fucking gay, but realistically by that age I was already growing out of it. None of the phase two movies appealed to me.

Pretty much at the beginning.
Watched Iron Man - it was well done for a superhero movie. But then they started the whole "universe thing".
Fell asleep at a pirated Captain America.
Thor 1 was mediocre, but something new.
Thor 2 was really underwhelming - I only remember that they had Warhammer dark elves, nothing of the plot.
Ragnarock - I only remember that it was colorful and Hemsworth had short hair -meh.
Guardians 1 - I laughed at some of the jokes, but did not acre for Guardians 2, despite Kurt Russel.
I watched at least two Avengers movies (first one and Thanos snapping one), but cannot remember anything at all from their story.

In short, I have watched surprisingly many Marvel movies, but almost nothing in them was memorable. And the greedy bastards have shitted out an even longer list of sequels that I would never watch.
And the more you dive in superhero movies, the stupider they look, and the less I can suspend disbelief.
So they lost me after the first movie.

ant man broke the camels back for me

just couldnt care less

When they made Mary Jane black by replacing her with Zendaya the entire Spiderman lore was ruined in the MCU we could have had a live action Ultimate Spiderman but we got garbage instead the post Secret Wars MCU will be just as awful Disney will now ruin the X-Men

2012 with The Avengers.
I saw the solo movies and got the big team up movie. I was satisfied and moved on with my life.
It wasn't until Guardians of the Galaxy that I thought, "They're still making these things?"
I'm still thinking that. It was a novel concept nearly 20 years ago, but then it just kept going. And it also ended up ruining cinema altogether.
>>
My friends dragged me to see them, I never paid to see any of them. If you count me not being interested in any of them, iron man 1.

If you count my friends dragging me, end game (it should've ended after decapitation)

In hindsight, The Avengers was a watershed moment for the film industry in all the wrong ways. Joss Whedon writing of quips and non-sequiters undercutting any serious moment became the norm and has now seeped into all of culture. The climax of every big action movie started to become these 30 minute long disaster porn, CGI pukefests. And most importantly, the fact that what felt like the final act in a series of movies released over four years was not even close to the "end" of the franchise, and now seems unbelievably quaint in hindsight. And also yeah, it goes without saying that its incredibly commercial success was the reason we started getting the many unsuccessful attempts by studios to create cinematic universes.
I wish there was an alternate timeline where Iron Man was critically successful but didn't do well at the box office. That's the only MCU film that I can watch by itself and still feel holds up very well.

Never was. Never liked how they look. They're all so grey and desaturated, like they're filmed on a parking lot. Who wants fantasy action movies to look like that? They basically entirely replaced movies made by directors like Gore Verbinski and Michael Bay and the Wachowski's and eventually Zack Snyder who actually had a grasp on cool, larger than life visuals.

>>220168682
endgame like a normal person. sure i watched no way home, deadpool and wolverine and will probably watch doomsday but from now on i'm only watching the big event level films. there is just no way i'm spending $30 to go watch the falcon pretend to be captain america or to see another universe version of the fantastic four. I'll just watch doomsday and they will catch me up then, because they have to since they know nobody saw all the other slop in between endgame and doomsday.

After Infinity War. Didn't see endgame til years after. Infinity war was really good, but had no interest in Endgame and when I finally saw it, it was just a MCU clip show.

The girl boss moment in Endgame. I knew it's over right then and there.
>>
>>220168682
>When did you hop off the marvel train
never got on it

The cracks formed right before endgame with some characters I've never cared to watch the movies for, but there's still some of bother to watch
>>
>>220168682
capeshit watching faggot

>>220168682
Thor: Love and Thunder. Pretty much the modern equivalent of Batman & Robin without the fun parts.
>>
>>220177777
checked. however if you got that far though you would know that not every movie is mandatory and can just consider that to be 1 shit movie rather than a reason to leave the entire franchise.
>>
>>220177845
I was already getting tired and fed up at some of the movies/shows, that was just the last straw.
>>
>>220177979
Yea the shows really left a sour taste on a lot of people and were a net negative. Loki should have just been 2 movies, hawkeye should have been a movie, secret invasion could have been a 3 movie plot point, and they should have scrapped the rest of the shows excluding Daredevil.

I was on the hype train all the way to Infinity War. I really liked Infinity War, up to the Thanos fight on Titan. It's a really great spectacle. Then you have Dr.Strange say he's tried 14 million ways to defeat Thanos and only beat him in one. And then he gives up. And I said to my friend, this better pay off. Cause I wasn't exactly feeling it.

Then Endgame comes out, and honestly, it weakens Infinity War. It's a fine movie, it's got some interesting stuff. Time travel just tends to ruin things. Endgame is a fan service movie.

Thanos felt fan fiction strong though. Too many curiosities and questions. People thought Stranges magic wasn't strong enough to portal from Titan to Earth.... oh actually it is! Tell Thor to go for the head? Or much earlier cut of Thanos's hand? Or take the stones off the gauntlet? No one thought to do this, but in Endgame, Thanos does it. Strange then... saw this, yes? Cause he knows they won there. Yes, the power stone can vaporize people, but the soul stone? space stone? Starlord also survived the power stone. and then just on and on with plot conveniences or character choices to lead to the action. Thanos wasn't unstoppable through merit or earned choices, but just because, and this laziness echoed into the rest of the marvel franchise. They couldn't clean up their writing or didn't care and I was done. I've seen some stuff, skipped some stuff, but I used to watch all of it before Endgame.
>>
>>220168682
Avengers, just watched the first two Guardians of the Galaxy after that because I like space opera. Think I'm gonna try to watch most of them up to Endgame though just to see some spectacle, rewatched Iron Man last night and it's crazy how a movie that could not have been made today turned into this huge soi thing.
>>
>>220177200
It'll never not be funny that they just reconnected everything else after that
>>
>>220168682
2013 when the twitter wars happened.
>>
>>220168682
I haven't as I'm watching daredevil born again
>>
>>220168682
I've never been a big fan of that cinematic universe, although I have to say that escaping the hype surrounding Infinity War and Endgame was nearly impossible.
My friend took me to see Eternals, Shang-Chi and the Blue Beetle, and it was the biggest nothingburger ever. They should have killed those movies after Endgame.
In retrospect, I think I only really liked the first Guardians of the Galaxy.
>>
Time travel ruined it for me. It's a terrible concept and ruins any emotional stakes.
>>
>>220180339
yea it just erases any sacrifice since anyone can be brought back if the writers want to do it
>>
I'm glad I didn't meme myself into hating these movies, because we'll never have another cinema event like it. But it did get pretty lame after Endgame, with a few exceptions here and there. I think the first one I didn't watch was Quantumania.
>>
>>220168682
I've never owned or even read a comic book. I cannot tell one Avengers movie from the rest despite having seen them. I believe these statements alone make me a better person than anyone who has or can.

>Those really popular movies? Yeah, I didn't watch those. I'm too cool for that shit.

You can cut the act. You're not fooling anybody.
