It's not cinema, it's user retention

Because I work in a nerd-adjacent field, I’ve been asked a lot over the last few weeks whether I was going to go and see Thunderbolts, and every time I’m asked I give the same answer: lol absolutely not.

    As a casual Marvel fan, I feel like people need to get over themselves now. And allow Marvel movies to settle into a niche after like 10 years of domination at the cinema. Not everyone has to like everything all the time (on a side rant: this is something that pisses me off about the anti woke crowd too, acting like fucking everything has to revolve around them at all times and like people aren’t allowed individual tastes and options).

    Let comic book fans enjoy comic book movies. Good for you if you don’t like them, here’s a trophy for your stunning bravery in displaying that you too have individual tastes that don’t always match with the crowd. You’re half way there to realising that you’re not entitled to everything all the time and that people should be allowed to enjoy things even if you don’t.

      I feel like you’re acting like it’s a criminal act to say a marvel movie is bad. If it’s bad, it’s bad. So what, why would you get worked up over someone thinking a movie is bad? Saying something is bad isn’t a rejection of others opinions, it’s just one opinion. No media is immune to this, quality or not
