Yesterday penguinz0 made a video about the current state of modern blockbusters and its something I think would be interesting to discuss here. In my opinion it would be for the best if the MCU was put out to pasture and the Disney monopoly was broken up.
It seems like more and more blockbusters have the sane tone, the same style and the same direction. Its like they are written and directed by the same handful of people. The Flash, Indiana Jones 5, and Ant Man 5 all felt like they had the same writers and directors. I place a lot of the blame for this on Disney. Ever since Disney Plus launched everything marvel put out has been so paint by numbers.
What do you all think. Would love to hear your thoughts on this.
I watched the first avengers movie, never watched MCU again. I watched Star Wars 7, never entered Star Wars universe again. Both times I was down to enjoy and both times I saw nothing but soulless cash grabs. Movies written by a board. Most modern movies are boring, specifically designed to please the most people, and make money. Not many people have a vision anymore. That being said, they’re still out there and there are plenty of movies I’m excited about coming or recently released.
