Mine is that the Disney+ shows should not have any impact on the movies, that they should just be on their own.
“Hot take”
Is this some blogger again looking to score content?
Is there even a hot take you can have on Marvel besides “it’s all very good” anymore? What you see is what you get, and I think we’re all nauseous of the amount of content being shoved in our faces.
Most of these hot take threads do not in fact have many hot takes.
With the first wave of movies I was really excited and enjoyed them immensely. Now the novelty has long since worn itself out. The cinematic universe plot is convoluted to a point of blandness. The multiple universe angle is stupid in comics and aggravating in cinema. The streaming series (across the board) instead of getting me interested in the movies has instead inoculated me against all of the Disney IP’'s.
Not exactly Marvel related, but I’m an adult now. Where are the movies dealing with mature themes and relatable plots?

They’re rare but are out there. I watched I Saw the TV Glow last weekend, really really nice film.
I will back this recommendation - it felt like I finally began to understand the trans struggle with this well made movie. Plays like a fever dream and hits like a truck.
They are extremely boring with little to no real threat and tedious fights where you know who’s going to win anyway
Character development? Probably the only actual thing that dies
Overall? Meh.
I don’t hate it, but they’re not great either.
The MCU should have ended a little after Endgame. The MCU Earth is now fundamentally different than current Earth to the point where it is harder to write resonant stories in that Earth.
That the MCU had to reach into the idea of multiverses is a symptom that the plot baggage of the MCU is now a drag on the franchise.
Not really a big reader of the comics, but from my understanding the multiverse isn’t really a fringe topic. Seems like it’s been a pretty central aspect of the comics for decades.
Infinity War was a better Star Wars movie than most actual Star Wars movies
The Marvel universe is mainly there to create possibilities to make more money, not to tell a good story. Granted I have hardly seen any of the movies/series, but after Avengers I never saw a reason to. Marvel realised Avengers was good and now they pulled out as much stuff out of the universe to fill a seemingly endless stream of “storytelling”.
The only hot take for these types of surveys is: i don’t hate them.
What ever the subject is doesn’t matter. When you ask a group for input on their “hot take” devolves into a forum to shit on whatever the topic may be.
So my hot take is: I enjoy some of the movies while others I do not.
Right answer.
Cancel any movies project. And in 5 years start from 0, no connections with the previous movies.
Endgame is one of the worst movies of all time.
Finally I see this opinion somewhere! Everyone was raging about how it was the best movie ever and I was just “meh” right after I walked out of the cinema.
All the defensive I’ve seen basically boil down to “It’s the biggest most important movie ever, it can’t afford to waste time being interesting”.
It’s always been garbage. Not this multiverse or after im3 or whatever. The movies have always been trash.
I feel the same way. I don’t mind anybody liking them, but I just don’t see the appeal. To me they’re so tremendously boring that I can’t stand watching them.
They have good movies… for kids.
