I don't care if it's all women or all black, I just don't want another Marvel movie. Ever.
Why? It's not like you are forced to watch them
Nobody said we were forced to. I don't want another one either. They ran superheros into the ground years ago. If they make another, I won't watch it. They're exhausting now.
And the movies I like still seem to manage to get financed (Dune, Poor Things...) so I don't need to care about what Marvel does.
There was a time when it felt like only superhero movies would make it to the cinemas, but it seems they over-did it and people got somewhat tired.
Why? It's not like you are forced to watch them
Aren't I though?
Are you though? I stopped watching before infinity war and haven't watched anything marvel since, outside of the one series I actually had interest in.
And yet I'm still inundated by advertising for each movie, making me keenly aware of the thing I don't want constantly rammed down my throat. I've come to expect it at fast food restaurants, but I can't even shop for groceries without Marvel trying to push something at me. I'm not actively watching Marvel movies, but they are still part of my life whether I want them there or not.
