      Oh no! People enjoying something you don’t! It’s a travesty, and must be stopped!

          And I’m sorry you have to worsen your life by doing so. It’s not healthy to be so negative.

            I can guarantee virtually zero negative repercussions by holding this opinion. On the other hand, it seems to have really affected you and others.

              It must really bug you to see so many people being happy while you stay depressed and despondent.

                They’re “depressed and despondent” because they judge comic movie fans? This is some prime Dr. Phil level psychology right here.

      Can you name one superhero movie that follows the plot of the OP comic?

      The closest I can think of is Thanos killing half the people in the universe and the heroes trying to stop him. You’re on Thanos’s side?

        None and all of them. The video has been posted before but the essence is that the overwhelming part of Marvel’s films deals with the folloing scenary:

        Bad guy tries to change something, often for legitimate reasons. God guys stop bad guy and everything stays the same. Even when people try to change something in a good way there is always something that goes horribly wrong.

          The hypothesis falls apart when the author ties the real world problems of poverty, injustice and ecological disasters to the superheroes negligence.

          1. The premises of the movies are that they are grounded in the real world. As such if superheroes transformed the world it would no longer be a recognizable setting for movie audiences.

          2. 2 hours of showing Iron Man digging wells in Africa isn’t entertaining.

          3. The ability of an individual, even if superpowered, to change society is extremely limited. We have the example of Bill Gates having spent decades and tens of billions just to irradicate a single disease. What is Captain America going to do to control health care costs? Beat cancer cells in a petri dish?

        I don’t watch them, because I don’t enjoy Disney spoonfeeding me low effort, regurgitated swill on the quarterly.

          So you… object to the idea of what you think the movies are like, to the point that you have no idea what they’re like?

          … And that sounds reasonable to you?

              The issue isn’t that you’re not well informed.

              The issue is that, when confronted with being wrong about something you’re uninformed about, you double down and act like an ass.

                All I ever said was that I’ve begun judging people that enjoy these movies, and stated that I believe the movies are trash. These are all subjective statements, and just because they don’t agree with your opinions, doesn’t make them inherently wrong.

                Get a grip on yourself.

                    You found the quote function. Thank you for consolidating my comment. Please note the use of words such as “believe” and “opinions.”

                    Why? I’m not anti-cartoon by any means. I just primarily think that most Marvel and DC movies are low effort, consumer brain rot.

                    I will say that DC has a slightly better track record, though. And when I say Marvel, I mostly mean the MCU. There were some decent Marvel films outside of the MCU. I’ll fuck with some X-Men, Blade, etc.
