Be it books, movies, television series or physical reviews of camera’s and latest trends, this is my space to vent and so forth. For what ever reason we have failed as a society to bring ourselves to the conclusion that sometimes something is deficient in some way, or its sometimes just you the customer or end user. The latest in line for driving poor reviews naturally falls to Marvel Studio’s next several movies which are the Fantastic Four and Thunderbolts.
Of the two movies, Thunderbolts is giving me the hope that Marvel can bring out another movie that can recapture the vibe that the first Guardians of the Galaxy enabled. All second or tertiary characters and as far apart from the avengers as can be, and yet it brought home the bacon. I can say that however, I do not intend to watch the Fantastic Four until it releases on video on demand. The reason is simple, I have grown up and its time to realize that there is a difference in Marvel properties, that some are action movies that have comic book heros, and other’s are the closest that we will get to a video comic book.
You read comic’s as a kid, you obviously went from panel to panel and never bothered to worry if the plot was even remotely possible or only able to happen in comic’s. As an adult, your suspension of disbelief has changed and I personally think that’s what happened to She Hulk. A project that I personally did not like, but with a bit of introspection I came to the conclusion that what I liked had changed and simply recused myself from commenting on the show. That effectively a kid’s show got so much hate makes you remember that you can’t go home again, the boy you were at eleven or twelve, is not the same as the man that you have become and that affects your taste and I don’t really expect this reality to change and as long as money can be made from negativitity it will be.
