Mine is that the Disney+ shows should not have any impact on the movies, that they should just be on their own.

I also enjoyed the Captain Marvel movie, and even the Marvels was pretty decent compared to the rest of marvel’s recent crap. But they have female leads, so I guess they’re tainted with original sin.

Most of the female heroes are extremely boring. Not because they’re females, but because their writers suck.

Most of the male heroes are boring and poorly written. And yet people are more angry about the female heroes than the male ones. You can’t pretend it’s about quality at this point.

For real, they haven’t done anything interesting with Hulk in 15 years, the 2008/09 (I can’t quite remember) movie was average at best, after that it’s been a cameo fest because they cannot make new Hulk movies until they get the rights back, his best appearance was maybe in Thor Ragnarok, and yet nobody craps on Hulk.

I will respectfully disagree, I think Nolan’s Batman series was both a good comic book adaption and a great movie series that could stand on its own. Early Marvel has some really exciting storylines and characters too. My personal fav is Captain America and the Winter Soldier. I think the Marvel Netflix shows also had really strong writing and great male and female leads. I loved Daredevil, Punisher and Jessica Jones (and even Luce Cage to some extent thanks to Mike Colters portrayal). In my ideal scenario - I’d like to see epic writing that matches or surpasses this era to emerge. Whether this features an all female cast or all male, or a mix of everything in between is inconsequential to me.

The good Marvel females are all related to the X-Men, so they aren’t around.
