It’s funny because people were talking about how they were bad before they even got really big.
I remember a “Every Frame A Painting” episode talking about how their scores are basically rubbish (this was specific to marvel). Similarly about their bland color palettes, repeated story lines and CGI sky monster endings. I think in hindsight it will be a little cringe.
Spielberg and Lucas were on the money when they compared them to Westerns, and I’ve always wondered if there’s a sociological phenomenon buried in there. Some sort of nostalgic cultural ideal that gets seeded in one generation to sprout a generation or two later?
Not the person you replied to, but I doubt it personally. Usually “comics” refers specifically to the western Marvel/DC stuff, not Japanese manga where things are very different (from an outsider’s perspective like myself anyway)
I do not like comic book movies.
They’re just so tired

I quite liked them at first but how many do we need? It’s become so over saturated and I’ve long burned out of the genre.
Do comic books include Japanese manga?

I was just trying to carry the conversation.
