Zathras Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 So I just wanted to know if I am the only one around here who can't seem to start watching post-Endgame MCU? I don't have anything against it mind you, but I just felt so exhausted by the time Endgame was done and I felt it was a 20+ movie story that told its story. It seemed like a beginning, middle and an end. I have not seen the spidey movies mainly because well, MCU spidey to me works best as a supporting hero. I may see BW one of these days soon, but I skipped Wandavision because it didn't seem interesting to me. I never heard of Shang Chi until the movie. DR Strange with cumberbatch just seems like Tony Stark Lite, and I am indifferent to Cumberbatch as an actor. Overall it just seems the post-Endgame is the B Team, and it is really hard to top the avengers movies. Am I really missing out? Am I just a grumpy old man? I dunno. Please discuss.

Dark Wader Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 I’m still into it I guess and watching/enjoying the new content but I can sort of relate to where you’re coming from, so don’t think it makes you a grumpy old man. Endgame was the peak of the MCU, and I think now the saturation has settled in (even with a year break). A common complaint is that each of the movies feel like a long trailer for the next one and I’ve really felt that with the recent shows, even if I’ve enjoyed them.

Guest Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 The Disney+ stuff has been top notch. I’m excited for Spider-Man 3 and Dr Strange, but the latter is as a sequel to Wandavision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I suppose I should say that I am looking forward to the Spiderman 3 film, since it might actually tie the previous Sony Spidey incarnations together with the MCU. But outside that, so far I haven't been pumped for post Endgame MCU the same way I was, especially in the beginning. Maybe it is mostly the saturation and the high water mark the Avengers movies set. THe other thing I see is there is no character filling the big bad vacuum of Thanos. Like, they could bring in the Beyonder so easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Krawlie Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 It's Kang. I was hoping it'd be Doom, but it's gonna be Kang. He's already shown up. Sort of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tank Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 I definitely seem to be lacking in any excitement for new stuff-- I'm kinda just MEH about it. That said, I still watch it, and as evidenced by my posts. I tend to still really enjoy everything they do. Marvels and Thor 4 have my interest piqued. And Spider-Man.

Guest Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 It’s funny, because I haven’t seen a Spider-Man movie in the theater since Spider-Man 3 was the second movie in a double feature at the drive-in. So I have watched the last 4 movies at home, but it’s one of the two MCU movies I’m most likely to see in the theater. Doctor Strange 2 probably edges it out, if I had to pick one, because my wife loved Wandavision and is excited to see the next chapter, and that’s the most she’s ever cared about the MCU.

CoLA Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 I'm never bored of super hero movies and shows..unless they're really bad, like Catwoman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
