I find the Marvel movies to be quite cohesive. They have a vision for the universe and how everything pieces together. Your enjoyment of said universe may vary.

That should be fun. Go for it. I'm going Friday.

I don’t love Endgame. It’s good. I really hope these early reports arent overstating all that much. I’d love this to be as good as they’re all saying for all my MCU pals.

Everyone knows you don't like these movies, tree.

You don't have to keep reminding us. We all think you're really cool.

I mean that tonally, thematically, they're all over the place. As for the broad story, they hold together but they're just mostly unbearable. OK, I'll shut up now.

Tonally they're remarkably cohesive. Aesthetically, too. Not sure about "thematically" but I'm gonna say the variances are pretty tame and nothing out of the ordinary for superhero movies.

There's a lot you can criticize about the MCU. Cohesiveness ain't it. These movies are cohesive to a fault.

Or, more precisely, you can criticize them for being too cohesive. It's frustrating when so many filmmakers default to the Marvel house style, probably my biggest gripe with the series.

What I meant is, not sure what the word is for it, I guess... one moment it's going for romantic, sweet, then the next second it's trying to be hilarious (but I never find it slightly funny, maybe that's my problem), then it's super action packed WOW, then it's romantic again... constant whiplash from one mood to the next.. doesn't feel like a cohesive thing to me

Oh you mean within the individual films, not the franchise as a whole

Yeah... but they all seem like they do this... I guess it's been a while since I watched Winter Soldier, cause I remember enjoying that one quite a bit... And some of the early Iron Men... Maybe it's just the newer ones that've been doing this or maybe I've changed in how I watch these

Well... how is anyone posting in this thread of any importance? Just because I don't like the movies my posts are less important? I'm interested in the fandom of these movies because to me they seem so bad. I'm trying to figure it out.

I don't go into the GoT thread and shit on the show because it's not for me. So, there's that.

I didn't realize this thread served any single purpose... The subject is simply the title of the movie... I have thoughts about this movie so I posted them...

You’re full throttle trolling at this stage. You made your point repeatedly and numerously and yet still derailing discussion with the same thing over and over and over.
I don’t know how you’re let away with it tbh.

You got nothin else to do?

I don't think I'm trolling.

I'm just sitting here at work, flipping through RM and this is a very active topic. I'm interested in the amount of interest in this movie. Just chiming in with my opinion from time to time. Sorry if it bothers you but I don't think there are rules against that. If you would just ignore me I'd probably just stop posting. I spend more time defending myself than anything. I'm allowed to have an opinion, too.
