Because there are superheros probably.

Not really a critique of anything. Storytellers will always tell stories about people with powers; they always have. Marvel at it’s peak was making good movies and it’s not because Captain America’s Shield has cartoon bounce powers. They’ve covered a lot of different genres in interesting ways, successfully. That’s like saying, all stories are they same because there’s characters in them.

I don't disagree at all, about to watch the Marvels myself. Moreso I've seen a lot of people argue that point, not that I was making it myself :p

Edit: I liked the movie, nothing groundbreaking but it was definitely fun

If no pavement was injured in the making of this movie then I think this might be a brave new choice for marvel. I thought Ragnorok was pretty earth shattering until I remembered Asgard is a different planet.

Lmao, now that you mention it, there was a lot of concrete broken.

Have you ever noticed that El Barto and Martin Prince are never in the same room at the same time?
