    It's true that all media has ideology, but on the other hand, trying to dig out any artistic meaning or greater message out of those movies is like trying to force blood out of stone

      The issue is that since all the messages and meaning are repetitions of the current hegemony, they seem invisible

      It's propaganda for billionaires. Only a few people in Marvel actually get to be people, the rest are relegated to background noise and unimportant collateral damage. These few people are unequivocally good, despite said collateral damage, because they always have good intentions. I mean shit, several superheroes' (batman, iron man) only real superpower is being rich. The Elon Musk/Tony Stark comparisons dumbasses make are no accident.

      Also they're super pro-military, Brie Larson literally says in an interview that Captain Marvel's real superpower is being in the air force lmao
