I do hate the Marvel movies. I think they're lifeless, boring, trite stories. But I constantly wonder if my dislike of them just stems from getting older, from my tastes growing more specific, from becoming more and more myself. When I was a kid I loved summer blockbusters. Pirates of the Caribbean. Star Wars. Harry Potter. I can't remember what else there was. There must have been something? Pixar, I guess? Anyway, were those movies really any better than Marvel is now?

Yes. They were.

It's the children who are wrong.
