Marvel exec: “Hear me out. We literally just bring back all the Sam Raimi supervillains”
Fellow ghoul: “Oh, like write the same characters?”
Marvel exec: “No I mean literally the same actors portraying those particular versions of those characters coming from the Raimi universe”
Fellow ghoul: “......I love it!”
Honestly I know we all dunk on it because it sucks but at the same time, I feel like the passion is gone. Folks: were dunking for attention. Were dunking just to dunk. Thats why I move we place marvel dunks into the low effort bin, right next to their movies.
Dunking on MCU always kinda sucked because there's nothing there. The movies are made in a lab to appeal to the maximum amount of people globally and thus there isn't really anything to them. It's like dunking on Kim Kardashian. Yeah she's rich but she carefully avoids saying or doing anything controversial. With MCU, I don't even hate them, I just think they're boring af.
The marvel dunks are becoming as tired as the films themselves. Is this what Baudrillard meant about simulacrum
