What was the message in this movie? To chill out and have a senpai? But all the problems were solved with extreme violence...

In many ways I enjoyed it but it also felt like a series of dark and sad things strung together just to evoke a reaction. Kind of like playing Hurt in the trailer. Sort of cheap.

>>90531712
>But all the problems were solved with extreme violence...

Nigga they literally watch Shane in the movie, the movie even ends with a recitation of the final speech from that movie. Do you really not understand what they're trying to say?
>>
>>90531712
If I had to make a correlation, it would be either to the movie "Live By Night" or Niko Bellic's arc in GTA IV:

More or less, its a group of people, criminals, a family of sorts, looking for a shelter where to prosper and live out their days in peace. Life, as always, has another plan for them. They can never escape the violence, and as if a Greek tragedy, their lifes will never be the same. Hunted by the sins of their past. Always outlaws, always being persecuted.

Thats why I find it a great western, as those are the themes of those kind of films. There's only redemption in death.

Oldboy could also be a parallel in the way the events unfold.
>>
>>90531712
It's a character study you dense faggot
>>
>>90531880
Don't forget that a classic western theme is that of "violent men are necessary to create the foundation for a peaceful society in a violent world, but once that foundation is in place, they - as part of the old order - must perish with it".

It was the point of Shane and it was the point of Logan. Logan was necessary for the kids to get to Canada, but he couldn't go with them.

>>90531880
I see, there is something to that, huh. Admittedly I've never seen Shane and some asshole was on his phone during that part of the movie so I kind of missed it.

Does anyone else feel like the whole "Wolverine won't pop his claws because he accidentally killed the X-Men" arc from the comic would have made that arc far more satisfying though?

Making it all the fault of Charles seemed kind of like a cop out and an excuse to take advantage of the R rating for more claw violence. I actually got kind of bored of the headstabs by the end, would have been cooler if he'd been holding back for most of the movie and then we get to see the real gore.

No way. It makes no sense for Logan to be the way he is if he's the one who was directly responsible for killing the X-men. He'd have blown his brains out immediately. Also, who would have forced him to do it?

Made a lot more sense for it to be Charles.

In the movie, Logan is succumbing to the weight of his past. Being the killer of the X-men would be gratuitous.

Nah, he saw the real Logan before he died.
But he still died fully knowing that he hurt and killed many people with degenerative desease psychic episodes.

>>90532869
I liked that. He was originally remorseless about nearly killing everyone in the casino to protect Laura, but later regretted doing so, recalling a similar incident where there were actual fatalities.

Still, would've liked to have had a clip that showed him actually killing everyone in the X-Mansion though.

>>90532519
Well, personally I believe that the "Charles exterminated the X-Men" gives it a harder foundation. Makes it a harder tragedy. Lets rewind to the metaphor of Charles being a kind of father to Logan, and granpa to X-23:

It is horrible for brothers to massacre eachother, but Logan already killed his bloodkind, Sabretooth. I find it savage that a father, the figure Charles imposes over the school and the x-men, kills his closest kind. His own kind, his people. Seeing him devolve into a fragile old man, having a brain with the destruction capacity of an atomic bomb, its far much more tragic, if you ask me.

Also, if Logan had killed the X-Men, he would have gone into solitude. Thats how it unfolded in the Graphic Novel, and it wouldn't have worked with this world, much less fucked than the one Miller wrote.


I still want a goddamn proper explanation.

Nah, Toy Story 1 is usually considered better than 2, and many think of 3 as a retread of most of the same concepts and events of 2, just done better.

LOTR, I'm not sure what the popular opinion is currently. Over the years I've heard each of the movies called the best and the worst.

With Wolverine it's simple, Origins was atrocious, The Wolverine was serviceable, Logan was good.

>>90534476

>>90534530
I'm not the other guy, but I'd say it's still debatable which is better, WS or CW.

I think CW had a lot of great moments, some of the best in the MCU, and handled the ideological conflict as well as the characters' feelings reasonably well. It's highs are higher, its lows are lower, but WS is overall tighter and more consistent in terms of quality.

I hate to say it, but everytime that fat black kid showed up during the finale, I just started laughing. Like, we're watching this horrible situation with kids running away from being goons, but when they gave us a 20 sec shot of the fat kid stumbling away, I just lost it. And then when Logan got fatally wounded and we saw all the kids, the fucking fat black kid is just front and center and took me completely out of it because of how goofy he looked.

They were basically saying that the old ways are dead, they killed Logan, or "Wolverine" because he was a relic. No more X-Men movies, its dead.

>>90534476
Civil war was fine except for the fact that they had to shoehorn in the entire plot of the event into 2 hours. If Civil war was a 2 part movie, or if they alluded to it more directly in a previous Avengers it would have been really great.

It was a nice farewell for Wolverine and Charles, but what about the rest of them? What about our boi Scott Summers?

The movie in general was pretty hit and miss. There were superb moments throughout, but dotted between moments that were stupid.

I thought they were an offshoot/evolution of Weapon X.

Thats what I thought the whole Alkali-Transigen was, Alkali Lake.

>>90537964
the scientist even said he was the son of the Weapon X scientist.

It would have made perfect sense to have Creed there. Hell, they could have used Daken instead of literally nega-Logan.

So since the Logan in Logan is Original Timeline Logan inside the body of the Logan that existed up to that point in New Timeline, does he still have the Heart Parasite from The Wolverine?

Is that what was weakening him and he didn't notice?

Right?! Having it be some feral, wigged out, tested on Sabertooth, would have been much better than young, evil, clone, Wolverine.

It seems like the "timeline" is out of the window in this movie, they reference the Statue of the Liberty and he has an Adamantium bullet. So it takes bits of what it wants, and the film makers just think "fuck it, it's old Wolverine.

Similar to when he loses his Adamantium claws and goes bone claw in The Wolverine, and then has metal claws in DoFP.

Nope.
>>
>>90538542

Just having Charles and Logan on their own, then having Transigen keep making references to something able to track him, or a tracker, would make the reveal of Sabertooth a shock/reveal to both the audience and Wolverine.

>>90538173
How can so many people who've watched the movie still not get this. Logan the movie exists in a timeline where everything seems to have happened, but *only* a quarter of it was true. Even then, it didn't happen like it was depicted. That means the comic books Laura reads and the movies we saw all have hints of the truth in them but in Logan's world, people died and none of it was glamorous.
>>
The one thing I didn't like

The conspicuous as fuck product placement for Harrah's. If it'd just been some rando fancy hotel (why did it need to be so upscale at all though?), it'd have been fine but it just seemed so out of place to see HARRAH'S everywhere.

>>90538680

>>90538638
This would work really well if they'd maintained Sabertooth in the series. It would probably be awkward to just have him appear halfway through because I'm sure most people have already forgotten Origins or that he was even in the first X-Men (albeit as just a mute, lame henchman).

>>90538726
Adamantium was retarding his healing factor so he began to age/get sick.
>>

Yes, adamantium poisoning. Logan outright says it in the latter part of the movie.

Or maybe have a flashback showing the "Westchester incident" and include Sabertooth in that somehow.

Maybe the team get back from a mission, w/ captured Sabertooth/other brotherhood members. Audience thinks "Oh cute, cameo's from the old cast". Charles fucks up, X-Men die. Audience is reminded about Sabertooth, enough to make his return make sense.

But that extreme violence is why Logan can never have a family. He knows it for a moment, and then he dies.

It's not a movie with an ideal answer or message. Violence is sometimes necessary to protect the good things in the world, but it ultimately destroys you as a person no matter whether you used it for good or ill. That is one of the tragedies of reality. The speech from Shane echoes that; 'There's no living with a killing. There's no going back from it. Right or wrong, it's a brand, a brand that sticks'. That's the closest thing the film has to a message; engaging in violence scars your soul.

I liked Civil War more than Winter Soldier but it was definitely flawed. It should have just been about Cap/Bucky/Tony/T'challa, including the Avengers minus Hulk & Thor was a mistake. They feel shoehorned in and don't really have much of a purpose at all, except for maybe Scarlett Witch. Winter Soldier is great for the first 2/3 but once it turns into a CGI shitfest at the end I tune out.

But then again I think I'm the only person on this board that likes Iron Man 3 a lot. Like it's in my top 5 MCU films while everyone else has it in their bottom 5. But that might be because I like Shane Black a lot and didn't care at all about the whole Mandarin twist since I never cared for that character in the comics

>>90534261
LOTR I kinda consider one long as fuck film broken into 3 long as fuck parts, so I don't think of it as 1, 2, 3. If I had to rank them I'd say 1>3>2, but that order might be different tomorrow, or even in an hour. They're all pretty consistent in terms of quality, though I understand why people like Fellowship the best.

Are there any other trilogies that stay consistently great from start to finish? And not trilogies like Indiana Jones where each film is individual, I'm talking about ones like Star Wars or Spider-Man or whatever. I know the Original Trilogy would have been great if George didn't change the Wookiees to Ewoks in Return of the Jedi. The Making of Return of the Jedi book has transcripts of the story conferences between Lucas, Kasdan, and Marquand and it's almost heartbreaking to see Lucas tossing out these great ideas in favor of less interesting ones. I like Return of the Jedi but it's nowhere near the level of A New Hope/Empire.

Also that quote where he wanted Luke to put on Vader's helmet at the end and say "Now I am Darth Vader" is completely different when read in the context of the conference. When people found out about it they treated it as one of Lucas's terrible ideas but if you read it with context you can tell its clearly a joke.
>>
>>90538542
Only thing I would have changed about the ending is have Laura get X-24's attention by saying "hey, bub!" or something like that before shooting him. Kinda miffed that there wasn't a single "bub" in the film, or even a cigar. Nitpicks, though.

Pierce's death was kinda anticlimactic too, especially considering that so many things in the film were set up early on for a satisfying pay off (adamantium bullet, Charles's speech about family, etc) but his death was just kinda like "oh we need to kill this guy but Logan and Laura are busy with the other guy... fuck it just have the kids kill him". I'm surprised they didn't have the kids inject him with the serum to make him overdose and die painfully (didn't they mention a few minutes earlier that taking too much will kill you?)

It's definitely the funniest of the MCU films without resorting to humor through quips ala Avengers/Guardians, and it's one of the few films in the series that just feels different structurally from other superhero movies. I hated Ant-Man a lot (granted I had low expectations after the Edgar Wright thing) but what pissed me off the most was how by the numbers it was. It felt like it was written by a computer program, just the most basic origin story they could have possibly written. I'll never understand how that movie was so well received.

>>90546674
Ehhhh Back to the Future Part 3 is a noticeable drop in quality. It's kinda like Return of the Jedi where it's jarringly straightforward as a follow up to a sequel that took a lot of risks tonally and just in terms of doing something different with the story.

Is the third act/third film in a trilogy just inherently doomed? I still can't think of any examples where it's as good as the first two, excluding LOTR.

And don't say Revenge of the Sith. I rewatched it a few weeks ago and I'm 99% sure people like it the best out of the prequels because it's an improvement from TPM and AotC, but on its own it still isn't a good movie. The last 5 minutes are a fucking joke, it feels like someone reminded Lucas of all the things he forgot to mention in the films so he was just like fuck it and stuck it all at the end. Death Star, Force Ghosts, Yoda going to Dagobah, it's actually kinda funny how absurd it is. The order 66 scene was good, though. I'll give him that.

That's because it's not a superhero movie. It's Shane Black wanting to do Lethal Weapon, or Last Action Hero, or Kiss Kiss Bang Bang,... but he has to put Iron Man somewhere because Marvel is producing.
There's a reason why I fucking hate Iron Man 3: it doesn't give a shit about Iron Man, only about Tony Stark.

Yeah I can see why you wouldn't like it, but I'd rather watch a good movie that has Iron Man in it than an Iron Man movie that's just okay. I don't care enough about the character outside of the films, and by the time Iron Man 3 came out two of his three previous appearances were in a bad film (Iron Man 2) and a meh one (Avengers).

The first Iron Man is the perfect blend of light and dark tone-wise. It's a shame that Marvel has found their tonal niche after The Avengers and stuck to it. I guess Winter Soldier was closer to the first Iron Man but then it reverted back to regular MCU stuff by the end. The fact that the highway fight takes place in the same film as 3 flying aircraft carriers crashing into buildings/a river while Cap/Falcon break the laws of physics established in the film left and right is mind-boggling. Civil War had the opposite problem where the airport fight was super cheesy but the final "battle" with Cap/Bucky and Iron Man was grounded and emotional.

Infinity War is gonna be ridiculous and I'm worried the Phase 4 films are going to avoid being grounded in order to 1-up Infinity War or at least not seem like a downgrade in terms of scale.

>tfw we will never get a simple Hawkeye movie where it's just him, his dog, and maybe Wanda doing something on a smaller scale

Logan had good trailers, though. Didn't give away any the plot aside from Logan/Charles protecting X-23 Last of Us style.

Maybe I just missed it and was unaware going into it but X-24 being played by Hugh Jackman was a big surprise. Same with Richard Grant being in the film but that might be because I just like him as an actor and didn't know he was in it.

I mean, it makes sense, we don't know the properties of adamantium and for all we know it's reactive and basically puts wolverine through heavy metal poisoning and the source being indestructible doesn't help.

We know that adamantium stops his healing factor.
And that's the exact problem Logan was having.

He wasn't being poisoned, he did that to himself with the drinking, fighting, and being well... Wolverine.

He was killing himself, the adamantium decay was merely stopping him from healing from it.

I like the Mandarin twist, it's a really clever idea, but the movie blows its load there. Its bioshock syndrome: after the reveal, it's all down hill. Guy Pierce doesn't get to do much or make much of an impact and the bad guys' powers feel really inconsistent. Also unsatisfying how Tony blows up Adrian with the suit, a cool application and payoff, only for Pepper to actually finish him off right after. Feels like it should've been reversed.

I don't hate it, and I appreciate that it actually feels like a Shane Black film, but I'm kind of cold to it on the whole.

>>90545910

Mandarin twist is weird, because it's actually pretty fun one. Trouble is that the REAL bad guy is then utter shit, and Kingsley's fake-Mandarin was awesome until the reveal.

Caliban is from The Tempest by motherfucking Shakespeare.

It's about an old wizard named Prospero marooned on an island with his granddaughter. Prospero has forsaken science for magic to get his revenge against his family who betrayed him. By the end he gives up the magic to be happy.

So it works a bit, Professor X having lost control of his "magic" and Laura being less of a moral compass.
Caliban hunted down other mutants and is now repentant.

It works.

I think this song works more than Hurt. The film really had this feeling of everything just getting worse and worse.

It's funny, but this film works so well by throwing away everything about the Hollywood cinematic universe tactic. With all other X-Men dead, there is no help coming. This film wasn't there for fans to get excited over their knowledge of the source material with winks or anything. Hell, having Xavier be the death of the X-Men is just really bleak end to everything before it.
Point being, I don't think any DC or Marvel film could reach a film like this because they are trying to keep having films lead into future films. If they made an Iron Man 4 where RDJ dies in it, it won't sting as much because it would be used to set up some future MCU film, his friends will still be around, and even if Tony fails, there are twenty more heroes to take over. With Logan, it felt like they went "This is it. Don't expect Gambit to show up."
>>
>>90550336
I feel like trailers should omit the last 30 minutes of their films. That way, you don't know what the climax is.
>>
>>90531712
>What was the message in this movie?
That Wolverine is ballin' as fuck?
>>
>>90545910
I feel that Marvel Studios has established themselves as crowd pleasers that they had to include the full Civil War hero lineup. RDJ and Evans aren't guaranteed after Infinity Wars, and some people already complained that Civil War was too small in the film. Really think about it, people saw the airport fight and thought "This needs MORE characters"
It reminds me of something some youtuber said back when the first Avengers came out. They wanted the X-Men, FF, Spider-Man and all that to be in the MCU so that they can all fight Galactus in one epic film. I thought about it, and it's bullshit. Galactus fights don't matter if you have one character or hundreds of characters fighting him. The results will be the same. Everyone ineffectively hits him, and he's too large for it to be an interesting blow by blow fight. And this is kind of the flawed mentality of fans, they think more = better when more means less in terms of a movie. If they keep adding more characters and such to films, then the screen time for each character becomes less and less.

Which is why I think Logan works so damn well. It wasn't about adding more to the X-Verse. It wasn't about setting up X-23 for the X-Men, it wasn't some cop out "Oh, X-23 will travel back in time" bullshit. It was a grim and brutal tale of little hope. Logan worked because it wasn't winking to the fans over and over. There weren't any easter eggs in this film, there weren't any Stan Lee cameos, it was just a straight up film.

Autists often lack the capacity to feel empathy for others in the same way normal people do.

If anything, it's autistic to overlook the man clearly in anguish, who is hurting, who wants to get away from the situation but can't than to have the capability to empathise with Logan and feel bad for him.

Not that I'm arguing that the scene wasn't mildly comedic, I'm just saying that laughing at it is more autist like than not doing so.

This. Disliking the Mandarin twist just because it differs from the comics is dumb; it's a pretty ballsy move for a superhero film, all things considered.

The issue is that Killian is pretty dull as the actual villain.

They were originally going to have Rebecca Hall play the villain, which would have been way more interesting, but Isaac Perlmutter vetoed the idea because he didn't believe a female villain would sell well.

I'm a big fan of Shane Black, and if you look at it as one of his movies, it's great. It makes perfect sense, the humor, the twists, the kid, everything.

If you look at it as a Marvel movie, it kind of sticks out. I like that it deals with Tony's PTSD from almost dying in space, but in general it doesn't quite fit.

In short, I love it but I understand that people may not like it, or even understand what Black was going for.

Agreed, but that's probably what bothers me about the latter part of the movie. Everything is supposed to be getting worse, but suddenly there's all the kids alive and well. And they've got a cure, at least temporary, for Logan's illness.

It felt cheap, after all the suffering, to see a bunch of kids using powers on the reavers.

My biggest disappointment with Logan was the lack of MUH JEAN, especially coming off of DoFP's ending.

I figure that was more of a shock thing, since his consiousness with memories of the old timeline suddenly popped into that body.

Suddenly having two sets of memories in his head probably fucked with him more than having amnesia did.

Also the whole thing with Logan killing the X-Men is... he isn't actually physically capable of killing the X-Men. They have all sorts of ways to shut him down. Kitty could warp him through the floor, Iceman could freeze him, Storm could electrocute him until he stopped moving, Gambit could detonate his limbs, Jean could levitate him a meter in the air and spin him around until he puked... or was Jean not alive at that point in his timeline?

I'm probably going to sound like a retard here but did I miss something important about why they didn't just kill the kids? They were failures who were being euthanised when they got freed and since X-24 is the new thing I can't see why they were trying to keep them around. Only thing I can think of is tissue samples or some such, but they don't need to be alive for that.

Also, why did they not just use adamantium bullets to kill Logan? Not a big comic reader so there's probably a good explanation for this.
>>
>>90572868
Probably just because it's so fucking rare. They don't have that much, and every bit they've got goes into experiments like Laura and X-24.

Also, neither Pierce nor Rice seemed to have killing Logan as their endgame, they just wanted the kids.
>>
>>90573492
I figured it was something like that. Logan was such a thorn in their sides that it might've been worth it, though.
>>
>>90572868
>failures who were being euthanised

I thought this too and was confused but thinking back the nurse says in the video that the one day they were rounding all the kids up to "put them to sleep" which I know can mean "to kill" but I think they were literally putting them to sleep, like coma/freezing them in case they needed them in the future.

Only way for it to make sense.
>>
>>90572868
What was it Rice was saying to Caliban? Something about taking personal responsibility for eradicating mistakes he had made (the artificial mutants)?
>>
>>90573664
That makes sense. Great movie but the general motive was really puzzling me.

>>90573716
Dead people are pretty heavily eradicated. The only one who's gonna survive a bullet is X-23 and getting everybody killed and failing your mission because you wanted to do it yourself seems like a bad plan - even if he wanted it initially, the fuckup at the family's household should really have given him pause for thought.

I wanted to re-watch some scenes earlier, so I looked up a shitty camrip on Primewire that as far as I could figure, was the Chinese release.

In it, X-24's head doesn't get blown to pieces when Laura shoots him. There's the sound, he falls, and that's it. Scene continues as normal.

The whole point of the final fight of the movie being against a younger Wolverine is that it's his greatest fear, himself being turned into a mindless weapon. Some people thought it should have been Daken, but I don't think they could have remotely built them up alongside the daughter story. X24 worked well for what it was.

>>90582608
He was. But that was also a callback to what Xavier said referring to having a family. It had a double meaning.
>>
>>90578341
Daken would have worked because he'd represent both a younger version of Wolverine, and the future that Logan fears for Laura.

Sabertooth would have worked because he's already Logan's evil mirror, a representation of the man he was and the monster he fears to be, but he's also his half-brother, and his wife's killer. Victor more than anyone else represents Logan's failed attempts at having a family. And Victor being lobotomized/controlled/experimented on by the Reavers, reduced to a feral pawn, would resonate even more with the theme of decay and loss.

I get that they may not want to tie Logan with Origins by bringing Victor into it, but it would add even more emotional depth to the story. And if >>90567679 is intentional, it shows that they're not that afraid to reference elements from the older, shittier movies.

But no, let's just toss another Wolverine clone into it. Let's name him X-24, because we didn't bother using the original reason for X-23's name.
>>
>>90582608
He says it right after she calls him daddy. It's clearly about the feeling of family that Charles was talking about, not about dying.

>>
>>90582646
>Daken would have worked because he'd represent both a younger version of Wolverine, and the future that Logan fears for Laura.
Daken would have been rough because they would have had to devote at least 15 minutes building out Daken's backstory, and it would have brought in daddy issues the movie didn't need.

It would have been a nice foil to Laura, but I don't think it would have worked with how they used X-24.

Sabertooth may not have worked either because remember that they already established that he can't survive the adamantium process. So that means that Wolverine would have just needed to slice him into tiny bits (which he's only ever been stopped from doing because he's been in PG-13 material for most of his existence).

>>90582731
>Sabertooth may not have worked either because remember that they already established that he can't survive the adamantium process

Could be explained with the green booster juice, which works as a control mechanism, i.e. he needs a regular dose to stay alive.
>>
>>90582731
Yeah, Daken would have taken a little bit of work, but it would have been enough for the scientist guy or someone to tell Logan "he's also your son"

Sabertooth's thing with adamantium, not that anyone would remember it, could have been written around by using the green drug, or saying that they perfected the process. Hell, the adamantium process could even be the reason he's mindless, and he could also be decaying like Logan, just kept in shape by the drug. Another paralel with Logan's state in the movie.

By the arrival in Eden, where Logan has passed out and woke twice in the car, once at the foot of the cliff, then wakes two more times at the hideout, I was pretty sure it was the Director or the screenwriter's fetish. Even Pierce and Caliban are regaining consciousness in this movie.

>>90582779
Daken is a rather shit comic book character, and normies could not be made to care about him at all in the course of a 2 hour movie with a 30 minute farm scene tacked on.

So they might as well have gone with "younger Wolvie". Honestly, Fuck Daken. Even his name sounds stupid said aloud.
>>
>>90582844
I agree Daken is rather arse, but the concept of the son that Wolverine failed, contrasted with the daughter that he's trying to save, is far more interesting than just a younger clone.

But that's also why I push Victor a lot harder, using him for that role has a lot more thematic depth than any other option.

Yeah, it's weird. It's been shown in canon that Wolverine's tattoos fade as he heals. Maybe he has them redone every day?

>I thought about it, and it's bullshit. Galactus fights don't matter if you have one character or hundreds of characters fighting him. The results will be the same. Everyone ineffectively hits him, and he's too large for it to be an interesting blow by blow fight.

This is mostly why I want the Black Order to be in the movies. Like, why get all those characters in an action movie/two-parter, and show concept art of two of them fighting something tentacles, when you're only gonna show them ganging up all at once on the bad guy while doing jack shit to him.

Hell, even in the original Infinity Gauntlet, the action lasted only for half of two issues, and most of it was Thanos shitting on everyone.

Thus, even if people here don't like Hickman's OCs for whatever reason, they're an excuse for characters to divide in groups and face their own threats instead of faceless mooks like in the previous two.

That's because the airport fight was a brawl between friends instead of an actual fight, it's why everyone stops on their tracks and shit gets serious when Rhodey gets shot down.

> I'm worried the Phase 4 films are going to avoid being grounded in order to 1-up Infinity War or at least not seem like a downgrade in terms of scale.

It can go both ways. The only way to 1-up Thanos with the gauntlet would be Beyonder -> Secret Wars IV; but then again, Avengers 2 was a step below the threat of Avengers 1, just with more characters.

Not the guy you're replying to

But what's the point of continuously trying to one up? It's basically an arms race. One movies says we'll have 5 superheroes, then another says we'll have 7, then another responds saying we'll have 12. Then the stakes will be a city could get destroyed, then in the next movie the country gets destroyed, next movie the entire planet, next the entire universe, next the whole multiverse.

What's the point of this? What's the point in having all movies getting bigger and louder if they don't incrementally amaze the audience by the same amount? It's just going to show diminishing returns, which is bad news for studios too since they are going to invest increasingly absurd amounts just got get better returns.

I hope we see more stories like Logan, stories that aren't afraid to show emotion and to evolve beyond the generic genre conventions of recent superhero movies (looking at the MCU,DCEU and Apocalypse).

>>
>>90587107
Continually upping the stakes implies a natural progression, as you see your heroes facing a continually bigger threat and showing that they're still able to come through at incredible odds.

That being said, it doesn't necessarily have to follow that pattern, like I said. The threats between IM2 and 3 were practically of the same type(an army of super armors and an army of super people), the Chitauri were a bigger threat than Ultron(despite Ultron causing more damage with Sokovia), and then the stakes going from "the world of NA/the world getting targeted", to accords that would restrain heroes instead of causing immediate damage, in the Cap films.

>stories that aren't afraid to show emotion and to evolve beyond the generic genre conventions of recent superhero movies

Civil War did that. One could argue about Strange doing that too, but then it can easily get shot down by the "journey of the hero" argument.
