When did /co/ became the worst board? Are casual Marvelfags to blame?

The reason Luke Cage and Jessica got good reviews while Iron Fist got bad reviews is identity politics, though.

Honestly, you say that but DC fans are just as bad.

Company wars is cancerous and should just stop entirely.

But there are no real reviews for WW out yet.

We aren't allowed to be excited for Marvel Movies or acknowledge they were great after they come out, because if the MCU produces any less than a Stanley Kubrick art house masterpiece its shit whereas the DCEU can make turd after turd but we're all expected to be unconditionally hyped for every new film that comes out.

If a new Marvel Movie isn't an “Avengers tier” pop culture defining revolution then they claim it was a dud, that "People aren't even talking about it", that "I don't even know anyone who cares Marvel movies anymore", that "the bubble has burst." Chastising it with increasingly brazen parroted criticisms that dubiously never go into any more specifics or detail than what can be gleamed from the trailers.

All those box office bucks and records broken don't matter either, because making more money isn’t proof of quality (“muh bayformers”), but when it comes to DC, "hey look at all the money BVS and SS made despite everyone claiming they were shit!"

And all the pop culture adoration for the MCU with everyone on social media, TV and the streets singing its praises doesn't count because popularity isn’t proof of quality, but, by god, you better believe there’s a sales chart waiting to be posted at a moment’s notice detailing Halloween Costume, Hot Topic and Toy sales should anyone doubt the DCEU’s popularity.

As for those critic reviews and movie aggregate sites, don’t bother bringing them up because “Disney bribes everyone with Mouse Money” and Rotten Tomatoes (despite being owned by Warner Bros) is clear proof of this, but at least we can still count on the Oscars (with judges who don't even watch most the movies awarded) to recognize true greatness.

And should you ever wear one of these trolls down into admitting or even implying the MCU is better than the DCEU that doesn’t mean jack squat because DC still has better Batman cartoons, better Batman comics, better Batman video games and better Batman Lego sets than Marvel.

Maybe partially, but Iron Fist was legitimately terrible. No fight choreography, hamfisted plot, you name it. JJ and Luke Cage were at least passable.

Wonder Woman fags are even worse than Snyder MoS/BvS fags

I mean at least Batman is a cool guy, but forcing yourself through Gadot's laughable "performance" just for some on-screen Diana is just sad

In any case, Wonder Woman at it's best won't be as good as Iron Fist at it's worst. How can anything in that movie POSSIBLY be better than Howard and Ward Meacham?
>>
>>92611786
No, it's just one anon, you can tell by the way he keeps repeating the phrase Critical Success/Flop. He's in a number of threads spouting the same.

This single anon in no way represents DC's fans, I'm confident that he's not even a comic or cartoon fan, just a shitposter starting company wars, it's best just to ignore him
>>
>>92611860
Iron Fist was great

Critics just hated it because he was white

Blunder Womyn is a massive pile of shot though
>>
>>92611750
I suppose last year when the DC fans were crying "MARVEL SHILLS" and "CRITICS WERE BRIBED" when BvS was a critical flop was apart of my imagination. It's still going on to this day.

That said, it doesn't matter. Company wars are pointless and you can enjoy whatever you like.

I'll say THIS I BADLY would like Wonder Woman to be good/critically/financially sucessful (I don't think it will, because I don't think most of the audience of cape films goes to see movies with women in leading role) but good pre-release buzz for a DCEU movie means less than shit, every movie in the DCEU had people walking out early screenings tweeting about how w/e the fuck they just saw was about to change the game completely.

They're not "sponsored", they were invited to the premiere. The invited hundreds of critics and industry people and comic writers, including critics who trashed the previous DC movies and allowed them to freely voice their opinions on social media.

This week there's going to be nationwide pre-screenings for people selected at random so if they still say it's good, you're out of excuses.

I don't think that anon said anything about Iron Fist.

Perhaps you should be less asshurt about being on the losing side of a dumb company war? None of this stuff matters, bruh. Rather than attacking a bunch of strawmen to make yourself feel better, just watch good movies or do other stuff you enjoy.

Recently I watched Green Room and The Witch. They were pretty good, maybe you should watch them too?

>tfw the barely alternative anime/manga spotlight has moved on from One Piece to Jojo.

Happy for all the Jojos out there but it hurts knowing One Piece won't be relevant in the west again until there's another Marineford tier arc.

What was the big thing that made people in the west take notice of Jojo?

Except the anon the guy you were replying to was quoting didn't say any of that, so, clearly, not everyone you're talking to is coming at this from the same place or with the same logic.

As for those guys? Only one even said Iron Fist was good, the other just said WW will be worse.

>>92612289
I've seen it, thanks for the advice though. Anyway I know this person is probably impossible to reach, but it'd be cool if just one of these companywars peeps could just calm the fuck down and learn to not care that the company that owns the company that makes their favourite comics is being badmouthed for making shit film. FFS Warner Bros isn't even DC, it's just the guys that own DC.

Anyway, the BLAME! movie just finished downloading, so I'm gonna go see if it's any good.

Its incredibly distinct weirdness made it a meme-magnet. As somebody introduced through the PS1 game, I've actually found it somewhat reaffirming to see people losing their minds over something I've known and loved for so long.

As for One-Piece, hopefully it will get some Western spotlight as we move into the final arcs.

In another thread i was talking to a guy about how Snyder must've misinterpreted TDKR since he stated that Batman kills a ton of people in it, and he eventually started REEEEEEEEEing about i must be ignorant of the comic if i disagree with those words, and that if anything it's the fault of Frank Milker's poor writing if people don't get that his Batman is a frequent murderer

You tell me. The mental gymnastics to rationalize these movies are insane

Perhaps it's the work of an enemy. I'm sure the strawman of your choice is to blame.

>>92611590
Can't say anything about WW since it isn't out yet but as for Iron Fist, the critical reception was rightfully criticized. For a very simple reason that every negative critical review all took umbrage at the casting of Finn Jones casting prior to the shows release due to him being asian. Compounded by the reviews all mentioning that same pisstivity.
However when the public watched it the response was more grounded and the only main problems they had where shitty fight scenes, boring plot and bad writing.
Wonder Woman's may end up having the reverse effect, where critics will have a circle jerk over the first female lead superhero film while audiences may not enjoy it.

They made the ongoing anime, and it's currently playing on Toonami, so it got the One Piece treatment.

I mean, I'm glad Araki is finally getting the Western notice he should always have, but at the same time, my friends who watch more entry-level-shit yet are somehow less socially aware than I are now continually quoting shit from it that I know for a fact they haven't seen or read beyond Facebook memes.

I can only assume that you have both never read any Iron Fist, AND never watched any martial arts or wuxia film period.

Considering JJ's choreography consisted entirely of camera changes and people jumping backwards, and LC's was just drunken punchouts, yes Iron Fist had the best choreography after DD, by virtue of just having it.
