I think some parts of the internet are just angry at any Marvel movies now. I like this one precisely because I'm just there to turn my brain off, have fun, and awwww at the kitties. Felt like Barbie but without the moralizing. It's a breath of fresh air from the THE WORLD IS ENDING marvel after Endgame because the world is not going to end any harder than half the population dead.
Hard agree. Honestly that was precisely what I went into the film for. Velhani was fucking great, the flerken were adorable (so. Many. KITTENS!) and honestly the whole cast were clearly having a great time on set. As you say, not every Marvel movie needs to be "zomg the world is ending!1!1!!!!!1"
In short, I just want to watch fun movies and have fun watching them, without then being blasted with "this is an awful film, how dare they do this to us". I didn't like Mario, but that doesn't mean it doesn't deserve to exist.
I actually feel they should have stopped at Endgame because of what you say, what else is going to compare...? But then I watched Loki which was completely out of left field for me.
ohhh thanks for the recommendation. I'll get Disney+ later on to watch Ms Marvel. I'll watch Loki too then.
