I'm okay with superhero movies, they just gotta do two things:

  1. Stop making shitty movies.

  2. Put a little nuance into the story.

It'd be pretty cool to see a Doctor Doom movie that focuses on threats against Latveria and acts more as a political intrigue. Victor is loved by his people, imagine seeing him in a good light.

How about a Harley Quinn movie centered around her sociopathic tendencies, delusion, and abuse by the Joker? Throw in some cool fighty bits, but from her perspective, with some of the old intrigue between her and Nightwing or Batman.

The problem is they keep going back to the same tricks. Then when they try to do something different it's just garbage. Poor cgi, poor writing, bad taste.

Run with one of the old man Batman timelines. Kill Superman. Show Spiderman as less a quirky kid or awkward young man and give us more of his brilliant scientific knowledge. Some of my favorite moments were Tony working on something, the montages in his garage and him figuring out something new.

It's there. Just gotta stop being dumbasses about it.
