Mcdonald's is cheap. There is nothing cheap about the mcu. People legitimately like it, and you'll have to accept that.
Justice League official "Zack Snyder" cut on HBO Max
- Thread starter Ar-Pharazon
- Start date
A movie after dinner, is just an excuse not to do the dishes immediately.
A long movie after dinner is just an excuse to do the dishes tomorrow morning.
What this new cut means is dirty dishes for at least 3 days.

Snyder explains the difference between Superman wearing the blue suit and the black suit in the cut
Older crap like Indiana Jones, Burton Batman, Star Wars, Star Trek, Dr Who, LOTR...
I think at this point the MCU has proven this isn't true. It's been going for over a decade, and it's still going strong with no signs of any of the things you've said.
Yes, there are good serious superhero stories, but even they don't take themselves as seriously as this seems to be.
I'll take the "cartoony crap" over the art style in this a million times over. The designs for Darkseid and Steppenwolf look like the people who designed them were trying to out "EXTREME!" '90s comics.
Incorrect and misapplied as usual.
You not doing your homework, as usual.
James Bond has run for more than a half century, but that does not mean it had periods where it suffered from silly, nonsensical crap. Lifespan does not naturally walk hand-in-hand with quality, and that is clearly an issue with the MCU.
Apparently, you are not familiar with comics of the 1990s, since the characters look nothing like that horrific, talent-challenged period of comics.
McDonald's is a billion-dollar company, not a hole-in-the-wall. Regarding the MCU. some like it, others do not. The fact that some enjoy it--like McDonalds--does not mean it is good or great.

Homogeneity and formulation might be popular and generate profit, but some of us want to actually be invested in the entertainment we consume.
And it's a proven fact and reality that 90% of the MCU has been homogenous and formulaic.

The only "homogeneous" thing about the MCU is that it's consistently Good.
Formula? Every movie has a formula.
Not to mention that Snyder's work is pretty damn homogeneous, in visual style, tone, writing style, etc. There is much more difference between, say, GotG and Captain America then there is between any two Snyder films.
"How about no".
The last time that the MCU consistently delivered movies that weren't the same cookie-cutter action fest where nothing actually matters was when they released Avengers Age of Ultron.
Except maybe dawn of the dead, which was more of a normal horror movie.
The reason Dawn of the Dead was good was because it had James Gunn as a screenwriter. Nothing Zack Snyder has done since has had that tone.

Studios have been doing these for a decade, at the least.
It was shot in super 35mm full frame, which is 4:3, for IMAX 70mm, 1.43:1, and cropped to 1.85:1 for traditional theaters.

"Nothing actually matters"
Like what, exactly? You expect them to ruin their universe and kill everyone in every film?
James Bond, nothing actually matters there.
Mission Impossible, nothing actually matters there.
Indiana Jones, nothing actually matters there.
By your logic.
True.
People can enjoy entertainment that is pure formulaic and homogenous spectacle, but enjoyment does not equal quality.
Speaking purely from a standpoint of objective quality and averaging the franchise as a whole, the MCU is middling at best, regardless of how popular it is and how much money it has made.
