Like i don’t like comedy as as genre but when it mixes with action or thrillers it’s a complete shitshow. Characters make weird decisions , responds to the situation in stupid ways , characters cracking joke while someones losing their head , makes plot holes as in that’s so stupid no one would do that it’s only there to advance plot , makes remarks not suited to the situation all so they can sneak in some one liners or cringe jokes. There are aldready comedy movies let them enjoy that and let others enjoy other genres . Mixing comedy with other genres ruins an othervise good movie.
That was the main critic about Marvel tone.
Let epic be epic, no need for jokes everywhere
I feel this post only applies to the MCU.
No marvel is a great example but have you seen horror comedy the characters become more brain dead than a braindead person.
Have you watched Cabin in the Woods yet?
Because that movie is intentionally comedy-horror, but also because it’s a satire of the horror genre and Hollywood’s cinema industry as a whole.
Yeah and i have immensly enjoyed it but i have to disagree . It isn’t comedy like i discribed the characters don’t crack joke while someones losing their head satire sure.
Yes, they do. Multiple times. It’s the whole premise of the movie that the characters are intentionally being drugged to behave stupidly in the most dire of situations. They crack jokes while characters are choosing the relics that determine who is going to kill them, they also crack jokes during the ending monster fight scene while people are being murdered left and right.
As you said the characters are no jokimg it’s the drug doing that and in the end i can understand coz you know context.
It’s only revealed in the last 20 minutes of the film. Were you upset before that?
No it wasnt
It was hinted through the whole damn movie
Check out Behind the Mask: the Rise of Leslie Vernon. It’s a satirical horror comedy that takes the common horror tropes, deconstructs them and turns them inside out, upside down in a hysterical way.
I mean, horror comedy is the junk food of movies.
It’s almost supposed to be bad, and that’s what people like.
Is Marvel even epic?
I thought it was always kinda corny, just chuck some jokes in, then have the occasional fight scene. That’s what it is.
If they tried to be too serious I think it would fail spectacularly.
Yeah
