At some point they have to notice. They own marvel. They could easily adapt some great storylines from Marvel history but I’m sure they’ll stick with all new and all different. Gotta have America Chavez

They could easily adapt some great storylines from Marvel history

Big problem there is a lot of the larger plot devices used in those stories are either:

A: Dead in the MCU, like Cap, Iron Man, Black Panther, Loki, and whoever else.

B: Completely different in the MCU, like the Skrulls, Inhumans [Ms Marvel is meant to be one except might turn out to be a mutant of all things instead], Mutants [don't call them X-Men tho' 🙄], Atlanteans, and various others.

So a lot of the most popular Marvel stories simply don't have the core cast any more or the background because the groups that should be involved aren't anything like what the comics use. There can be no Secret Invasion like in the comics because the Skrulls in Captain Marvel are nothing like what has been one of the longest running themes in the comics. The Kree are similarly screwed up because of the same movie. The Inhumans flopped so badly even the comics that were more or less pushing for the Inhumans over the Mutants ended up flipping back the other way and not outright cancelling the mutant stories simply because another company held the movie rights.

Of course it's not stopping Marvel given the future line up of movies coming, like Secret War, but it simply doesn't have the foundation or playing pieces to work anywhere near as well as the original comics did and even then that's a push since the original Secret War comic was really just a gimmick to sell toys and fuck over various characters that Shooter didn't like, namely any of the X-Men/mutants.

And also they actually said they don’t care about the source material and it’s a red flag when the applicants say they are a fan of the comics.

"Hey, you know all those things which made us popular? Let's not use those!"

half a dozen shitty twitter tier fanfics later

"Why the flip are we bankrupt?!"

Ha!!! I’m almost convinced they literally said that.

I guess I should’ve said they could have. Their priority isn’t to make good stories. They place representation/lgbt over storytelling. I think a properly done Maximum Carnage, Executioner Song, Korvac saga, and so many more.

Wokeness is a unique form of cancer in that its host believes its the immune system.

It was only a matter of time before Marvel movies followed Marvel comics into the abyss.

True. I foolishly thought it was a good move at the time. Same with Star Wars.

In the past parents could buy any Disney product, and feel confident that it would be of high quality, and not have anything inappropriate.

Nowadays, you don't know how many dicks are gonna be in your bowl of Disney cereal. So, parents just don't trust them anymore, and that's the beginning of the end.

They ruined their brand to be "woke." Disney is not going to survive if they continue what they're doing.

Good riddance. These companies need to start feeling the consequences of their own actions.

Shares Drop 44%

Shareholder revolt, when? Their CEO changed from woke to rabidly woke. It's not going to get better.

You'd be surprised how good companies like this are at lying to shareholders and how dumb shareholders are. A friend of mine used to work in shareholder relations for a company and you basically just make up bullshit and lie nonstop... And shareholders believe you.

Wouldn’t be surprised if their top level management and governance structures were as infested with feds as the social media sites are.

Dems pull the strings. Infinite money, like he said.

Every part of western culture that has WEF'd - including groomer Disney - needs to extinct itself. They won't be missed, as they now add less than nothing, to society.

I hope they utterly fail.
