I didn't like the prequels.. But the first 3 were game changers in so many ways in cinema. There are plenty of bad super-hero movies. Fantastic 4, Punisher, Green Lantern....
But Marvel for the most part are making the best movies, not just 'super hero' movies, but some of the best written best looking movies these days.
The numbers don't lie. Your inability to enjoy a good movie aside.
What numbers? Sales? Is your position that the best movies are related to earnings?
Star Wars originals were a game changer in cinema. I'll give you that, regardless of whether they were good movies or not. Avatar was brilliant visually but it was basically Dances with Wolves in CGI. Gravity....she rode a fvcking fire extinguisher through space.
I get by your board name you are comic book and comic book movie fan. It's cool if that's what you are into. I personally don't care for them because I already said it just wasn't something I was into growing up. The best movie I have seen lately was Interstellar. To be honest though, I have been getting away from feature films and very much into the series on Netflix, HBO, and Showtime. The quality of acting, the actors participating, writing, and plot lines are just far better. Again, JMO, you don't have to agree.
