During #2023 I read “superhero fatigue” ad nauseam as a cause for #MCU films performing increasingly bad with audiences
So I rewatched them, Iron Man to Thor Love and Thunder
My personal takeaway was that most of the early ones are still highly enjoyable
My problem with every film after Eternals is that they are impersonal statements with badly composed stories where I saw nothing to get invested in. That’s not fatigue, but executive decisions
T:L&T is also badly directed and weirdly edited
