    I might be the only person who didn’t hate Quantummania. I thought it was actually a return to form for the MCU; we forget this, but most MCU movies are actually just okay: not bad, but not terrible either.

    I think that multiverse stuff works better if you care about what’s in the universe. We care more about Earth if Iron Man is still alive and has a family waiting for him at home than if he’s already dead and gone. Marvel should have focused on building up likeable characters before diving into this multiverse stuff.

      I thought it was okay, which as you said is almost par for the course, but it felt like a generic Marvel movie whereas the first two had some fun heist elements to them. Gave them a unique feel within the MCU that I missed in this one.

      I liked quantummaina also.

      I am getting tired of Disney’s influence though. Not everything needs a feel good teaching “moment”… The whole thing with Drax and being stupid and Nebula learning his worth was SO overplayed.

        I thought it worked, but not completely. Maybe because it’d make more sense if Nebula kept ridiculing Drax because she likes him the mot but is afraid of long-term emotional attachments.
