Maybe it's just me but the older I get, the less attached I get to the pop culture of my youth.
It's not just you; I'm exactly this, completely 'meh' on superhero movies and a lot of the things that dominated my youth? then
Venom came out and I was 10 years old again for 2 hours. Felt good.
I mean, yeah. Pretty sure I've seen every MCU film. Some several times. And I still probably couldn't tell you any of what happened in them. They're all just...I don't know, whatever.
They exist and they entertain and that's about all that can be said. So
I don't really get why people are so annoyed or like, personally offended when something like Man of Steel isn't the Best Film Evar!!! If I wanted something deep and well thought out, I'd go watch some Tarkovsky or whatever, ya feel me?
That said, I too enjoyed
Venom. I don't get all the hate. It was funny and a bit dark and Tom Hardy is a decent actor. What more do people want?
Thor 3 was pretty good too, largely because of the humour and Jeff Goldblum since he's such a delightful man. But the rest are just noise IMHO. Entertaining, beautiful noise but noise nonetheless.
