When did the hate for the capeshit start?

For me it was infinity war. I couldn't take anymore cgi

agooga gagoogo tatata mababa

this. i can barely tolerate it from normies but it pisses me off to see this board engage in that fuckery

same reason I hate Game of Thrones. Whenever a new episode dropped you'd see 80 different threads all talking about the same fucking thing

I'd say around Avengers 2 or Guardians 1 when quip dialog started to infect every other movie

aboo based

Don't forget how the mods make a sticky warning people not to discuss spoilers for Marvel capeshit garbage, but not for anything else

When faggots started making multiple threads of the same shit. Even GoT, got spammed here.
Lots of anons probably wouldn't even mind capeshit, star wars, transformers or even GoT even if they were pretty shit in quality as long as they were contained in a single thread.

I hated Iron Man. I think was the start of hating capeshit for me. I was young enough to love Raimis Spiderman 1+2 and Batman Begins. X-men was only ever OK. I thought the following Nolan Batmans were overrated but still had enough entertainment and redeeming factors to be watchable, same goes for the 3rd Raimi Spiderman. When Iron Man came out id probably gotten too old for capeshit, id have been about 15 and was more interesting in girls and drinking and smoking weed than watching some gay superhero. Never cared for any since and havn't seen the majority of Marvel that has been posted here for the last decade.

I actually still love the Raimi Spider-Man movies, I like the X-Men films all the way up to maybe First Class and I have a soft spot for the first Iron Man. The last capeshit movie I watched that I didn't completely hate was Captain America, though the MCU formula was definitely kicking in by that point. Avengers was the last capeshit I watched, I didn't particularly care for it, and I haven't watched a single superhero movie since (aside from rewatching Iron Man a few months ago, it still holds up).

And to answer your question; I think it's just because they've become incredibly stale and oversaturated. The idea of superhero movies is something I inherently find somewhat childish, I literally watched these movies as a kid and liked them as a kid, though I still like them today because they actually feel like they're attempting something different, those earlier capeshit movies are more like the spiritual successors to 80's and 90's action flicks. It was never something I wanted to see OVERTAKE the market, though; rather just exist within it. Superman came out in 1978 but it happily existed within its own little string of films. Then the first Avengers movie came around and you could just tell that these films were now their own phenomenon, and it's just a phenomenon I'm not in on the hype for. I actually now think the idea of shared universes is partly what killed the hype for me, I much preferred these films when they existed in their own separate worlds, it gave an aura of specialness to each world and the lack of interconnection made them a little more digestible. I don't need every Stallone movie to be in the same fucking universe either, as amusing as an idea that may be.

And people might say "well that's the comics, they're interconnected" but I grew to dislike that shit in the comics, as well. In any sense of stretched realism a world full of gods inherently undermines itself, yet somehow the worlds always mostly resemble ours. I'm supposed to care about how Captain America is a man out of time, yet he was only in the fucking ice cube for 19 years. Most of the people he would've known during the war would still be alive, he could even get back together with old flames, they'd just be a bit milfier. He's been awake for just as long as all these 60's heroes, he just missed the heydey of Elvis and the Korean War, is all.

I think Thor 2 was when the reaction started. Wasn't there some article by a writer or novelist or something, basically saying "I thought there were only so many times someone would go and see Thor 17, turns out I was wrong" or something like that.

I don't understand why, but the thor films really feel impossibly generic, I couldn't watch past the first one

mate the genre has been complete iredeemable garbage for the entirety of the 2010s and hasn't recovered until Joker

Not sure exactly, but near the start of the MCU. Each movie got progressively worse and more insulting to a viewers intelligence. I was absolutely done by Guardians of The Galaxy and haven't seen a capeshit flick since.

oo-blah-blah

Also black and Asian Norse gods? I turned it off when I saw Idris Elba playing. fucking Heimdall, jesus christ

you were exactly the target age, probably just think you're too cool for capeshit.
whatever, you're not missing much anyway.

dont you understand? The MCU sucks. Its fucking dumb, and I always feel my time has been stolen from me. No matter how flawed Raimi or Nolan's superhero films are, they are way more watchable. TDKR drags on a bit however.

The director for the first one isn't suited for it. Poor guy probably only followed what marvel told him to.
Not to mention the actors simply sucked outside of maybe hiddleston and hemsworth. (prolly too embarassed to act for those crap movies)

>thing I liked as a kid is no longer appealing to me as an adult
whoa man you really touched on something there

From my personal experience I'd say somewhere between Dark Knight and TDKR. Dark Knight made people think capeshit can be serious films so studios started pumping out increasingly forgettable capeshit flicks and by the time TDKR came out capeshit had overstayed its welcome.
