Endgame was a really entertaining movie. Callbacks to the older films were plentiful. It was surprisingly humorous with some emotional moments that could leave you teary eyed. It tied up some character arcs nicely. It also opens up the possible ties into the upcoming shows on Disney+.

On a side note, i watched Green Book this past weekend. Hadn't enjoyed a new (ish?) movie so much in a while.

Marvel only releases about 2 maybe 3 movies per year on average. Those over shits are from rival studios of dubious quality. Fuck no, I'm not tired of the MCU stuff. But yes, I do believe that other ocean of questionable quality content will cause superhero fatigue overall and the genre will begin to decline at some point. However, Endgame is the zenith of it all. 10 years of story arcs leading up to this. What a historic and wild ride.

And ugh... Greenbook. Widely panned by the family of Don Shirley as an outright lie in it's portrayal of him. No thanks on that one. Hard pass.

Man, im not really interested in learning about the true story, the movie itself was really entertaining imo though.
And good for all of you who are into these super hero movies. I have a bunch of friends who like that stuff too. Hell, i'll go if im invited, but it's not something im looking forward to. Last superhero movie i watched at the movies was deadpool 1. I think i enjoyed the beers more than the movie.
What do you guys think about the mouse owning that stuff now? I read that it might turn into a sjw fest now. Ive also read that this avengers movie might be the last marvel movie for a lot of people.

Jack Kirby and Stan Lee always wrote the stories for social justice and progressive change.

More often than not the X-Men mutant saga is likened to the civil rights movement.

Xavier is frequently compared to Martin Luther King Jr. as an advocate for understanding and peace while Magneto is compared to Malcolm X and calling for the mutants to fight back against those that oppress them.

The newest Spiderman character Miles Morales is half black, he's also gay in the comics, however, they didn't bring that up in the movie. I think it was also one of the last Fox Spiderman movies they'll be doing going forward.

That part definitely makes sense

Makes sense that someone concerned about a 'sjw fest' wouldn't care that the GreenBook was whitewashed AF & have zero interest in the real story.

Comics have ALWAYS been SJW. Maybe that's why you weren't into them? Disney has consistently done a good job handling the Marvel properties in their holdings. But it really is too bad that same can't be said for their Star Wars theatrical releases.
