Did anyone else think it was terrible? It felt very much like the Christmas Special which was mostly cringe. It seems like GotG 3 was pretty well received though.
GotG3 was the first Marvel I honestly just liked in a while. It has started to feel like the mojo has been lost - that spark of whimsy and fun. It feels stupid to say something like the Marvel franchise has become formulaic given that it’s always been so, but they’ve definitely been feeling like they’re just ringing the cash register recently. GotG3 was a pleasant surprise for me.
Shang Chi was relatively recent and I liked it. The fight between Shang Chi's parents looked unlike anything we've seen in the MCU. Most fights are fights. That fight felt like a conversation.
It felt very much in the vein and quality of the previous Guardians films to me, so I figured, if people loved those, they would also love this. Personally, I thought it was probably one of the better non-Spider-Man marvel offerings we have gotten in a while. The last phase had a lot of underwhelming releases.
I wouldn't say it was terrible, but a lot of it felt kinda meh compared to the other two.
Wasn't a fan at all. Watched in a group of 6 and I was in the minority. Felt lacking of the whimsy/fun the first and second had.
It was the best mcu release of recent other than spiderman. But it still didn't live up to the first two gotg. Disney doesn't know how to let characters have impactful conclusions and it's all just cheesy in the end.
Yes. I think the bar has gotten so pathetically low for marvel movies that this turd came in above expectations. Nothing more.
