MODERATORS
They get more slack. But you can practically see the moment the Disney executive walks into the room, in Dr Strange 2, and starts making decisions over Raimi's head.
Waititi figured out how to go with the flow and still churn good stuff in Love and Thunder. But so much of what he did was a deliberate subversion of Disney tropes, it's like he hoodwinked the producers.
On the flip side, his series "Reservation Dogs" feels like something Disney would have put out thirty years ago, but has completely forgotten how to do anymore.
And because I'm in the mood to fight, I'm going to say Guardians (particularly 3) is highly overrated.
Big ups for Reservation Dogs, agreed. I actually also agree about the Guardians movies being overrated, but they're still fun little romps. Gunn's most subversive days are long past.
