Spider-Man is my favourite superheros and one of my favourite things of all time but I can’t stand Tom Hollands Spider-Man.I suppose, but we got plenty of that with the Holland Spidey movies too.

Garfield all the way!Spider-Man is my favourite superheros and one of my favourite things of all time but I can’t stand Tom Hollands Spider-Man.
I too long for the days of… *checks notes*… Thor: The Dark World…The MCU’s best days are behind it
A lot to unpack here, but I’ll say I disagree with, well, basically everything here.Do you know how you can start to figure out the current MCU "One Size Fits All" standard product model is pretty much broken? The answer to that is Iron Man 1 would have never been made by the current MCU today. No way would the current Marvel have a womanizing narcissist, a known arms dealer inside the military industrial complex, with PTSD as its hero. There's a sex scene. There's Stark on a pure revenge tour after his cave buddy gets killed. There's clear unbridled criticism at the way war is big business for the modern military. There are American soldiers being killed on screen. And Stark refuses to apologize for being exactly who is he is and what he is about.
Captain Marvel needed something outside the "formula" to succeed.

Is Moon Knight not a guy with a military background suffering from trauma and PTSD? Outside of Iron Man, there’s not really a surplus of womanizing billionaire heroes in Marvel comics either. Did Eternals not have a very overt sex scene? Did She-Hulk not have sex? Didn’t Peter literally almost kill Goblin out of anger and revenge? Did Wanda not butcher a ton of people trying to get her kids back? Haven’t they openly been calling out the corrupt government overreach in stuff like WandaVision and Ms. Marvel? Didn’t US soldiers get killed in FATWS? Isn’t US military honcho General Ross a current villain? Didn’t Tony literally turn his entire life around as penance for who he used to be?
And even if you didn’t like it, isn’t Captain Marvel one of the highest grossing superhero movies of all time?
