Top 10 Most Annoying Cliches of the Superhero Movie Genre
Thought that forced twist endings were bad? Think againWhich DC is unfortunately copying wholesale from Marvel now
YES! Captain Marvel being a "woman" means we should all stop what we're doing, see the movie, and profess that it's the GREATEST thing ever to happen to society let alone cinema. Damn thing hasn't even been released yet and people are already putting it falling over themselves about how great it is.
Child Please...
Catwoman 2004, Wonder Woman 2017, Black Panther 2018, Captain Marvel, Ant-Man And The Wasp, Aquaman, Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse, Justice League 2017, et cetera
(out of all of those, Spider-Verse is literally the only one that I actually DO consider to be even remotely above average as a movie; in fact, it's an absolutely phenomenal movie and quite honestly beats the living tar out of Infinity War as far as I'm concerned, but STILL)
Just to name a few particularly infamous examples:
Howard in Howard The Duck
Steel himself in Steel
Ultron in Avengers: Age Of Ultron
Johnny Blaze in Ghost Rider
The Joker and Harley Quinn in Suicide Squad
Deadpool in X-Men Origins: Wolverine
Magneto in X-Men 3: The Last Stand
Batman and Robin themselves in Batman & Robin
Superman and General Zod in Man Of Steel
Literally everyone in the main cast of The Fantastic Four
Two-Face and the Riddler in Batman Forever
Venom in Venom 2018
The Hulk in Hulk 2003
Catwoman in Catwoman 2004
Mr. Freeze and Bane in Batman & Robin
Spider-Man and Venom in Spider-Man 3
Elektra in Elektra
Blade in Blade Trinity
Cyborg and Flash in Justice League 2017
Just to name some particularly infamous examples:
Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor in Dawn Of Justice
Jared Leto as the Joker in Suicide Squad
Uma Thurman as Poison Ivy in Batman & Robin
Halle Berry as Catwoman in Catwoman 2004
Nicolas Cage (almost) as Superman in Superman Returns
Will Smith as Deadshot in Suicide Squad
George Clooney as Batman in Batman & Robin
Shaquille O Neal as Steel in Steel
Tommy Lee Jones as Harvey Dent in Batman Forever
Nicolas Cage as Johnny Blaze in Ghost Rider
Arnold Schwarzenegger as Mr. Freeze in Batman & Robin
Jim Carrey as the Riddler in Batman Forever
Infinity War at least manages to decently hold itself together despite this
This is what happens when one company figures out the perfect Superhero movie formula and the other is stuck trying to figure it out.
DC is going to be underrated because their movies are going to be changed from movie to movie to figure out what works, once they figure out what works they'll become overrated as well
That is because Marvel is better than DC. Most DC movies are slow with less action. Aquaman was good though. I heard Wonder Woman and Shazam! were also good DC movies (I want to watch them soon). Marvel has more action and is more fast-paced.
Because Marvel figured out that perfect superhero movie formula while DC still has not. Marvel makes their movies really good and DC is slow-paced.
LISTING STAND-OUT EXAMPLES FROM SUICIDE SQUAD ITSELF:
Deadshot is a black guy that shoots people for money and talks in stereotypical gangster slang; also, him getting brutally beaten by quite probably THE richest white guy in the entire DC universe is an act that is nothing short of HEAVILY glorified by the film as well
El Diablo is a completely prototypical Latino wigger "gangsta"
The woman who leads the Squad is an Angry/Scary Black Woman
Katana is a Japanese woman who is obsessed with swords
Captain Boomerang is an alcoholic Australian who is obsessed with...well, boomerangs (honestly, it's in the name, what did you expect)
Killer Croc is a literally animalistic black man
Harley Quinn is the stereotypical "all beauty, no brains" American blonde
Nice observation but this is a problem with movies in general
They should make a superhero movie set in Las Vegas
