Since the dawn of comics, comic book fans have written to share their grievances about the superhero media they consume. One of my favorites was a 1994 letter written to Marvel asking for an incredibly specific drawing of Thor in upcoming editions.  «I am a black female, late 20s. I want to see Thor N*DE! …

If you’re looking for a great superhero movie to watch during this Thanksgiving week, you can’t go wrong with Spider-Man (2002). It’s the only superhero movie I can think of in which a hero’s powers are revealed to their villain by accidentally dripping bodily fluids on their bedroom floor on Thanksgiving. In fact, it’s the …

Everybody is well aware that 2019 was the golden age of Marvel on the silver screen, but we’ve yet to reach the point in the nostalgia cycle where we’re accurately labeling 2021 as the golden age of Marvel on Disney+. I know many people think Disney+ shows are the downfall of the MCU, and I …

Tom Holland and Zendaya are not only presumably going to be starring together in the upcoming Spider-Man 4  movie (it hasn’t been confirmed whether Zendaya will return), but also Christopher Nolan has also cast them in his next big project. Of all the Peter Parkers and MJs that have dated in real life, I believe …

In the debate of Marvel vs. DC comics, I feel like most of the world has agreed that Marvel is the superior IP. Even the most DC-pilled person can admit that they have a much larger variety of heroes than DC has. The foundational units of DC are Batman and Superman, but mostly Batman. Personally, …

It’s sad to see Marvel fans rooting against the brand they love. I remember when Agatha All Along was first coming out, and all these Marvel fanboys predicted it would flop beyond belief. They were saying that it was going to be just as much of a stinker as She-Hulk and that Marvel was alienating their target …

I’m a return guy for the look of old-school superheros. You can call me a corny old lady as much as you want, but I’d take the skinny stylings of Adam West over a roided-out Robert Pattinson any day of the week. I get that in our current superhero landscape, actors have to lie and …

I’d love to be in the room with Marvel’s suits when they found out how much Joker: Folie a Deux flopped. After years of being told that Marvel is on its way out and will never recapture the success of 2019, DC discovered that they couldn’t put $200 million eggs in a basket from 2019. …

Ah, Marvel movies. They’ve become an object of scorn by both film snobs and superhero fans alike. If Marvel makes billions of dollars as they did in 2019, snobs complain that they’re becoming too much of a cultural monopoly, making little room for anything else. If Marvel movies flop commercially, then they’re a harbinger of …

One of the biggest Cinema Sins-esque critiques of Marvel movies is how much infrastructure destruction is involved in «saving the town.» Sure, it’s technically sound that the bad guys aren’t winning, but the number of cars and buildings destroyed in fictional depictions of Manhattan cannot be overstated. There has been a lot of hyperbolic complaining …
