Disney, probably. They gave us some good things, I guess. Kinda sucks it’s their IP forever now.
I’m leaning towards being competely over marvel and super hero shit in general. Sad that some might think it’s because I’m old and no fun but really I don’t think the story telling is up to my standards anymore.
At this point I want depth and execution. Really, my standards may be too high but it’s my time, I guess.
I just need a story that has something important under the surface. Something to keep me guessing. Then in a master stroke execute every scene with intention, artistry, and style.
I’m dreaming of a Berserk done right. Not that shit they somehow did two seasons of. The Golden Age stuff is really good. I just want post golden age now.

I also tend toward darker themes.
Most people want that but corporations would rather have money from rubes than bother to make anything with good storytelling.
The mainstreaming and Disney-fication of “gritty” movies has been absolutely dogshit for the content.
You can’t make Blade or The Crow anymore. You can barely make The Matrix. You just get a bunch of GrimDark cartoony bullshit.

Have you seen Godzilla Minus One? That movie was so good.
Agreeded
And that’s why I’ve started to prefer seinan manga to most other things, too
