rant, MCU movies not doin' it for me 

My lack of interest in MCU movies is this weird combination of things. Ironically growing up as a nerdy misfit means I bristle at "this is OBVIOUSLY something you LOVE and you're STOKED FOR IT" even when it's say, movies about Doctor Strange or TV shows about Star Wars. I feel like the OBVIOUSLY something you LOVE and you're STOKED FOR IT" for every single movie, every single year, burned me out faster than just more stories with familiar characters. The big one of course is still, I just like comics more as a medium. You pick up a comic book and for $1-5 you have cartoony looking superheroics (unless we're talking about say, Simone Bianchi art) you can read on the bus or during lunch, and flip back through and copy art to learn from it, that's way better imho than $8-$16 and planning 3 hours of your day, some of which is trailers you don't care about, with really GOOD cinematography which won't stick in your mind long enough for you to sketch it.
