quote:Marvel fumbled around with Hulk twice before getting it right in Avengers. Marvel (extended, not the actual current MCU) wasted and threw away the Fantastic Four. They let Spiderman get stuck in a repeating time-loop. Their popular X-Men franchise is zigzagging back and forth in time, from the 90's to the 60's to the future to the 70's to the 80's. They let a potentially cool figure in Ghost Rider become a joke... just imagine if they were to introduce him with the proper mood and actor, into the MCU (that's for fans of Ghost Rider comic, not the Nicolas Cage movies).
The difference is that Marvel set up their universe correctly and they do way more correct than they do incorrect.
But that's not the MCU, you say:
Ok, Green Lantern isn't DCU. Nolan's Dark Knight with the ridiculous TDKR isn't in it.
quote:
Zodd was a better villain than many of the Marvel villains. He was certainly more cruel and badass than Ultron turned out to be.
quote:
DC nailed Batman with Affleck and hopefully they give Affleck as much control as possible on his stand alone films.
quote:2 films, we get a great villain, the near-perfect Batman, and excitement for the next movie.
a bunch of us are excited about Suicide Squad
That's not awful.

Marvel was able to take their time and build their universe with relatively low expectations, IMO. Go back and look at those phase 1 films, the majority are just ok, or downright bad. Dc's problem is people expect more now, so their films are under a lot more scrutiny. Had MOS came out back in 08, maybe it doesn't get so much backlash. Just my 0.2

Marvel has made mistakes and gets bashed. DC has made some good movies and been praised. This board has some very bias posters but as a whole seem to call comic book movies at face value.
Ironically I see more love for DC comics on here than Marvel, which is why I think some DC movies are more harshly judged. Those of us that are big X-Men fans tend to hate the Fox movies.
As much success Marvel has had, Batman and Superman are still the two most beloved characters in comics. So any movie featuring one (and moreso both) with be viewed with a bigger magnifying glass.
