this could become its own thread. Lucas just wasnt great at executing a story.

Let's make it!

i think MoS falls into this.

So you're saying Man of Steel is on par with Star Wars? Holy shite.

Ill try to keep the Marvel/expectations brief. They set up a great universe and story lines. however, a lot of their movies have missed the mark. FWIW, i think X-Men: First Class is one of the best done comic films just give an example.

And the Nolan films? How good are they? Just for perspective. And yeah that's another thread, I'd love to know why most missed their mark. Marvel has been successful precisely because they've hit their mark almost every single time, outside of IH and IM2 probably. And even then, I think IH is looked over, it's good enough.

i would say they are pretty popular. if they didnt amount to anything, they wouldnt make them. end of the day its a business.

Well in the basic sense yes. But they aren't a movement or anything. And again, no one outside of comic book geeks and kids are really going to talk about them.

i think everyone and their mother saw Nolan's trilogy. id call that expanding their influence.

In an exterior sense of course, but Nolan's trilogy is no more it has 0 effect on the new franchise outside of loading the next version of Batman with Nolan-esque expectations (which isn't necessarily a good thing).

Marvel just has a shite load more movies so its easy to claim that

Marvel has a sigular universe, that's the difference.
