I just, can't get over how atrociously bad the writing in this film is lol.

and not even like, the gaping holes in logic necessary for the movie to even work. just like, the basic writing isn't good. Forced plot points all over, shoving in well tread origin story beats because it has to tie in with nostalgia beats, dull villains, and just zero weight to everything. The audience knows what's about to happen at every step, it's so boring.

this is like a glimpse of the future of Marvel films I feel, where the constant references to other films is the point of the film. where there's barely even a movie that stands on its own because it relies entirely on different movies to fill in the emotional plot beats.

movies that become nothing but referential fan service of films that themselves aren't anything but references to other things.
