It was asked before but it needs to be asked again. When will critics finally say they've had enough? When does the bubble burst? I mean...if a freaking Thor movie can't kill the streak...what will? At this point, a single flop won't do it, you'll need a series of them across all media in rapid succession. Pray with me, brother. Hee hee hee...

Pretty much nothing at this point. Some thought it was going to Guardians of the Galaxy, some thought it was going to be Ant-Man, some thought it was going to be Doctor Strange. Really, after Scott Derrickson of all people delivered, and looking at their upcoming movies and directors, It's safe to say that they won't release a dud for awhile.
Oh, and Ant-Man almost burst the bubble. I remember that it started with a 63% when reviews first came. Now it's at 82%.

As long as it keeps on bubbling and there are enough bubble heads it will not burst.

Probably going to get a lot of hate for saying this but a part of me actually hopes that the entire super hero craze bubble burst. Marvel, DC and fox. Both the movies and TV shows. If anything just to give us a period of peace. At least 30 years and then reboot it all.

Hee hee hee... if Cpt Marvel gets good reviews will formersomething say it's because of artificial boosters? Because you know, it has a female protagonist just like Wonder Woman

The critics should have got sick of the MCU by Age of Ultron. But until other non-comic blockbuster movies start delivering consistent good competition, then critics will continue over-celebrating the MCU as the pinnacle of cinema because its the only genre thats keeping the cinema industry afloat and they will overlook its mediocrity whilst doing it.

Its not just critically but box office returns as well for competition. Logan and WW are in the comic genre. Dunkirk and Bladerunner are solo un-franchised films and the latter flopped financially. Planet of Apes flopped commercially too. Basically theres no other non-comic franchise (except Star Wars which is Disney anyway) that is doing what Marvel are - high critic scores and box office success on a consistent basis. They have a monopoly over it which makes them look better then they actually are.

"98%" of people looking back in twenty years will think it's hilarious and trashy and pathetic that we put any of these popcorn movies on this much of a pedestal, culturally or otherwise. And I mean all of it, not just the dreaded MCU. It's GOOFY. When I was growing up nobody took any of this crap seriously. We took shit like Saving Private Ryan seriously.

They never fully recovered after Cars 2. It was an end of an era after that movie came out.

I don't think anyone sees the MCU as the pinnacle of cinema....they're just really enjoyable movies.
