I knew Summers8 would find a way of twisting this to attack the MCU again. Summers8 reminds me of a guy who went by the name of DerekPowers from IMDb prime back in the day. If you never encountered him on there before basically DerekPowers went after almost any major studio release and its fans and would often use very politically incorrect words to either describe or attack them. He would also pull crap out of his rear end in attempt to rile people up. Of the topics I remember him making was for the first Iron Man before it came out where he asked, "Is this movie made for retards or intelligent people? As in, is this movie made for smart and sophisticated film goers( people who like X-2, Spider-Man 2, Harry Potter, LOTR) or retards( people who like Transformers, The Day After Tomorrow, National Treasure, and Independence Day)? Anyone know, I don't want to support the dumb-pocalypse but I need something to watch" (Yeah, they literally wrote that). I guess he is Derek, its been ten years so he's had enough time to "evolve" a bit as a troll. There’s another guy who theorizes that summers8 is question7 from IMDb, who is suspected to be a poster who said that ‘Twilight’ series is better than MCU because it deals with a teenage girl getting pregnant.

Most of them are kid movies outside of WS and BP and of course Fox's marvel films and the Netflix so she needs to relax They aren't though. Kids can certainly watch them, but they are designed for all age groups to enjoy, not very dissimilar to Pixar and Studio Ghibli movies. Dancing and silly jokes you ate right totally not for the kids😂😂😂😂

I'm obviously over-selling it, Derek wasn't that good at basic English.

Question: Can we just get summers8 banned from this board? I think it's pretty obvious that the only thing he does in this board is to shit on MCU films and troll anyone who likes them. He doesn't even pretend to be unbiased and doesn't even put effort into his trolling (unlike DC Fan who at least can be quite amusing). I mean, I understand that some people will say negative stuff about movies in boards, that's normal. But I don't recall this guy ever contributing anything useful in this board other that to trashtalk MCU and just create a whole lot of unnecessary noise. Just look at this post. Claiming that superhero movies have always been loved and are only getting flak nowadays due to Marvel movies? Seriously? If you're gonna troll at least put some effort into it. It would definitely make this board an easier place to discuss. As thenewnexus and DC fan are just plain fun to laugh at but this guy is just pain in the ass. Unfortunately I don't think it's possible to ban someone from an individual board. Unless Scabab can change that. scabab could you possibly consider this request ? You must see that this guy posts nothing that contributes to this board and just needlessly trashes the MCU and claims his posts are facts.

As annoying as it may be to some, he can't be banned just for making threads that put Marvel under a negative light.
It would have to be something much more severe than that to be banned and at least from what I've seen he isn't insulting anybody nor is it like he makes thread after thread on the board.
Only one person got banned and that was for multiple reasons that included offensive PM's sent to another user.
I kinda wish more people would make some positive threads here. That was why I made the thread for the best action scenes.
I will however read through the link he posted and then rename the thread appropriately.

Reading the link and then reading the OP, the two don't connect at all.
Her comment was about those snobby elitists in the industry looking down on actors or actresses for starring in Marvel movies aka "mindless entertainment".
It really had nothing to do with them hating on the actual movies themselves or how they are any different from the superhero movies of old.
I was going to delete the bulk of your OP for that reason alone and replace it with her actual quote but I'll leave it for now as I caught it too late anyway but next time please make sure you more accurately reflect the information in the link rather than twist it in anyway.

Really weird that they have a name that is a sort of void and a number (almost sequential).

I remember driving him nuts when I pointed out how having good Soviets like Black Widow meant more back in the 1960s and 1970s than just Black characters like Storm. He went absolutely NUTS.

That should have been "too late" not "roommate".
Anyway, a lot of this is going off topic completely. I'd advise discussing Zoe Saldana's actual comment.
At this point what actor or actress hasn't been in a superhero movie? I wonder what elitist snobs she's referring to, most likely some directors who make these artsy movies that nobody watches.

There are most likely some that have been in comic book movies that had no costumes. So it looked like a regular drama to them. But she does mention that she's in Star Trek and Avatar, also. So it's not just the Marvel films that she's talking about. And you do have the high drama sci-fi that they don't count as regular sci-fi. They wouldn't put Gravity and Contact in the same category as a Star Wars. You also have it that she does more geek movies than dramas.

Looked down upon....yet they usually get great reviews. Of the eight Superhero movies to release since 2017, six of them have got over a 90% from critics and one of the two others still got a 83%. Compared to the many superhero movies that came out from 2000-2008, they get much higher praise now than they did before when you had duds like Daredevil, Hulk, Ghost Rider, Elektra, Catwoman, Fantastic Four, Superman Returns and Blade 3. Hulk and Superman Returns had positive reviews.

I guess some people forget that being an actor is still a job and just like any job, there's always a trade-off between going for glory or going for stability. Being cast in an MCU movie as a main character is almost a guaranteed paycheck for a number of years and can do wonders for an actor's career. There's nothing wrong with choosing this move over making independent arthouse films. Those "elitist" snobs are probably actors so rich they can afford to be extremely picky about roles or actors who can't land a big role and are just bitter.
