Let me ask you a serious question: does your rule of "don't talk about what you didn't like" apply to Raimi's Spiderman movies? What about Fox's X Men movies, or Nolan's Batman movies? Do you give them praise without saying anything negative? i seem to recall you saying negative things about WW. So how is that any different? Honestly? No, and I'm actually really glad you asked. It's not all things Marvel are perfect. There have been plenty of Marvel films which deserve all the criticism they get. It's just that the MCU films aren't one of those.
Examples of films that I think have no business being complained about would be the first two X-Men films, the first couple of Spiderman films (outside of perhaps the whiney love angle bit), and the first two Nolan Batman films (The third of which there are a few things that stand out as legitimate concerns).
I haven't seen Wonder Woman, so I don't know how I could have said anything bad about it. I did say it featured the same grey tone as the DCU has so far, and as best I can tell that's pretty much true, but that doesn't necessarily mean it won't work in the film. The DCU in general however at this point has been extremely poorly crafted and related films to those don't exist in a pure vacuum and DC hasn't earned the benefit of the doubt so far. That could change, and maybe WW will start that. It definitely seems much more promising at this point.
But no, I'm not some pure Marvel zealot. When the MCU starts making bad films I'll be the first to say it.
