Let me clarify: Any formula, if repeated enough, gets tiring eventually. Variety is always the best course. However, what I wanted to point out is that people will get tired with the "dark and gritty" formula faster than they get tired of the "fun enjoyable" formula. I think the reason why the MCU won't get stale is because of the variety in characters. The type of movies varies with the characters even though they can be light with humor. The problem with the X-men movies is either they aren't good or they are all the same movie*. The DC movies are trying to be "dark" like the Nolan movies, but they don't understand how to do it. They are actively trying to make themselves different from the Marvel movies (especially when Green Lantern didn't work) instead of just making DC movies. And with variety, the characters seem like they are on the same level. Superman feels like you can put him in the bat suit and have Cavill act like Superman and you'd still get Batman. With Logan, it wasn't because it was different or dark and gritty or whatever. Logan was genuinely a good movie. *You can really tell that X2 and DoFP was made by the same guy. And that anything that the 2 different groups of writers put in was superseded by the director. |
