It's not an original "concept." It's based off a comic book. So are Deadpool, New Mutants and Logan. The criticism here is not that characters are not original creations, but that MCU are formulated cookie cutter, conveyer belt products: eg always having the same arcs (Jerk goes through crisis becomes good guy superhero a la Iron Man, Dr Strange, Thor Antman etc) or band of jerk has to find together to fight common enemy a la Avenger or GotG. Add all the other MCU formula elements like childish jokes, faux-deaths etc and these movies essentially feel the same. Show me the Logan out of the box movies, with real R-rated stakes and dark elements and original storytelling. Where are they in the MCU? I never saw one. You can love your junk food but do not insult other's intelligence by claiming it is haute cuisine. |
