WW feels like a separate kind of superhero movie. It still has some similarities to other DCEU movies but for the most part it feels different. It does have quite a number of similarities from MCU films but is that enough to say it's closer to being an MCU film than a DCEU film? Here are some of the similarities I noticed, let me know what you think in the poll.
Similarities with DCEU:
1. Gravity of the situation - one thing I have to say about DCEU films, they do like to make you feel just how world changing the consequences would be should the the heroes not prevail.
2. Fighting style - DCEU fight scenes are very stylish, with lots of slow motion and money shots and beautiful choreography... which is quite a contrast with MCU's grittier, more frenetic style of fight choreography.
3. Overbearing music - DCEU films have a habit of using loud music, which may or may not be a good thing for audiences
4. Impeccable visuals - DCEU movies have always looked extremely polished visually, making for very epic-looking movies
5. Someone dies - Jonathan Kent, Superman, El Diablo...
Similarities with the MCU:
1. Has humor - quite a lot of it. Reminiscent of Thor and CATFA
2. Has a hero who just wants to do good - whereas DCEU movies have the hero forced to become a hero, MCU movies have the heroes wanting to be heroes on their own. Same with WW.
3. Has multiple scenes during daytime - though London is pretty grey, majority of scenes in the movie takes place during the day
4. Has weakly developed villains - due to time being spent mostly to develop the hero. Pretty much a trademark of MCU movies.
5. Hero is allowed to enjoy everyday activities - whether it's enjoying a meal, or drinking with friends, or some partying or just hanging out with loved ones... WW shares this with MCU movies. I recall very very few of these moments in other DCEU movies.
There are more, but I thought I'd leave the rest of it to you guys to figure out.
