Marvel Films

MCU is a great example of a higher order development emerging from component, lower-order developments. Conceptually parallels the prevailing tendency for systems to conglomerate into higher order systems. And as far as I can tell, MCU is the first time that mainstream media really does this.

half an hour into guardians of the galaxy - the racoon character gets all the wise cracks in this one.

The MCU represents a complexity and scale never seen before in any artwork of any time or civilisational matrix.

president's men - boring - old - irrelevant
iron man - relentless - glamorous - lots of wisecracks- big explosion

the only good marvel is thor: ragnarok. just like batman & robin is the only good batman. both movies don't take their respective universes serious and turn it into something shiny, something camp, something funny, something actually entertaining.

stop hiding from modernity catalog embrace the future, and evolve!

 

[woops]

the message of president's men - corruption is endemic and the world is a terrible placce
message of iron man - corruption can be redeemed and the better side of human nature will save us all with a big explosion

Leave it out grandad! Since when did the ancient Greeks have sick special effects?

soundtrack of president's men - turgid strings 200 years out of date which are a tool of western hegemony just like all the characters and basically think slavery is a good idea

soundtrack of iron man - pop songs that make you feel optimistic and energetic and confident that soon all weapons manufacturers worldwide will devote themselves to peace in the middle east and monogamy

haven't seen all the president's men btw but 100% confident i am correct

my life is literally empty except for the faint glimmers of hope apparent in marvel films and mvuent's new album

you are both infantilising yourselves you need to watch some tarkovsky

We did all that by the time we were 16 mate, hoovered up all of western culture.

 

[luka]

Now we are like Bowie in the Man Who Fell To Earth watching 16 televisions at once surfing the currents of the zeitgeist making patterns out of information extrapolating the future from cereal advertisements and dance crazes
