The slow and mediocre helpless work under the assembly line——On the loss of control of the third team

Five years ago or more, when Marvel's superhero movies gradually ignited his popularity, people were so eager to see the assembly of superheroes on the screen - the cooperation between Captain and Iron Man, or Bat and Superman confrontation. In just a few years, our wishes seem to have come true, but all this is not as good as it seems.
From the comic level, I can honestly admit that I am a DC fan (although I have not read a few comics), but I have no prejudice against the performance of the movie. I was full of expectations for BVS more than a month ago and was disappointed in the end. Gui didn't leave any positive comments, and this time the team's three scenes were more lively, but there were not necessarily fewer problems. Of course, if you look at the box office and word of mouth, you can say that I'm a piece of nonsense, but I'm actually powerless to refute...
Both BVS and CA3 have shown us how a two-and-a-half-hour movie can't tell a story. From the process Look, BVS chooses to pass all the material into the movie, so that the audience is either wanting to sleep or want to pee; and Marvel seems to be a little more shrewd. Don't write too complicated, I wish everyone knew at the critical moment that the two factions were incompatible, and they started fighting without saying a word, but this is not a good story.
The Marvel Universe has come a long way from the Iron Man operation in 2008 to today. More and more characters have been added. The audience is really looking forward to it, but I believe that the director is more and more helpless. These superheroes have completely different lives and fighting logics. A hodgepodge of characters is added. If nothing else, the biggest difficulty is from the background to the motivation. The chaos at the beginning of CA3 comes from this. In order to combine the two camps The team explained it well, many meaningless clips and plots cut the main story into pieces (in BVS, this shortcoming is even more serious), from Tony's foundation to the United Nations General Assembly, I am watching the first half of the clip It was really embarrassing when. Marvel's solution to this problem is very violent. From the beginning of the Women's Federation, its logic has been in a cycle of meeting-fight-meeting-fight, but the audience seems to buy it.
When it comes to the main storyline, when the background is so difficult to explain, it is even more disaster. Marvel has simplified the civil war to the extreme. Even if the core of the superhero registration act is removed, it seems to have no effect. The plot, the inspiration point of the contradiction has always been on WinterSoldier, from the national rule of law to personal grievances. And even in this case, the director couldn't prevent the lack of mainline logic, the villain Zemo's behavior was chaotic, the captain acted like an arrogant prophet throughout the film, Winter Soldier was confused from the beginning to the end, and the memory came back inexplicably. ...
Superhero movies seem to be heading for a dead end. Marvel's assembly line technology is getting more and more sophisticated, but the purpose seems to be just to drain the enthusiasm of the market. I wouldn't say Captain 3 is a failed movie, the director Russell is very good and has done enough within their control, but what about Infinity War after that, I can't imagine a movie with dozens of characters added. What it will be like, DC's positive alliance will also be a big test.
In short, I fervently hope that after the release of superhero movies in the future, there will be no fans waving comics to accuse you of ignorance of logic, and no fans will be forced to stand in line with CP regardless of the plot.
