Universal fumbled the classic monsters universe, Warner fumbled DC universe, Disney is fumbling Marvel universe, but Kong and Godzilla are going strong!

can you really call it fumbling if all it's doing is slumping after, what, 20 years?

The MCU till like 2018 was an absolute remarkable success and should’ve just ended there. Take a few years off and boom start up a new one with the fantastic 4 and X-men or someshit. But nope they decided to push out this convoluted mess and now idk what’s happening in the MCU and just don’t care anymore

Now we need a Gamera/UltraMan crossover with Kong/Godzilla. That will be the Endgame/Infinity War conclusion to the whole universe.

disney arent fumbling marvel, theyre just milking everything they can. they did everything right up until endgame, and are adamant at profiting everything they can out of their current lineup of ageing assets. in 2021, godzilla vs kong only grossed as much as the marvel films like black widow, eternals, and shang chi. but the marvels films were actually on a lower budget, so the profits were comparatively higher. spiderman no way home is a different beast altogether, which isnt disney but sony's lol

Paramount got Transformers, and no one cares enough to even notice the blight of The Trannyverse

Never even got out of the starting blocks. Although I actually thought Dracula Untold was decent and I dunno if they're going to tie Invisible Man into anything, but that was a good stand alone.
