I think that over time, my tastes and Disney’s have seemed to diverge. That can cut both ways. It’s possible for Disney to release what they think is the new hotness and for me to be underwhelmed (hot take: I thought Thunderbolts* was mid), but also for them to release a project that doesn’t fit well into the big narrative arc that I happen to love (hot take: The Eternals was actual cinema and it’s a shame people didn’t appreciate it).
I think you’re right. If it was good, they would’ve released it. They’re probably going to try and hope that Ryan Coogler’s recent success (Sinners) can carry it, but it probably is a bloated mess. Still: if Dominique Thorne has talent and shows it, I’ll consider it a win. People dissed Wakanda Forever, but overall I liked it and thought she has promise. She was cocky as hell, and I liked that.
Huh! That’s very interesting. And good points.

Fingers crossed.
