[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago (2 children) How do you feel about Barbie being the top grossing film of the year and one of WB's top grossing films of all time? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Orbituary@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago Fine. It's a good movie. My joke is a reference to how poorly the stats are for their league despite being excellent athletes. permalink fedilink source parent [–] hydro033@kbin.social 12 points 2 years ago (1 child) Barbie was a good movie. The Marvels is not. It has nothing to go with gender. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world -7 points 2 years ago (1 child) Do you know for a fact that it's bad? Have you seen it? Or are you just making an assumption because it has low box office figures which you are extrapolating as meaning it's a bad movie? It's rated above a 6 on IMDB and above 60% on Rotten Tomatoes, so it sounds like a lot of people enjoyed it. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] PhreakyByNature@feddit.uk 3 points 2 years ago (1 child) I haven't seen it but heard some really enjoyed it some didn't.

Most Marvel movies are mixed in terms of reception, and some men, whether they claim it has nothing to do with gender or not, will not go see a superhero movie where women are the heroes. They don't even hate the idea, they just don't see "woman movies." There are an unfortunately large number of men who feel that way. But then, despite all of the people, all seemingly male, who told me that She-Hulk was terrible and it wasn't about gender, I thought it was terrific. So what do I know? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] PhreakyByNature@feddit.uk 0 points 2 years ago Hey you get my upvote. I had a blast with She-Hulk. A lot of Marvel is uneven but enjoyable. I like how, even after the show called out big CGI battles, Marvel still pumped out big CGI battles. Was wildly self-aware and yet..... here we are! permalink fedilink source parent
