So anyone on here will not be shocked to hear that there’s a divide between the Marvel and DC movie fans. Well, some of them at least…
Many of the fans just enjoy a playful bit of to-ing and fro-ing, however many take it to extreme levels and can sometimes get vicious and outright ugly.
We at FTN all have different opinions – personally I prefer the DC movies – but we never let it get in the way of our friendships and it’s always just fun. Which is how it should be.
And if you don’t believe us, why not listen to what Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige has to say about the DC movies, particularly Justice League: “I think movies are awesome and people should go out and support awesome movies, and I go support those movies and I thought Wonder Woman was awesome. I can’t wait to see what Geoff Johns and Joss [Whedon] and the gang has done with Justice League,” said Feige.
“People like rivalries, I guess? I don’t know. But I’m seeing Geoff Johns in a couple of weeks for dinner. We went to this Dick Donner event together. Dick’s Superman is still the best archetype of superhero films. So yeah, just go see cool movies. What are you fighting about?”
See?
It’s awesome that Feige can sing the praises of Wonder Woman and Richard Donner’s Superman, even going so far as to call Superman ‘the best archetype of superhero films’.
So why can’t we all just get along?
Justice League opens this week and good, bad or indifferent, let’s show our support and not just use it as an opportunity to attack either franchise and fandom?
That’s very well said and it really does feel like it’s time some immature comic book fans move on from battling over Marvel and DC movies. At the end of the day, they’re two completely separate companies and neither really seems to care what the other does, so why do you? Well, feel free to let us know your thoughts on that and Feige’s remarks about Justice League in the comments section down below.
