🐈 "The Marvels" was a fun, popcorn adventure. Funny. Action. Heart. 

Not everything has to feel like end-the-universe while saving it. 

Ignore the review-bomber bros.

It’s definitely not “review-bomber bros.” …

I disagree with all of these points. It speaks to causality, the expectation and linkage to Disney+ and dilution of the brand. Many projects have succeeded during the strike, pointed out in the article. 

It is not about unfair media expectations. Look at the $200m budget + $100m or more in advertising v results

1. That article speaks to outcome, not causality. 
2. The SAG-AFTRA strike and lack of promotion has hurt a number of projects. 
3. Unfair media expectations that every Marvel installment has to do a billion dollars the first week. Also, misaligned incentives. "Doom" and drama articles get more clicks.
