    Please use spoiler tags whenever commenting a spoiler in a non-spoiler thread. Most of the Lemmy clients don't support this but we want to get into the habit as clients will be supporting in the future.

You are absolutely correct, I love that movie. The chances of Disney being able to pull off anything even half as good however are basically nonexistent. That would require them to make something where the audience has to think, something risky, something potentially divisive.

Marvel is the epitome of visually impressive, but safe, inclusive movies for all audiences. Even the ones who are on their phones for half the movie.

Sometimes this is exactly what I'm looking for but it's not really comparable to V for Vendetta.

If Disney spend the big bucks on RDJ they're gonna want to show him off to draw in audiences.

I agree so much that a simple upvote would be insufficient! That's the sole purpose of this comment :)
