how many spiderman movies can they make….how many times can uncle ben die…..when will they free peter parker from his own personal hellish groundhog day….

They’re not a story company. They’re a toy company. They’re a global marketing company. Creativity is not the business; consistency is. They’re the McDonalds of storytelling. Anything you want as long as it’s some combination of burgers, fries, and a coke, and its all cooked by computer. You want bigger menu – come to fandom. Dietary restrictions? Check the tags. You want a personal chef: come to Yuletide.
One thing I love about Marvel fandom is that increasingly we are also ignoring the fast food when it displeases us. We just don’t even acknowledge certain deaths or events from the last few movies, like they’re the Satisfries of canon. Meanwhile Button Bob, the Shamrock Shake of the MCU, exists onscreen for three minutes but lives forever in our hearts.
