I would read into the concept of lemmy a bit, as many ideologies from all over the world gather there, which may sometimes cause clashing.

It will always shift the prime directive of the IP and how things are handled. Star Wars stayed relevant forever without Disney.

Caelum Link ParentWhen I first joined I assumed Iād be okay with all the mix of the ideologies, but I will admit I was wrong. It leads to a lot of random debates. It does turn very negative and political.When I first joined I assumed Iād be okay with all the mix of the ideologies, but I will admit I was wrong. It leads to a lot of random debates.

The only thing that I really would miss from the longer series is Major General Olivier Mira Armstrong.

They can even go down the clone route with Jackal, Carrion, Ben Riley, Doppleganger, etc. Ben Riley could be a way to keep Tom Holland around if they wanted to, post reboot.
They could do the scorpion version of venom. And there are also the other goblins.

But I think F4 suffers from the same thing as a lot of post end-game moviesā¦ no interesting villains. F4 has Dr Doom and Galactus, and weāve seen on screen again a few times. They likely should have kept Kang to be a F4 villain instead of making another Antman movie. Superman, Batman and Spider-Man have an army of villains and interesting stories to tell, whereas a lot of these other franchises donāt.
I think as this point their best bet would be the ākill the idea of a superheroā. Meaning after secret wars, if mutants exist in the world, why do we need superheroes? That could give them a bit a clean slate to focus on mutants, magic and space for a bit, and let the avengers rest. Youād still have street level local heroes like Spider-Man and the defenders, but I canāt see them coming up with many more reality ending threats to keep people entertained.

As for him connecting to America. For the longest time, his motto was "Truth, Justice, and the American Way". Writers have slowly steered him away from that over time to make him a more global brand, but of course some people have complained about that here.

And since...Given the coverage Iāve seen thereās a few new things to factor in besides the whole āfatigueā talk. I think the international world is very tired of trump, and by proxy, America. And since Superman is supposed to be all about American values, Iām not sure people want to hear it given everything that is going on here. Even though Superman tries to be a global character, he basically lives in an idealized NYC. On the flip side, you have all the trump supporters hating on the movie, because Superman sees himself as an immigrant and alien, trying to spread equality, life and acceptance. It is counter to the message Republicans are sharing.
I think for me it came down to the treatment of Ganondorf and Zelda. The villain finally felt like he was a character with some real motive (whether or not it was bs). Tetra finally gave Zelda something other than being a voiceless kidnapped Zelda. You could argue Sheik gave Zelda some character, but she was mostly just speaking in riddles in Ocarina of Time. I think this was the turning point where both story and characters were beginning to matter to the series.
The final thing to add is that this art style was how the creator originally imagined the first Legend of Zelda to look like, and this was the first time the technology could achieve it. Itās the Zelda game that hasnāt really aged visually.
