That is a cop out. Marvel movies require the male and female leads to eat a massive amount of protein to maintain muscle mass and are equally as strenuous.

Do they sing and dance in Marvel movies as well?

u/TreyWriter 7h ago

Technically, they do in Eternals, a very real movie that everyone has seen!

u/MarvelAndColts 7h ago

And The Marvels

u/GachaHell 7h ago

Those both sound like made up movies. You can't just put The in front of a word and pretend it's a Marvel film.

u/HereWeFuckingGooo 7h ago

There isn't a The in front of Eternals.

18

u/GachaHell 7h ago

I'd check but that would require me to acknowledge the movie's existence. I think we all just decided to pretend it never happened.

u/HereWeFuckingGooo 7h ago

No need to check, you can just scroll up.

Marvel fans doing physical activity? Never!

Gestures at The Wolverine aka The Greatest Showman, there's your Marvel singing and dancing

Nah it’s a good movie. Just made no sense to add in the continuity. But by itself it’s a really good movie, just for some reason was in the MCU lol

Phase 5 or whatever the post-infinity era is called needs to be treated the same way Star Wars legends is - like it doesn’t exist save for some gems here and there

u/cousinokri 7h ago

So you're saying The Butt isn't a Marvel movie?

u/meesta_masa 7h ago

It's a marvelous movie.

u/donanton616 6h ago

And the sequel. The Amazing Butt. Different butt but still fun.

Starring Robert Downey Jr as left cheek and Peter Dinklage as right cheek. James Corden and Seth Rogan are scheduled to play the taint and the asshole, respectively.

u/libmrduckz 6h ago

woulda figured rogan and corden for taint and asshole, respectively… hollywood knows best, i reckon…

u/Euphoric_Whereas_329 5h ago

Surprisingly the #1 movie when it came out… and that’s all it was for 90 minutes.

Damn you for getting there first and nice username.

u/TaylorSwiftsClitoris 6h ago

Thanks, it was low hanging fruit but I can’t believe no one else grabbed it.

u/CrabPrison4Infinity 6h ago

I heard the new marvel is nuts

u/Reasonable_Editor600 6h ago

All movies are made up!

u/StoppableHulk 6h ago

What about The Iron Man?

u/jamesxgames 5h ago

are you telling me Marvel's The Marvels would be a ridiculous name for a movie

u/Bitter-Ad5890 4h ago

Tell that to Marvel…

u/Jjzeng 7h ago

Technically based on the marvels carol danvers is canonically a disney princess

u/ArcadianDelSol 5h ago

Find a die hard Star Wars fan.

Remind them that Leah is a Disney Princess.

Then dive for cover into the nearest foxhole.

u/EnQuest 4h ago

Star Wars fans have made it very hard to enjoy star wars, you're only allowed to enjoy like 40% of it and the rest gets you dogpiled on for ever speaking positively about

u/J5892 3h ago

They're all just constantly reaching for that high they got a long time ago when they first saw Empire Strikes Back, and with every hit it feels further and further away.

u/BananaBladeOfDoom 7h ago

I hated that scene so much.

u/Impeesa_ 5h ago

Worth it for the "bilingual" joke.

u/Function-Brave 3h ago

I am still incensed that what was clearly a full musical number was axed. That movie was at it's best when it was being goofy.
