None of that was recent. Their recent track record for the past year has been dead on. As has Faraci when it comes to Marvel.
Homogenization of shitty superheroes movies that were already low quality.Total speculation, but Disney probably doesn't want any tonal drift in its Marvel franchisees. So if Wright's Ant Man was more an offbeat slapstick comedy heist film than a gritty action movie, it might not fit into the MCU big picture. That homogeny would make the Avengers movies stronger, but ensure the individual franchises can't ever be that interesting in their adaptations.
Star Wars is in deeeep shit.

Daredevil guy is doing sinister 6
The DD director left because Sony offered him a huge contract with Sinister 6 so...yeah.
The Wright thing posted by latino review makes no sense either.
Why wait till now and why would Disney get invoved after CA2 did so well?

Never said that it was but it is a quality film because of his handling.Just a voice of reason, but I'm sure The Avengers broke $1.5 billion because it was directed by Whedon. Lol.
How do you explain what happened with Ant-Man and Daredevil?
That was just a year ago. What have they said since then that's been accurate?
Devin knows someone in Disney. He also broke that Abrams was fighting w/ Lucasfilm & Disney last summer. At the time people wrote it off, but it turned out that he was absolutely right, and the fights were over scripting & scheduling.
Abrams has more leverage than Wright, Whedon & Goddard, so he got what he wants - until the movies don't hit their projected numbers.
Again - you can't just see the words "Latino Review" and pat yourself on the back like "Can't fool me, Latino Review!" because it doesn't work that way. They've missed a few times, but they've hit largely - and Devin wouldn't run this without doing his own verification aside from whatever reporting Umberto's doing over at Latino Review.
People are essentially just now starting to realize that Marvel ACTUALLY IS A CORPORATION, and not a single-minded, artist-friendly hive mind of really cool guys who care about the integrity of the movies they make.
In short - Marvel is just like ANY OTHER STUDIO operating in the film industry. Down to the executives looking to use the films made, and the profits earned, as a means to secure power within that industry. The quality of the product is secondary, if not tertiary, to those ends.
after hearing all this, i don't have high hopes for ant man or black panther.

You trying to hand wave away the individual writers and directors involvement is really strange.

Kevin Fegie Leaves marvel to pursue other interest.
Future Future Thread title:
Kevin Fegie Signs 10 year deal with WB to head all DC projects
Why are they undermining Kevin Feige? Didn't he take a bunch of leftovers from the Fox licensing deal, and turn it into the biggest current film franchise? What more do they want?
Hopefully GotG was too far along for them to meddle with too much.
Lucas controlled it. Can't get much worse.
Then why even take the position of "audiences won't care"?No I'm not.
But you can take it that way if you want to.
