So, there’s this article that caught my eye called Rotten Tomato Data ‘Proves’ Marvel Movies Are Getting Worse. I don’t know about you, but I’m a huge Marvel fan - I’ve seen every movie in the franchise at least twice. But apparently, according to Rotten Tomatoes, the movies aren’t doing as well as they used to.
Basically, the article breaks down how each Marvel movie has been rated on Rotten Tomatoes, a well-known website that aggregates movie reviews from critics and audiences. It turns out that the ratings have been steadily declining since Phase One of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Phase One includes movies like Iron Man, Thor, and The Avengers, which were all huge hits.
The article suggests that this decline could be due to superhero fatigue, meaning that people are getting tired of seeing the same types of movies over and over again. It could also be because there are so many superhero movies coming out these days that people are becoming more critical of them.
Personally, I think it’s a little bit of both. Don’t get me wrong, I still love watching the MCU movies, but I can see how some people might be getting tired of them. On the other hand, I think that superhero movies have become so popular that people have higher expectations for them now. They want to see something new and fresh, not just the same old formula.
In conclusion, even if the Rotten Tomatoes ratings are going down, I don’t think it means that the MCU is doomed. There are still plenty of die-hard fans out there (myself included) who will keep coming back for more. Plus, Marvel is constantly evolving and introducing new characters, so who knows what they have in store for us next?
