The never-ending battle against woke Hollywood and SJW infused entertainment media [trigger warning]

Have you watched it yet (Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness)?

 

How bad was that America Chavez character?

How much wokeness was in the film in comparison to other MCU films?

 

I thought Marvel might have learned something from the failure of that clearly female supremacist DC series Batwoman, the title of which makes me cringe even as someone who's not a fan of grimdark Batman, or much of the modern-day superhero film universe in general.

I just came back from watching it in the theater... a spectacular sequel. You'd be hard pressed to find very many people who enjoyed the first film and not this one.

@Mrs. NIGHTBRINGER loved it too!

 

That's a bit tougher then. I guess it would depend on why you thought the original was okay. It's like trying to predict if someone will like The Empire Strikes back if they thought A New Hope was only okay. Or Godfather II if you thought the original Godfather was only okay. Etc.

This film respects the first film and pays homage to it. It develops the story and characters in logical and satisfying ways. It has really top notch and exciting action scenes. It pulls on the emotional heartstrings. It is not woke.

It's a great film, but I wouldn't guarantee that you'll love it if you thought the first was only okay. Up to you if you want to roll the dice on it. At worst, its still a pretty cool action flick.

 

I should also add, if someone is on the fence, Maverick is the type of movie that really benefits from the theater experience. The superior size and sound really makes you feel the power of the aircraft. Consequently, I'd recommend against the "I'll watch it when it comes to video/streaming" approach. That's just my opinion though.
