#in my head they felt like standard 2000s teen dramas idk how to explain it cuz again i never paid that much attention to them
Note
ok im late but. if you have watched the early 00s x-men movies, do you view them as camp? on the one hand they definitely embody a lot of the darker, leathery, blue-tinted comics of the time since 9/11 really affected comics tone a lot, but on the other hand they were silly and goofy and didnt try to separate themselves from the campiness of the superhero genre the way the mcu does
i HAVE seen them but it was sooo long ago, and probably not in full cuz they were always playing on tv. i’ll need to rewatch them because i do understand what you mean but from my vague memory of them, it felt like they were afraid of going too camp like the source material. they were definitely very melodramatic tho
#in my head they felt like standard 2000s teen dramas idk how to explain it cuz again i never paid that much attention to them#i remember liking xmen first class? but that was hunger games era i was obsessed with anything and everything it was insane#imo the best superhero movies are self-serious melodramatic and kinda bad#and also cheesy. LIKE that’s just what their essence is to me#like that fucking ang lee hulk movie omfg and for some reason i’ve only watched it during ashura with my cousins so the vibes were insane#spiderman 2 is probably the best superhero movie and it’s just so stupid (affectionate)#all the pre-mcu suoerhero movies are very fun to analyse#ask#anon
