    I think that plays into his point about good storytelling.
    It’s not that comic book movies are inherently bad, it’s that they tend to rely on their format instead of being good in their own right.

      But again I think you’re talking about MCU super hero movies not “comic book movies” which can be anything from v for vendetta, to sweet tooth.
