my dad loves those Deadpool movies but he has no idea who Kevin Feige is. i think they’re massively overestimating how much the average person knows or cares about Disney/Fox business drama and IP ownership rights
@soonrightaway @ArronsGhost Is that in the plot and not a one off gag (avoiding trailer)
@soonrightaway Most of the people I meet don't care about the difference between Marvel and DC. Its just superhero movies.
@soonrightaway My dad is the X-men fan in the family and he’s seen 90% of the MCU movies. I’d bet money he has no idea who Feige is.
@soonrightaway I also think they have massively overestimated how much the average normie can follow the MCU at large when they greatly expanded the character roster and all the multi verse shit. Like that's just for people trained to follow comics, not normies needed to fund 200$ mil pictures
@soonrightaway Reminds me of Space Jam 2 when Lebron just lists off Warner Bros properties off the top of his head as if the average person knows which franchises are Warner Bros
@soonrightaway I once explained this to a professor of mine. In college. Regular people absolutely do not know or care about this.
@soonrightaway I’m regularly reminding my mom how Disney owns something or other when it comes up and it’s always immediately forgotten
@soonrightaway I don’t expect it to be much more than just a few gags, and I don’t really think “he’s the head of the marvel shit” is that complicated of an explanation. Still, it’s pretty obnoxious.
