Do you think we are living in a new renaissance and that in 200 years they will talk about marvel like we do with...

powerful, we are living in the golden age and most don't even realize it

Remember when Avengers was the greatest movie ever mad- oh sorry it was Civil Wa- nope it was Black Panth- shit it was Homecomin- no it was IW- oh now it's Endgame.

Wow It's like different people like different things.

I have realized that cults never stopped going out of style, we just belong to corporate ones now. SOMEONE WAKE ME UP.

Remember when Robert W. Chambers was the greatest writer alive?

>I doubt it'll take up its own cornerstone of pop culture history though, as it basically exhibits the same aspects Harry Potter and Twilight had in their heyday and will most likely end up getting lumped in with them as "shit that was huge back in the day"
user, both of those things are still huge and were both pretty influential.

Universal studios will still have Harry potter rides in 200 years

great now I need a tinfoil hat. Thanks.

Marvel will go down in history as the reason the entire comics industry finally imploded.

it's the same people

Good god no. When I think about how future generations are going to look back on this cesspool of a generation I can only weep.

>disneyslaves
>different people
you nigger will remake that post with "star wars" in a few months.

I think this has Harry Potter and Twilight beat because of how meticulously planned out it was.
Also its different than HP and Twilight because its more horizontal (if you get what I'm saying) in its building of a narrative rather than linear like the former two.

But is it up there with Beethoven or Picasso? Doubt it, but that doesn't take away from MCU's crowning achievement of crafting a intricate universe that held audiences attention far longer than ever seen before (where movies were usually seen as single/self contained things). I think people will look back onto it in the same way they saw LOTR or Star Wars or Blockbusters, as a highlight of the pop culture of the era rather than a cultural achievement on its own.

I wonder if people in 70s and 80s said the same thing about Star Wars trilogy

No because the general public loathed Beethoven. Only people who were hated in their lifetimes get post-humorous appreciation.

We're gonna talk about it like we talk about Star Wars. It's a big, paradigm-shifting artwork that hailed new ideas about how a film series should work and really exemplified what the time was about culturally. The films themselves were all mostly pretty good too, but the real discussion will be about how they managed to get so big and popular and the general influence and widespread appeal they had and how that affected cultural trends going forward/how the culture of the era led to their popularity.

>Proceeds to shtipost on 4channel

in 200s years humanity will either be dead or have fallen back to into a technological dark age.
either way nobody will be able to remember or look up marvel

In other words, these weren’t great artworks that changed people’s perceptions. They were a marketing trend.

No, these won’t be remembered all that much. Take away the marketing and established characters and you have dull, generic action movies. They’re today’s version of the Westerns of the studio era: common as dirt, wildly popular, open to great artistic possibility but rarely tested, easily forgotten when the trend is dead.

>In other words, these weren’t great artworks that changed people’s perceptions.
I feel like people have a swekered perception of this in the first place. How is it possible to change one's perception with an artwork? I highly doubt Beethoven or Picasso actually did that. They were eventually popularied by the critics, not the public. Same for things like Citizen Kane. But now we got this image that a true "masterpiece" is supposed to be something special and different, but we don't even know what exactly it is supposed to be.

Add to that the ironic culture. How can anything ever become different and special if everything that comes out instantly gets mocked and memed about, either for being just another small bit in our frame of reference ("wow, it's another bland generic action movie") or being outside our frame or reference altogether ("wow, it's another artsy fartsy degenerate shit").

We live in a climate where only the works of past can be praised, as they are kind of immune to the ironic culture, since they preceed it. But it's almost a common implication that "nothing new that gets released can be as good as that thing that was released before I was born/back in my childhood".

Forget whatever tripe /pol/ has shat out, this is the true and final redpill. Thanks for sharing user.

this IS /pol/ shit, if you agree with it you are agreeing with /pol/, in case you didn't notice

SUPERHEROES ARE MODERN MYTHOLOGY! THEY ARE OUR ERA'S ZEUS AND HERCULES! I KNOW THIS IS TRUE BECAUSE MY LIBERAL UNIVERSITY PHILOSPHY PROFESSOR SAID SO AND I HAD TO AGREE WITH HIM IN ORDER TO PASS THE FINAL EXAM AND GET MY DIPLOMA!

This is your brain on disney. Only WB can save us now.

Nah, nothing there strikes me as particularly /pol/-tier shit even if it was posted there (Which I don't think it was.) It strikes me more as perfectly valid societal observations based on our technology, the human psyche and patterns we as a species have consistently acted upon over time.

Non-American here. Everyone here knows The Simpsons, South Park and Spiderman, but majority of the normies wouldn't be able to recognize any MCU characters. You can show someone an image of Cartman and they would immediately know where he's from and what kind of character he is even if they never watched a single episode of South Park, but show them an image of any Marvel character and at the best they'd guess it's some kind of superhero character. Much like they'd know that an anime character is from Japanese animation.

In the end MCU is very niche thing and it doesn't have that big cultural impact.

McBeth was the trashy flick of the day. Royals were all about Jesus retellings

What is this gif from anyways

>anonymous internet with freedom of speech? You are totally not different from my feefee hugebox with names controlled by a big fat corpo !
yikes.

The only boards with freedom of speech is Yea Forums and /trash/. You get fucking banned here for posting colorful ponies.

Hell, you can post porn on Twitter without getting banned. Can't do that on Yea Forums.

>Real Life
It's not fake?

Nah, it's retarded. Yes, most of the stock market movement is controlled by algorithms, but those algorithms are still controlled by humans, the two main reasons why algorithms are used is because there's no other way in which the millions of daily orders and billions of stock being traded in the market can be processed and traded efficiently without the use of powerful algorithms. The second reason is high volume stock trading that uses even a small decrease/increase in a stock price to earn huge profits. So I have no idea how the fuck did the /pol/poster manage to come up with the assumption that just because the stock market is largely being used by computers(because there's no fucking way humans can process and make millions of trade orders a second) means that the magic algorithms control all parts of everyday life. Like the only thing I can think of is Facebook, and that only applies if you spend all your time on facebook and not actively search for your own content/news/sources/media. And seriously? All that shit about religion? I can give you a much simpler answer. Humans are retarded and have a mob menially when like minded retards gather. Also the internet is a echo chamber where this retards gather and have a voice. Seriously, all that bullshit about MUH SOCIETY fails to mention the fact that soccer fans have been doing shit like spending billions of dollars watching a bunch of men chasing around a ball, where your average soccer will do things like regularly start fights, murder people, cause riots and start fires. This applies to most really popular sports. All before the internet was invented.

No.

21st century will be knows as part of a new cultural dark age.
It will recognize how art fell, consumerism peaked and selfishness promoted separation.
The Marvel cinematic age will mark the prevalence of energy drinks, digital enslavement and the commercialization or ideology.
The dip in consciousness between the age of reason and what comes after this. If we or our history survive.

You sound like a fucking commie
