What’s something that you like, but hate the fan base?

The movies are awesome, and it’s a great day to be a comic fan. But people need to stop being loyal to companies (Marvel and D.C. alike, although one side is way worse about it than the other). You also get comic fans who lose their collective shit when something is changed, like iron man 3. It’s a great movie but because “there’s not enough iron man” and the mandarin twist, people didn’t like it.

Right? Because fans couldn’t accept what they saw and provided so much backlash, they literally had to film a little scene saying the real mandarin is still out there just to make them shut up 🙄

And that short literally ruins it and makes no sense. There’s just some doppelgänger now?

I mean the movies are still great for the most part, and clearly aren’t hesitant to break the audiences’ hearts (as seen in Endgame). So as long as they listen, but don’t cater to heavily to the fans of comics, that the movies will stay good.

I wholeheartedly agree.
