But but but:
Building a comic book movie around 82 year old Harrison Ford is a choice.

But really the Marvel movies were always slop. It was just the right type of content at the right time
Basically anyone wanted to tag along and watch a Marvel movie in its hey day. Even if they weren't very good it didn't really matter.

I always went for dinner first and then head to the movies with my friends and/or co-workers, that accounted for like 50% of the Marvel experience and then afterwards you'd be like: "Oh yeah that thing Iron Man did was pretty cool". I barely watched any of the Marvel movies at home because as a movie in and by itself it was just mid.

Mackie cannot fail, he can only be failed!

To be fair, it probably is less Mackie and just that the character just isn't all that appealing. Like let's be honest, comic book characters already don't tend to have the deepest personalities and then Falcon doesn't even have an interesting background or origin story. It's just a dude with wings, and he's captain america now.
I posted it a little bit before you, but I think ultimately "Mackie is a great actor!" ignores all the outside aspects, which can still make make Mackie (or MCU's Sam Wilson if you wanna get technical) a hard transition to swallow, regardless of his chops.

None of the other Avengers are getting replaced with the definition of "some guy". There was no proper passing of the torch outside of some crap tier Disney show you need a subscription to watch. Making Don Cheadle the new Iron Man would've gotten a similar reception.

I think there is a valid racial argument to be made here about the pitfalls of constantly making the designated second-string dude a <insert minority> guy so often, but anyone intelligent enough to engage on that level probably smart enough to avoid wasting thought and energy on stupid Marvel movies. 

But I think it also is worth noting that everyone shrugged when Shuri became the new Black Panther, and there's no real racial aspect there to latch onto.

EDIT: I just remembered that one of the big scenes in the Captain America show was meme'd on for a long time for being so silly and stupid. Sam Wilson giving some speech to politicians to be more gooder was the writing on the wall.

The whole torch pass just seemed badly done. I don't even think it worked int the comics either, at least have I never heard anyone fondly talk about a Falcon Captain America story. Never seen any "Must read comics to prepare for Falcon Cap" articles either.
Now the MCU sometimes turned bad comics into something good but they lost that sauce a good while ago.

Hesright

Expect the next Avengers movie for the Avengers to be all white. Maybe one white chick max on the team.

I think Marvel also became a victim of its own success, a bit like the Wii.

Many normies went to see Marvel movies but then also went to see other things and upgraded to different tastes.
I know quite a few people who didn't watch movies at all, started with Marvel and then moved on to stuff like John Wick because they liked the action or romcoms because they liked the comedy.

Looks like the latest Marvel slop is getting badly reviewed. Can't wait to see Jeff Marvel running damage control.

The character who was boring as a side part in the captain america films, was boring as a cameo in ant man, and was boring in his own 6 part tv show is now the star of a boring film?

Narcan is not essential unless you are on opioids. No offense to you because I know you need them because you health problems. I was thinking in commies like Hachikoma when I wrote that.

I don't do opioids at all. Narcan is useful to have on the street not just for yourself but to potentially save someone else.

They already put the most interesting part of this story (doubts and difficulties in becoming the new Captain America) in a shitty TV series.

Again, I was thinking in Hachikoma and commie communities.

And yeah, it usually isn’t essential for survival kits.

Narcan is not an essential by any definition. 

Essentials: Food, shelter, clothing.

Non-essentials: Bathtub hormones, anti-overdose meds
You should never just hand out Narcan to randomers, you never know if they support a two state solution or have expressed centrist opinions (they probably have done)

I remember RE had a thread about this and a shocking number of people were pretty chill about saying that they also have some in the car in case their friend or loved one ODs which just seemed crazy to me.

I think I'm going to say it guys, America has a opioid problem
Me: Narcan is not essential for survival supplies.

Others: WHY DO YOU WANT TO BAN NARCAN AND KILL PEOPLE. Six
