The best of the MCU generally seems to come when you let creators with a vision have more or less full reign of the character with very little expectation(true of comics as well). They also seem to do well when they try to be genre films Guardians was great because there was really no expectation and Gunn was allowed to craft his own thing. Ditto Ragnarok, which was another space opera and a sort of Hail Mary on a character who was floundering. Winter Soldier was pretty similar to 70s Political Thrillers. Antman shines when it leans into the heist stuff. Jessica Jones first season was great with the Noir elements. Multiverse of Madness really shines when Raimi is allowed to turn it into an unofficial Evil Dead sequel. I felt like Shang Chi should've leaned more into a practical Kung Fu movie, but it did some things right, and again, a character they had full reign to do their own thing with. It's backfired (Luke Cage couldn't really commit to the Neo Blaxploitation thing it was doing), Moon Knight really didn't take anything from the great runs that reinvigorated the character in the past decade or so, but generally I think that's the recipe for success there.

I'd go practical action/martial arts movie with Blade. There are directors out there who can do it, I just don't know if they'd want to play ball with Marvel given all the creative control they have.


Back on topic of the Haslab, interested to see where HasCon goes today, the information for the panel says they're gonna talk about this, so maybe they can pull it out from sort of the shitty purgatory it's in. They definitely have the opportunity.
