I’m currently reading “Look Out For The Little Guy” by Scott Lang and it’s really fascinating how they managed to give real life advice in a silly little book. It mentions that Clint and Bruce encouraged him to write the book. And the fact that he has a whole chapter dedicated to Natasha while barely knowing her is so good
While I may not watch MCU projects anymore, I still love The Infinity Saga for both what it accomplished, as well as being a foot in the door for why I love film so much today. I hope to read this one by the end of the year.
Agreed 🤝 sad to see it fell off imo, but we’ll always have Phase 1-3 (and I really liked No Way Home and Guardians 3, Shang Chi was kinda cool too, so I’ll have those too :D)
@@NinthShinigami Exactly. Just because I think the franchise has been taking bigger dips in its quality and general interest with most of its projects doesn’t mean that the people at Marvel Studios didn’t achieve something amazing. The MCU isn’t for me anymore, but that doesn’t take away that there was nothing like the MCU’s eleven year long success.
Ehhhh I find the hate overblown. Yes the products have been somewhat uneven, but at least Marvel was taking risks and experimenting with new genres in their movies/shows. Better to do something new and stumble than coast on goodwill forever.
@@benwasserman8223 I certainly don’t hate the MCU, and I’m pretty sure Ninth Shinigami doesn’t hate the MCU either. Even you called their movies and shows “products” instead of “projects”. When there’s multiple movies releasing every year with several week to week TV series on top of that, it gets to be oversaturated. And when there’s multiple movies and multiple shows releasing every year, the quality drops quite a bit. Also, you mentioned how they’re experimenting and taking risks. First off, they haven’t delivered on most of those risks in my opinion. And if a risk doesn’t pay off, it doesn’t really matter to me if the risk had a great idea in it. Both She-Hulk and Thor: Love and Thunder were certainly risks that had some mildly interesting stuff in them, but they didn’t pay off whatsoever for me. And secondly, they’ve done so many different projects in so many different genres that their audience is now segmented. The audience for Ms. Marvel isn’t the same audience for Eternals, which isn’t the same audience for Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. It doesn’t build momentum well, which makes the box office and viewership numbers on streaming go down. In conclusion, I don’t hate the MCU. You read my comment on why I still really love The Infinitely Saga. That’s a group of twenty three movies right there. That’s not hate at all.
Regardless of the disappointing misfires that Marvel has been putting out since Phase 3 ended (discounting NWH, Shang Chi, and Loki) it’s undeniable how monumental the MCU was for movie franchises and long-form storytelling in the mainstream in general.
@@mugen9147 Seeing how one was a cultural phenomenon with non-MCU fans, one is the highest-rated Marvel show on Rotten Tomatoes per critics, and the other actually made Namor look badass in live-action - yes. Yes I am.
@@benwasserman8223 bro said rotten tomatoes 🤣🤣 and Namor badass? In Wakanda Forever? Slide that 5 hour Coogler cut cause we definitely didn’t see the same movie 😂
Never knew this was out, so many of my issues with the MCU feels like corporate issues so I am definitely gonna get this from the library now, cheers Sean!
Can’t wait for the sequel book, “And Then Came Along Phase 4” I’m kidding 😂 seems interesting enough for a read. It can’t be denied MCU was monumental for movie franchises in the 2010’s
I had very much considered getting the 2-volume, self-published history. However, I imagined that it would place itself on a pedestal. I’m glad that this offers a 3rd party perspective and, as you put it, Sean, a critical look. Definitely adding to my Christmas Wish List.
I found this book yesterday by accident. Now seeing you talking abut it. I might get this. I have been an MCU fan since the very first trailer of Iron Man. I have not had a problem with anything the MCU has done till today. I just love Movies period.
Actually attended the panel for this book at New York Comic Con. Looks like a pretty good read - I can add it to my gigantic 2-volume Disney-approved MCU history tome (in my defense, that book was at half price).
Seemed like a good opportunity for a tangential video. Don’t normally make book reviews but this one made sense I’ll probably do another video more on takeaways about the mcu
That was a casual comment blown up by headlines. Feige was not saying they’re doing a full reboot or anything. Just that secret wars provides an opportunity to remove some things that aren’t working
It's hilarious that this book was published the same week that Marvel Studios released their biggest flop ever, and pounded yet one more nail in their own coffin.
Nope, too thick, any thicker than a basic comic book... I'm out, LOL. I noticed how you said passages, definitely reflective of your youth pastor days. Thanks for the book review, I might pull the trigger on Audible for this one.
@@berjo516 true, but since I knew his background, it just made me think of that. I would say Jules quoted a great passage, Ezekiel 25:17, haha, now I want to watch Pulp Fiction.
Still think the whole James Gun part is odd. The books hides behind “sexism” but what it is is a writer wanting coequal credit for a script they didn’t write. Gross and they didn’t even interview Gunn. Very one sided and the fact it cites RUclips as part of backlash is laughable. No studio looks at RUclips

On top of that I loved the little detail that Scott respects Spider-mans taste in movies.
What😂😂😂
I literally just bought a copy a few hours ago. Can't wait to read it. It's so cool they released the actual book from the film
Does it have a post-credits scene on the back cover?
Don’t spoil it if you read it.
@@KadeemG61I can confirm it does and there's a bunch of mind blowing cameos in there

@@benwasserman8223 funny, I think there’s still too much support and praise for phase 4. Definitely an overrated phase.
I would really love to see more book reviews on your channel. I love the movie reviews but the book review certainly was a great change-up
Regardless of the disappointing misfires that Marvel has been putting out since Phase 3 ended (discounting NWH, Shang Chi, and Loki) it’s undeniable how monumental the MCU was for movie franchises and long-form storytelling in the mainstream in general.
Agreed
WandaVision, What If, Guardians 3, Ms. Marvel, Wakanda Forever and Werewolf by Night all beg to differ.
@@benwasserman8223 bro really said WandaVision Ms Marvel and Wakanda Forever 🤣

great you talked about it. It's really interesting because apparently it's going to reboot the franchise after Secret Wars...
That was a casual comment blown up by headlines. Feige was not saying they’re doing a full reboot or anything. Just that secret wars provides an opportunity to remove some things that aren’t working
Sean could you do a buy sell or rent of rumoured phase six movies
Such as
Doctor strange 3
Shang chin2
Spider man 4
Also good video
Not yet. Not enough of those are officially announced
@@SeanChandlerTalksAbouthe said "rumoured" not "announced"
Question: so I know this is not a horror vid but, do you know if I can watch evil dead 2 before the evil dead (1981)?
I hope Marvel gets it together man
Is there a link for the book?
Oooooo that looks interesting...... Gonna get a copy.....
Im up to chapter 7. I love it! Im such a nerd for bts stuff. Its all there. Great shit Uncle Sean 😜
Lol I literally purchased the audiobook this morning
It’s fun to remember those glory days
They never ended
@@captainjakemerica4579 Everything ends in time. For me, the MCU died with Tony Stark. I just didn’t know it then.
@bookdmb nah it's not over nope
How did you finish that huge book under a month?
It's hilarious that this book was published the same week that Marvel Studios released their biggest flop ever, and pounded yet one more nail in their own coffin.
I have a book similiar to that. It's called "The Marvel Universe."
The coffee table book? I mention it at the end of the video

Well…yes. However, I’m an English teacher and calling something a ‘reading passage’ is not new.
@@berjo516 true, but since I knew his background, it just made me think of that. I would say Jules quoted a great passage, Ezekiel 25:17, haha, now I want to watch Pulp Fiction.
A real page turner huh. Can't wait for a sequel, MCU: The fall of the Marvel Empire.
Nah not the fall the renaissance
Josh Whedon is scum but its foolish to ingore The Avengers and Avengers Age of Ultron like my former friends who give him the Chris Benoit treatment
First
