Getting Rid of the Sokovia Accords

In the DisneyPlus streaming series, “SHE-HULK: ATTORNEY AT LAW”, the MCU finally got rid of the problematic Sokovia Accords when attorney Matt Murdock aka Daredevil revealed the Accords had finally been repealed. Considering my six-year criticism of how the MCU had introduced this legislation in “CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR” (one of my least favorite MCU films), utilized it in productions like “AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D.”, “ANT-MAN & THE WASP”, “THE AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR”, “WANDAVISION” and “THE FALCON AND THE WINTER SOLDIER”; I was very happy to learn this about the Accords’ fate.

However . . . I find myself questioning Disney and Marvel Films’ latest decision regarding the Sokovia Accords. I have problems with its repeal or eradication. I have a problem with how Disney/Marvel Films got rid of it - via a throwaway line. For years, MCU showrunner Kevin Feige tried to tell us that there were two sides to the Sokovia Accords. I had called bullshit to that idea due to my belief that the Accords violated the U.S. Constitutional and the constitutional rights of enhanced people overall and not just the Avengers.

I had hoped that the MCU would get rid of the Accords by exploring the issue of how the Accords violated the rights of many. But the franchise never did this. Instead, the MCU rid itself of the Accords with a quick line - one that would enable the franchise to avoid discussing how WRONG the Accords were in the first place. All I can say is . . . Feige and the Disney suits are a bunch of cowards.

ngl, I'm beginning to take issue with how in conversations about anti-intellectualism almost automatically, the face of girls and women will be slapped on the problem.

#'all those tiktok girls who only like marvel films and' - why do you always say girls and women? are the guys filling opera halls instead?#'women in their mid 20s who still only read YA novels' okay sure that's an example and relevant discussions can be had #but it reminds me of the mocking tone in which people speak of 'chick-lit' to use women's interest as an indicator of lower value #while in fact women are reading more than men in EVERY single genre of fiction. Women are doing a lot of (often unpaid) labour #supporting libaries supporting theatres supporting cultural events #meanwhile there is a pretty big overlap between toxic masculinity and anti-intellectualism #(especially misogyny and homophobia)#especially when it comes to things like ballet or opera or musical or generally dance #in fact it is often the female investment in specific things that makes them less 'valuable' in general consciousness #for thousands of years the theatre was well-respected and a high form of art - and now it's a 'wife-thing'#the father who will teach his son that theatre and dance are for girls - how is that never an example for anti-intellectualism

i genuinely want the mcu to end so badly. the whole "every movie takes place in the same universe and they're all connected" worked well in the earlier days, but now it just hurts the quality. i would have loved to see what an ant-man 3 or a doctor strange 2 could have been if it didn't need to put aside its own identity in service of furthering a larger story. and as the release schedule gets more and more crowded, it just gets harder and harder to remain invested in literally anything.

#notice how the best mcu films are (1) most of the origin stories and (2) guardians of the galaxy #because you don't need to watch ten billion other movies to understand and enjoy them #also notice how a lot of the animated non-mcu marvel movies manage to do the characters BETTER than the mcu #because they don't have to work around ten billion existing movies to tell their story #i speak #mcu critical #anti mcu

Also shoutout to Daniel Kaluuya to all of his anti-fascist characters. We love a man who consistently represents the struggle against authoritarians.

Saying that media, literature, and artwork isn't political is anti-intellectual ideology meant to silence minorities and artists.

the music and film industry specifically the latter in light of the recent news about spiderverse prove once again that passion and innovation do not get rewarded under capitalism, they get exploited.

recently, a handful of animators came forward to share their story about the working conditions on this movie. allegedly they worked 11 hours a day, without a day off. 77 hours a week. they were treated like machines.

capitalism is inherently coercive. it sucks everything out of the workers. their energy, their creativity, their worth. under capitalism, you, as a worker, have no leverage over your labour. if you have the guts to quit, you'll potentially be risking everything and you will be replaced by someone else who needs the job.

as much as I ADORED this movie, i cannot stand for this and I will not be able to enjoy beyond the spiderverse clean of conscience, especially if they are able to release it on its scheduled release date. the animators created a masterpiece. they deserve the recognition and love for their work. the circumstances under which this movie was crafted were inhumane and abusive and under the current promise of releasing the sequel in less than a year the situation can only get worse.

no amount of pay will ever justify 77 hours a week. art cannot be rushed. if we continue to only praise this masterpiece without criticising the people on top who take all the profit for themselves and exploit their workers, it will prove to them that ultimately it was all worth it and consequently, these actions were okay.

if the release does not get pushed back, I will have no other choice but to boycott spiderverse next year and i encourage you to do the same. if you really love these movies, its the least we can do.

I hope after the writers strike the CGI creators will go on a strike too. Firstly, because they need to, and second it will piss off so many people and so many MCU stans.

#yeah i just see so many marvel stans pissed #thanks to the wga strike they had to stop filming the thunderbolst #yeah i'm sorry you're totally right #your entertainment is more important than people standing up for themselves #anti mcu stans

I just watched Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 and I felt like it really solidified one of the reasons why Endgame just did not work in my opinion which was that none of the characters whose stories were ending in that movie actually got a proper send-off that was focused on them. This is because, in Endgame, everything was taking place in the midst of a much larger story where a major goal was still to set up future storylines and ultimately to try to give partial or equal focus to a really unreasonable number of characters. I always hate on Steve’s ending in particular and while I do definitely think it was a majorly poor choice for his character in general it was also just really rushed and didn’t make sense given the pretty minimal amount of time that was allocated to his character in that movie, whereas if Steve had gotten to go out on a final Captain America movie I’m sure it would have been much more likely for him to get an ending that actually aligned with his arc as a whole and within that film. Plus, characters that are so well established deserve to get a real conclusion that is focused on them! And it worked so well in GOTG3 to actually have that but I couldn’t believe it when I realized that this is the first time in the MCU that a series has gotten to end in that way. I feel like it really goes to show how much this type of franchise storytelling wrecks character arcs more often than not because the priority is always the bigger picture rather than the individual story, and I’m happy Guardians got to end in this way but the other characters should have gotten that too :(

#i also think gotg only got that bc they've been much less central to the mcu as a whole then say captain america was #so marvel doesn't feel the need to find a way to keep it going #although maybe they actually are keeping star lord around i guess #i also think it was really obvious that james gunn did all 3 films (in a good way)#bc the arcs were quite cohesive across all the movies #guardians of the galaxy #guardians of the galaxy vol 3 #gotg #gotg3 #guardians of the galaxy spoilers #gotg spoilers #guardians of the galaxy vol 3 spoilers #gotg3 spoilers #there aren't actually spoilers but tagging them just to be courteous #anti endgame #marvel #mcu

You know, I wasn't going to say anything, but considering I came out of the movie with barely anything I liked, I gotta say Thor Love and Thunder is hot garbage. And is not queer positive, is not feminist, is not friendly to trauma and cancer victims and is very much the parody it's predecessor was, no, even more so the parody.

And at this point I doubt the director has any actual progressive bone in his body. And that's that.

#Thor Love and Thunder #Thor 4 #Thor 3 #anti thor love and thunder #anti thor 4 #anti taika waititi #Im done giving this man more credit than he's worth #also people calling this movie the queerest marvel movie yet are just fucking liars #OH and valkyrie finding a Queen? LMAO don't make me fucking laugh #as if ANYONE making this movie cared - another splendid depiction of queerbaiting #well done well done #and before anyone goes defending waititi because of how EVIL marvel is - he did NOT have to make any of the choices he did in this film #and GOD does he not shut the fuck up - holy shit #as always I go in with no expectations and find an even worse result

MCU’s Biggest Problem

It is time for the MCU to get rid of the Sokovia Accords. NOW. Ever since its debut in “Captain America: Civil War”, it has done squat for the franchise. Writers for the franchise have either mishandled this narrative device in movies and television shows like “Civil War”, “Ant-Man & the Wasp” and “Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” with sloppy or implausible writing; or have completely ignored it. Worse, moviegoers are still expected to believe that an accord is a law (it’s not). I get the feeling that Kevin Feige, writers Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely, and the writers for “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” and other MCU projects do not know the definition of “accord”. Also, Feige and his writers, along with Mutant Enemy and its writers have failed to grasp that the Sokovia Accords is basically a violation of the U.S. Constitution, something I had immediately knew six years ago. Are fans of the MCU really expected to believe that it is okay for any government to strictly monitor, harass or imprison people from a certain group, due to the actions of a handful of individuals from that particular group? Isn’t that a form of bigotry? Are you telling me that Kevin Feige, Marvel Films, Disney Studios and the Mutant Enemy production company are advocates of bigotry after all? If not . . . find a way to finally get rid of the Sokovia Accords.

#anti mcu #anti marvel cinematic universe #anti disney studios #anti kevin feige #anti marvel films #anti mutant enemy #anti sokovia accords #sokovia accords #captain america civil war #anti-man & the wasp #ant-man and the wasp #marvel's agents of shield #agents of s.h.i.e.l.d.#aos #anti christopher markus #anti stephen mcfeely

...So uh, basically bootleg Suicide Squad featuring not even a comic's accurate team but instead, just random characters picked randomly from throughout the MCU, including even character's that make zero fucking sense to be on the team???

#anti mcu #cant even make their own plot #just gonna go for another film plot instead #like looking into the team in comics and where did the government stuff come from #where did goverment sends them on missions come from #in comics history from looks of stuff they just form cause the avengers are...well...dead....like always with heroes dying in comics lol #but like theres no signs of government #but that is what you know the squad in dc are #a government formed team who have villains as members in exchange for time off their sentences #granted marvel aint copying why the villains do it #but they seem to be copying the government element #and yeah if anyone curious which members make no sense mcu wise #honestly only us agent actually makes sense lmao #bucky we know makes zero sense at this point as hes a hero at this point after being freed from hydra and such #ghost literally at the end of ant man 2 was said to be getting the cure she needs aka her motivation for villain stuff #taskmaster and red guardian literally ended black widow leaving with the freed black widows and such not doing evil stuff #hell taskmaster falls into same area as bucky: mindcontrol- so how the hell does she count as evil #yelena they can't seem to make their mind up on but i generally assume hawkeye show intended for her to not be doing evil sutff anymore #since she only sought revenge on hawkeye thats it #but once told the truth suddenly no longer evil stuff #like only US agent actually makes sense and the lady at the end of the line who i guess is attempt at mcu waller #which...good luck because waller is a good character while this one so far...isnt
