Obligatory disclaimer: real life sucks. Jane Goodall is dead. Let us talk about something else – say, the now released Marvel™ Zombies?
Yeah, no. Marvel™ Zombies is not bad, but-
-But, first, again, it is a comb-over. Alongside the
F4 film, set in an entirely different universe, Disney/MCU released ‘Ironheart’,
the adventures of Riri Williams, and it was bad. Politically incorrect as well,
and Disney, in all of its’ incarnations, including Marvel, hates this.
Therefore, it released ‘The Eyes of Wakanda’, another online miniseries, and
they were not bad, just rushed, as we have discussed earlier. Consequently,
once the dust settled, and the bad taste of ‘Ironheart’ vanished, Disney/MCU
released Marvel™ Zombies, a spin-off of the previously released ‘What if?’ a
Marvel universe where everything is as bad as possible, and oh, all that angst!
…Somehow, Disney/MCU are in no hurry to get rid of them, and how does this
mini-series end? Why, it is with Riri Williams! Pause.
Disney can be stubborn and sneaky – or so it thinks.
In the SW universe, the ‘Sequel Trilogy’ (movies 7-9) and how Disney/SW handled
them, fractured the SW fan base and caused a lot of damage to the franchise,
and what did Disney/SW do? Release ‘The Mandalorian’ series, which were a hit
(despite their own problems, cough), and the S3 season of the series? (‘The
Book of Boba Fett’ does not count), showed how the SW of the sixth film’s
finale became the SW of the seventh film’s premiere. The fan base realized this
clearly enough, and the reactions were mixed. Disney/SW did not despair, and
are releasing a feature film sequel to the now-finished series in the near with
a trailer that is clearly showing that the Empire (aka the First Order) is
coming back. How that film will go we will have to wait and see. So how does
this connect to Disney/Marvel?
Just as Disney used – or tried to use – ‘The
Mandalorian’ to fix the fans’ issues with the Disney SW vision, it seems to be
trying to use Marvel™ Zombies to fix the fans’ issue as to how they view Riri ‘Ironheart’
Williams. In SW, ‘The Mandalorian’ did not quite work as how Disney thought it
would work, and in Marvel, the same thing can be said about Zombies: they
probably will not work as to how Disney wanted them to work. Riri Williams is still
disliked by the fans.
Unlike ‘The Mandalorian’, of course, the Marvel fans
can easily dismiss Marvel™ Zombies – they are not part of MCU, but an alternate
universe, not unlike the 2025-F4 film. In this case, of course, not unlike the
AAA series (remember Aggie-poo?) Marvel™ Zombies become just a waste of Disney/Marvel
time and resources that would be better used in other means. Ah well, Disney –
in all of its’ branches and affiliations always did have more money than common
sense… Real life is still worse – just look at the Philippines and their
earthquake… Oh, wait, they were overlooked in favor of the Donald’s latest rant
– but that is another story…
For now, though, this is it – see you all soon!
