Marvel movies are basically 80% VFX at this point, they definitely deserve a much bigger cut

just in time for tentpole superhero films to flop, I guess. I wish they’d had this power 10 years ago tbf, but the second best time to plant a tree is now

Next headline: Disney fires entire special effects team. Says they are just re-organizing.

This is sadly very likely. They'll blame declining profits and this team will be the first on the chopping block.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Marvel just stops making movies, they are already on the way down.

They will never stop making movies, although I think switching to making shows could be a good idea if they figure out the format properly (they're close)
