There was no greater point.

Gamefaqs is social media

They do resonate with adults, though. Because of nostalgia for many. These are stories based off of comics, tv shows, cartoons, movies, etc. from when they were younger. So, like you said, subjective. But many adults go to see them. And its a hot topic around many workplaces

Fair enough. It frustrates me how much it dominates the film and entertainment industry, but it wouldn't be successful if they weren't appealing to a massive amount of people

Yeah, why can't Marvel movies deal with adult themes like working a pizza delivery job and struggling to pay rent? Ugh.

That sounds terrible for a single sequence. Why would there be different levels of sentinels instead of mass producing the strongest one? It's also too convenient that every "upgrade" they encounter just happens to counter their previous tactic when they were produced before the battle. Such a thing could work over time (see: The Incredibles) but doesn't stand up to scrutiny all at once.

Such a format might work better with a villain that can evolve during a fight (ex DC's Doomsday), but even then you can only stretch it so far before you're out of material, and the further you stretch it the harder it is to realize a victory for the heroes. Doomsday's comic defeat was the epitomy of anticlimatic.

I agree. Scarcity and capitalism are the real villains

The reasons for different levels of sentinels can be many. From already having the weaker ones, to the stronger one taking a lot of materials that are limited. Or different ones that are made for certain specialties And maybe it is convenient, but its also a movie. So many things happen in movies thats convenient. So, its just regular movie stuff. Or maybe they know the weaknesses of the old ones, and the newer ones dont have the same weaknesses

these movies care little about telling a story that resonates with adults

Weird because me and all my friends are adults who have loved these movies and even teared up from time to time

Yeah I'd watch anything superhero when it comes to films in most cases.
