I'm guessing half the reason it's a goddam Herculean task to make a decent comic book movie is because of that fact. The medium of visual figure art + scene + the need for movement & characterization, world-building... It's *a lot* of goddam work just making a comic book. Translating all of it over to film is impossible enough, but considering time constraints, _reality_ constraints, the restrictions of budgets... problems with portraying the impossible just add up the more you think about it. I'm a comic book fan first & an MCU fan second, but it's a very distant second. I can't go from reading _Age of Ultron_ to watching the movie & not feel robbed. Not just because there are things in the comics that are impossible to do even with CGI but because the whole damn story is different 😆 they couldn't make the original story into a movie because the prerequisites include characters that haven't even appeared in the MCU yet. In short it's damn near impossible to "do" comic book movies, but what the MCU gives us is a reason to appreciate the comics that much more 😎

Yep. I am a **amateur** artist and like... looking at Endgame's color palette is saddening lol. You know those "bright night" kind of movie effects, where in the movie it's supposed to be nighttime, but the actors were filming during the day..? So in post, they just.. slap a dark blue filter on it and call it a day. Somehow Endgame looks worse than that, because they slapped a desaturation on it and also increased the shadows. Severely muddied. Do you know how beautiful these shots could have been?? They could have been so crisp, and so bright(not too bright) and balanced... instead they went with *this* for "grit" factor. Saddening, really. Edit: I'd like to add this entirely because of later comments from chat lol. The values of Endgame are all the same. Movies like Blade Runner have different values despite being nearly monochrome.

Surely fans would want there to _also_ be improvements to something you guys already like, yeah? I just want color in my fucking movies, and you can use darkness in scenes to contrast them for emotional beats. It's useful. Besides, the real world actually _does_ have a lot of color, it's not unrealistic to have more than a grey-brown color palette with heavy lighting. And if a movie is going to be primarily CGI, I'd want there to be a really strong art direction that makes its visuals timeless even as technology continues.

Most of my problem with the modern MCU cinematography is more so the busyness of the frame, everything feels like sensory overload. In Blade Runner there is a wonderful balance of empty simplistic frames, and overpacked crowded cities. It seems like a lot of the modern blockbusters have less contrast, as if everything must be perfectly exposed at all times, but by not allowing pure white and black tones sometimes it feels very washed out, and makes it harder to make certain shots stand out.

I believe the word Vaush is looking for is contrast. Having decent contrast, and placing the main areas of high contrast well, results in a good image. The "mud" appears to be a lack of variation in the Luma axis (light to dark) in the important part of the shots. Some shots look underexposed even in the highlights as well. At times it almost looks like they didn't color correct the footage (usually footage is recorded on low contrast settings to increase dynamic range and then sliders are fiddled with in post to bring it back to normal) Color isn't necessary for a good composition (black and white films can look perfectly un-muddy) as long as you nail Luma contrast.

Well yeah, it's a cinematographic representation of a fictional future. I'm so sick and tired of people having this attitude (to films and videogames) that the metric for 'good' is 'how realistic does it look'? I don't need my fantasy and sci-fi films to look REALISTIC. They aren't realistic. I want them to look appealing. I want them to fit the tone of the story. I love visual storytelling, and good use of colour and control of the vibrancy does a lot to impact emotion. Ironically, even the real world is more colourful and interesting than a lot of these 'realistic' films. It reminds me of when the Christian Bale Batman series first started, and the buzzwords ''dark and gritty'' took off.

All I’m going to say is that some Marvel movies are far better than others. Endgame was a muddy, fan-servicey mess. Thor: Ragnarok and Guardians of the Galaxy (1 and 2) are beautiful and very well done. I’d also go further to say that Infinity war is also one of the best. It doesn’t fear color and all of the battles are easy to follow (with the exception of the first half of the Wakanda battle madness).

I was surprised how much I enjoyed Infinity War despite not watching like 80% of marvel movies, and how disappointing Endgame was.

Marvel Movies are generally just "meh" at best. They are super samey. It feels like a waste of time to watch them compared to something else. Everyone sh"ts on live-action DC but I am much more excited for more of DC's upcoming works than Marvel's. Birds of Prey is the best film I have ever seen to analyze from a feminist perspective. Shazam is fun romp that isn't like anything else on the market. Aquaman feels like a Marvel Movie but good. Suicide Squad 2 has motherf"cking King Shark and is being made by the guy who made the best Marvel film (Guardians of the Galaxy.) And they just seem to have more freedom and are taking their movies in different directions. Even Venom is more enjoyable and exciting than Marvel movies and that is a Sony production.

Also Vaush's complaints about the time travel not making sense were just really dumb. He asked why they couldn't just send more people back to the same point in time to try again if they failed at something, but the time travel in the MCU is explicitly stated to work on the multiverse concept, changing something on the last doesn't change your timeline it just creates a new different timeline and preventing the creation of new timelines is literal what the the TVA is trying to do.

@@robrotron2084 True, that was a bit frustrating to see, especially knowing how in depth the show goes into explaining all that. At least as in depth as you can go without losing be viewer. Time travel stories will always require a certain suspension of disbelief to make them work, so as long as the viewer can get past the premise and rules of the universe, they can enjoy the story for what it is. In the case of Loki, the time travel and alternate timeline elements are used as a means of breaking down his character and forcing him to reflect and grow in ways that haven’t been explored before, but also wouldn’t be possible without the context of time travel. It’s a balancing act not many stories can pull off, but I was pleasantly surprised at just how well Loki did it.

@@haruhirogrimgar6047 That’s really interesting, because I interpreted the visual style as a creative choice that was complimentary to the themes and the story. The idea of Loki, a larger than life character and literal God, being brought down to earth in a way and being forced to fall in line by getting a job working for the boring and bureaucratic TVA is a fun and interesting idea in and of itself I think. It’s only fitting that the cinematography represents the mundane reality of such a powerful cosmic force. Plus, I found that the most memorable and interesting scenes were those which simply focused on conversations between two characters. The most powerful special effect a filmmaker has at their disposal is actors simply acting. I think the restraint shown throughout the show to not go way over the top with effects or camera work or anything else and just letting the actors deliver dynamic performances to be such a delightful and refreshing treat in the MCU. The difference in opinions I’ve seen regarding Loki has been really cool to see, because it means people are really thinking about and responding to the media they’re consuming. Whether or not that’s a positive or negative response is what makes it fun. I really enjoyed the show not just because I had fun watching it, but because it was captivating and it stuck with me after each episode. I didn’t lose interest and it kept me thinking, which I think is one of the most impressive things a piece of media can do.

I think the underlying problem with why comments like this annoy me so much is that I associate this kind of negativity with mopey teenagers.

Somebody new I met likes Anime, I really haven't watched any and don't feel any urge to, but I'm glad they like Anime in the same way that I hope they would see my interests as a positive. Ultimately I will respect these people much more than I do somebody who deep dives on pointless (in the big picture) nitpicks because .. I donno, they maybe haven't grown out of the mode of thought that hating things is what cool people do. Want to moan about a colour palette that objectively isn't as flawless as Blade Runner 2049 but still pretty good? Sure, go for it. But how many other films reach the level of stylistic perfection that 2049 achieved? Very few if any. So the only real argument here is "Why isn't this film as stylish as the most stylistically complete film ever released?" ... It just seems needlessly negative .. at what point are we just ranting at nothing, you know?

My theory is that it's because marvel writers are so afraid of sincerity unless it's part of a big event (the endgame deaths) or to move the plot along (that lady Steve liked). They're so concerned with keeping keeping characters static to not alienate fans that I think it comes out in the overall aesthetic. So many scenes that would played straight in other films are undercut by snarky remarks because marvel writers usually refuse to step out of their grey, generic safety until the plot is given to people chosen specifically because they'll add in some spice.

Well no it wasn't just locked down scenes in bladerunner the explosion for example has motion but can pause with good but simple detail keeping it crisp by doing so. Sometimes less detail more simple crisp colours and silhouettes can make it easier to get good image throughout action. A lot of avengers need to cram as many heros into the background to appease fans at the expense of clarity and showing only pertinent info. I think background becomes more important if your scanning the background for your fav hero. I think for that reason the idea of having all the heros at once only works witg comics. Even then the comics that bring everyone toghether is a mess because nobody gets enough time or detail. Its almost a functional problem that comes with the concept of such a divided focus.

Take a shot every time Vaush says muddy. This is good criticism but I really wished you'd use the word "contrast" more instead of "muddy". Or explained the meaning of the word for the average viewer. (Maybe that got clipped out, my bad.) Muddy, colors that are similar in value/contrast. A muddy color palette will result in things looking "flat" or "muddy", aka not have enough contrast therefore everything blends together and is hard to tell apart. A limited color palette always runs the risk of falling into muddy since the colors are already similar, and therefore high contrast is even more important. In art, it's absolutely okay to break rules and go against what's considered "objectively good art" IF you understand why those rules exist and are meaningfully breaking them not just accidentally breaking them. And yes, art has no rules. If you hold really strongly to that option without exception then it's best to just avoid discussions about art criticism and visual language. Art theory helps us discover more ways to convey our ideas, not everyone needs or enjoys that but some of us do.

@@TheShicksinator What could HDR do the footage, exactly? The file would have to be uncompressed for pretty much any information to be retreived from really dark footage. Even extremely high file sizes will still lose fidelity when the scene is dark as shit.

wondering vaush's opinions on the guardians of the galaxy movies. They're still made by commitee I reckon, but those seem to have made a lot more bold visual choices that I really liked, especially the second one.

The only color palletes I apreciate from Marvel are some few scenes from infinity war, Thor Ragnarok and the great movie Queen ...Guardians of the Galaxy vol2

Because getting lighting on GCI characters (Hulk) and real life actors in the same shot is damn near impossible. It's easier to make the lighting washed so the shading and shadow effects look more consistent. Take the lighting used in Avengers (2012) and how the Hulk looked in the battle of New York, the shadows are basically non-existent and even age of Ultron had this issue. Infinity war and Endgame has way better lighting IMO. Not perfect, but an improvement by the studio for sure. Unless you want these movies to take 10 years at a time, I don't think it's gonna get much better than that.. lol

I feel like this video shows the need for better artists in the post-production part of these future MCU projects, and I’m confident Kevin Feige will hear some criticism and work to be better.

The MCU is not going to get better. Recent showings have all been trash! It's just going to get worse from here.
