ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
After the massive success of Spider-Man and X-Men, Hollywood flooded theaters with superhero movies like Daredevil, Hulk, Fantastic Four, Catwoman, Elektra, The Punisher and Superman Returns, but many failed to launch successful franchises. From turning Galactus into a giant cloud and sewing Deadpool's mouth shut in X-Men Origins: Wolverine to reinventing Doctor Doom as a corporate businessman, giving Catwoman supernatural powers and turning Ang Lee's Hulk into a psychological drama, we explore the bizarre creative decisions that plagued early 2000s Marvel and DC movies. We also examine how Hollywood's reluctance to embrace comic book source material, scattered film rights and lack of creative oversight eventually led to Kevin Feige's Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and changed superhero movies forever.
