Ironheart Called 'Worst Thing Ever Made' by People Inside Marvel - "We get more insider info regarding Marvel, this time about Ironheart via Nerdrotic, who recently confirmed Jon Bernthal would be starring in Spider-Man 4, which was recently announced by the trades. Nerdrotic on X says the Marvel series went through nearly a dozen re-edits and sat on the shelf for over two and a half years (Anthony Ramos has also confirmed they filmed three years ago). Nerdrotic adds that people inside Marvel consider Ironheart “the worst thing they have ever made.” “Ironheart went through almost a dozen re-edits and sat on the shelf for 2 1/2 years,” tweeted the YouTuber. “People within Marvel consider it the worst thing they have ever made.” This follows the news of the poor ratings where it’s looks likely Ironheart has already been canceled and won’t be getting a Season 2. Ironheart also now holds the lowest Rotten Tomatoes audience score of any MCU Disney+ show."

Ironheart Controversy Explodes: Low Scores, Backlash, And Accusations—What’s Really Happening? - "Marvel Studios is once again at the center of a cultural firestorm, this time surrounding Ironheart, the much-anticipated Disney+ series that debuted to underwhelming reactions and a shockingly low 32% score on Rotten Tomatoes—the second-worst in MCU streaming history. But this isn’t just about reviews. The conversation has quickly shifted from critical analysis to cultural accusations, with some claiming that any criticism of Ironheart is rooted in racism, while others argue it’s simply about quality and storytelling. The Internet is ablaze with conflicting reactions, meme wars, and ideological crossfire... The consensus so far points to a lack of coherent storytelling and a directionless plot, not necessarily a problem with the lead character herself... Marvel may have prioritized symbolic importance over organic storytelling—a gamble that hasn’t paid off, at least not yet... Several prominent content creators, including Grummz, have openly mocked the show, noting that even people who don’t like the show are being told it’s their fault for not liking it... This mirrors patterns seen with The Acolyte and She-Hulk, where negative audience feedback was reframed as politically motivated, often by legacy entertainment media."
Marvel's Ironheart Reactions Are In: But You're Racist If You Don't Like It - "What’s pretty funny about some of the reactions to Ironheart is that while they say the show isn’t good, they still blame fans. It’s hilarious."
In Ironheart (2025), Riri Williams is complaining "Tony Stark had billions while creating Iron man"; because being kidnapped by terrorists and only staying alive due to a magnet and in a cave with a box of scraps was more difficult than working in a well funded laboratory. : r/shittymoviedetails - "Iron man is an iconic character by now. Legendary to say the least. Dissing on him to make a new character look better is demeaning and will never ever go down well with fans. Marvel seriously doesn't get how to build characters anymore."
"This way the character just seems arrogant and petty tbf it is comic accurate for once."
"Was just about to say the same thing, this is ironically one of their most accurate live action portrayals of a comic book character. This character has always been garbage and poorly written, it’s now just plain to see for everyone on the tv screen.
claims to be too smart for uni but somehow finds it impossible to do the bare minimum so she can pass and also do her own projects in her spare time, meanwhile Tony Stark was a terrorist hostage and managed to discover an entirely new energy source"

gripe towards the new ironheart trailer from a chemistry student : r/KotakuInAction - "I have never commented on this sub, but I really feel the need to say something after seeing the ironheart trailer. ( https://youtu.be/WpW36ldAqnM?si=M4sLFwufMeABXqu9 ) So here I am, using a throwaway account to voice my opinions about this show as a gay Chinese boy that works in the academia. The whole 'genius persona' of this character is EXTREMELY condescending to me. Firstly, her desire for recognition and praise is just so annoying. She is a 15 year old in MIT, something that countless students here can only dream of. Only extremely rich kids here in China can think about attending undergrad in US right away. Plus, she is only an undergrad, so how much recognition does she want? (PS: I also hated the spiderman 3’s plot of the trio griping over not getting into MIT, for how out of touch writers are) Secondly, in this trailer, she wants funding from her teacher, and accepts stolen money when she cannot get support. To me this is LAUGHABLE. Guess what, Riri? Even PhD students don't get to decide the use of their PI's funding. They frequently have to listen to what their PI wants (and paid them for). Lastly, their notion that those who achieve greatness have to commit sins (i.e. rob banks) is also incredibly funny to me. The real problem in the academia is elitism and red tape (especially here). Scientists who work hard endlessly don't often get the title and awards. Instead, you have to know the right people and get the right opportunities. If this villain really wants Riri to game the system, he would advise Riri to go to events with the Stark industry or those higher ups in Wakanda. Instead, he and Riri resort to the stereotypical solution of robbery. All in all, ironheart shows marvel’s complete lack of understanding towards how the academia works. If Riri really wants to be a robotic or AI scientist, I doubt her ‘talents’ can carry her far."

There’s An Obvious Reason Why ‘Fantastic Four: First Steps’ Collapsed At The Box Office - "Fantastic Four: First Steps seemed, at first, to be a rebound for Marvel. Positive reviews and audience reception fueled a strong opening weekend, though it fell short of DC’s Superman, which released just two weeks earlier. The film’s second weekend, however, was disastrous, plummeting 66% from $117.6 million to just $40 million, a significantly steeper decline than analysts predicted (55 to 60%)... the decline Fantastic Four saw week-over-week cannot be pinned entirely on consumer behavior. Superman opened with a $125 million weekend and only dropped 53% the following weekend. Both movies had strong reviews and word-of-mouth. Both had A- Cinemascores. Critics mostly praised them. So why would Fantastic Four have a much steeper decline than Superman?... The truth is, people are not burnt out on superhero movies. Quite the opposite. People are so hungry for good superhero movies that they’re gushing about films that are okay at best. Superman was a hot mess of a movie, but fans and critics alike raved about it. And I’ll admit, despite all its flaws, I think it was a more enjoyable movie than Fantastic Four. People raved about that one, too, but aside from the cool retrofuturistic aesthetic, it’s mostly just incredibly dull with a lackluster ending. People are so desperate for good superhero movies, they’ve convinced themselves that these qualify. But bad movies often do well at the box office (Aquaman $335 million domestically and over $1.1 billion globally) and good movies often do bad (Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves $93.9 million domestically and $208.2 million globally) so even looking just at quality can’t always explain a film’s poor showing... It’s more damning, ultimately, that Captain America did so poorly. Captain America ought to be a major hit for Marvel at this point, but Brave New World was a confusing mess and very few people are particularly excited about Anthony Mackie’s Sam Wilson taking on the role of Captain America, while Bucky (Sebastian Stan) – a more sensible choice given his old friendship with Steve Rogers – is tucked away in Thunderbolts*. The problem with superhero movies these days is that the people who make them are out of touch with the people who watch them. They have forgotten who the target audience is, and why moviegoers head to the movies in the first place. To his credit, James Gunn was right to go with a popular DC hero like Superman for his DCU reboot (and smart to choose mostly less-expensive stars to fill the roles, because budgets are absolutely out of control). He just happened to also write one of his worst scripts for the film."

X-Men: Feige Battling Disney Over Action Vs Social Commentary - "The X-Men movie currently in development following Avengers: Secret Wars is rumored to be having problems, where Kevin Feige is butting heads with Disney CEO Bob Iger over the direction of the movie... Kevin Feige originally planned a grounded, socially-driven X-Men film centered on mutant identity and conflict with the Brotherhood of Mutants. However, Disney executives, reacting to recent box office disappointments of Thunderbolts and Captain America: Brave New World (Disney recently named Cap 4 as a fail in its investor report), pushed for a more action-heavy, spectacle-focused script aimed at mass appeal. It’s claimed the final version of the X-Men movie will prioritize blockbuster elements and fan service, with less emphasis on ideological themes... Worth a mention is that the two big movies post-Endgame from Feige and Disney/Marvel that have been a success are Deadpool & Wolverine and Spider-Man: No Way Home, with everything else, including the MCU shows on Disney+ a massive bust."
'Thunderbolts*' Reportedly Lost Marvel Studios Millions Despite 'Avengers' MCU Tie-in - "Back when Thunderbolts* opened in May to kick off the summer movie season, its stellar reviews and $74 million opening weekend were touted as a win, as it rightfully should've been. The MCU needed a win following some misfires, save Deadpool & Wolverine, which either received mixed reviews on a critical level or underperformed at the box office. As the Thunderbolts* headed into its second weekend, they were being dubbed The New Avengers, and it felt like the celebration would never end. However, in the weeks after its opening, it was clear that, despite the warm reception, Thunderbolts* didn't have the legs of the better MCU films, and now it's becoming a bit clearer what Marvel has lost on the project. Per Variety, Marvel Studios has reportedly lost millions of dollars on Thunderbolts* due to a box office run that is pretty much coming to a close with a worldwide total of $371 million. Reports indicate that the film, due to its $180 million production budget and $100 million marketing spend, needed to make about $425 million to break even. As it stands, Thunderbolts* is one of the lowest-grossing MCU titles to date on a global scale. As Exhibitor Relations analyst Jeff Block put it, "These lower-tier comic book movies aren't cinematic slam dunks anymore. Thunderbolts* wrapping up after just a month in theaters, is also a concern. These films aren't legging out like previous iterations." A lot can be said about why Thunderbolts* underachieved at the box office. Some believe it's because it involves lesser-known characters, but that didn't prevent the first Guardians of the Galaxy from turning into a huge financial hit. The main culprit here could be placed on quality, but not on the quality of Thunderbolts*, which is a stellar MCU effort and some of their best output recently. The film followed Captain America: Brave New World, which currently sits with a 47% score on Rotten Tomatoes. Even though that film pulled in $415.1 million, it fell short of breaking even theatrically (reportedly needing a similar global take of $425 million to do so), and the fan response was more mixed"
When you've tanked your brand with woke shit and other shit
Disney Officially Confirms Marvel's Thunderbolts A Bust - "In its latest investor report, Disney cited Thunderbolts ($382.4 million box office) and Pixar’s Elio ($144.2M) as key reasons for a $21 million operating loss in its Content Sales/Licensing division — a steep drop from the $254 million gain it reported during the same quarter last year... The investor report mentioned “higher film cost impairments” for the quarter, which is corporate-speak for admitting that at least one of the films, either Thunderbolts and/or Elio, is expected to lose money (Disney doesn’t specifically name which one). In accounting terms, that means Disney doesn’t believe the movie will make back its production and marketing budget through box office, streaming, or licensing (Thunderbolts budget was reportedly $180M, with Elio potentially more than $200M). So instead of pretending the film is still worth what they spent, they take a write-down, officially recording the loss now. It’s a clear sign Disney already sees Thunderbolts and/or Elio as a long-term failure. During Disney’s quarterly earnings call, CEO Bob Iger and CFO Hugh Johnston also highlighted the company’s film successes, but Thunderbolts wasn’t one of them. In fact, despite being released during the same quarter, Thunderbolts wasn’t mentioned once, while they praised Lilo & Stitch as a billion-dollar hit and called out other strong performers like Moana 2, Inside Out 2, and Deadpool & Wolverine. The omission is telling. Disney used the call to build a narrative around renewed studio momentum and “long-term value,” and left Thunderbolts out entirely. "
So much for all the cope
It's Official: Thunderbolts Is A Massive Bomb: New Avengers Fails To Assemble - "Disney recently named Cap 4 in its investor report as a big loss, so expect the same for Thunderbolts. New Avengers bombing also follows Bob Iger desperately trying to sell the movie prior to its release when he said the flick was the “first and best” example of Marvel’s new movie strategy. Well, how’d that work out? It’s reported that the Thunderbolts budget was kept low for a Marvel movie, said to be $180 million instead of $200M+, but we see that didn’t matter, and the film still failed to deliver. It’s the second-worst performing MCU movie, only better than The Marvels. Now that hurts. Regarding the trades, when they stop shilling and start reporting the truth, that’s when you know things are really bad... Disney, Marvel, and the shill sites continue to spin things that too much content is to blame. The real reason for the blame is not too much content; it’s the fact that they chose to serve up the agenda instead of telling a quality story... Thunderbolts also followed the massive failure of The Marvels, where the fans sent Feige a message of their own: we don’t want it. Instead of giving fans what they want, Feige not only doubled down, but has tripled down, as up next is Fantastic Four, which is another female-driven movie. The shills also can’t blame the fanboys, as they make up a majority of the audience. It’s the women who don’t care. Variety hints there may be truth to the rumors of a behind-the-scenes clash between Kevin Feige and Bob Iger. According to the report, Marvel appears to be shifting away from lesser-known characters and refocusing on major blockbusters, like Spider-Man, Deadpool, and Avengers-level events. Meanwhile, rumors say that Feige wants the upcoming X-Men reboot to lean into social commentary, while Iger is pushing for more mainstream, action-driven spectacle that’s a proven success."
Will the Marvel shills continue claiming that Brave New World was a huge success?
