Star Wars, as the 8th installment of that franchise much like this one shattered the trust of many fans and the people in charge of the franchise. Hell, both Gen 8 and Episode 8 have a large pushback of shills brainlessly defending the game as well and reeing at the fact that it made money.

And both have had someone at the top devise a way that the mainline product absolutely cannot be salvaged without walking back literally everything the eighth installment did.

Zelda. We're at the "Wind Waker" part of the franchise, where the games get even easier, full of more unskippable cutscenes and dialog, the "open world" is a joke since the game's still linear, there's no challenge, and no content.

Unfortunately, it sells enough for the director to stay the course and stays that way for the better part of two decades. You'll get your Pokemon Breath of the Wild, bros, but you have to wait another 15 years.

Marvel. I can enjoy a bad Pokemon game. I can tolerate just about all MCU movies.

TLJ was offensively bad to the point that I felt angered by the actual content inside it.

Dont see the issue with MCU myself and I'm not a hardcore StarWars fan so I feel nothing one way or the other.

If theres anything Disney I'd compare Pokemon to it's those fucking live action remakes.

Pandering to nostalgia and having soulless animations too. Also feels like they're making them out of some obligation instead of it being a thing they want to do.

Because 23 fucking movies were mass produced in a decade like a factory line. They gotten so soulless and formulaic that when a well-written film like Joker came out, it makes you realize how shitty the mcu actually is. Sucking out all the enjoyment of superhero movies use to elicit. A genre that's been stripmined to the point where you actually say "not another superhero movie" when they announce Thor #27. Worst still is that DC is trying to copy Marvel by pumping out endless movies as well. Gone are the days of good superhero movies like Nolan's Dark Knight or Raimi's Spider-Man 2. And the bi-yearly mcu movies' bad writing is mostly to blame for the current state of affairs.

Joker is not well-written either. If you're going to bother to criticize populist drivel like the Marvel movies, at least watch a real class drama like Parasite please

Star Wars if we're only talking currently - completely derailed from what made the original fans love them to mindlessly push a series of recognizable images on the nu-generation consumerfags

MCU if we're talking overall - Entries range from strong to pathetic, but never quite offensively bad, but after all this time the cracks are starting to show in the armor.

For Star Wars, it's some of the games, and the CGI Clone Wars and Rebels shows.

Except CGI Clone Wars (TCW) and Rebels hurt the canon than help it. You can enjoy them all you want, but when TCW was released and the EU was still a thing, it burned through the entire continuity like a wildfire leaving no survivors. Now if you want to make an argument, it's the older games by LucasArts, the EU novels, and Clone Wars 03, as even the current SW video games are subpar messes at best.

Star Wars. Originally made as a small fun little project, but became absurdly popular leading to them making more and more content, culminating in them making a new major installment every single year. Got a big upsurge in popularity in the mid 2010s, but with that a distinct decline in quality.

But it was well-written. Gotham is a shitty... well, the shittiEST place to live in. Now imagine being unfortunate enough to be the unlucky citizen that had to suffer the worst abuses and vices from this vile city. A concept from the comics is that "it just takes One bad day to become the Joker". But that's not very realistic. Instead, the film makes Every day of Arthur's life a bad day. The constant bad luck that Arthur had in this unforgiving city finally gives us a damn good origin story for the Joker that's relatable. And the film's execution wouldn't have been possible without Joaquin Phoenix's masterful performance.

The sad thing is Pokemon has less effort put into it than both of these franchises. I mean, you can hate Disney all you want, but they’re not shy when it comes to flaunting their money around. Both these franchises have high production values, even the shitty writing of these franchises is better than Pokemon’s sorry attempt at a plot.
