MARVEL: POSITIVE (Part 1 of 2)

- When a franchise contains the highest grossing film of all time, it's worth exploring how that happened. There's a lot of discourse surrounding the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but its success was not accidental. In this video, I look at the rough patches of adapting Marvel comics, and how the MCU got to be so popular.
Also, this is my first video essay in 1080p, so enjoy the extra pixels.

I just watched this again to prepare properly for NEGATIVE!!
How to use Marvel Music in videos?
Btw Loved the video!!!
The editing is exceptional 😍😍😍
Do you mind If I use that joke you used? (What did I tell you about using the bell for comedic purposes?)

"It's easy to self destruct when things aren't working out, but it's hard to sacrifice yourself when you have everything you've ever wanted"
That is a great quote, really stuck with me
It's beautiful, I love it.
yes
"but it's hard to sacrifice yourself when you have everything you've ever wanted"
What does that even mean?
I would just tack on the rest of it: "In that sense, being Iron Man ISN'T literal, it's something all of us can do." That, together with the preceding, really made this quote, for me. An AMAZINGLY apt insight, really. Thanks for putting it out there for us!
@@kamalekermawi Tony Stark had his daughter, had a healthy romantic relationship with the only woman he's ever loved, had his giant plot of land to live out life exactly as he wanted after being a billionaire playboy, along with any technology he will ever want or need, and got his life back together 5 years after Thanos' snap.
His decision to sacrifice himself in order to time travel and undo the snap to save everyone else, even though he had everything he needed already, was a hard decision.
Now if he had nothing, his wife and daughter were snapped away, and he was homeless, sacrificing himself for the good of others would be a very easy decision.
Get it?
"If the public creates popularity, then the fans create legacy." Good line.
Really appreciate this video. I enjoy indie cinema, smaller-budget films, experimental movies, that sort of thing, but the MCU movies have always tugged at my heartstrings. I truly believe there to be an attempt at genuine, heartfelt filmmaking in each of these movies, especially through the Iron Man/Captain America movies and their interactions with one another.
As a film fanatic and passionate storyteller, I think MCU tries to be... you know, cinema. It tries to be those heartfelt realistic grounded films that puts a good impact on you. Some of them succeeded. While some of them didn’t. But at the end they tried, and they are new trying in their tv shows. Besides entertaining us. They failed at telling genuine human stories at times, but I don’t think they ever failed to entertain us.
"And above all Tales to Astonish."
I understood that reference.
I understood “that” reference
Not only that, its like a Journey into Mystery.
This is great! And I don’t want to watch Marvel: Negative but I’ll torture myself anyway 😀
It's good to see someone capable of understanding both perspectives on Marvel. Marvelous video my friend.
"So what is Kevin doing right?"
*Marvel Fortnight Ad plays*
I’ve been needing some positivity about this franchise. Well timed.
ikr?!
i know it's silly but the constant dunk on marvel really bums me up
but the truth is none of that would change the fact that marvel studios will keep making movies and even expanding to television now which hopefully manage to maintain the same level of quality
What do u mean?
@@pississippian I don't bro, but I get ur point. That said 23 is a flippin' lotta Super Powered Celluloid to get thru. I think after End Game, I'm gonna need a li'l lie down. Cj.
Because the internet is full of hateful s***heads?
The MCU is the highest-grossing film franchise of all time. What more do you want?
The "I'm an actor" part was one of my favourite scenes from iron man 3. Especially when rhodey shows up
The actual reason they parodied The Mandarin instead of making him an actual villain is actually to to the Chinese Government. The Chinese Government did not want the people of China seeing a Chinese villain portrayed in the movie, and said if Marvel were to do this, they would not whitelist the movie in their country, which would have lost Marvel a lot of money. This is also the same reason why Dr.Strange's "mentor" ( I'm not familiar with her name at the moment ) is how she is. The original "mentor" was actually from Tibet, and since China does not acknowledge Tibet's independence, they don't want it to ever be mentioned in movies. China only allow a max of I believe 32 US movies per year. If you get on that list, you'll be earning A LOT more money. That's why Hollywood listens to China and their rhetoric.
Another great video, man. I love that even the topics that are talked about to death are still made interesting with your commentary.
I don't even like the MCU, but I still found this interesting.
You're hands down one of my favorite channels. Your understanding of subjects and how you break them down is astounding. Thank you , Jesse.
the music score at the end of infinity war when thanos gets home is legendary. love how you rounded this video off with it
I surely hope part two won't be Marvel: Negative
*gasp* no
Adina McCray Oops lol
@@JesseTribble yeaahhh babbyy
Adina McCray OOF
Marvel: Negative - Gwyneth Paltrow as Rescue. CRINGE.
There are things in this world that make me mad and there are things in this world that make me sad.
But Avi Arad's cadence makes me feel a type of emotion that I cannot handle
i loved how after 25 min' explaining, extensively, and most accurately in a great simple yet analytical way what makes this franchise so successful you say : "i'm not sure what makes a franchise successful"
:) priceless.
As someone who is not the biggest MCU fan, I still can acknowledge the genius of the MCU. They understand why people who are comic book fans read comics. It's not just the fights and larger than life characters with world ending plots. It's that these larger than life characters also have relatable desires and traits. Tony is a selfish playboy who desperately wants to be a hero. And of the course of the films, he does. Captain America is not a hero because he took a super serum and now can throw a shield real good. He's a guy who will always try to do the right thing, even in a world he isn't sure what the right thing is. These characters are interesting not because of their superpowers but because of their motivations.
Man, this was excellent. Downright professional.
Immediately one of my favorite MCU video essays. Great analysis. Great work.
Hands down, this is the best Marvel analysis I've ever seen, and I've watched a lot of them. This is not simply a "DC-Marvel comparison" or "how good is Marvel", but a very nice video analysis. The amount of work you put into this is obvious, from the attentions to detail to the perfect editing (with HD quality and not too much annoying bg music). I've learned a lot from this and it's also a great motivational vid to show us what it takes to be successful. Thank you!
Hey, I keep going back to watch your video (especially this one)! I love how you keep referencing all the information from real facts & you credit it in the screen. I’m really enjoying this & how it wasn’t all easy to make them.
Can you do it with ‘The Dark Knight’ trilogy please!!!! I would love to see it!! Thank you for making this (must’ve been quite a research)!
Your editing and commentary blend perfectly. Keep it up.
I love that the choir sings the song that plays during lokis actual death scene
Great video. I can't imagine the amount of editing and searching and research that went into this but it's an amazing look at the Marvel Universe and even DC Comics.
I absolutely adore these movies , they're are my childhood and my life and I forever will be grateful that they exist, the fact that they did make the characters stereotypical archetypes and then TOOK THE TIME to slowly break those down and create character growth throughout the movies is just amazing
8 mins in and I'm really appreciating all of this.
Also I'm so pumped you included the Mandarin one-shot. This thorough research has me giddy.
Gonna get some popcorn and watch this! Thanks for the brilliant videos Jesse
This is great! And I don’t want to watch Marvel: Negative but I’ll torture myself anyway 😀
Amazing analysis! Wonderful synthesis of all the stories, themes, and styles. I had not thought about the historical success DC compared to the recent lackluster films. Kind of amazing that Marvel has been able to bring together so many stories, characters, and cinematic language while DC has struggled. Thanks for another great video. I'm looking forward to part 2!
Why do I STILL get emotional watching videos like this?
The Incredible Hulk is one of my favourite shows of my childhood I grew up watching re runs of that
"Is that it? is that all you got?" Tim Roth is fantastic to watch in that film
@@brayancatano136 They're talking about the tv show from the 70s.
“Tales to Astonish”
Yes I now like your channel
I’m so high rn and I’m in love with ur videos and I’m on a binge
Bro I literally looked ur channel up to see when u lasted posted like yesterday, and it was like months. Literally the next day you post that’s funny
I'm so glad that DS is high on your list of favorite MCU films. It's one of my favorites too, and the Ancient One is one of my favorite heroes
man you are so god damn good at this. great work
Great job, as usual! Can you make a video analyzing the Ghibli's or Miyazaki's movies?
Great video! I thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of it; your analysis, the viewpoint, the depth and length of your critique and conclusion, and most importantly your voice and the way you speak to your audience. This video is many levels above the usual MCU videos made by fanboys or haters. I hope too see many more of your videos, keep up the good work man!
22:50, nah time travel is a nightmare it can never be done with consistency and udnermine everything that happened, they can always change whats happened.
5:10 loved this superstore reference!
Fantastic video. You're my favorite film-related youtube channel.
Only subscribed recently... really glad I did. Keep 'em coming!
I swear great vid and at the end as soon as the farm song for thanos just plays over all the best aspects of the films I love it.
Why doesn't this man have at least 10 million subscribers. He deserves it
Those transitions were so smooth I got chills every time
god this is one of the best marvel themed videos i've seen for awhile and now i'm afraid to see the second part, especially seeing that runtime
This is so well done! I hope it blows up.
Amazing work like always, will you do an essay vid on the new watchmen series when it ends? I'm loving it so far and the boys was amazing too
Finally!!! It was worth the wait for sure and can't wait for part 2, bring on the counterbalance cause nothing's perfect, right?
Great job and congrats on the new upgrades, adds the professionalism your content has deserved for a long time!
think i migh have just found my favorite film creator that joke you did with ur mums favorite superhero and the bell from spiderman was great and your voice literally cures all headaches great stuff man
The second part is literally double the time of this video and that scares me
Perfectly unbalanced. As it is
This channel is the most consistently amazing channel on UA-cam.
That cut to the Ancient One. *Chef's kiss*
Overall Great Video Essay! One of my favorites and view others Videos or Video Essays about the start and the Success of the Marvel Cinematic Universe! I’ve been a fan of the Avengers since 1989, it seems like I’ve given my fan card away to a future generation of youth, but reflecting back on the history they’ve made in the past 11 years and since 2015 always hits my heart.
Great video, I’m really looking forward to part two!
I wouldn't really call the Silver Surfer a crossover for the FF. He was introduced in the FF in a story that's considered classic for the team. Yes, he's become popular enough that he's not just a supporting character in their section of the Marvel Universe but he's still definitely part of that section while having his own thing. Same with Galactus.
Eloquent, extensive yet succinct. As always. Keep posting!
love it man, got yourself a subscription
Nice research on that one
Great writing and editing, man. New sub. Keep it comin'!
i have a feeling when we're older we're gonna all talk about the first time we saw iron man, and the time we watched endgame with our friends, i have a feeling that there is a chance that marvel characters, might become a standard part of our collective understanding, part of our mythos and part of our morals, we'll aspire to the morals of Cap, the intelligence of Tony, and the growth of the others, i think if we pay attention there are stories being told now from this material that will, shape and mold to leaders of our future. i know this sounds sappy and overly optimistic but i truly think the MCU has transcended the category of movie and has become an event for many, the only question is can they maintain it, to maintain such a provoking set of stories
I think Marvel has gotten into the collective conscience, but I actually hope they are only reflections of a deeper truth. When we look at values we do so because they are true and actual, not because a made-up character shows them. In other words, Marvel should never take the place of actual virtues, no matter how religiously held.
Amazing video. Loved watching it. On to part two...
Love this video 3000
It really is strange to think of Superheroes as mythological gods, but at the same time you understand this must have been how Greece and Rome and all those other nations viewed their mythology at one point or another.
This video is amazing as a long time marvel fan thank you man
MCU has two big issues, there is an illusion of change and it sets up difficult questions but fails to answer them.
Prabhnoor Hans comic accurate tbf
Prabhnoor Hans I think it kept it's eyes on the greatest arc which was Iron man's. Plenty was added and lost but the main arc was kept.
I get the first thing but I don't get the last thing. I don't notice any big questions.
Lol, sounds like my life in general 😂🤔
It's best to see both sides of the coin while you retrospect. I'll see you in Marvel: Negative
Your video analyses are very entertaining and well made, I know what I'll be listening for the next couple of hours if not days.
Dont forget that Thor introduces Hawkeye, and Iron Man introduces Black Widow.
Great video. As a guy who grew up reading Marvel comics, the MCU has been the fulfillment of so many childhood daydreams. It's not perfect, but it's much, much more than even 9 year old me dared to hope for.
What a great video, really enjoyed it , the editing is very well done , pls post more
Wow great video essays 👍. Subscribed
Galactus wasn't a space cloud. He's inside the cloud. It was meant to be setting up the reveal for the next movie. If you watch the cloud, when they dive into it, there's just a hint of the cloud coming to the shadow of his distinctive helmet behind it, cutting just short of breaking through it for the reveal. I only noticed on my second watch, because the first time, I was too busy railing at the screen "Galactus is not a f****ng cloud!"
That “assemble” cut gave me chills I have to subscribe.
Nice essay, thank you Jesse! The perfect documentation during a good breakfast! :)
Wonderfully put together.
I love how this pops up the day after I do my paper on Kant by talking about that "I am Iron Man" *snap* scene.
These are really well put together
Watching the lovely dialogue of Chadwick Boseman in here tugs at heartstrings.
Jesse, not sure if you're going to see this, but I love all of your video essays. The composition and depth of these videos are fantastic, keep it up. You're way up on my video essay/film channels like Movies with Mikey, Schafrillas, HoustonProductions1, captain midnight and I just gotta say it before you get big.
Great video.
Can't wait for part two.
Brilliant video essay! You've just found yourself one more sub.
Incredible. How do you not have a trillion subscribers already?
Your videos are great! And I agree that Marvel’s formula has been a huge success both critically and financially. But I also don’t think every studio needs to replicate it exactly. JL was a failure for sure but I also don’t think it’s a failure because it hadn’t copied the marvel formula. Personally, I loved MoS, BvS, and I’m confident I’ll love Zack Snyder’s Justice League.
They did things their own way and that isn’t a bad thing, especially because if they had solo movies for each JL member, everyone would hate on them for copying Marvel. So Snyder had his own Lord of The Rings type five-film arc planned, and I think it would’ve worked great (structurally and otherwise) if there was no studio meddling. While Marvel felt like cookie cutter films, I really appreciated DC for taking a risk and daring to do something different.
I’d also say Marvel had a negative impact on DC because the general audience wanted humorous escapist entertainment instead of deconstructionist character studies of their favorite superheroes. (And gatekeeping and focusing on who the characters weren’t instead of who they were, but that’s a whole different story haha)
Like I said, really enjoy your videos. I just needed to push back on your DC comparison a little bit.
love your use of music and the phrase "Tales to astonish"
17:48 that line is actually what Marvel Studios said to Fox and Sony, they took their a list characters XMen, Spider-Man fantastic 4 etc. and out of desperation marvel studios turned to there b and c tier, practically unknown characters like iron man and thor, and look where we are now. What a gift xD
to be fair marvel sold ff4 spider-man and xmen out of desperation
Man I hope one day I can see you in the credits of a movie's promo, I'll see the hell of that movie!!
Who hated Evans as Johnny Storm? I can’t imagine anybody else doing such an amazing job.
I thought he was hilarious.
your videos are so good dude! Seiously
Dope video dude. Teared up a bit lol, you nailed it.
It wasn't fair of him to use "the porch" music during the Spiderman speech (that's at 26:10)
Avengers Assemble scene is the most epic in movie history, period. Goose bumps every time.
I love your videos keep it up
His behavior in Iron man 2 can be explained by the fact he was dying!!!.....I’d be reckless too!!!..
Great job :)
update: i have seen part 2 and he addresses this lol
idk about "not needing to watch all of the movies to understand things." Iron Man 3 hinged entirely on Tony having to overcome his anxiety and panic attacks. As a kid, I watched all three of the iron man movies in order without seeing Avengers, so when i watched Iron Man 3, I had no clue what the heck was stressing Tony out so badly or why what that kid in the first scene upset him so much. I think i assumed he, for some reason, was only just now experiencing PTSD from the cave in Iron Man 1.
edit: pretty sure avengers is also the setup for tony having an addiction(?) to making new suits. Without that it just comes out of nowhere in 3 that he just suddenly has all these crazy ass suits.
The Argument of not having to see all the movies doesn't work the other way around though: I didn't watch the Avengers movies and felt really lost while watching the Spiderman movies...
Such good
Say whatever you want about the MCU (good or bad), they're truly the few cinematic universes that's still ongoing today and know how to do it right. They're not perfect but they gave us a satisfying conclusion that not even Star Wars could achieve.
After your marvel part 2 can you do an analysis of there will be blood?
