I saw one of the Star Wars prequels in theaters when I was a teenager and my friend and I stayed through the end credits. We were sitting pretty close to the front. There wasn’t an end credits scene but after the screen went black we heard Darth Vader breathing. We looked around and we were the only people in the theater and his breathing was so loud! Terrifying.

In regards to the party I can see that, if the original party wasn't also perverse. People were dying at that party. Sex in public. Excess in all its forms. Its just that Tobeys was more.... grim. Also from his frequent talk about getting into the movies its clear Tobey gangster man and his ugly party had no connection to the movie industry.

I take the point of Sidney leaving and thats it and I agree with it. Maybe its a personal thing. I found that scene alongside other scenes where 'racism isn't a thing' to be a little jarring. It makes me ask why the scene was put in in the first place. Sidney morals could have been challenged other ways. The same thing would have played out.

>It's just the same "adventure" in every single movie. Introduce new generic big bad guy, heroes get into cgi fight with big bad guy, heroes win, rinse and repeat. There is zero reason to follow these movies in order

This sounds more like you making an excuse for your inability to follow anything past a single movie. Sorry, that's your own fault, not anyone else's, especially not the MCU's.

Each movie might use the same three-act formula, but the characters change, and when characters change, the story changes. Which is again why I compare it to a TV series like Star Trek.

>Meanwhile 90% of the characters are just the same generic quip machine, there is not a single interesting character in the MCU

Every character looks one dimensional if you don't have the attention span to connect even just two movies together compared to when you do.

EDIT:

Literally your whole posting history (at least recently) is just you shitting on other people for the movies they like, and not just the MCU. I hope that you one day learn to enjoy a movie without putting others down.
