For Nothing But The Chaos, Marvel Should Let Kim Kardashian Join The MCU
Being a Marvel fan in 2022 is a strange existence. I'm an OG fan - I was in the cinema opening weekend for both Iron Man and The Incredible Hulk, as well as Avengers, so whenever you feel the MCU 'began', I was there for it. Since then, I have seen the MCU grow from 'fun superhero movies' to 'whoa are superhero movies good now?' to 'this is the most powerful and compelling piece of media I have ever known' to 'just a bunch of silly stuff that happens'. I cried in the cinema watching Avengers: Endgame for the first time. I'm a full grown adult, professional media critic, and I'd like to think I have a good sense of both critical analysis and distance from the media I consume. Still I cried, and I have no shame admitting it. But it's startling how quickly I have gone from that level of investment to not really caring about anything in the MCU at all. That's why, for the chaos of it all, I'd love to see them grant Kim Kardashian's wish and put her in a Marvel movie.
