Any solution to super hero CGI endings?

Well pretty much all of them do it now so its no longer a spectacle it once was but I am not sure how to get around it. IN superhero films you usually end with a battle to defeat the bad guy and CGI is pretty much the only way to do it nowadays. Practical effects still have there place, but it would be extremely difficult to reproduce the scale you need for superhero films using just practical effects with modern audiences, you need only watch older superhero films to see this. Superman was a great film when it was released and still is a classic, but its a classic for its time. If Man of Steel handled the effects work like Superman did people would be screaming how cheap and dated it looked.

Try to convince Hollyweird to stop making them?

I don't think that there's better solution than even more CGI. It's not the ideal solution but it worked.

See, modern superhero movies that didn't feature big CGI fest at the end felt wrong because audience is acustomed to it and kinda expect it. It's like the "money shot" of a porn. If it didn't happen, it's unsatisfying. Eventhough that's pretty much almost the same fuckin' ending for every porn.

The current superhero movies, because of their "cinematic universes" approach, suffer from what some may call the "Dragon Ball Z syndrome."

If you haven't familiar with Dragon Ball Z, or DBZ for short, it's a manga and anime that constantly upper the stake of the threat the heroes get from the enemies, up and up and up into absurd territories.

A story about a world fighting tournament at first became a matter of destroying planets and solar system, yes SOLAR SYSTEM, using bare hands in the later episodes.

Now Black Widow, Hawkeye, Batman and Joker and other "decently powered" characters can't possibly compete in the world of Dr.Strange, Thanos and, in the future, Galactus and Silver Surfer. The stake is constantly going up and up into ridiculous levels. So, Black Widow can shoot guns and do martial arts right? Ha, let's have her fight hand to hand againts galactic celestial beings in no CGI, Van Damme vs Dolph Lundgren epic '90s style!

So there's no escape from CGI fest ending, really. The only way to not going that route is to not succumb into the DBZ syndrome in the first place. However, that kind of approach can never make a series of long lasting cinematic universe. Nolan's Batman can't even stand 3 movies. The story ended with TDK. TDKR was just a beginning of a DBZ style escalating threat mode. Oh no, Gotham City is almost destroyed (again). What next? The whole country is in danger! The entire planet! The universe!

The only way to go is up. And when that happens, the only ending is the CGI fest ending.

i think you're just bored with comics movies... maybe try some non-superhero movies for the next couple of months...

Any solution to stop super hero movies?

Since 'don't do it' is probably not going to fly, I'd say incorporate it into the actual story. I feel like just exploding things is like mandatory fireworks on holidays. Yeah they're cool, but they scare dogs and they don't feel that special because mandatory.

I think most films can solve their issues if they just prioritize story over flash. If the story requires explosions because it's integral to the story and the scene, then sure. If it doesn't, then don't add them. So I guess I still think "don't do it" is a legitimate argument lol.
