Marvel’s recent adjustments to its Phase 5 and 6 release schedules suggest a strategy reminiscent of the comic book industry’s response to market pressures. As superhero fatigue begins to emerge in cinemas, Marvel is focusing on its core franchises like the Avengers while integrating lesser-known characters into these popular narratives. This approach allows for an exploration of new characters without the risk of standalone failures, mirroring successful comic book tactics. The strategy also emphasizes complete storytelling within films, ensuring each movie provides a satisfying narrative arc, addressing critiques of Marvel’s previous reliance on interconnected sagas that sometimes left individual films feeling incomplete.

Spoiler alert for Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes

“Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes” features a clever callback to the 1968 original film with a humorous twist. In the film, a character named Raka introduces a human woman as “Nova,” a nod to Linda Harrison’s character in the original. However, the joke unfolds as Raka nonchalantly explains that all human women are called “Nova,” a misremembered tradition from “Caesar’s time,” highlighting the theme of distorted historical interpretations.
