There I was, a guy excited to go to the movies, viewing myself as a sophisticated consumer of movies with discerning taste. I scoffed, yes scoffed, at the rubes lining up to watch the latest generic blockbuster superhero entertainment product as I entered the theater screening the A24 arthouse action science fiction movie Everything, Everywhere, All at One.
After two long hours and 20 long minutes, the movie ends and the end titles were on screen. Produced by Joe and Anthony Russo, it read. The Russo brothers. Veteran Marvel contentmakers. The directors behind the Avengers movies and so forth.
I had been fooled into a Marvel movie.
