The hate begins: The trailer for ‘The Marvels’ is the video with the most dislikes in the history of Marvel’s UCM

In just a few days since its launch, the first trailer of ‘The Marvels’ has become the trailer with the most dislikes (“I don’t like”) Marvel’s MCU on YouTube. And we all know why.

The trailer for ‘The Marvels’ dropped just a week ago, and as of this writing, it has racked up 657,000 dislikesfar exceeding its number of likes (“likes”), which currently stands at 495,000. On the Marvel Spain channel the proportion is even more bleeding: 25,000 dislikes versus 4,200 likes.

Some dissenting voices within the Marvel fan base have denounced the oversaturation of UCM movies and series, and lately it is true that the level of scripts has declined. Marvel is possibly at its lowest quality moment since Phase 1. The first trailer for ‘The Marvels’ also shows obvious flaws in polishing the special effects, something that also happened recently with the first look at ‘She-Hulk’ (later it wasn’t that bad). but so many dislikes They are due to another reason that has nothing to do with all this. And you know.

The toxic attacks on diversity at Marvel hit hard in the reviews From series like ‘She-Hulk’ or ‘Ms. Marvel’, and the first ‘Captain Marvel’ movie was one of the pioneers in dealing with this hate in networks by having the honor of being the first superhero movie directed by a solo woman in the UCM. The fact that ‘The Marvels’ stars a white woman (Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel – Brie Larson), a black woman (Monica Rambeau – Teyonah Parris) and a young woman of Pakistani origin (Kamala Khan/Ms. Marvel – Iman Vellani) has been the final straw for misogyny and racism on the internet.

Brie Larson had to deal with an unprecedented hate campaign in 2019 while promoting ‘Captain Marvel’, before the film even came out (of course), but now it seems to have increased tenfold, with the trolls emboldened by the increase in criticism (yes, many are deserved) of Marvel and blaming diversity and inclusion for all these ills.

If the “I don’t like” are only due to the boredom of the fans and the low level of Marvel, why does the trailer for ‘Secret Invasion’ have 17 million views and only 21,000 dislikes? Why does the advance of ‘Guardians of the Galaxy vol.3’ accumulate only 5,500 dislikes?
