RUMOR: These Are The Movies Marvel's Scrapped Creative Committee Consulted On
Much has been made of the Creative Committee, which apparently played a role in Kevin Feige's decision to separate Marvel Studios from Marvel Entertainment & CEO Ike Perlmutter, but which movies did the group get involved with? The answer to that may surprise you...
As you've likely heard by now, the Marvel Entertainment Creative Committee made up of names like Alan Fine, Dan Buckley, Joe Quesada, and Brian Michael Bendis will no longer be playing a role in the Marvel Studios movies. They've been blamed for Edgar Wright leaving Ant-Man and providing notes which disrupted the development of many of their projects. Now, Bleeding Cool has revealed the movies which were most influenced by this group, and it's a pretty interesting list.
Those were apparently Iron Man, Avengers, Guardians Of The Galaxy, Captain America: The First Avenger, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, and Captain America: Civil War. Those they didn't work on were Iron Man 2, Iron Man 3, and Avengers: Age Of Ultron. While I'm not doubting the site's sources, they're taking a very anti-Kevin Feige approach with these stories, and the fact that the movies they've been told the Creative Committee didn't work on are all the divisive and controversial ones makes me wonder if those passing on this information can be trusted (especially as The Hollywood Reporter very much painted the committee as the bad guys). What do you think?
