00:00 Adam Devine is catching heat online for saying Marvel movies ruined comedy.
00:04 In an interview with podcaster and YouTuber Theo Vaughn, Devine shared his hot take.
00:10 "I think like Marvel ruined it. I feel like superhero movies kind of ruined comedies because
00:17 they people watch you go to the theater and you're expect to watch something that costs
00:24 200 million dollars to make and comedy movies aren't that aren't that."
00:28 The comment has spurred online discussion with many social media users poking fun at Devine.
00:33 Like this user who wrote "When Iron Man does stand up, I'll panic."
00:37 But others agreed to some extent. This user added "He's not wrong." Then again,
00:41 the same argument could be made for any high budget blockbuster franchise
00:45 like Star Wars or Fast and Furious. All in all, the mass production of large budget
00:50 series like these has affected smaller movies such as comedies in this instance.
00:55 Whether or not viewers agree with Devine, the comment has started a conversation
00:59 on budgets in Hollywood and how they affect their movies.
