Traditional plot structures are used because they speak to something inside of people. Subverting that just to be different doesn’t make a movie better.
Traditional plot structure, love it, traditional plot content, dull.
The thing that made the Infinity War movies interesting was that something was finally at stake. It didn’t just resolve all the interesting ideas in a fist fight and the power of friendship.
I mean, it sort of did in the second movie, but at least there was some true sacrifice and considerations about right and wrong along the way.
Got a regular Joseph Campbell over here.
