There's too many menchildren nowadays that consume every slop that Disney puts out, especially marvel movies/star wars. Last marvel movie I watched was endgame, and even that was dogshit.
Endgame was a perfect series finale and closure for the MCU.

its more so that, original stories that strike the boxes for DEI aren't marketable
it has to be injected into pop culture and franchises with existing wide audiences
audiences that would prefer that those franchises remain true to their memory
at this point its obvious, it's forced in to tick those boxes
and expose people to ideals they can't oppose.
I think one reason DEI and wokeness in movies and series is so reviled is that it's actively dragging down the quality of the storylines of beloved IPs.
You can tell a classical hero's story about discovery, growth, failure, overcoming adversity and eventually fulfilling one's destiny (Luke Skywalker, Tony Stark),
OR a woke story about a girl being so overwhelmingly gifted that everything she does comes naturally to her, failure is not an option (that's only for the pathetic, weak men) and the only thing possibly holding her back is not being aware of her full potential or not believing in her own, infinite awesomeness (Rey, Captain Marvel).
