Marvel Creative Committee Disbanded

the Marvel Creative Committee — which includes writer Brian Michael Bendis, publisher Dan Buckley, Marvel Enterprises Chief Creative Officer Joe Quesada — has been disbanded following Monday’s revelation that Marvel Studios‘ chief Kevin Feige will now report to Disney’s Alan Horn instead of Marvel Entertainment CEO Issac Perlmutter.

According to the report, the Committee’s divided attention on their other duties and “pedestrian” story notes created plenty of headaches for Feige and co-cheif Louis D’Esposito. The notes allegedly led to director Edgar Wright leaving Ant Man after developing the project for half a decade. Removing the committee gives Fiege, D’Esposito and executive producer Victoria Alonso further creative freedom to chart the direction of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It also continues Marvel Studios’ growing power over Marvel Entertainment.

With Captain America: Civil War already in production, it is presumed Doctor Strange will be the last film to receive any of the committee’s attention.

If that's true, this is good news.

So it seems that this has all come to a head. Despite evidence to the contrary it looks like Feige managed to blame Perlmutter and anyone else outside of his division for any failure or mishap.

And so he was able to shut it down. It was the opening salvo in the war that last week saw Feige and Marvel Studios’ films taken out of Perlmutter’s purview, in favour of Disney.

The bigger question, is how did Feige manage to strong-arm Disney into this decision? Because it has left him, far more secure on “Feige Island” with less inconvenient critical voices. If Feige doesn’t answer to Marvel, who does he answer to?

As a former employee to Marvel’s film division said to me “if you want a target on your back, just say no to Kevin.”

Let's start taking bets on how long until a movie of this gets made.
 
Well, if these movies are going to deviate from the comics, that might mean that Cap won't, um...

'Cause I don't want to cry again!!! :pssst:

I don't think I knew Carrie Ann Moss was in this, but I am glad to see her working.
