Everything The Internet thinks it knows about the origins and intent of "cringe dialogue," "Marvel humor" or whatever new name it has by the time this video goes up is wrong - but that doesn't mean there isn't something to be learned from WHERE bad media-criticism comes from. Not just to get better at it, but to understand how sometimes "bad analysis" is BAD on purpose - and what shows up later as sloppy ill-informed critique starts out as deliberate and insidious dumbing down ...and no, it still doesn't mean you have to "like" (or dislike!) the talking bracelet game

I think you could trace a lot of "Marvel humor" to the way Stan Lee wrote Spider Man, way back in the day. Mid-fight quipping and witty banter feels like it kind of came from those days, with Lee drawing on his upbringing exposure to vaudeville and so-called "Catskills comedy" that also appeared in other mainstream media like Abbott & Costello.

Exactly, which is in some ways, how Batman and Superman were first written as well, so you could run a line back to the comics of the Lone Ranger or the show stylings of Buffalo Bill or the vaudeville stars in between... Heck, maybe even to the fourth wall breaks of Hamlet and Puck

Really good video!
