Because they have created quite the unique Marvel universe with their movies. If you fail to see the achievement in that I recommend you re-watch the marvel movies. I wouldn't really call it popcorn material. Point is that they deserve support... the FF franchise doesn't. |
Shared universes have been done for ages though. Not to mention the characters and most of the plot situations existed previously on the comics. It's an achievement only in the sense they managed to do a lot of money with a lot of movies. But it's not as far as characters, storyline and cinematic techniques are concerned... except perhaps for the first Iron Man, which is still the best movie from Marvel.
And what deserves and what does not deserve support is fairly relative. I don't think either the Marvel shared universe or the Fast and Furious franchise deserve one billion and a half from the box office... though yeah, if I were to choose only between those two, Marvel obviously deserves it more.
