The Haunted Mansion was decent, it made me want to see LaKeith Stanfield star in more fun adventure movies (something like Brendan Frasier's The Mummy).
Wish was a mess, it felt like they wanted to make a Disney multiverse movie but chickened out and just made a bland Disney movie that constantly references better Disney movies (mostly Snow White to the point where you wonder if Wish is intended to be its prequel). A couple songs were decent but the bulk them felt unpolished and forgettable, like they needed a few more edits and re-writes to come together. The anti-establishment themes were weak and made me wish I were re-watching Nimona instead.
The Marvels was good as a Ms. Marvel TV special but not as a Captain Marvel blockbuster.
Yeah, Wish is an odd movie to watch. It's not too clear why this movie even exists except to promote the 100 years for Disney which doesn't really happen till the credits roll. Maybe they thought if we didn't understand a reference made in the film we would be motivated to watch other Disney content ?
