I love Moana. I saw it twice in the theater. I often do that with kids' movies, or at least I did pre-pandemic. It's an easy way to lift my mood, especially if it has great music, too. I remember the year it came out, it was bitterly cold and gloomy outside all the time, and spending 103 minutes in Polynesia was a very welcome vacation.

I am not particularly interested in Marvel films/shows either. I have never been into boy comics or action movies. I wound up liking Jessica Jones and Luke Cage, though. I have only seen a few other MCU things, including Guardians of the Galaxy. If it weren't for the soundtrack and the adorableness of Groot, I don't think I would remember anything about it. (I also enjoyed watching Ant-Man, but that was 99.9% because I have a thing for Paul Rudd.)

The only superhero movie I have purposely sought out is "Wonder Woman." That was wholly a feminist action and I enjoyed everything but the end battle scene. I own the movie and fast forward through that bit because I care so little about it.

That sounds like something I would do. I don't like to watch fights, even if the winner is great and the loser is pure evil. I haven't seen Wonder Woman, but I would if somebody else wanted to watch it. Same with Black Panther, which I am interested in because I heard it has real panthers in it. (But it's possible that someone was lying to me about the real panthers; I am very gullible.)

The two Black Panther movies are the only other superhero movies I am remotely intrigued by.
