Those Antman posters are the movie equivalent of having Wolverine appear on comicbook covers to boost sales. In honour of Christopher Lee here is the poster to my fave movie with him in it

Hank Pym is a 60 year old man in this movie, and also not the titular character. And there's nothing to say Ant Man couldn't show up in a team up movie later, but you seem to be intentionally misunderstanding what the dude you quoted was saying.

The Russian Ant-Man poster is much better. Apparently it's a Jim Steranko homage:

Cracked keeps talking about how Marvel's business model is setting itself up to crash hard, with one flop being all it takes, and I feel like Ant-Man will be the big way to prove or disprove that theory. Because this has the strongest chance of failure you could get for this model.

Antman could be the worst movie of the year and it would at least make it's budget back.

All Ant-Man failing is going to do--and it really does smell like a creative/critical failure at this point--is make Marvel/Disney even more staunchly conservative in their creative decisions. It's not going to lead to the Goddard take on Black Widow some people are apparently convinced could happen. It'll also be the end of the Marvel Studios hot streak, which at this point is welcome. because it doesn't preclude good new movies from being made and will hopefully shut up all the people who can't stand popular things which aren't the exact specific things that they like.

I think he meant more that the "MAKE A MARVEL MOVIE ABOUT EVERYTHING" would slow down. Which, frankly, wouldn't hurt my feelings.

A GLISTENING HODOR posted:I think he meant more that the "MAKE A MARVEL MOVIE ABOUT EVERYTHING" would slow down. And yeah, this is more what we're looking at. Not a crash of the entire company, just 'okay, we need to slow this train the gently caress DOWN'.

But it will happen in a way where instead of getting them trying crazy poo poo like Guardians and Ant-Man, we will just get Iron Man 4-6 all in one summer or something instead.

If you thought the Marvel movies weren't same-y enough, you're going to get your wish. Disney responds to failing to expand outside of their creative comfort zone very poorly. Hell they barely respond to success well.

Hah. I know nothing about this movie, but I love the poster. Edit: I thought the poster might be taken figuratively as a bunch of adults who can't handle kids, but I guess it's an actual movie about a zombie outbreak in a school. Trailer wasn't that funny but the cast seems promising... davidspackage fucked around with this message at 06:17 on Jun 12, 2015 |

Yeah it'll be fine, everyone I know who isn't particularly interested in comics/movies/internet stuff/talking about comic book movies on the Internet has just been saying stuff like , "I'll watch any movie Marvel puts out!" because their brand is STRONG

Marvel spent most of the last decade putting out movies based on characters no one in the public ever gave much of a gently caress about like Thor, Iron Man, and Captain America along with complete left-field nobodies like the Guardians of the Galaxy and making them work to various degrees. "Sure the Ant-Man movie looks like poo poo but then again it wasn't long ago that we all thought Thor would never work so what the gently caress I'll give it a shot. My kids will love it if nothing else." It's like Disney animation in the 90s. Sure Pochaontas and Hunchback were lame as gently caress and the hot streak broke, but the brand built from the 1-2-3-4 punch of The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, and The Lion King built a foundation that stands strong to this very day.

I do not get the appeal of those loving things. Are they actually funny in whatever the original film was? They just look like lazy poo poo character design to me.

I could see kids liking them since they are intentionally very goofy. I don't know if they can actually carry a movie all by themselves though.

Especially when all of their dialogue is monosyllabic. At least Madagascar Penguins could talk and even they can't carry their own for long.

I'm assuming doing a Minions movie is super cheap though since they're all just voiced by one guy who (IIRC) isn't a regular actor.

Weird poo poo that speaks gibberish / limited english and screams a lot and gets into amusing antics is a solid formula. People (especially kids) loving ADORE - The Minions - Raving Rabbids - Gremlins - Gizmo - Donald Duck - Fizgig - Salacious Crumb - R2 D2 - Groot - the Toy Story Aliens - Wall-E etc.

Mister Chief posted:Mr. Bean. poo poo yeah, Mr. Bean. Also, literally every movie with a cute monkey, the gopher from Caddyshack, Slimer, I mean, drat, the list could go on forever. Are the Minions a gimmick? Yes. But that's like saying "oh, drama is a gimmick." Enjoying slapstick silly creatures and general goofball antics is just part of being a human. We eat that poo poo up.

That meme needs to die. But they're completely likable and inoffensive as they're presented in the movies, for the reasons listed above.
