Winter Soldier had a 95M opening weekend. Avengers had 207M. BvS had 166M. Star Wars had 248M. Civil War already broke the pre-sale record BvS set. Over or under: 205M opening weekend

Age of Ultron was 191M. I listed the first Avengers because it had good word of mouth while AoU was more tepid. Civil War has been getting good buzz so I think 200M is doable. It's tracking at 215M which I think is generous. 205M wouldn't surprise me.

Travis343 posted:It is Mother's Day but who knows how many people are taking their moms to see Captain America. The same people who took their girlfriend to see Deadpool when it opened on Valentine's Day weekend. The same people who will drive by the homeless veteran on Memorial Day weekend to see X-Men Apocalypse. I'm not sure why holiday weekends would make a difference. How hard do you celebrate that you can't squeeze in a three hour window to watch a movie? And if it does affect the box office that's on the studio. They aren't assigned the dates, they pick them. No one in a movie studio knows how to work a calendar?

Is there one destined to get a solo movie down the line? Two things. First, the earliest they would do a Black Widow solo movie would be Phase Four in 2020. Second, he mentions nine movies through 2019, ten counting Civil War. 2016: 1) Captain America: Civil War 2) Doctor Strange 2017: 3) Guardians of the Galaxy 2 4) Thor: Ragnarok 2018: 5) Black Panther 6) Avengers: Infinity War Part I 7) Ant-Man and the Wasp 2019: 8) Captain Marvel 9) Avengers: Infinity War Part II 10) The Inhumans This means they are still doing an Inhumans movie and neither the Agents of SHIELD storyline nor Indiana Jones 5 getting the date have stopped them.

Travis343 posted:If they want to make a Black Widow movie they can do it whenever, just because they say we're doing X movie in Y year it's not like they're going to get arrested if they shuffle some stuff around. quote:FEIGE: We’ve announced the next nine movies, 10 counting Civil War, through the end of 2019. Where we go beyond that are ongoing discussions that we’ll focus on in the next few years because we have a lot to do before then. Of the characters that you’ve just mentioned I would say certainly the one creatively and emotionally that we are most committing to doing is Black Widow. Sounds to me like they've got a full plate for the next three years and he was specifically talking about the three untitled Marvel movies set in 2020 and beyond. ArmyOfMidgets posted:Inhumans and Cyborg will have full trilogies out before anything from Agents of SHIELD is referenced in an MCU movie. The Inhumans on Agents of SHIELD are ordinary people with Kree ancestry. Presumably the Inhumans movie would be about the royal family. I doubt they're would be any overlap. He might count Spider-Man Homecoming as part of the MCU, but I'm still surprised they'd cancel the Inhumans movie. They're pushing the Inhumans pretty hard in the comics as the X-Men Except We Own The Movie Rights.

Toxxupation posted:Well, again, if that rumor of "67 named characters" is true I imagine it'll cost a pretty penny just for casting alone. Also, for just IW parts one and two I really hope they bring in everyone from the MCU - all the Defenders, whoever is a hero on that Agents of Shield show I don't watch, a whole host of new heroes to lead into phase four. Everyone. Just to underscore how important and huge of a threat Thanos is, that the movie ends up wrangling dozens of characters from two different mediums to underscore how desperate things are. I'll be well impressed if that 67 doesn't include Netflix and ABC. There has to be a list out there numbering how many total characters we've already seen.

There's two different Novas being talked about. Rich Ryder / Sam are Marvel's and can be in Guardians if they want. I would like a Nova standalone in MCU Cosmic Phase Four. Frankie Raye was the Herald of Galactus and Johnny's girlfriend. She is very much a part of Fox's FF franchise. I would like a FF to start off the MCU Cosmic Phase Four. Do it Fox. Sell the rights.

I didn't care for X-Men Apocalypse. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great just completely forgetable. Once again, the highlight was Quicksilver and, once again, entirely too much time was spent on Mystique / Xavier / Magneto. I look forward to a New Mutants movie with a brand new cast that somehow still revolves around Xavier and Wolverine followed by an X-Force movie headlined by Mystique and Deadpool.

If Psylocke is the second biggest draw I'm guessing Mystique is number one and Jean is number three. It did get an A- on CinemaScore so apparently people are happy with it.

twistedmentat posted:I was just thinking movie wise they could have Carol come in contact with the power gem in some way and gain her powers that way, rather than needing to create an entire story about Kree infiltrators and Yon-Rogg and the psychomagnetron and all that stuff. I was kinda hoping the Eye of Agamotto would be one. They can keep the Ms. Marvel origin without getting too comic book-y with it. Changing poo poo wholesale doesn't mean it'll be better. See: all three Fantastic Flop movies. Aphrodite posted:Also Marvel military ranks are like Marvel female heights and weights. They're always basically impossible. Nobody under 35 would have her military rank unless they personally saved the world a bunch of times. Maybe it's like Star Trek ranks where Kirk sat in a chair and is now a Captain. Maybe Carol took a stroll through a helicarrier and sat down somewhere important.

Chaos Hippy posted:It was the same way when Bleeding Cool originally reported on the split, if I remember right. Rich Johnston really wants Perlmutter to be the good guy, for some reason. Also for some reason the internet at large wants Perlmutter to be the bad guy. No one has heard his side of the story, but hey, I heard he's tight with money so he must be an all around ominous shitlord. twistedmentat posted:Weren't most of Pearlmutter's ideas less about making the movies, good, but making them more suitable for selling action figures? Wasn't he behind the whole "no girl toys" thing? See! What a shitlord! He doesn't want girls to have toys! Either that or toy makers have found out that boys age 6-12 have shown an equal amount of interest in playing with action figures while girls start to lose interest around 8. So toy makers have a pretty reliable six year window to make profits off "boy toys" and a two year window to make a profit off "girl toys." It can't possibly be that little girls mature faster and have a more varied interest in things like drawing, coloring or are more aware of their appearance and like to play dress up, wear jewelry and make up. No, its got to be crusty old man sexism.

The real problem is that Superman has a poor group of villains. Lex the human with an inferiority complex, Zod the bad Superman, Bizarro the dumb Superman and Doomsday the death of Superman. They'll never do a Brainiac movie until they figure out how to squeeze him into the Caped Jesus narrative. It also doesn't help that nerd culture has conditioned us to think green skinned aliens are nymphomaniacs and not kleptomaniacs.

It's Sony doing the weird movie, not Marvel. If Marvel was doing it I'd chuckle and say "sure, why not" because they've built up a lot of good will. I haven't liked a Sony comic movie since Spider-Man 2 with Doc Ock.

Saying that Suicide Squad is worse than Fantastic Four is a little misleading. FF is not good but it's definitely not 9% bad. Catwoman is also 9% and it's way worse. I'd put Fantastic Four with Green Lantern (26) and BvS (27) and if SS is doing 32% then that sounds about right. What doesn't sound right are the complaints that it's slow and boring. This should be a big dumb movie with sexy bad girls and angry bad mans and large explosions and thin plots. This should be anything but boring.

The Question IRL posted:Oh one last point, did anyone remember the scene where Flagg says to Waller that she should just let him make his own squad. That he'd get "Some Tier 1 operatives and make them into some real Pipe Hitters." Marsellus Wallace was talking about crackheads. Flagg was talking about the Pipe Hitters Union. http://www.pipehittersunion.com Its a term for private military companies that employ ex-military, special forces and police. They're mercenaries. Why would Flagg want to take some tier one operatives and turn them into crackheads?

I thought I'd seen a lot of Godzilla movies, but it turns out I've only seen a quarter of them. The original, vs King Kong, the two American ones, Mothra, MechaGodzilla, three headed dragon guy and the crocodile/ankylosaur dude. I also had no idea the bad guys had their own movies before hand. Travis, since you seem pretty knowledgeable could you add the pre-Godzilla movies, too?

Big Mean Jerk posted:If you want something a bit more cutting edge, there's always Gamera vs Guiron. When I was younger I used to watch a lot of MST3K and I could have swore that's where I watched Godzilla, but as it turns out they only did two movies neither of which I remember. Seeing as how that was 20+ years ago I chalked it up to bad memory. Now that you mention Gamera I'm wondering if that's who I'm thinking of. I knew I'd seen more than six giant monster movies as a kid.

The thing about the injured Colonel in armor is that it is so oddly specific. Almost like it was in the first draft and then someone pointed out that scene took place years ago and couldn't be Rhodey. I never considered Carol for the schizophrenic. I immediately thought of Aurora. Marvel MCU: Phase Four: Alpha Flight (2020)

I might be talking out of my rear end here, but I'm pretty sure Carol didn't make Colonel until after the Air Force. If the movie is while she's still in the Air Force it'd just be Captain anyway.
