    So I read through the artist formerly known as Justice League thread, and I gotta say - somebody should ban the words "Marvel", "DC", "Joss", "Whedon", "Zack" and "Snyder" FOR. E.VER.

    Or, and I realize how batshit crazy this is, they could ban the handful of trolls (and more importantly, not unban them) instead of coming up with increasingly byzantine rules that punish everyone else?

    I seriously think people would be praising spider-man box office performance more if that "astonishing" comment was not made. 

    Also just realised Deadpool made $790m without china. If it was released in china, I bet it had made $100m minimum. Above $850 for a R-rated origin superhero, Now that's astonishing.

     

    If it had been made to allow release in China, I think it would've made less everywhere else.

    I have had to block this guy from other feeds like Twitter. Literally was stalking me there on other forums ranting and raving about, you guessed it, Spider-Man. 

     

    And have blocked him here. I see he is still responding to my comments, knowing I have blocked him and has been told several times by baumer to knock it off. Won't address the guy or read his comments but... I'm tired of having him getting only warnings for his behavior that got him banned from other forums.

     

    Mods here tend to coddle trolls like few other sites I've ever been to, aside from sites that don't have mods. Probably because they'd have to ban Cjohn otherwise :P

    But then forgets that an original scifi movie sits at the top of WW BO since 2010. Did that change anything?

     

    Yes, we got 3D on all the things.

     

    That's what the success of Valerian, if it has any, will bring. It won't be more big budget independent films, sci-fi epics, or whatever. It'll be miscast leads, because that, or something equally shallow, will be the takeaway. Just like 3D was why Avatar was succesful or a Cinematic Universe was why Avengers was successful or old pop songs was why Guardians was successful.
