  1. How about we acknowledge the speech that Ruben Blades gives Michael Fassbender by phone at the end of The Counselor was painfully, horrifically and hilariously bad? Sooooo bad.
  2. Is there any way to reliably assess which movies get the most repeat theater business? Obviously, bigger grosses and bigger multipliers suggest it.
  3. Maybe this should go to Classic Conversation. Chris Kyle's moral status can be fiercely argued elsewhere.
  4. Tomorrowland does have the Disney marketing machine going strong. Doesn't guarantee hugeness though.
  5. Kang/Immortus/Rama Tut? Bleh. Too bad we aren't set up for the Masters of Evil.
  6. That would be horrifying to me as a cbm fan. I would have to comfort myself with the following years being chock full of movies I thought I would never get with characters I've liked for decades. Is that like fatigue?
  7. It's not luck when older brother scares little brother's rivals away.
  8. Yeah, well, MayPac Ii would lose a lot from the first one.
  9. Is it good or bad that people aren't blaming Hydra for the drop? Are people realizing it is more Thanos' fault?
  10. I disagree with the argument for more RDJ presence. He's been great in every way for the franchise(s). Disney is looking long term. Unlike Sony, they don't need to milk a character to death. Captain Marvel, Black Panther and Dr. Strange don't have to be huge. People can still buy IM cups and hats in 2021. It's not a disaster if the replacement films are down Dom, but making it up internationally.
  11. Yeah, Disney really looks ridiculous in their stumbling pursuit of money.
  12. Season one - batter gets 60 homers, 130 rbi Season two - batter gets 48 homers, 133 rbi Season two is "shockingly bad"?
  13. Dark Jedi is spot on with the UK analogy. I was going to use the example of people taunting Alabama because they haven't won the national title in the last five minutes.
  14. I wish AOU had done better. I overpredicted it. The money that Disney will make is still unreal. Avengers merchandise is gigantic with kids. People criticize the no-real danger aspect of these movies. The funny thing is that is true to the comics. Killing characters off or switching who wears a costume are temporary fixes that aren't mecessary on the movies.
  15. Loss of interest. Fatigue. Can the people arguing this is happening make clear what the bar is for future CBMs? If CACW makes 300/900, is that a win for your argument? How important are Ant-Man and Deadpool to this?
  16. Noctis is like Michael Jordan fans who seek out positive comments about LeBron James so they can declare victory in a fight that doesn't exist.
  17. NBA Finals? No, first round. Kentucky Derby? Uhhh...
  18. Disney's statement about $200 plus and maybe the record smells of confidence, not future fudging.
