So happy for Book Club and I don't even want to see it. Glad the market caters to every demo and gets rewarded for it.

MI6 will probably make good use of August

Ex machina is actually a great movie that's remembered. No one cares about the witch
Is it tiring? Being wrong all the time?

I got it during DP2 and the packed theater was really into it. Of course, OS market, horror is up there with action and animation so not a big surprise.

I saw it last night in a party of 15, at least 12 casuals, and I'm pretty sure word of mouth will be amazing.

Loved it. I liked it better than the first one.

It's weird how some people choose to be stuck in time.
Talking about time, do we think this is keeping its date?
Cognitive dissonance. It's why they bitch every time someone contradicts even a little bit of their narrow worldview and yet claim the others are the entitled ones.
No way. The earliest I see it is Nov 2020.

I love that AQP hold.

Interesting.
Everything is ready to set him up in GotG 3, too.

Ralph is sooo gonna break this

That is one beautiful Monday number. I don't think BP's hold on domestic bronze will be a long one.

I don't think Galactus would be the next big bad honestly.
I want Annihilus.

Oh yes. It will definitely be Onslaught in name only.
True, but I meant Avengers vs X Men #cyclopswasright

You just need someone with the superpower to enter movies and TV shows and Disney can make the crossover happen.
Imagine a superhero having to fight a villain as they go through multiple Disney properties.
Also, there's a multiverse. And the concept of another universe spilling into yours as fiction is not new. DC used it with Earth 1 and Earth 2 decades ago.

Onslaught makes sense but I think adapting Avengers vs X-Men could work as well.
In name only. That story is a mess.

It’ll happen. That 500m OW will be to tempting
Yep. As soon as one of those franchises start to lose some ground. I guess the mutants will delay it for a decade and a half. But there's no stopping this.

Spider-man 3 cost THAT MUCH? Where on earth did that money go?
Dance lessons for Maguire

Idk, I get the feeling that this film revitalized interest on the brand among the GA, and unlike the post-Avengers films, AMATW is just two months away so they'll benefit more from the bump. Specially if they closely tie to IW somehow.

Dude, you're really missing the point. Disney should not make the money they make either. All that money should be redistributed back into society.
Enough politics, this is off track. I just don't like the argument "oh, he only made 10 million instead of 100 million, that's okay"
Ironically, the reason they do it's because entertainment became a mass consumption industry due to not only a tiny elite having disposable income for leisure.

Amazing that people on the internet act as if Disney's shareholders are poor starving children to hold on to some strawman argument, lol

No one should make that much money for anything on the planet as long as millions of kids go to bed hungry every night in America alone. He seems like a fine guy but why in the world does anyone need that much money? No one needs 10 million in their entire lifetime, much less 100 million for one movie.
Well, yes. In an ideal world a teacher would earn 20 times what an entertainer does, but in this one I don't see why they'd have to give up money if they can take it. Why are they taken to task as if fixing inequality was their job?

The MCU would not even exist without him. It was his performance what made IM the hit it was. I doubt those reports are true, but if they were he deserves every penny. Probably top 3 most important casting in the history of Hollywood.

Well, about Canto Bight, that's down to personal preference, I see. I personally didn't mind it that much the 1st time I saw the movie, but the 2nd time, I was checking my watch plenty times and it really caught me like a pipebomb how unnecessary the sequence really was.
And if you did believe both to be true, that would still be your prerogative to think that way. But I've seen your Ehrlichs and some other people out in the interwebs say TLJ is a good movie because it was ballsy and it pissed fanboys off with its twists, and... it kinda annoys me that some would have their head so inside their own asshole that they could only find blockbuster filmmaking acceptable if it's made with the intention to deliberately make everyone question their love for the franchise at hand OR if it has cultural implications surrounding its storytelling. Glad that we agree on that not being the case for us. I also agree that TLJ was subversive and risky, and imo some of those risks paid off and were really interesting (fuck all of the haters of the Luke stuff with Rey and Kylo, cause I'm still on board with it). And I like the idea of literally digging deep into the morality of the SW universe the way it did. Canto Bight, however, didn't do it for me. But if it did it for you, that's great, man.
The internet is filled narraties, tho. For every Ehrlich there were three guys crying about ruined childhoods because the story didn't have familiar beats. And I also find annoying that kind of thinking that gives rules to art, because a film being good only comes to down to execution and what works for one might not work for other.
It's not about the story. It's about how that story is told. (And IW told its in a very smart way, btw)
