Fine then. If we want to be fair, I hated The Hobbit movies and loved the LOTR movies. I don't care. I don't spew hatred for them every fucking second of my life because life is too short to be complaining about fantasy movies called "The Hobbit" solely because I didn't personally like them.
You're incredibly self-righteous about your lack of fandom. (also, considering people on here went ballistic over Spidey's "disappointing" weekend, I really am not in the mood for these kind of hypocritical arguments about "overdoing it").
If people want to ban me, fine. It was worth it to defiantly roar against Bay and Paramount as the franchise that was a big part of my childhood died.

No, I'm saying that it's easy for me to ignore a bad movie instead of being blinded by hate for something so minuscule.
I think the only time I was legitimately frustrated with a movie was the BATB remake, and even then I got over it after about 4 days. I still hated it, but it was passive rather than being actively angry at it. You, on the other hand, can't seem to let it go with your favorite toy action figure you played with as a kid and are mad that Michael Bay isn't making your favorite movies with your favorite toy.
So 1 movie vs a decade long series that whizzed the franchise down the toilet.
"Fair" comparison I guess.

No, I won't because I recognize that it's a fucking video game adaptation and I won't give a shit about it "ruining" some nonexistent mythos.
You're literally complaining about an adaptation of a Hasbro toy too.
So you're saying you have zero standards for the series you consume?

All that Perlmutter comes up with these days are dumbass storylines trying to explain why Cap and Magneto are Nazis now. Marvel would be better off without him.

Lol, nobody plays Pokémon for the mythos.
But the Ultra Beasts are secretly the spawn of Yog Sothoth and will despoil the land of men unless they're all destroyed!!1 To kill them is my great quest, to annihilate them is my cause!

Because we hadn't standardized thread bans yet. Now we have.
Who knew Transformers would be the movie to lead to most bans.
It's more than meets the eye, just not in a good way.

I'm kind of fascinated by the drops All Eyes on Me has had
Wow, it's like an unauthorized made for Lifetime caliber biopic of Tupac that everyone who knew him has disowned kinda sux and should've never been made

When the trailer for Jumanji played in front of homecoming my crowd ate it up. There were plenty of laughs and even the last joke about not going into the water wearing a backpack got laughs. And I know I'm not the only one who has mentioned this kind of reaction from people seeing the trailer. I think it's really going to resonate with families and little kids.
Yeah, you thought Transformers 5 was good.
I guess I'll just leave at it that.

If Baby Driver goes over 100 mil and Atomic Blonde has a remotely decent RT, these "Atomic Blonde can't do 100 mil!" posts are gonna look amazingly stupid.

Nothing is but they likely won't.
Whether they do or don't, the fact that he was on a Marvel TV show produced by Disney won't stop them. If they were willing to allow an "MCU" production through an enemy studio I doubt they care if they cast a guy who was in their own Netflix TV series.

Gunn said MTVU and MCU are very separated now.
Who the hell cares what Gunn says about TV, he doesn't direct any MCU TV. Bottom line, there is absolutely nothing stopping them from using Vincent D'Onofrio as Kingpin since Disney already uses him as Kingpin.

JL is Synder's movie. There is simply no TIME for Whedon to take over and redo the entire movie. There will just be reshoots.Not if it has extensive Whedon reshoots.

Spectre was down from Skyfall.
The series needed to get saved in the first place via Casino Royale back in 2005.
Bond is not immune to downward momentum.

So how long until we get a Batman/Wonder Woman film? Or better yet a film where Diana/Bruce mentor one of the Titans (Nightwing, Blue Beetle, Raven) xD
I have a feeling the "solo" Batman film will get reconfigured into a Batman/WW crossover.

"JL will flop, na na na na na na!!!"
Why will it flop?
"CUZ ZAC SNYDER SUCKS!!!1"
Snyder has no creative control anymore, they'll have to blame Whedon.

Just now, YourMother said:
IDK about that. Marvel Studios and Marvel Television have some bad blood going on right now.
No they don't. They're both owned by Disney and Marvel TV is still "canon". Daredevil references the events of Avengers 1 as the reason Kingpin's empire exists!

Just now, DAR said:
Another villian that could be used in a future Spidey film is the Kingpin
Only if Vincent D'Onofrio plays him.

What does Baby Driver have to do with a Atomic Blonde? And why are you bringing up the R rating?
It's a comparable R-rated movie with some audience crossover? Or are we not allowed to extrapolate between R-rated action movies now?

Not true. The Moore and Dalton movIes were not huge with Licence to Kill flat or bombing
Moore's movies prior to the 1980s were plenty big. License to Kill was 1989 and the very tail end of 007 prior to Goldeneye.

Can somebody give me one good reason why the Atomic Blonde would do better than John Wick 2? And please don't give me that Wonder Woman comment because Wonder Woman has absolutely nothing to do with Atomic Blonde. I mean did King Arthur become a hit because it was starting a white dude just like Guardians of the Galaxy 2?
IT'S SUMMER. Also Baby Driver (which is also R) is likely to go over 100 mil because it's summer.

I saw Minions, Alvin 4, both Planes movies, Pets, and Ice Age 5, the new Smurfs because of babysitting my younger cousins. I even sat through Norm of The North because my little cousins wanted to see it.
If I had a family member who wanted to see Norm of the North I'd disown them, that's like an HP Lovecraft level taint of the bloodline.
-
Meh, I wouldn't be mad at a new Doc Ock (Molina's characterization is a bit...different than the comics characterization anyway).
Norman/Harry Osborn have been done to death, even before Amazing Spidey 2 though.
-
Okay, if you people don't get Atomic Blonde over 100 mil I'm gonna spam this place with TP MUMMY ARMY posts until you run back to the IMDB forums.
-
tracking has sucked for most things. Remember the whole "Spidey will only get 100 mil" business from a few weeks ago?

Again, if you want to ban me, fine. I'm not on here to make friends, I'm on here to make my opinion heard. This site doesn't really matter to me, what happens to (some) movies does. I would be pissed about The Last Knight regardless. I wouldn't want to meet most of you in realspace, especially That One Guy.
