It's a privilege to witness a moment of box-office history alongside a community of box-office enthusiasts. As much as the rivalry between Avatar and MCU fans was occasionally exhausting, I'm glad we got a real race out of this that has potential to continue in the next few years through re-releases and so forth. While Endgame's opening weekend was truly astonishing, there was a part of me that wished there had been a little more suspense in certain regards like there was with Infinity War's OW. Ultimately, what we got was much more exciting simply because the idea of surpassing Avatar felt like a pipe dream to me regardless of the insane pre-sale numbers and gigantic first week. It's great to have had two huge blockbusters with very different runs contesting for the #1 worldwide spot. Avatar's success was built on awesome WOM, the astounding visual spectacle it boasted and its four quadrant appeal, whereas Endgame demonstrated the rewards of patient, careful planning and a firm belief in your brand's USP.

It will be at 1.15am UK time. I'm probably gonna stay up for this, and I've never done so for a Marvel Hall H panel before. It will be a nice way to round off the crazy journey that was Phase 3.

Yes and no. It seemed much more difficult to get 90% or higher on RT back then, yet blockbusters like the SW prequels, Spider-Man 3 and Kingdom for the Crystal Skull all got a fresh rating. I recall reading a 5 star review of Superman Returns from one of the big film publications at the time and becoming convinced I was going to witness a masterpiece.

Unless it's actually out there somewhere, I'm very disappointed no one has re-cut this trailer featuring Nicholas Angel's reaction shots to the Romeo and Juliet production in Hot Fuzz.

So which one of the cast members is going to take on the Will Smith role of poking fun at the insane visual effects work so that everyone ends up laughing with it rather than at it?

It Chapter Two: You won't see a more terrifying trailer today. Cats: Hold my milk...

I have a feeling this will be a poster or a tease rather than the full-on trailer, but we shall see...

Looks like we could be getting it at 10pm UK time, so one hour from now.

Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper was in constant circulation in my house around 2004/05 due to my sister's obsession with it. Somehow I managed to avoid the rest of them.

Last time I checked it was scheduled for May 8th 2020, but I can't see them making that date if they're only in the screenwriting phase now, so probably the latter.

I'd be thrilled if this was ready for a 2020 release so Chazelle joins the list of acclaimed filmmakers with new projects coming out next year, but I think we're gonna have to wait until 2021 to see it. Then again, his Netflix series The Eddy is probably due for 2020 so he'll have something to offer.

For any UK based users, this has a release date of October 11th according to the fairly reliable Launching Films release calendar.

Given that we're almost a year away from release, I'm hoping this adheres to the strategy of marketing campaigns for previous Nolan movies and we get a teaser in the next few weeks.

10 years after the infamous VMA incident we get another showdown between Taylor Swift and Beyonce, albeit much weirder.

This project appears to be moving so fast that it feels like a missed opportunity not to have it ready for December 2020. I know Cruella is slated there right now but it doesn't carry the same weight as a Christmas tentpole family release that TLM would. As it stands, this will probably take either the March or May 2021 slot reserved for a Disney live-action movie, which is in keeping with the usual 2 year-gap between cast announcements and the eventual release.

Just got out of this and thoroughly enjoyed it, Homecoming and this are neck-and-neck in terms of my Marvel rankings (middle tier but still very solid). I think had stronger comedic moments and utilized the majority of supporting characters better (with the exception of MJ, really liked her in this), but in my view FFH contained bigger stakes, a stronger emotional arc for Peter, and a villain whose abilities significantly render the action sequences more visually arresting than the ones in Homecoming. The post-credits scenes, as everyone else has said, are brilliant, probably the only ones in the MCU that have resolved some issues I had with the narrative. Talos getting the recognition he deserved. Possibly the best part of the actual movie was hearing Back in Black used so well to book-end the whole Infinity Saga.

The Wrap review apparently spoils elements of the ending just in case people are thinking of reading it. If anything else I'm loving the notices for Pugh, she's a star in the making (her turn in The Little Drummer Girl was superb) and hopefully 2019 is to her what 2011 was to Jessica Chastain and 2015 to Alicia Vikander.
