I'm not a troll, brother. I liked the OT a lot, the prequels are okay IMO, I loved TFA and liked RO. I liked the TLJ, It's okay. But the movie has many flaws (I talked more about it in the spoilers thread). I really understand why some people are not liking it.

The Porg = My expectations Chewbacca = Star Wars: The Last Jedi

ehhh... You're wrong... MONOPOLY: (an organization or group that has) complete control of something, especially an area of business, so that others have noshare: ... exclusive ownership through legal privilege, command of supply, or concerted action; a commodity controlled by one party; exclusive possession or control ...

ALL this discussion is just pointless and time consuming now. Let's hope for the best! Bye!

TOP 10 - Highest grossing Fox films since 2000 domestically (not including Star Wars prequels). Avatar - $749.8M Deadpool - $363.1M Night at the Museum - $250.9M X-Men: The Last Stand - $234.4M X-Men: Days of Future Past - $233.9M Cast Away - $233.6M The Martian - $228.4M Logan - $226.3M Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel ($219.6M) Alvin and the Chipmunks ($217.3M)

I was not talking about you. I said "I've never seen much of a complaint about it here" and well, that's just the damn truth. I would never paint Disney as victim. Actually I said "I'm not saying this deal is a good thing (personally I'm thinking it's not). But if Fox wanted to sell the studios, well, I'm okay with Disney buying them, they're better than Comcast. I'm here just pointing out the hypocrisy here, the bias against Disney and looking at the big picture, where ALL the entertainment market is following."

If Time Warner, world's third largest entertainment company, was the one buying Fox, o lot of people would be laughing and enjoying it here. By the way, AT&T, largest pay-TV company in the world, is trying to buy Time Warner, world's third largest entertainment company, And I've never seen much of a complaint about it here. Oh! Almost forget, AT&T and Comcast, the largest broadcasting and cable television company in the world, are really trying to repeal the net neutrality rules. Good guys. But you know, Disney is THE EVIL EMPIRE. PS: I'm not saying this deal is a good thing (personally I'm thinking it's not). But if Fox wanted to sell the studios, well, I'm okay with Disney buying them, they're better than Comcast. I'm here just pointing out the hypocrisy here, the bias against Disney and looking at the big picture, where ALL the entertainment market is following.

The last ones were good. Ego Vulture Hela Grandmaster (kinda of Villain) All good, well written villains, with good actors playing them. I liked Zemo too. Very subtle, with very good acting, cool background and some really surprising things. They're better than all the comic book villains in other movies recently. And I think Black Panther and Infinity War will have pretty good villains too.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Fuck Spider-Man, Haha!

I'm mixed. Is it good for the MCU and Marvel Characters? yeah, probably. But it's just a small part in a big deal like that. Maybe Disney could make a really great streaming service, even better than Netflix. Who knows. I think streaming is the future of content creation. But OVERALL I think it's bad to the movie business as a whole now.

I really think Disney will buy the Spider-Man rights anytime soon.

I hope so.

I think Drew Goddard is the one to blame here. He was writing a Sinister Six movie and BOOM! Spider-Man is coming to the MCU! Sinister Six Cancelled. He is writing a X-Focer movie and BOOM! X-Men are coming to the MCU! X-Force (maybe) Cancelled. lol Poor (rich) guy...

Alien - Dead franchise. I did not expect to see a new movie in the next decade, either with Fox or any other Studio. BTW, Fox was the studio that did most shit in this franchise. Practically destroying it. Apes - Just finished a new trilogy in 2017, the third movie doing 30% less money than the second (DOM and OS) and 17% less money (DOM) than the first movie, a movie with a way smaller budget from 6 years ago, unadjusted. Even with great reviews. It's a disappointment, so I no longer expected to see a new trilogy any time soon. Clearly it's a franchise that has tired the general audiences. Predator - Another dead franchise. Yeah, I know there's a reboot hapenning, but all the last movies were bad and failures. Again, Fox was the studio that did most shit in this franchise. Practically destroying it. Kingsman: Even now there is no movement to make a trilogy. But so far the movies have made some profit. It may be possible, but it depends on many circumstances. It’s a shame what Fox has done with the X-Men franchise (5 good movies, but also 5 bad movies, some really bad, And even in the good movies, just Wolverine in the front, extremely poorly represented female characters, horrible chronology, Magneto almost as the only villaiin), the Fantastic Four (three really bad movies), Daredevil and Elektra. Gambit? Multiple Men? Pff.. The real problems here are the number of feature films that will be made, Fox Searchlight and the amount of power with just one studio. Superhero Genre will be fine.

Yup. That's (unfortunately) true. And J.K. Rowling for not putting POC forward (only minor, minor characters). PS - A HP Broadway Show, directed by someone else, written with someone else and casted by someone else didn't count as her credit.

Black Panther has more strong POC characters, women and men, than all the other 2018 blockbusters all together.

I was talking about something new to the MCU's table. But yeah some superhero movies brought some new things to the table - and new ways to do old things - including some MCU movies. I said some things in my previous comment, if you read it.

Black Widow is just a spy and wouldn't bring anything new to the table, that's why they didn't make her movie before. GOTG - New galaxy, Space Opera, sci-fi fantasy. Ant-Man - Quantum Realm, Heist Movie, mentor/pupil and fathers/daughters story. Doctor Srange - Multiverse, Sorcerers, new magic concepts. Black Panther - One of a kind character [african warrior, king and hero], one of a kind background [advanced african civilization, afrofuturism]. A Black Widow isn't a really iconic different character, her movie movie would be just a spy movie, something like 'Captain America - The Winter Soldier', well, that's why she's basically the co-protagonist of that movie. Her movie would not cause some real impact, would be just another Salt, Colombiana, Atomic Blonde. That's why they didn't make her movie before and I fail to understand how you guys don't see it. 1 - And? Schedules, son. WB is announcing many Wonder Woman movies in the last 20 years. 2 - Her character is extremely important in the first movie and not being the Wasp is an important part of all the plot ans themes for that movie. I don't get your point, really. 3 - Ms Marvel? Just a female counterpart to Captain Marvel, I'm glad they didn't do that. Turning Carol Danvers into THE Captain Marvel was what made her iconic, important and a symbol for women and for feminism. It was what brought new concepts to the character, making her really interesting. I'm a comic book reader since childhood and compare the importance that Carol Danvers as Ms Marvel with her as Captain Marvel is ridiculous. 4 - Well, yeah, Black Panther deserves all the praise. But Black Widow, Scarlet Witch, Peggy Carter, Hope van Dyne, Gamora, Nebula, Ayesha, Mantis, Valkyrie, Hela, The Ancient One, Christine Palmer, Sharon Carter, Michelle Jones, May Parker, Pepper Potts, Maria Hill, etc. are treated in very respectul ways (and I'm sure Okoye, Nakia, Ayo, Ramonda and Shuri will be too, soon). AH! Jesssica Jones, Elektra, karen Page, Claire Temple, Daisy/Quake, Melinda May, Jemma Simmons, Colleen Wing, Misty Knight, etc. TV side.

Both, Wonder Woman and Captain Marvel, were announced on October 2014. But, In May 2013, the The Hollywood Reporter reported that Marvel Studios has a script for a Ms. Marvel feature. In August 2014, Kevin Feige revealed that Captain Marvel is a character the film studio would like to explore. In October 2014, the movie was announced as part of their upcoming slate of films. Also, [Only] In July 2012 [so, after the first Avengers], Carol Danvers, the longtime super-heroine known as Ms. Marvel, assumed the mantle of Captain Marvel in an ongoing series written by Kelly Sue DeConnick with art by Dexter Soy. "They get zero praise from me." Oh, too bad. Next year we have 'Black Panther', with many great black women, scientist, warriors, queen, of all ages. 'Infinity War', with many great female characters. And 'Ant-Man and The Wasp', the first female Marvel superhero to have equal billing with her male counterpart in an MCU film. And, after those, 'Captain Marvel', "the most powerful MCU character", just 7 years after starting to become an iconic female character in the comic books.

Cool. Are you from Natal?
