  1. Boys, if I can refrain from posting at all because apparently me saying Chris Evans is a spoiler ( lolol @Porthos and I couldn't talk for a week cause of this) , you all can put vague references under spoiler tags. Considering this a blanket warning. Thank you.

  3. The moderation warning was to not start a Fan War. The past four pages feels more like Thanksgiving in fighting than anything else. Moreover, that’s usually what happens in weekends threads when we go for a couple hours without numbers. People get a little bit off topic. As long as no one is insulting each other, I am inclined to let it go.

  9. Anyone spoilers Knives Out and: We also have a Thread in the Reviews Section that allows Spoilers, for people who want to talk about it in more spoilery details.
  10. No one has claimed it. I was gonna do a Directors March Madness Bracket, but if you want to do it, go for it.
  11. WEEKEND CHALLENGE @Claire of Themyscira @DAJK @JJ-8 @Keanu @PanaMovie @Thanos Legion @ZeeSoh ascend two flights of escalators to the Lincoln Square 13 IMAX Lobby. They see an old friend waiting for them: Kevin Feige, in his trademark blazer and Ms Marvel hat, aimlessly picks at his popcorn. Cap and @SLAM! walk up to side on both of his side. He offers SLAM! some popcorn. SLAM! accepts. CONFESSIONAL: PANAMOVIE: We didn't predict a Marvel movie this week. DAJK: No Marty. Boo. ZEESOH: Yeah, this won't end well. SLAM!: Welcome, Survivors, to your Weekend Immunity Challenge. This week we're partaking in a true Survivor Classic: The Endurance Test. How badly do you want it. CLAIRE: Wait. You can't be serious. ZEESOH: It'd take like two days to watch every Marvel Movie. THANOS: It'd take 43 hours and 51 minutes. SLAM and Cap nod at the Survivors, and then at back to Feige. CAP: Kevin, take it away. FEIGE: Even as a kid, I was aware of the power of storytelling. It was amazing that I could dive into a world that was nothing like my own, and I could relate to it, and I could learn from it; that I could be entered by it, and aspire to it. For me movies were the ultimate expression of emotional, captivating storytelling. Seeing stories living and breathing on the big screen was very powerful as a kid. And it is still is today. A big giant screen in a room full of people. CAP: That is exactly what we're going to do today. Behind those doors is the Lincoln Square 13 IMAX. It is the largest IMAX screen in the country standing at sixty feet tall and one hundred feet wide, and fully equipped with a 4K Laser projector and surround sound. I have the privilege of watching Avengers: Endgame here Opening Weekend. It changed my life. SLAM!: Not what we're watching today, though. FEIGE: Today, thanks to our friends at Disney, I bring digitally remastered copies of all the Disney Princess Movies. Your challenge, if you want to call it that, is to marathon all twelve movies. CAP: I SO EXCITED! All of the Survivors look unimpressed. CONFESSIONAL: PANAMOVIE: Whenever she's excited, that's never a good thing. They all still look so unimpressed. JJ-8: That's it? We just have to watch a bunch of Disney movies? CONFESSIONAL: ZEESOH: [Glares at the Camera] JJ8: This is way too easy. SLAM! and Cap burst out laughing. CONFESSIONAL: JJ8: And there it is. SLAM!: If only. You will enter the theater. You will pick a seat. That will be your seat for the entire Marathon. You will turn to the screen. Once you have looked at the screen, you can not look away for more than thirty seconds. You turn away -- CAP: You're out. SLAM!: You close your eyes for more than thirty seconds -- FEIGE You're out. SLAM!: You fall asleep -- CAP: You're out. SLAM!: You can get up and walk around, but you MUST return to your seat, and you CAN NOT take your ideas off the screen, or -- FEIGE: You're out! SLAM!: OH, and obviously you can not go to the bathroom. CAP: All right, everyone. Let's go on in. SLAM!: [to Feige] Will you join us? Feige looks at this phone. FEIGE: For a bit. I have about two hours before I meet Marty for Frozen at the St. James. The Survivors file into the theater and pick their seats. DAJK goes up to the third row from the back, left off center, knowing those are the best seats. Claire and ZeeSoh follow, seating in the row before a couple seats away. Keanu and Thanos head right to the top row, center, back. Only Thanos' head is too big and the seats are too small. They have to move to the Handicap area in the back. JJ-8 and PanaMovie takes a sit down center in the middle. SLAM!, Cap, and Feige take their seats near the back on the opposite side of the Theater to Keanu and Thanos. SLAM! opens out his iPad, which has cameras on all of the contestants. The lights go dark. Everyone makes it through Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs without incident. As the credits role, SLAM! asks if everyone's dong fine. Without any pause, the next movie starts. PANAMOVIE: [without take his eyes away] This isn't Cinderella? CAP: Cinderella's an Official Princess. They don't say what version. CLAIRE: YESSSSS. It's not the 1950 version, but the iconic 1997 Brandy Version. Everyone's so amazed by the glory on the screen they all last through the movie. CONFESSIONAL: CLAIRE: It's sooooo good. DAJK: This is way too easy. Feige slips out as they start: CONFESSIONAL: PANAMOVIE: Why are we skipping Sleeping Beauty? THANOS: This is Prince Phillip Erasure. Everyone's seems to be digging it, when Claire gets an idea. CLAIRE: [loudly, singing intentionally off key] WHAT WOULD I GIVE TO LIVE WHERE YOU ARE? KEANU: [shouting without lookin from the screen] Claire! CLAIRE: WHAT WOULD I PAY TO STAY HERE BESIDE YOUUUU? ZEESOH: [shouting without lookin from the screen] Scuttle isn't in this one! CLAIRE: WHAT WOULD I DO TO SEE YOU SMILING AT MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE?!?!?!?!! DAJK: [shouting without looking from the screen] Claire, it won't work! CLAIRE: WHERE WOULD WE WALK? JJ8: CLAIRE! CLAIRE: WHERE WOULD WE RUN? JJ8: STOP IT!! CLAIRE: IF WE COULD STAY ALL DAY IN THE SUUUUN? PanaMovie covers his ears but keeps looking at the screen. CLAIRE: JUST YOU AND MEEEEE, AND I COULD BEEEEE JJ8 snaps and turns back to Claire. JJ8: SHUT UP. Claire does, smugly blowing JJ8 a kiss. Only -- JJ8: She's looking at me! CLAIRE: I'm looking at the screen, you're down screen! JJ8: No, no, you looked at me. You're out too! CLAIRE: I haven't taken my eyes off the screen! SLAM! pulls up his iPad to review the tapes. SLAM!: I'm sorry, JJ8 is right. You looked away for :40 seconds, :10 seconds longer than allowed. You're out! They both walk out of the theater, bickering. JJ8: HA! CLAIRE: Garbage! JJ8: This is what you get for trying to ruin the Best Song Of All Time. CLAIRE: Oh, please, it's not Reflections. JJ8 opts to leave the theater for the concession stand. Peace Out. He doesn't go back for the rest of the film. He does return to watch SLAM! walk down in the front of the theater. SLAM!: All right, time to bargain. Any of you think you are safe? You can stay and watch out next movie, or you have this. He holds up a ticket to an Advanced Screening of Knives Out. SLAM!: You can watch Cap lose her mind over Chris Evans in a sweater or watch: Without so much of a thought, Keanu gets up and starts walking down the stairs. Out of her pocket she takes a Candy Apple and eats it. THANOS: What? Keanu? KEANU: The animals don't talk in this, and that's lame. Keanu takes the ticket out of SLAM!'s hand. CONFESSIONAL: KEANU: I mean, it's Chris Evans. KEANU: Thank you! Pocahontas stops for: CONFESSIONAL: DAJK: We're not watching them in order. She's just torturing us. Where's Belle? THANOS: I'm still confused on how this is a Challenge. ZEESOH: We dodged a huge bullet with Pocahontas. Rest will be easy breezy. PANAMOVIE: I hope they show Beauty and the Beast next. The Survivors have been staring at the screen for five hours and thirty-five minutes. DAJK: Please show Beauty and the Beast. THANOS: Does it have to be a Princess? Can we watch Frozen? ZEESOH: Mulan. Show Mulan! PANAMOVIE: I vote for Brave! ZEESOH: Or Aladdin! The movie begins: DAJK: Aw, C'MON! She's not even a Disney Princess! SLAM!: She is now! DAJK: You can't be serious! SLAM!: Praise Corporate Consolation! Soon Anastasia will get a Live-Action Reboot, and Merch, and -- DAJK: Nope. I'm out! DAJK gets up from his seat. He takes out his Candy Apple. DAJK: This should be enough to get me through. I'm done! SLAM! looks at DAJK. DAJK pales. He looks back to the other three. SLAM! stops the movie and suddenly starts: EVERYONE: YAY! To Celebate, Thanos, PanaMovie, and ZeeSoh all takes out Candy Apples. The remaining three get through Beauty and the Beast without incident. They've now been staring at the screen for eleven hours. Cap strolls back in. CAP: How's everyone doing? THANOS: I can do this all day. CAP: That's my line. SLAM!: We have just three players left. Anyone ready to tap out? Thanos and ZeeSoh eat another Candy Apple. THANOS AND ZEESOH: Nope. The next movie begins. Before the three remaining Survivors can say anything: CAP: We're ignoring this technicality. Queen or Princess. They are still the Royals of Our Heart. PanaMovie, without taking his eyes off the screen, he gets up to pace the row. When he tries to return back to his seat, he finds he can't. DAJK has snuck back in and taken his place. PanaMovie jumps when he sits on DAJK, and looks away from the screen at him. DAJK smirks. SLAM!: Oh No! PanaMovie's now in last place! ZeeSoh pops his third candy apple of the night. He knows he just needs to outlast Thanos. Thanos, though, is starting to feel strange. There's something deep inside him that's yearning to break out. He hears a voice calling. The more he watches the movie, the more he feels compelled by what he sees. Was Feige right? Is he learning from Anna? Is he aspiring to be Elsa? Is he ready to let it all go? There's a BLAST in the theater. Thanos disappears. ZeeSoh doesn't take his eyes off the screen. SLAM!: I'm sorry, PanaMovie. That means you are the next person eliminated from the game and the second member of our Jury. PanaMovie nods. He comes up and shakes SLAM! and Cap's hands. PANAMOVIE: It has been an honor. And now, I need to sleep. PanaMovie waves to everyone as he exists. They wave back. KEANU: But what? Where is Thanos? Everyone turns to hear rushing from the row where Thanos sat. They all run up to investigate. SLAM!: Oh. CAP: This will all make sense when I am older.
