Favorite MCU characters: 1)Cap 2)Cassie Would not be shocked if I had to switch that up in a decade. Also, I feel having no real “villain” worked pretty well. Much better than, say, Yellowjacket. The best way to not have your villain pale in comparison to Thanos is to sidestep the issue entirely, and I think it works for the story they wanted to tell, which was really about families (Scott+Hope+Cassie, Scott+Cassie+Maggie+Jim, Scott+Luis+Dave+Kurt, Bill+Ava, and of course Hope+Hank+Janet+Scott). Very heartwarming... until, y’know.

Wow, I was expecting this to be well-done B tier filler like the first Ant-Man, but it was actually really great with a ton of well executed emotional and humorous beats. I don’t think it cracks IW, TWS, CW, IM1, GOTG1 tier for me, but at the moment I’d put it up there with Ragnarok and BP in tier 1.5. And if you told me when BP came out that it might be my third favorite MCU film this year I’d have called you a maniac. Also, huge reaction from the crowd at the first post-credits.

Nearing 10 points behind I2+FK (actually is exactly 10.0 behind atm lol), think it will get there in maybe 2 more hours. If it can snag a 12.5 preview or so than 100 will still be in play. Holiday+First Purge is make compe hard, but I think it should be 10-13 or so. -

Not familiar with this “Shorltand” character. Any relation to Cate Shortland? -

Some AM&tW stuff will play a very important role in A4, but it seems clear that they're deliberately trying to market this as more of a stand alone palette cleanser. -

Hopefully Ant-Man will be walk-up driven. Worked out for FK, not so much for Solo, realistically a low hype Marvel property should be somewhere in between. -

I think people often conflate a lot of people thinking there’s a chance of a 100M weekend with a lot of people thinking that 100M is likely/the bar for success. The former has has been apparent for months. The latter has never existed. -

Really funny to see I2, FK and DP2 all clustered in the same 31k window, when in the US they were spaced in increments of around 25M. -
FK is on the low end of medium domestically and WW in my opinion. It would have needed to be below 350 to be really dissapointing, and it won't. WW it would have needed to be below 1.1 or so to be really dissapointing, and it won't. Still, of direct sequels to 1.4B+ grossers (AoU, IW, TLJ, F8, FK) it will probably come in as the lowest. Nobodies heads will roll, nothing is being cancelled, it isn't a bunch below expectations -- it's just that the expectations it is meeting were of having a big drop.
