Legion Again

MHA will do very poorly compared to the 2019 entry. I have heard that the two most recent seasons have been received poorly, that may be playing a role. Or the much great competition. … or maybe the target audience is being forced to stay at home by their parents until they can get those newly approved shots Looks like I used up all my forecasting mojo for the month on Dune 2nd fri, and that is why Eternals will do 70% of my hopes. Sorry y’all

Looks like NWH previews over other 3 MCU previews combined is a go

China stole 30M and we stole other 60M. It’s good to be a superpower

We should end with 238 fresh and 162 rotten. So it is written.

An ambitious superhero epic that strains slightly more often than it soars, Eternals takes the MCU in confounding -- and occasionally intriguing -- new directions

Why would we need movie 26 to take this away? Seems pretty clear from the first 25.

15-40, boy that is a range

The Halloween weekend thread was two weekends ago though 🤔

This peludo guy, might be on to something.

Congratulations, that straw man is well and truly beaten to death.

That’s part of my sig

Eh, it’s easy to make money with fewer screens if demand is there for high occupancy, in which case you gain more screens back. It’s a very smooth system for the most part, much prefer it to Triassic screen booking system in DOM.

Thank Bast that Coogler dodged that Judas win…

Twitter is an unlimited supply of crazies. Sometimes it’s good for a chuckle but you’ve gotta beware the vortex

Comments about critic conspiracies in this thread: like half a dozen Critic conspiracies in this thread:… 0 🤦‍♂️

I didn’t want to say anything but did notice this a while ago. Pretty unfortunate coincidence. Mulan was another blockbuster including on those sorts of year of woman director articles 😆

Doubt New gods factored into things at all, and “severely miscalculated” is… well… might want to wait for the movie to come out.

Is this a typo of 10 or something?

If he hasn’t bonded with dozens of baby sandworms then I am afraid he lacks the power to guide us down the golden path

Not really sure what to do with this post. You say it rings to you as “baseless” then that you don’t want to hear any evidence 😂 I’m fine not discussing it further but this feels like a weird way to go about that.

Chloe’s pitch was accepted way before Nomadland was even shot, they just liked The Rider and her pitch. I think imbrugia does have a bit of a point. The critic reception seems pretty clear now, I would wait for audience before making any further pronouncements. This could get a straight up A for instance (not modal outcome, but within plausible range) in which case a lot of these takes will look extremely premature to say the least.

No need to be hasty, let’s let it get to 59.6, live a little dangerously here

Sure. I wouldn’t expect much above 8 though.

If the CinemaScope is A- (or even B+) I don’t really think this will change any plans much. The crossovers, spin-offs, cameo appearances model is good for revitalizing the characters and the sequel anyway. Most of the stuff that you might think up to do as a reaction to a mixed first entry is stuff they were likely planning to do already.
