Now getting upset about websites reporting news? MCU fans starting to look like DC fans circa 2016.

This is how it starts. The fever, the rage, the feeling of powerlessness that turns good posters into fan boys.

It's down to 62%, at one point it had climbed to 75%. So its dropped 13% in about 50 or so reviews. I'd be shocked if it doesnt go rotten.

They already have an out and out box office flop. The Incredible Hulk.

As someone who hadnt read the book and hadnt seen Lynch version. I hated this, and it took a lot of will power not to walk out. The movie is 90% the color brown. I couldn't care less about any of the characters, the lore and world seems so muddled and vague I am not sure what I am supposed to even care about it. It's just lifeless and sterile and the supposed spectacle was flat and not engaging.

Looks awful. I'm not sure where he looked more miscast, this or Cherry but Holland is not a good lead actor. The fact Naughty Dog pretty much washed their hands of this film says enough.

⁹I enjoyed it. I am going to have dig in to see what the crux of the complaints are because this movie seems very divisive and watching I didnt understand why.

Have you taken a look at rocks box office career before joining the franchise? Its like night and day after joining the franchise. Seeing Diesel and Rock together was one of the main draws of five, along with it being the best film in the franchise. Its not like rock was who he is now when he joined. He was releasing duds like Faster. Fast Four, pre rock joining, was a higher grossing film than any film rock had made in his career prior to joining the franchise. Seems to me like rock wanted control of the franchise and took his shot. That's why he made this public. He has the personality of a politician and moves like one. With Paul gone he saw an opportunity.

Didnt care for this much. There was a lot of disapproval vocally from my audience for the ending as well. It just felt like it could have been a tight enjoyable movie at like 2 hours, but instead it's an almost 3 hour long slog that I felt every single minute of. I'm still left with only really loving casino royale, while the rest of the Craig films were ranged from only okay to bad for me.

Funny enough the tom cruise mummy movie had a game. And it was actually pretty damn good. It was a 2D metroidvania esque shoot em up. Also, best video game movie tie in, chronicles of riddick. Game was so good.

He may have been correct about that but he also went for months about how it was going to be awful and an event for how bad it was etc etc. And then it comes out and gets pretty good reviews and found an audience that loved it and even with a run of the mill cinemascore that was uneventful. People were pretty convinced the movie was going to be a train wreck solely because of him.

I think it looks decent! In a huge fan of the games and enjoy the milla movies for what they are. I'll be there opening weekend.

Yeah it makes no sense to have not had this in front of venom

I loved 47 meters down just for having the sheer audacity to go with that ending. Strangers prey at night was fun as well. Other 2 were ehhh

Marvel is the brand, not the individual heros at this point.

Does venom have a china release date? Will it get one?

I remember critics complaining about the Reggie scene. Which is an absolutely hysterical scene and killed with audiences. Critics are absolutely awful at judging comedy and horror and always have been.

Resdeient evil has to be getting delayed or dumped on a streaming service at this point.

I mean he never was wrong. Venom has always been insanely popular. Mostly because of his design tbh. One of the goat comic book looks.

I'm sure we will find out. But which spidey will he fight 🤔

They could have done both though. Really embrace that multi verse aspect.

We have different definitions of doing the right thing then. Alienating your own fan base and producing 3 flops in a row doesnt sound too appealing for a movie studio. But between creative talent and audiences , alienating people seem to be WB's strength nowadays. And personally I hope Gunn never gets his hands on another DC IP.

They didnt show up to this one because it basically disregarded the first film and was basically a reboot with not much in common. How was this film at all appealing to the younger audience like the first film was? So not only do you have the portion of the audience that hated the first film not showing up, but you also dont have the audience that did like the first film not showing up because it looks nothing like the first. It was a film that basically looked appealing to nobody. Which is why it did so, so poorly. I'd say JL2017 has the same issue where it was a film that appealed to nobody. People that hated BVS hated it, and the Snyder cultists hated it too.

This is totally fair, and there is no doubt Max effected it. Who knows what Venom does without it being exclusive.

Or, maybe BOP and TSS suffered because they ripped Harley away from Joker and people arent interested in Harley like that and the films just werent appealing on their own. Maybe, the films failed because of the films themselves. It's not like WW or Aquaman suffered from being in BVS or JL. Instead of blaming everything else, maybe it's just that WB panicked and instead of working with what they had they ignored the reasons the films were popular in the first place and now theyve had 3 box office duds in a row to show for it.
