Not just any rapist. A rapist of children. His b.o. analysis is always a mess, too.

Scott Mendelson's avatar looks like he could play the next Joker. He also looks like more of a young Hannibal Lecter in that one picture than Gaspard Ulliel did in Hannibal Rising.

I like Mendelson's historical stuff, and his participation in commentaries on Out Now with Aaron & Abe, but his male-feminist SJW speechifying is getting more and more on my nerves. I had the misfortune of accidentally reading his comments on how

in his view, they spent the entirety of Ant-Man trying and failing to justify why Evangeline Lilly couldn't just put on the suit and they had to get a white guy

and I couldn't stop thinking about it during the movie. If I hadn't read that, I would never have even thought of it.

Ant Man Bombed, fire Kevin Feige

Yeah it bombed, I predicted $70m for this.

Ant-Man opening within a stone's throw of Green Lantern.

Please remove the word actual from the title.

[Asyulus]

Any-Man opening within a stone's throw of Green Lantern.

Any-Man?

[WrathOfHan]

And to think I was predicting 86M for this until a few days ago 

[Truckasaurus]

Quite underwhelming for Ant-Man, might not do $60m OW.

 

But I thought U$70M OW was a done deal for Ant-Man and that Gitesh Pandya's early estimates in the high 50's were "terrible"? 

[Asyulus]

Please remove the word actual from the title.

Agreed, this is just estimates.

So what happened to the "accurate" 65 M?

[Chaz]

Any-Man?

I would bottom for any-man

[Asyulus]

I hope actuals go up from Antman.

R.I.P Marvel

It's weird - last year, it was "Marvel can propel anything to success, they're the new Pixar", and in 2015 they seem to be going into a "Pixar c. 2011-13" phase (at least in terms of Internet perception). So I guess they ARE the new Pixar.

Anybody wanna take bets on what will be their Inside Out "Marvel is back" film?

Becomes inaccurate,

The Dark Knight is 3 movies. Marvel is about 12 now.

The Dark Knignt was on AMC last night.

Wait. Didn't you predict 280m for it? How is that possible with 70m. I thought you predicted 100m OW for this?

Marvel has always been hit or miss tho. They didn't start with a track record as strong as Pixar.
