Yea we were all laughing about Ant-Men being Marvel's first bomb for like a full calendar year after the Wright fiasco

Most people here were pretty sold it was gonna do 200M. 

 

I told people they were crazy.

 

 

I was right

Justice League was fun but it felt like the Justice League movie they would have made in 1998.

Expectations here are sometimes irrelevant. Ant-man being a case in point.

Marvel Studios must be a fucking mad house right now.

They have 3 movies to be released in a span of 6 months.

All the VFX companies in the world are working 24/7 to finish these babies.

I believe Feige when it comes to Thanos. From the outset he seems like a potentially horrible villain, like a Ronan the Accuser on steroids. But if they're serious about truly giving him plenty of screen time then maybe they're serious about developing him like a proper villain should be. 

 

For example, everyone was raving about Hela in Ragnarok and then it turns out she's barely in it...these films should be more or less half hero, half villain. 

I guess the likes of Gollum and Koba were "generic villains" if CGI is the sole criteria for that.

I thought it would do like 120m at most, Ant-Man was really undepredicted

Stop spreading this Fake News, Chewy.

BvS made over $81 million on opening day and JLA is about to make half or less. That is about the most mindblowing collapse in box office history.
