Guys, this isn’t the politics/news thread. This is for weekend numbers and box office.    It is awful what happened in New Zealand, but this isn’t the place to discuss it.

EXCLUSIVE: Redemption and second chances have long been superhero movie staples, and today it looks like life has imitated art. I’ve learned that Disney has reinstated James Gunn as the writer-director of Guardians of the Galaxy 3, and I’ve confirmed it with Marvel and Gunn’s camp.

...

Why the change of heart? After the firing, Walt Disney Studios president Alan Hornmet with Gunn on multiple occasions to discuss the situation. Persuaded by Gunn’s public apology and his handling of the situation after, Horn decided to reverse course and reinstate Gunn.

...

Marvel Studios has agreed to commence production on Guardians of the Galaxy 3 after Gunn completes Suicide Squad 2.

lmao @ James Gunn being rehired. This is a good development, but I give it 3 hours for Roseanne to be brought up.

Hey Han what is your prediction of Endgame?

Lol. That guy Posobiec is the one that dug up Gunn's past tweet. Now Posobiec is on the CM hate train, always tweeting something negative about CM. I guess this is Disney's revenge, "you hate Gunn so much, right? Guess what, we'll hire him back".

I don't think Disney or Marvel cares about his feelings. This was a good call for that movies box office prospects of profitable take.

Between the Gunn news and the likely just fine CM weekend 2 drop, going to be a certain... segment of the Internet very unhappy.  😋

We need a ??? that does not add to community reactions but is meant for not questioning the post, but telling the poster something is unclear

and a face that says 'Schadenfreude'

I'm very happy that Gunn is back. Whatever things he may have said in the past, he regrets it and he is matured now so when Disney fired him, I felt sad. Thanks Disney for giving Gunn 2nd chance:bravo:

That's a pity, Will Smith was one of the few vaguely likeable human presences in that movie. 

 

Anyway, really happy to see Gunn reinstated.

Well, they cared enough that they fired Gunn over the tweets that the guy dug up. Anyway, I just said that revenge thing in jest. Not to be taken seriously. Lol😉

Quote

Captain Marvel opened with $153.43 million last weekend. How well it holds up this weekend will determine whether the film is merely a monster hit or something special. For example, Black Panther fell just 45% during its second weekend of release and it became a cultural event. On the other extreme, Batman v Superman plummeted 69% during its second weekend of release and it spelled the end of the grimdark version of the D.C.E.U. Captain Marvel will finish somewhere in-between. A sophomore stint drop-off of at least 50% is practically guaranteed, while I don’t think it will fall more than 60%, but it will finish on the low end of expectations. It’s a prequel and an origin story, so it doesn’t have as much replay value as Black Panther, for example. I’m going with a prediction of $65 million, which would lift its running tally past $250 million early on Sunday morning, putting it ahead of seven previous MCU releases.
