And these are desperation hail Mary's and are not sustainable. It's gimmicks. On Reddit and online, Deadpool & Wolverine is being treated like it's a shit film that is barely any good. It has an A CinemaScore and is about to break so many July records. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Marston Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 Yeah this is definitely exciting people and it will cause the Avengers movies to be huge. However it is funny that bringing back this or that actor is the remaining main draw of the MCU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does, internet echo chambers like Reddit are not representative of GA interest. We won’t know how interested the GA is in this for a while.

"Reaction on reddit seems largely positive" "To me it seems mixed" "Well they don't get it they think D&W is bad anyway" Not sure if you see where I'm going here but whether they are right or not doesn't exactly matter to what that guy said. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grey ghost Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 43 minutes ago, RealLyre said: I like RDJ as a villain (he was great in Oppy) but I wonder how will other characters react when they realize he looks like Tony Stark? They'd probably make a joke about him being a variant or something or they'd have Doom with his mask on most of the time (which is how he usually goes anyway). Not only does Doom hide his face he modifies his voice as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point was that people online are tearing the choice apart, but we're seeing how little the internet commentariat matters with Deadpool & Wolverine. Every year that passes, the internet and reality become more and more disparate. And to the point that a lot of shit films make money, Deadpool & Wolverine has a 3.8 on Letterboxd. The vast majority of people don't think it's shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna make for awkward home market viewing with the constant pauses for applause. I say this as someone that liked no way home and MoM. The Lion King remake got an A cinemascore, made 1.6B and its absolutely horrible. Edited July 28 by Dominic Draper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeeSoh Posted July 28 Author Share Posted July 28 Just a reminder that we have a thread for Avengers: Doomsday where these conversations can continue, ONCE this thread is locked in a day or 2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THUNDER BIRD Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 This announcement gives some bump to Avengers 5 which was looking listless before But this does not solve the core issue of MCU..... Audience not connecting to their new heroes. If they mess up Fantastic Four, then it'll be bad, RDJ or not. As farvas I'm concerned, it's the same to me, RDJ back, eh, the heroes are just uninteresting. Let's see what they do with Fantastic Four.

thajdikt Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 Love this. Way more interesting than just brining him back as Iron Man. That said, I really hope they explore how our heroes; especially those that had a connection to Tony react to seeing “him” being the bad guy. Especially for Spider-Man. Also the guy that saved the whole universe, being the complete opposite is cool af. They actually can do some really cool interesting things with this storywise if they bother. Now they need to make sure it’s good. This is how you follow up Endgame. This is how you top Thanos (nothing will ever top him) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's because they've chopped d and change, it's clear You think they planned this from beginning, up untill 1 year back, they were full steam ahead with Kang, now it's Doomsday. Directors and writers of Avengers movies have changed recently, they've got castings. Now There will be X Men era, apparently according to Feige, X Men era started after D&W. There is no set future at this point, they are making it up as they go along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
