I'm probably gonna see Spider-verse this weekend, the sad part is that is completely dubbed so I'm gonna miss Nick Cage's beauty. :smith: Hopefully they use the same guy who always dubs him in Spanish.

I believe it was explicitly to avoid harming Mary Poppins. Venom was able to make a huge pile by releasing in October when there wasn't really anything for it to compete with. That's probably where and when Disney should have aimed to put Solo.

I mean, what else did they have out then? That Nutcracker movie?

It also had a lot of word to mouth recommendations among the online LBGTQ+ community, the fun part is that the people managing the online marketing realized that and went with it. Just as a note, everyone who liked it is aware is a bad movie...yet we all had fun. I'm hopeful they keep the buddy cop parts of the movie which were the best ones.

As a side note, it's hilarious that in my country it lasted longer in cinemas than the Freddy Mercury movie and Fantastic beasts. I guess it had a constant stream of viewers.

My mother-in-law thought Hot Tub Time Machine was great.

On the flip side, my father-in-law, who's a rough-looking, motorcycle-repairing, moonlights-as-a-bar bouncer son-of-a-bitch loves watching the Harry Potter films whenever they're on Freeform (they're always on Freeform).

[Edit: oh yeah, don't underestimate Ryan Reynolds as part of the reason older women like Deadpool. Pretty much every yard sale I went to last year that was run by a 60-year-old woman had a stack of, like, every movie Reynolds has ever been in (I assume they were selling the DVDs because they'd upgraded to Blu-Rays).]

My mom LOVED Rambo. Also, she is still a huge fan of war movies. And my dad was in to horror and sci-fi. They still enjoy that, it would be stupid thinking they dont anymore.

I went to see it, and...the movie was good. And so I am more confused about why someone would waste so much time hating so hard on it. But anyway, I'm not here to talk about chuds, let's talk about how I need more Skrulls in my life. They were so loving fun! (during the scenes were they had to be fun) Can I get at least a mini series about Skrulls living in Earth? Please Marvel people?

The Marvel de-aging CGI was scary good. After a while I completely forgot Samuel L. Jackson and Clark Gregg are like 30 years older than they appear in the movie.
Oh yeah, they really made it better and it doesn't look odd at all like the first time they used it on Iron Man. At least they were smart in Iron Man so they could wave it as a "it was a computer generated scenario created by Tony" if people started to complain about how fake it looked.

Here? Awesome. I wouldn't be surprised if they win something just because of that.

Additional Captain marvel thoughts: I'll eat crow about my early grumblings regarding Captain Marvel's costume looking a bit too generic; when it's on fire with the helm/mohawk it looked rad as gently caress, BUT it would have looked even more baller with a sash :haw: That was only other takeaway.

Aside from that, have to say that the movie is right up there with Black Panther in having some of the most bland, uninspired action. Wish they did more interesting stuff with Carol's powers; it was a display of power that felt fairly generic despite having cool CG effects. Marvel needs to hire better second units to shoot their action stuff to make heroes feel properly epic imo. And I agree with the other goons that feel No Doubt's "Just a Girl" was a bad choice for that one particular fight scene. The tempo of that fight felt way off because of the song.

[edit] And the 2nd act or so is kind of a slog until Talos shows up.

I would had put a Smashing Pumpkins song in that scene :colbert: But that's my 90's teen self speaking. Yes, I had a "omg" moment when the Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness poster showed up, but then I got a bit sad because Billy is nowadays a big bad weirdo

I watched it on IMAX and it was my first time seeing anything in 3D. It was good, but I left the theater with a mild headache. Is this normal? I still kind of have one (even after having an 8-hour sleep), so maybe it's just regular dehydration.

It might not be related but some people can't handle 3D, for whatever reason I haven't looked up for. I have a sister that gets headaches and a bit dizzy whenever she goes to see a 3D movie, so we usually avoid them.

That one got quite a few cheers where I was. That and the Stan Lee intro.



Everyone, me included, did a loud "Aaaawww" when Stan Lee made his cameo. It's sweet that even people who aren't hardcore comic book fans have a soft spot for the old man.

I liked the loading screen joke. "What's happening?"

Everyone in my screening was old enough to remember that. The joke got doubled because moments later the movie started buffering out of nowhere. We had like 5 minutes of people making "They haven't paid the internet service!/They should change to Infinitum! (A Mexican provider)/That's what you get from buying the pirated CD" jokes.

I also made everyone laugh because I snorted-laughed really loud during the part were Fury gets scanned, I already had a bit of an idea what the joke was gonna be, it was too obvious, so I couldn't help it but laugh before it landed, I just had fun.

Yeah, we have reached the a time when you shouldn't trust sites that allow users to vote. To be honest, you are better asking to real people in the real world how was the movie, you have a bigger chance of getting a sincere review of the movie you want to watch.

Also they say that it's a standard Marvel movie and since they've been lukewarm on the Marvel/Disney machine for like 5 movies now they're about the same.

The one thing they did say that really rang true for me is that it's sad only big blockbusters like this get all the press riled up when there's plenty of very good (nay, better) non-superhero movies with female leads that gain no press because they don't have a big swirling chud vs. anti-chud ticket sale fight around them.

The fun part is that the chud vs. anti-chud ticket sale was started by the chuds themselves :lol: They put an ok fun movie on the spotlight and it's the most hilarious thing ever. Like someone said, they should had boycotted the movie by ignoring it, instead of giving it a lot of free advertisement....but this is the same crowd that threw a guillete on the toilet, so welp more :lol:

One spin the chuds have been trying to trumpet is the 70% drop-off in box office which happens to like every movie ever.

I either blocked/silenced all the chuds, or they went quiet because "oops, the movie didn't flop", 'cause none of them has flooded the threads of the people I follow/Captain Marvel related threads in Twitter, or even Youtube videos.

Actually the spin is that the reason it's making so much money is that Disney is buying up tickets to shows across the country and there are sold out shows where nobody's in the theater. Sounds plausible to me!

Yeah, I'm already seeing a few comments of people being not OK with not having a Batman, or how it doesn't seem to connect to anything from the other movies.

Although the funniest comments are the kiddos happy that it's gonna be :spooky:DARK:spooky: like BvS or Deadpool. Can't wait for their disappointment if it's actually more of an artsy thriller than non-stop explosions and violence.

Edit: I'm actually gonna watch it because I'm dead curious, and it seems to be - if the trailer isn't lying hard to the audience- my kind of movie.

Do we know it doesn’t have a Batman? I assumed that’s what “It’s getting crazy out there” was alluding to.

Bruce Wayne parents are alive and he is a child in this movie (I think he is the kid in the trailer). So technically he is there. I guess people don't like that Batman, the vigilante, won't be a cataclysmic for Joker's origin.

I went to see Shazam with my sister (who although likes comic book movies, she isn't as a big nerd as I am, so she was going blank).

That was...SO FUN. We both were laughing our asses. Her complain is that the first moments of the movie were a bit confusing, as she couldn't tell who was good and who was bad. I gotta agree with that, it was a bit weird but later it started to get better. Overall the rest was funny.My favorite part, where I was bursting in to laughter was during Sivana's passionate villain speech and how Billy doesn't have super hearing :v: The Marvel family was awesome. And yes, the seven deadly sins were extremely scary, I don't think young children will have a good time during the meeting room scene.
