I mean honestly it is already a year late, what will another couple months mean. Yeah, there's no way in Hel I'm paying $30 to watch this at home.

bpc3qh Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 I didn't pay for Mulan, but I will pay any price Disney asks for this one. I don't care, I just want the damn movie. piper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicginger1789 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 (edited) I have a feeling this movie will be a huge letdown and be one of the poorer financial showings for Marvel. And not to any fault of their own. I just think COVID and the delays have really eliminated interest. That and the fact other Disney plus shows are moving forward while this is sidelined tells me all I need to know about Black Widow....a fun stand alone tale to give Black Widow more screentime but that will have no real effects on the overall MCU. At least not in a sense that seeing it is imperative to knowing what has happened or will happen. It could still be a fine movie but I think those who do see it first will have too high expectations. If it is anything more than just an action flick with Black Widow, I will be stunned. And I think too many people are expecting too much here. And hey, if I go in with this mentality, I cannot possibly be disappointed Edited January 27, 2021 by comicginger1789 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvel Studios isn't going to make the first film of Phase Four just a way to see more ScarJo in action. The film will tie in with the Disney+ shows, particularly Falcon Winter Soldier, and set up Phase Four (along with the two Disney+ shows before it). I wouldn't be surprised if the movie even sets up mutants, actually I'd be a little surprised...

If Black Widow gets a theatrical only release, it will save the movie theater industry. If it gets a hybrid release, it will be the first film to actually give the movie theater industry hope they can get through this. My prediction.

As I've said before, I don't mean Black Widow will save the industry with its box office receipts alone if it gets a theater only release, but rather that enough people around the world will flock to see the first MCU movie in two years that it will start the chain reaction of people going back to the movies and thus save the industry. Of course, that's predicated on the prediction that Disney will not do a theatrical only release unless the world has got to a certain threshold in diminishing the coronavirus and movie theaters do their part to make theaters safe and communicate that safety. They got four months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see a post credits scene being the only thing that truly hints at the future of the MCU....that aside, I will be stunned if the actual plot ties towards bigger things. I do believe it is just to give ScarJo some screen time, I really do. And again, happy to be proven wrong and if I am, I will likely enjoy it even more...I am just tempering my expectations extremely here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's always a safe bet to temper expectations going into a hyped up movie, but I'm expecting big things as well as a pretty good movie because the MCU doesn't ever seem to really let me down, at least since after Thor 2. jason4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
