Straw-Man Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 well, i had just before that sold him a timely schomburg undercopy of mine, and told him, in the subject thread, that if he REALLY thought the hat>cap, i wanted him to return the schomburg, as he wasn't worthy of it. he came clean and opted for the schommy, but only grudgingly. i still grin about it. piper and Larryw7 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimik Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Saw the movie today with thehumantorch and Artboy99. It was okay, an average Marvel film. The best part was Wanda vs the Illuminati. MetalPSI 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drummy Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 I saw it last night with my wife, who loved it (save for a few clunky lines and the musical note fight). I'd give it a B, I think, putting it in the lower third of the MCU thus far...very much enjoyed Lizzie Olsen's performance, but found the film overall didn't balance exposition and new (or cameo) character beats (which there was a lot of) with compelling character work for Dr. Strange and Wanda/Scarlet Witch. Enjoyable Raimi spin on a Marvel film, but ultimately more empty calories than substance. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco685 Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 No matter the quality or logic, moviegoers are there for the MCU. They are sold on this model. There is no debating it. Rip 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People go to see the movies they think are worth seeing, and they don't go to the ones they don't care about. It ain't rocket science. -J. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least with Shang-Chi that was a clear moneymaker as it exceeded 2.5X-2.8X. Not a massive hit. But still clearly profitable. jimjum12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But still clearly profitable. You have the budget wrong on shang-chi , it was actually 175MM, not 150MM, and once you factor in global P&A you're close to 300MM all in. Not on any planet is 432MM "clearly profitable" with those numbers. All three of those movies were bombs just like the movies DC released last year were bombs, just bigger ones. -J.
