Maybe this movie is tanking because America is tired of capeshit. Maybe (in spite of how ridiculous this sounds) Americans have grown out of it and don't want to watch kiddie movies anymore. Will you-know-who realize this and start making mature movies? Or will they keep making trash for kids and mock their viewers for being childish?
Capeshit is dead, they just don't want to admit it
It is tanking because it is a bad movie that shits on the MCU fanbase.
Marvel, is pulling a Rian, and they will pay for it.
Have sneks
America will never get tired of capeshit
Only soibois like capeshit. But they are a minority, which is why Disney is trying to sell it to women so desperately, too. Capeshit is dying.
Or westerns... or WWII movies...
>tanking
Isn't it on pace to make like $150M opening weekend?
Dying, no. Aging, yes. Kids don't care.
I'll make it very simple and clear: Captain Marvel is really worth a watch. It's just entertaining and visually impressive, exactly what it was meant to be.
Just keep this in mind that it's an origin story so don't go looking for an overstuffed complex story. It's just a fun action movie that introduces us to a new superhero Captain Marvel, played brilliantly by Brie Larson. I became an instant fan watching her in this action heroine avatar, something she manages to pull off with ease. Watch her in the action sequences and there's no way you can't be impressed. Viewers were literally cheering for some of the most heroic moments in the film. Samuel L Jackson as Nick Fury is as awesome as always, it's just that his character feels even better and refined than what we've seen. Jude Law is also quite good, and so are Ben Mendelsohn and Lashana Lynch.
But the one character that ultimately steals the show is Goose, the cat. Some of the sequences involving her are so hilarious that it was really difficult to stop laughing.
Visual effects are excellent, and the IMAX 3D viewing just elevated them. And since it's most importantly an action movie, every single action sequence it delivers is impressive, especially the train sequence. I would call it one of the major highlights of the movie. Cinematography in certain portions is really impressive. Humor, like any other MCU movie, is top notch and really manages to make you laugh.
Captain Marvel has a simple-looking origin story presented and executed in a terrific manner. The directors have done a great job with the characterization of Captain Marvel, and that is what makes everything in the film seem so good. The pace is brisk, gore is minimal to no, and there's nothing unsuitable for kids.
>muh therfuckin' muh ney
If Disney only cared about money, they wouldn't be so salty about the negative reviews. Dollar is good, but they need those shit movies to be loved, which they aren't.
>Capeshit is dying
>2018 highest grossing movies
1-Avengers: Infinity War
2-Black Panther
5-Aquaman
7-Venom
9-Deadpool 2
11-Ant-Man 2
>2019
Captain Marvel (will do ok at the box-office even if incels raid RT user score)
ENDGAME (will make 2billion +)
Spiderman 2
Shazam!
They don't care about negative reviews, they're just doing their due diligence to protect their investment. These movies are review proof. See the boatloads of money from Venom, Batman vs Superman, Suicide Squad. Box office numbers are the only review that matters.
dubious...
>“Captain Marvel” is heading for a dazzling opening weekend of at least $150 million in North America, early estimates showed Friday.
>Should the projections hold, “Captain Marvel” will wind up with one of the top 20 domestic opening weekends of all time. Sony’s “Spider-Man 3” has the 19th-highest launch frame with $151.1 million in 2007. It will be the biggest opening title since “Incredibles 2” launched with $182 million in June
>Tanking
Only top twenty... for a Marvel movie hyped as much as an Avengers film for eight months strait.
Not good, user.
Yeah, all they had to do was reserve all the theaters to show nothing but their new feminist flick for a while.
The second week drop will be giant.
>this conceited feminist propaganda failed
>probably because the genre is dying
nope. shit's fucked.
I lost interest long ago. They did all the big names already many of them more than once, now they are putting out shit no name characters
MCU will take a dive after endgame. A whole generation watched for the main characters and they're all leaving. Maybe Thor will be back but that's about it.

>show nothing but capeshit
>"all the highest grossing movies are capeshit, the genre is successful!"
Really now.
WE DON'T NEED ANOTHER HERO
