Captain Marvel possesses superhuman strength, cosmic awareness and, it turns out, the ability to vanquish trolls

Captain Marvel possesses superhuman strength, cosmic awareness and, it turns out, the ability to vanquish trolls.

Marvel’s “Captain Marvel,” the superhero factory’s first movie fronted solely by a female hero, last weekend notched the sixth largest global opening ever and in five days of release has already sold $524.1 million tickets worldwide, Disney said Wednesday. That was despite the efforts of a vocal minority to sabotage the movie’s release in a campaign to lower audience scores and disseminate false information about the film’s star, Brie Larson.

It’s a playbook borrowed from the political realm and brought into the movie theater. And the movies that have drawn such attention have, more times than not, starred women in franchises previously dominated by males. But after similar campaigns against “Ghostbusters” and “The Last Jedi,” Hollywood studios are fighting back, as are sites like Rotten Tomatoes and YouTube.

Paul Feig’s 2016 female-led “Ghostbusters” remake, which Agent Orange himself spoke out against, was among the first films to be targeted by users rating it lowly on sites like the Internet Movie Database (IMDb) before the film was even released. On YouTube, it was the most disliked trailer ever.

A similar strategy was employed on Rian Johnson’s “Star Wars Episode VII: The Last Jedi,” which — like “Ghostbusters” — had, and continues to have, genuine detractors who simply didn’t like the movie. But there were concerted efforts to amplify criticism of “The Last Jedi,” which notably expanded the “Star Wars” universe with new heroes like Laura Dern’s resistance leader and Kelly Marie Tran’s maintenance worker. Tran eventually deleted her Instagram account after months of harassment.

So when Johnson and Feig saw similar attempts being made ahead of the release of “Captain Marvel,” they recognized the handiwork.

“Pretty much the new ‘Certified Fresh’ badge,” said Johnson, linking to an article about review bombing on “Captain Marvel.” ”What a sad, sad pathetic group of people are who organize to do things like this,” said Feig.

The amplified backlashes to both “The Last Jedi” (which opened strong but faded) and “Ghostbusters” (which disappointed altogether) appeared to hurt the films’ bottom lines.

But the tide may be turning. The same Facebook group that organized to vote down “The Last Jedi” also went after Ryan Coogler’s “Black Panther.” That time, though, both Facebook and Rotten Tomatoes moved to counter the group, which was removed from Facebook. “Black Panther” became the third highest grossing film of all time domestically, not accounting for inflation.

And “Captain Marvel,” which drew a majority male audience (55 percent), similarly showed no signs of any ill effect.

“If those trolls had any negative impact on the box office, somebody point it out to me because I just don’t see it,” said Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for Comscore. “The trolls, they’re not going derail a movie like this. For the fans, they love Marvel, they love the brand. Other than a terrible movie, nothing would dissuade the Marvel fans and the movie fans from coming out and seeing a film.”

Marvel, whose 21 films have earned a combined $18 billion in global box office, is indeed about as unassailable as any studio ever has been. “Captain Marvel” was also cunningly positioned as a need-to-see appetizer to “Avengers: Endgame,” due out April 26.

But “Captain Marvel” found itself in the crosshairs with some largely in response to Larson’s advocacy for diversity in film and in those who write about it. A USC Annenberg Inclusion Initiative study last year found that, for the 100 top grossing films in 2017, 77.8 percent of the critics counted on Rotten Tomatoes were male and 86 percent were white.

“This film is about trying to put in as many little revolutions as possible,” she told AV Club. “And as many little nods to what that experience is like, being a woman, so that other people could feel less alone.”

Online critics exaggerated her words in videos like one titled “Brie Larson hates white men.” Others said her character didn’t smile enough in promotional materials. Larson responded with a photo of giant grins superimposed on previous male Marvel heroes.

But perhaps more importantly, steps were taken to mitigate any troll effect on “Captain Marvel.” Two studio executives who spoke anonymously because they weren’t authorized to speak about their about their anti-troll efforts, said they’ve become more adept and prepared for combating organized negativity around a release. There are no more sneak attacks.

And the avenues for manipulating audience perception are dwindling.

YouTube, where anti-Larson videos proliferated ahead of the film’s opening, chose to categorize “Brie Larson” as a news search, not a general one. The algorithm tweak, first initiated to combat conspiracy videos after the 2017 Las Vegas music festival shooting, pushed videos from news and entertainment outlets up, and rants like “Brie Larson is Ruining Marvel!” down.

Rotten Tomatoes, which ranks both critic and audience scores, removed the potential for audience scoring before a movie is released. Though an initial wave of negative audience ratings pushed the score for “Captain Marvel” down, by Wednesday it was at 63 percent — almost exactly the film’s average on Metacritic.

Dana Benson, a representative for the Fandango-owned Rotten Tomatoes, said the site is exploring more adjustments to prevent the gaming of its audience scores including a “verified purchase” component to reviews, similar to Amazon’s system, so to audience reviews come from those who have seen the movie.

Fuck off Disney, you faggots were spamming this board with shill threads for days trying to get us to shit on your own movie so you could use internet nazi trolls as an excuse for why nobody likes anything you've made in 5 years.

Ghostbusters tripped so that Captain Marvel could stumble

I've said it once and I'll say it again. If Disney could fake ticket sales, they'd have done it for Solo and A Wrinkle in Time.

These numbers are real.

This movie is their grand propaganda tool which will set up future Marvel movies, of course they gonna support it as much as they can.

nice essay you fucking loser LOL

WE DID IT

WE BEAT SOME ANONYMOUS NERDS ONLINE BY SPENDING MONEY ON A SOULLESS CORPORATE PRODUCT

The Disney bought his own tickets for "charity" for 455 million dollars. Charity organizations around the world should have distributed free tickets, but judging by the empty halls this did not happen, that is, the money for charity was not spent.
Why is it necessary for Disney? the point is that according to American law, at the end of the year when paying taxes, you do not need to pay an amount equal to the money spent on charity. This means that at the end of the year, Disney company will pay taxes for 455 million less than he should have paid, and the money spent on tickets will also return to Disney, with the exception of 10-15%, which the cinemas will keep for themselves. This is a illegal scheme to avoid paying taxes.

They never learn. There's no such thing as bad publicity.

At this rate Star Wars Episode IX is going to be the most successful film of all time. (Which is funny because Solo did get ignored and did flop. Never saw any clickbait videos claiming Solo is white genocide.)

*farts*

I've said it and I'll say it again. There is no way Disney is going to let Black Panther and Captain Marvel fail because they focus on niggers and cunts.

Solo had a white male lead and Disney did not really push A Wrinkle in Time to begin with. Disney literally let them fail so idiots like you can claim that Disney is legit with their box office numbers and they most certainly are not.

Simply put, you don't use loaded dice on every fucking roll. Cheating all the time means an increased chance of getting caught and Disney knows this.

Look at this pathetic damage control. The negativity definitely affected the box office performance of Disney's movies. Trying to get the victorious trolls to stop is just really sad on your part.

If Disney "won" then why the fuck are you guys even here defending them? Why are you shits on a board that doesn't matter, huh? You shills fucking lost and now you are trying to save face with these false claims of success. Get fucked.

>damage control
>for a movie that is breaking box office records
Lol okay.

they're on a losing track. this is how it started with the last jedi. disney thought its shill could shame people into liking it. its already spun out of their control, because the fans now feel insulted and now they have a grudge.

Can't wait to screencap more posts like this for my "Captain Marvel will surely fail!" cringe compilation.

Come on, hit me with more idiotic claims you can't take back. This should be good.

As much as I enjoy watching seething incels get BTFO, the last people i want associated with CM are rian johnson and paul fieg

have sex

it's anonymous, so i don't give a shit. i'm just giving my honest appraisal of the situation, and the reaction of disney and their shills in the media criticizing the fans eerily similar to what happened after the last jedi. fans are starting to feel insulted and are starting to actively root for disney's failure.

It's the sixth biggest worldwide opening ever because it opened everywhere at once. Domestically it was beaten by Shrek The Third.

sex is for sluts

>incel COPE conspiracy theories keep getting more convoluted
AHAHAHAHAHA

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.

The difference is there's not really anything in Captain Marvel that "insults" fans. TLJ actively shat on previous Star Wars movies. Captain Marvel is just a new comic book movie about an already popular character so nobody has anything to feel offended about.

It's like both sides have an agenda only retards give a fuck about.

This. I don’t get why a shitty movie making a fuck ton of money is an accomplishment. Like why should we care? I don’t see a dime of that money

That's nowhere near as fun.

It's always better to have an opinion than not. Rocks are neutral, son. Living things give a shit.

>popular

people are pretty upset with the handling of fury. the cat eye scratch is equivalent to alien titty milking. they're also upset at the origin of the avengers. captain marvel is the most powerful, greatest, most wonderful mary sue super hero who makes all the other heroes look like shit, similar to rey. plus, brie larson, the star, is despised by much of the fanbase. the "i'm with her" tier advertising was irritating, and the fact that marvel wants to make her the star of the entire mcu going forward is also pissing people off.

>Like why should we care? I don’t see a dime of that money
Have you considered that perhaps some of us work in the business and we do see that money?

>the superhero factory’s first movie fronted solely by a female hero

This is very carefully written into tricking people into thinking it's the first female superhero movie, forgetting Wonder Woman?

Steve Trevor was very prominent in the Wonder Woman movie so they have a point. They shared the spotlight mainly because Gal Gadot isn't much of an actor while Chris Pine is a whole lot of actor.

also, again the reaction disney and its shill have had to the critics of the movie, calling them all trolls, has in itself pissed the fanbase off

dumb have you considered poster

>the "i'm with her" tier advertising was irritating
I've seen a lot of commercials for Captain Marvel and none of them were like that. What are you on about?

>with her

it's not much, but people noticed it.

Well feel free to link the ad in question because I never saw an ad that said that.

Do you want me to get sales data showing you just how popular Captain Marvel's comics have been even before the MCU, or are you going to accuse those of being faked by Disney somehow too?

they have relaunched that character multiple times in a short time span, because marvel keeps insisting that captain marvel should be a big deal, but the fans ain't biting. nobody likes or cares about her.

ya but you should have done it in the first place instead of flapping your cunt at me

Is that why it dropped 72%?

They're the masters at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. One success and they think they're unstoppable, which naturally leads to a massive, neverending chain of failures.

>defeat trolls
>vanquish trolls

Why is Disney trying to "fight" trolls? You don't fight trolls, you IGNORE them. Are they retarded?

Well, seems it worked this time, innit?

Ignoring trolls just gives them a platform. They're fighting them in smart ways that puts tape over their mouths. Deleting reviews, hiding the videos on YouTube... you don't ignore the trolls yourself, you make it so others are unable to do anything BUT ignore them.

I'll be a while mulling that one over. The idea of them ever being in that sort of proximity to the "jaws of victory" really threw me.

Relying on that kind of false dilemma you don't have much choice.

t. insane person

>the movie before endgame so the fans wanted to see the post credits scene
>opened in all markets at the same time
>many theaters were only showing cm, so many people had no choice but to see it or go home.

let's see, what am i forgetting, oh right.

>disney bought a ton of tickets themselves to pad the opening

and the fans thought it was mediocre at best, and brie larson was like dry wall in charisma.

So, let's make a comprehensive list of all the tricks used to polish this turd

1) worldwide release all on the same weekend
2) pushed back closer to endgame
3) marketed as necessary for endgame
4) youtube and facebook cooperate with disney to cook the numbers, control dissent and publicize
5) rotten tomatoes completely removes the "want to see it" button

what am i missing?

"False dilemma" being particularly accurate because his scenario never happened in the first place.

>you make it so others are unable to do anything BUT ignore them

They are doing the exact opposite of that though. They are drawing attention to them with articles like this.

there was no brigading or trolling. people simply dislike the movie and everything surrounding it. but carry on with this campaign of insults against the fans, it sure worked with star wars.

I don't believe in the culture war shit, there isn't one. There's culture massacre where corp-aided globalists effortlessly destroy the last bits of decency because late stage capilatism must necessarily remove the populace's capacity for reasoning and self-awareness to continue it's perpetuity.

You posted this in the other thread and you got btfo'd lol

yes i'm sure 100k negative reviews before the movie even opened were 100% legit
why do you people lie so hard? what are you getting out of this? no one believes you and you only fuel the other side's claims against you when you do this

hey now, disney pays a lot to those 40 teams of professional shills to create memes and gaslight the fans.

Is it still a conspiracty when RT quite openly removes negative reviews, when Youtube, again, quite openly changes it's search engine to hide the critical content, and Disney, also quite openly, bouys tickets for it's own movie to fill the seats?

Hes posting the article so you dony have to give them clicks you retard

if you're not getting paid, you're absolutely pathetic. disney runs a corporation blasting billions of dollars into PR, twisting the arms of multinational tech giants in order to mask failure. they don't need some pasty, thirsty white night to come on the Yea Forums board and defend their bullshit and spread their talking points for them.

Who gets to decide what passes for 'legit'? If those 100k reviews were overwhelmingly positive, would RT still remove them? Are people not allowed to dislike the movie based on factors outside of the movie? Where is this written?

fans have similar feelings about this movie and will express their feelings on it. they don't like the advertising, they don't like brie larson. there was no organized effort. also many thousands of reviews were removed and the score barely went up at all, then within a few hours, thousands of reviews were added, all positive.

>success
Huh?

Disney making it the only movie to air in a lot of cinemas for the whole weekend/week?

All worth it considering it succeeded.

you can screech all you want, disney is losing the publicity battle with fans, just like they did with star wars. dig that hole deeper.

I mean, maybe?
CM's budget was $152mn for production, but I can't help imagining the marketing budget was almost to that point as well, and then bribing theaters, facebook, youtube and Rottentomatoes, I can't imagine the actual profits for the Di$ney overlords is anything satisfactory, and even with all of their expenses their fluffed up numbers came to less than DC's own entry into a female-led superhero movie (I won't say first, as that was Catwoman, although I understand why everyone keeps trying to repress that ever happening).

assuming disney didn't pad the numbers by buying tickets, the movie has to make 750 million to break even. there are no more markets for it to open in, and its got bad word of mouth. no repeat viewings and no interest from people who haven't seen it already. we'll see how successful it ends up being.

Sure we are, incel. Sure we are.

>That time, though, both Facebook and Rotten Tomatoes moved to counter the group, which was removed from Facebook.

Have we finally reached the point where you are not allowed to voice a negative opinion about corporate overlords and their products?

they were voicing displeasure with everything surrounding the movie, not least of which was the star. what ever you may think of that, that doesn't make it trolling or fake. they were real individual people voicing their real opinion.

>defeat for trolls
Why does it seem like nobody understands how trolling works?

kek

that's because no one believes you are criticizing the quality of their product
they can see right through your lies and realizing you are attacking movies because you don't agree with them politically
you can deny it all you want in an anonymous board (you'd never dare do this anywhere else of course because you are cowards) but everyone knows it's true

it's about a lot of things, but yes, when a major corporation insults the customer, it tends not to go well. you seem a bit too emotionally invested in this, ask your supervisor to take a break before you go on a shooting spree.

well it just so happens that they did this in a movie review site
they already have their inceltube videos and this board to cry about brie
when it starts affecting a score that's supposed to quantify the QUALITY of a movie, not the character of it's lead actress, then the site put its foot down and had every right to do so

...No? Are you on drugs or something?

CinemaScore is for dullards

They had no reason to take those numbers while they definitely had a reason to take them for this. Especially after Antman2 didn't do too well and this is a month before endgame comes out they wanted another Black Panther not a Ghostbusters 2016

So you admit that Black Panther's numbers are real.

Shit movies being financial successes is nothing new.
Shit movies like Captain Marvel having turd thrown at it by both left and right for its poor writing, dumb directors who don't research their project, and a shitty main actress whose poor performance is blamed on the shitty writing even though good actors are defined by their ability to fix and innovate shit writing given to them in order to surpass it and she obviously lacks that talent, are however something only SJWs can conjure.
Only blogger "journalists" praise this shit.
You even have the Avengers cast being unimpressed by her and even disassociating.
This is not only a failure in terms of quality, but it's a failure in internal company politics even.

clearly not the case, considering how many people are insulted. but maybe white men are privileged and should keep quiet when they're insulted. disney wants our money, but they don't want to hear us speak.

>as for the "trolls" articles, calling you out isn't insulting
calling people with a legit opinion trolls, because it's negative is insulting.

>he makes money by whipping teens and incels into a frenzy with his "le evil feminists are going to take away your toys" narrative, which isn't even true

yes it is. it happened with star wars, it happened with marvel comics. you may take progressive politics for granted because you agree with it, and therefore ignore it when you're looking right at it, but most of the world isn't california. and men, and especially white men are tired of being bombarded with it 24/7 from television, movies, comics, video games.

>no. there are 100-200k nu-right haters that scream loud online. they don't matter and are being steadily deplatformed.

that's disgusting. censorship always gets you progressives giddy, it's nothing but pure cowardice on your part.

> everyone else is progressive so they won't stop making pop culture progressive

depends on the demographic, men, who are the main audience for these movie are tired of it, which is part of the reason star wars is failing right now. and you're deluded if you think most people are progressive. you have things backwards, twitter has amplified the voices of sjw's and unlike right wingers, progressives don't get censored. they're a loud minority who've had their way for about a decade, but the pendulum is swinging back to the right.

not to mention this new tactic of paying whiteknighting squads that's going to backfire

I find it interesting that you're the one that's reddit spacing and he isn't. Proof that it really is the right that is the redditors.

The movie would have made multiple times the bank if they cast a less retarded actress and didn't alienate many white men from paying up to watch it, who are statistically the biggest audience, in what ultimately culminated in anti-advertising propped up by the dumb actress and the media publications.

Wonder Woman is a movie about a woman working together with men to fix shit and also being responsible with her powers and bearing. That's Egalitarianism.

Captain Marvel is a movie about an ego-trip feminist giving it to the man in the most infantile ways and doing everything tribalistic, with pathetic bearing unbecoming of a leader going against the definition itself, yet it's "supposed" to be a leader-character. That's Feminism.

yep, before it was just about a shitty movie and a shitty star, but the insults thrown at the fans is turning this into something more. like with star wars, people are now rooting for disney to fail.

right, Yea Forums is really a progressive sjw site. nigger.

accept it, trolls. your counter shilling does not have an impact on culture at taht scale so time to rethink all that shit; how about one of you produce an actual movie , post it on /tv and if its watchable we will shill it. to avoid looking like a wastrel make sure its not metastized with RESSENTMENT, be strong and bold and manly and loving in your filmmaking, not a lil bitch, and we will shill you to the max. fuck shilling hollywood, let's encourage the locals.

No, unlike you I have no interest in Disney's bottom line. But apparently if Disney makes another billion dollars, this is a victory for you. I mean it's obviously very important to you that a Disney movie does well, right? You surely have no agenda that would extend to buying your own product to boost immediate interest, nope.

You will censor the entire internet, but you wont spend a million dollars (mere peanuts) buying up first weekend sales in bulk. Then how will you explain the massive 2nd and 3rd week dropoffs?

Nothing will wake them up. They've experienced loss after loss and they learn nothing from it. They just double down and use the same tactics again and again because it's all they know how to do. They will eventually just fade away.

interesting theory. i know that type, eager beaver in theri early 20s who want to make it with their writing online who have less and less opportunities to do so will accept to be a lil bitch for the industry, and will justify it to themselves and their friends as it being an advanced IRONIC move but bottom line is, you are a lil shit who post useless garbage like Hulk Hogan sex tape; you are indistinctible from the problem. the problem is you. better be on the streets than be on the payroll as a bottom bitch for that shitculture industry. fuck em all.

Because this is a part of their false flag which is complete shutdown of Yea Forums in preparation for the 2020 elections.

>You will censor the entire internet, but you wont spend a million dollars (mere peanuts) buying up first weekend sales in bulk. Then how will you explain the massive 2nd and 3rd week dropoffs?
If Disney bought the first week sales, why wouldn't they buy the second and third week sales as well?

Yeah, it's totally just a conspiracy theory that the entire internet worked in unison with Disney to censor any, and all, criticism. And I'm going to take the first week numbers that these same media outlets report at face value. Surely, none of them would lie to me.

It's not my fault that you don't understand the importance of hype in a free market, capitalist economy.

I don't doubt it, I just think it's hilarious to have Johnson weighing in on review bombing and saying "low score = good" when it's clear as day now that neither apply to his movie, people just genuinely hated it. He's got such a big head it's a wonder he manages to fit it so far up his own ass.

This is almost sad to watch at this point.

There were no negative reviews before the movie opened. Lying only makes you look more retarded for shilling disney trash.

It succeeded so well that this is the first movie in history where its internet defense force has to crow about the international box office numbers instead of the domestic.

Cope harder.

Sad that you aren't self aware enough to understand that they're making fun of you for being a massive hypocrite.

Not who you were replying to but this is stupid. They pandered to normies and it's working. The last 2 movies were massive box office successes. Yes they killed the franchise. But pandering to "real fans" is not how you make money.

SO FUCKING WHAT?

And A Wrinkle in Time was worth more as a politically correct cudgel than a commercial product, which is why we're still hearing about that mediocre movie months later. Captain Marvel is a movie about their new MC for the MCU, they knew they couldn't let it fail, which is why they're going as all out as they are

The Disney haters were expecting the movie to do well and were planning to create a conspiracy about how it didn't ACTUALLY do well, so when it bombed they had to change their story completely.

That's the beauty of trolls; society itself could crumble as a direct result of the actions of trolls, and they'll still wake up 10 minutes early to take a shit in the communal coffee pot.

If I did, indeed group up women in general with the success of CM I'd probably thinks less of them. Therefore I will simply chalk it up to a billion dollar corporation trying to using women politically to make another cheap buck.

There, see how your juvenile accusation is beaten with logic even a third grader could grasp?

Y'know, I didn't believe the whole "Disney used charities to buy their own tickets and artificially inflate their BO for the media and their investors" before when it was proposed for Black Panther. But...BP did not play to empty theaters on its opening weekend. I now consider that its plausible Disney may have started to buy tickets for BP because, being the white nationalists with guilty consciences that they are, they believed that they'd have a hard time getting more than just black people in theaters. So they were pleasantly surprised when it took off the way it did.

Something tells me the hype that sprang up around BP was way, wayyyy more than they ever expected to generate, and that they have no real idea how they managed to create the massive hypebeast that it became. Which is why they went as overboard as they did with the marketing of Cap Marv. They think that leaning into the "historys first" angle is their winning ticket

>> didn't even make 2x back
You act as if it's not still in theaters. Man the next two weeks are going to be so much fun.

marketing budget was at least as much as the film itself, it's the AAA tier production companies' standard.
Counter propaganda was an additional expense on the already bloated marketing budget.

All the stuff you listed is included in the marketing budget for every Disney film. It's no different from usual.

You understand that most movie releases are staggered internationally, right? Which is what keeps the numbers up over the course of a few weeks. Captain Marvel opened internationally on the same day. It's done.

If she has cosmic awareness where was she when the earth/the universe were in danger during the last 20 MCU films?

then the budget has to have been at least 150% of the film's cost. And 2x ROI hasn't even been reached if the marketing budget would have been only 100%.
But no matter, the damage has been done for post-Endgame continuation & the saga will die after it regardless as the primary cast walks out after Endgame.

I hate indulging in this kind of stuff because it really does make you sound like some kind of insane conspiracy theorist, but on the other hand it's upsetting how much sense it makes and how completely possible it is. But getting Mouseketeers and liberals to agree would be "giving Patrick back his wallet" tiers of impossible.

>it's upsetting how much sense it makes
Its upsetting how confident you sound about something that actually makes no fucking sense at all.

The MCU will fail any day now!

as soon as Downey & Hemsworth walk out, it will.

So, never? The argument you're making is that they're going to suddenly stop liking money and quit.

Nothing lasts forever, user. The Infinity War arc is coming to a close and I guarantee you whatever they have planned next will never be as iconic as Thanos or the Infinity Stones

Explain how it makes no sense. Companies have been using excessive/beneficial donations to soften the blow of their tax payments since forever. Disney is a multibillion dollar corporation who has the capability of buying their own (failed) product and turning it into a charity donation/tax write-off, while having the bonus effect of making it appear as though they were actually successful, which equals more headlines and more exposure. It's win/win/win, simply because they have the assets to burn.

You imply they won't be able to make money doing anything else. Surely not as much, but Marvel movies are highly physical and require them to be in great shape. They're probably sticking around to pad their bank accounts out as much as they can while they're still young, then they'll be happy to move on to other projects. They've made such big names for themselves in the MCU that any other studio would be glad to sign picture deals with them, since they're bound to bring in guaranteed views no matter what they're in, now.

They just bought the rights to Doctor Doom, the most popular villain in comics history.

You have no idea what's about to start.

Downey is walking out after Endgame & no more Thor films are on the speculation list. They're walking out.

What kind of fucking redneck podunk middle-of-nowhere place do you live that the theaters only showed CM???

>4) Jurassic World
>5) The Last Jedi
>8) Black Panther

wait, are you telling me that if a movie did was on opening weekend it means it's a good movie and not a good marketing campaign? I didn't realize Spiderman3 was in the top 10 movies of all time

The SJW cancer that just finished crippling Star Wars' spine has taken root in the MCU. And it will be further emboldened to double down by recent events surrounding Cap Marv, which it naturally saw as a threat to its existence. The MCU is done for.

THIS!

This is true but you know what´s also true? the fact that the Ghostbuster reboot and Last Jedi where shit. I get Hollywood making shitty movies with female or colour leads though... since that way they can missdirect the heat from terrible scripts and blame it all on racism or mysogeny.

But let me ask you, doesn´t that argument falls short considering people also bashed Solo?

Damn, not looking forward to a revival of ‘add X to make it look cooler’.

get litty

Making the Skrull good guys weirded me out as a Marvel Comics fan

Not difficult at all. The mouse wants its movie to look like its succeeding. The liberals want to push their agenda. If they have to shill a giant megacorporation to do it, they don't mind a little hypocrisy.

Their masters haven't informed them yet. They have to finish running incel into the ground first.

>Leftists unironically shilling for Censorship

Wew.

>RT is owned by Warner Brothers.

RT is owned by Fandango, the head of which was previously a high-level Disney employee.

>box office mojo claims it made all of that foreign money

What did the jews mean by this

Who the fuck goes to a movie on Monday?

Yeah and I'm sure that RT audience score is legit when you go through the pages and see that almost every page is people rating it negatively and somehow it has a positive score. WEIRD

This entire debacle is just exhausting. The two groups of people are just talking past each other and it's frankly a waste of time

That isn't even remotely an argument

>hello fellow 4channers don't you think the anti npcs are just as bad as the npcs.
>Hey look at my new cuck tattoo guys

Nothing new there. They've been openly calling for restrictions on free speech for years.

I agree that captain marvel is a shit movie, but the discussion at this poitn is just a waste of time

Nah, they're totally legit.

Never change, Yea Forums

Well the shills are out in full force spamming this shit so this will happen for weeks to come

Fml, I want to move on to kaijukino

Based Mike, good taste as usual.

The reason people add Xs to their username was actually not for that, but because back in the day only one person could take a username. So if a name was taken and you really wanted it, you could put Xs around it since they're kind of a meaningless letter, and still get the name you want.

I think I harbored a dislike for those tokusatsu films because my dad always talked about them when I was younger, which bred resentment on my end.
I never really understood their appeal.

Leetspeak was also an option.

Then maybe you should stop responding to the threads. But you don't do that. You bring them to 300 posts every time. Pathetic.
>inb4 "it'd happen even if I didn't post!"
Sure it would. You're in denial.
