So... Captain Marvel made HALF what Black Panther did. What happened? They followed the exact same marketing script, substituting "first woman superhero" for "first black super hero".
What was it? Marvel fatigue? Social justice fatigue? Brie Larson?

Black Panther actually had a black creative team. The entire project is actually a good opportunity for black people to work on a big film, and the whole thing is steeped in African imagery.
Captain Marvel just stars a woman. Lots of films do that.
Black Panther was introduced in Civil War and made people want to see him again.
Captain Marvel is blatantly being shoehorned in from nowhere before Endgame.
Disney themselves were shooting for 200.
The Black Panther cast never said "We don't want white people seeing this film, it's not for THEM"
>moving the goalpost to claim sone sort of capeshit victory
Imagine being this pathetic
Black Panther is an anomaly among solo films, especially first in the trilogy.
Surprised it surpassed Thor 3, the marketing Disney did for this movie was insane, really tricked a lot of women into thinking they needed to see it
It wasn't diverse enough. White woman doesn't cut it in 2019, needs to be a poc or have some other abnormality.
That wouldn't even cover the budget, but it's going to reach 1 billion which is still good, mainly thanks to how much Asia loved it
It's "fans" certainly said that. At least the ones with Twitter accounts anyway.
>but it's going to reach 1 billion which is still good, mainly thanks to how much Asia loved it
We are talking about Captain Marvel, not Aquaman
Huge difference. Twitter nogs are always insufferable. The star of the film is supposed to be likeable.
>What happened?
Niggers and söymilk enthusiasts flocked to go see BP while Disney bought their own tickets to give away. CM only had söymilk enthusiasts interested in the Avengers Endgame lore tie-in after Disney bought a ton of their own tickets to inflate the opening box office numbers.
That's true. So I at least appreciate when I don't see celebrities saying stupid shit on social media.
Captive audiences. I was away for work the past two weeks and the 4 screen movie theater near my hotel only had three movies showing, Captain Marvel, Us and two shows of Wonder Park.
neither did the cast of captain marvel
It made 3 times what you goobers said it would. Ethan Van Scriver doesn't even mention it anymore because he got so badly BTFO.
It's still a bomb according to Yea Forums.
domestically it under performed if it was suppose to be BP 2.0, foreign saved it
> it was suppose to be BP 2.0
Source?
How did this piece of shit make 40M in Korea?
Pretty sure it's easier to fake numbers in certain countries like SK and China
Probably. Surely explains Aquaman's 340M from those two.
>Source: His ass.
Okay, I'll bite. BB was in a previous Marvel movie and viewers knew him already. Its gimmick, the almost all black cast and a secret African nation, is also more interesting than "look, it's the 90s, but barely noticeable" of CM.
Let it go, it made over 900 million. you lose
Those are just domestic gains
1/10 shit thread
>what happened
Activists , celebs, and entire schools were buying out entire theaters so poc kids could go see BP
too ugly to be a superhero
kinda amazing that even iron man 1 manages to beat mis marvles domestic earning if you adjust for Inflation
t. seething, desperate, bitter, incel
>What was it? Marvel fatigue? Social justice fatigue? Brie Larson?
fuck off with that shit, Captain Marvel made more money than any MCU origin movie that existed up until now and it's very close to a billion so nah there's no "superhero fatigue" and Brie Larson is fine she's not some man hating person that some manbabies and incels try to make her
>"first woman superhero"
Now imagine if it was "first black woman superhero". Avatar numbers for sure.

>a movie that's been out for 3 weeks hasn't beat a movie that was out for 22 weeks
What a fucking revelation. Jesus, how is that even possible?
Koreans love marvel.
Friendly reminder that Ironman was a total bomb according to Yea Forums's new math.
this shit movie couldn't even beat aquaman with the entire neoliberal establishment behind it?
it is to movies what hillary is to politics
