Re: Avengers: Endgame (April 26th, 2019)

I saw this twice. As much as I want this to beat Avatar, I'm more anxious to watch it at home than in the theater again. It's hard for me to enjoy any movie in the theater anymore. I'm always stuck around the worst people. Checking their phones, talking, laughing for no reason, constantly eating and ruffling through bags and snacks.. Even when I go to like 9am showings on the weekend.

When I saw Godzilla on a Sunday early matinee morning in its 2nd weekend of release, I bought tickets dead center. The entire rest of the row to my right were a group of kids plopped down by mom who was nowhere in site. The kid next to my son literally ate his entire giant size tub of popcorn and then finished the kids' next to him as well, along with other snacks. Never stopping the entire movie. And yes, he was a bit on the portley side... Shocker..

No one has any consideration for others anymore. At all. People suck...

Yeah. I mean, I learned pretty fast if movies have a fandom, go opening day/weekend when all the other geeks are there. Kinda goin' through that right now - kinda - reading comments about Good Omens (Amazon video) *facepalm* but it's tough if you know a book and the authors and reading comments from audiences who've never heard of Neil Gaiman before etc. - and that's not even comments from the religious nuts.

But don't think geek-fans can carry films/TV or no more would get made. This stuff costs millions to make. I used to wait until second weekend but not any more. I'll be seeing Spiderman opening day. I missed the Godzilla window so will be streaming that one.

But I'll pass on EG - 3x in theater was plenty IMO for a bit of extra footage that'll be all over YT within hours. Just feels uncomfortably like a blatant cash grab. I need to funnel my cash to the pricey collectibles I have on PO.

MCU will always be around, the question is whether it will be relevant to the masses again in any serious way. Or will it be like other long-running mainstays that are mostly background, with the occasional blip of interest. Think Bond or even Godzilla... genres unto themselves that simply continue on whether anyone cares or not and, long after their glory period, have little impact on culture other than the occasional hit (well, not Godzilla).

THIS. Looking forward to the TV series more than anything - course, part of that feeling, for me, started with feelin' frustrated with IW/CM/EG - e.g. first time I felt Marvel's writing was slipping; e.g. using cheaper, larger groups of writers - e.g. the sense that the films weren't being as crafted as well. Although I felt a lot better about EG.

Am sure Disney knows all that tho. That it's smarter to do Spidey and the TV series and give stuff some breathing space. Lately various articles have been pointing out there's so many end-of-the-world, dark-type films around no one is paying attention any more. It's like it's just something movies do for a plot, all the time, which makes it tough to care.

So Disney is adding stuff to it at the end of June, then it comes out on DVD, bluray, and 4K 2 months later with even more content? Disney you just shot yourselves in the foot.

How perfect is it that the Only shot of Hulk in the ad is of him getting his ass licked (yet again) by an old bald woman.

Sums up Hulk's showing in the Last two film

Disney is never satisfied, but good thing they are getting what they deserve with Galaxy’s edge

That's cool that EG's current BO of $2.751 billion did just overtake Avatar's first run tally of $2.749 billion.

So it most likely will always have the highest first release earnings of any film in history.

And there were like five awesome Cap moments in that clip, lol.

Going to be looking forward to that Disney claim for years to come: "First Run Take"









Also looking forward to Cameron's comeback: missed me by $5

I'm fine with the re-release. I think it's all for fun for Disney to try to beat Avatar. I'm guessing it actually might cost them more to re-release this than what they'll actually earn even if they beat Avatar. The theaters will probably be getting a bigger percentage at this point, and Disney is pouring money back into marketing too. It's not a cash-grab, more of an attempt at taking the throne away from Avatar just for bragging rights (which is fine IMO).

 

[Wor-Gar]

Bragging rights are worth so much more than a few million to Disney AND Marvel.

It seemed so familiar. I think I even responded to it with the Pug.
