They way you go on about it like it's the worst thing in the world makes it seem very much like the film punched your dog or something.
 
Because the way you go about it.

Regardless what you think of the movie itself, it IS film history.

If the subject comes up in a thread i visit like ASM or DOFP or Guardians ect.. i'll voice my opinion sure.

I assume the history you refer to is solo characters coming together into a group film?

I don't know enough about film history but it would seem that could have been done before possibly :dunno
 
There has never been a film series that took different characters, and brought them together from their own respective movies, all while keeping an established continuity over the course of the entire series. It's an idea that was never thought possible.

Roger Rabbit doesn't count. But it was the closest thing.
 
I dunno, i've never though Hollywood these days capable of doing something 100% new.

Although none come to mind there must be something in the vast history of movies where some are connected. Just seems likely to have happened once is all.

....


I just thought of one example :)

Tarantino's movies.

Earl Mcgraw the Cop from Dusk Til dawn has been in several Tarantino and Rodrguez movies as the same guy. The guy with the White Car they drive at the end of Death Proof was also the Rapist in Kill Bill. The Big Kahuna Burger is seen in a few i i think.

I think Quentin himself has stated they all his movies and some of Rodriguez' take place in the same continuity.

MCU is still by far be the most expansive and known to do it though :1-1:
 
Yeah, but none of those films have a strict continuity. Sin City doesn't take place in the same world as Planet Terror, nor does Jackie Brown.

It's just a little fun gag. Not really taken that seriously.

Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back.

Theres the rub... Nova doesn't even understand the point you're trying to make. His examples are more akin to Stephen King movie references, not the culmination of multiple movies coming together in one shared movie continuity. :lecture

Abbott and Costello did it back in 1948. I could probably think of a few others but I'm too tired.
 
^^ Oh yea, didn't the Fast and Furious beat the Avengers to the punch too by combining the Toyko Drift cast with the original or something like that. :lol this is easier than I thought.

I know exactly what you're talking about. But I don't think that's the same.

The Frankenstein films had to have led up to Abbott and Costello meeting them. That's the point of the Avengers. Doing everyone's backstory, and then bringing them together in one single film where each of the stories have cross-sect into one.

I'm pretty sure that hasn't been done until The Avengers.
 
Dead Snow 6.5/10

lol...the guy got bit then chainsawed his arm off thinking he saved himself....then a zombie pops up and bites his *****..glances over at the chainsaw...naw, F'it.
