Brought my tickets for spiderman, take that Bronsonlee

I don't believe you, Mr. Non-MovieGoer!

Baby Driver was a cool movie. Glad BronsonLee didn't ruin it and now we might get a sequel.

I gave it my best shot and I failed.

Damn you, Edgar.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

Bout due for a new Thor Trailer ain't we?

D23, breh.

 

[Slayven]

D23, breh.

I keep forgetting about that

 

[OrangeAtlas]

Re-watched Doctor Strange last night and COMPLETELY forgot the stinger teases his appearance in Thor: Ragnarok.

Thor, Loki, and Doctor Strange fooling around on Earth, then a Thor and Hulk buddy comedy up in space.

Yeah, this movie is going to make a killing.

I still need to watch strange, keep forgetting that.

I don't think i saw anyone mention that he's totes wearing his yellow gloves in that scene too

Are you done going to the movies until February?

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

The rest of his costume is closer to the classic one too

 

[Prompto]

Thank you Taika Waititi

 

[BumRush]

I'll be honest... I liked, but didn't love Thor. I thought Thor 2 was exceptionally mediocre.

But I'd be lying if I said I wasn't insanely excited for Thor 3

 

[Slayven]

Are you done going to the movies until February?

I will see thor, my sister loves Thor. I still say Marvel made a major coup by making the infinity gems a house hold name that from 8 to 80 can talk about

Broke ass slay

I think most would agree with all this

Except I think the first Thor is an all around great time

 

[Slayven]

I just don't like the theater experience, but my theater just remodeled and put in recliners, it helps

 

[OrangeAtlas]

I don't think i saw anyone mention that he's totes wearing his yellow gloves in that scene too

Noticed that last night too. Cute little detail that I'm glad they added.

I still need to watch strange, keep forgetting that.

The movie itself is a good enough rehash of the Iron Man-esque story, but the visuals are NUTS and some of the most creative I've ever seen. The animation team absolutely deserved every Oscar they didn't win on that.

 

[BumRush]

I still need to watch strange, keep forgetting that.

It's definitely in the top half of Marvel for me. Visuals are too notch.

 

[BronsonLee]

I'ma kidnap Slay and just lock him in a movie theater

 

[Toa TAK]

I'ma kidnap Slay and just lock him in a movie theater

Kinky I guess

 

[Slayven]

Are you a batman villian? The Annoyer?

 

[DMczaf]

Are you a batman villian? The Annoyer?

How not to talk to short people

 

[BronsonLee]

I am...

*whoosh*

The Decider

 

[Lima]

For some reason I'm watching that Frankenstein movie with Daniel Radcliffe on Sky right now and I can't stop laughing because he looks ridiculous lol. Terrible

 

[PhoncipleBone]

I will see thor, my sister loves Thor. I still say Marvel made a major coup by making the infinity gems a house hold name that from 8 to 80 can talk about

If they tease Beta Ray Bill being in it you would be there day one, sister or not.


And just got home from Spider-Man. Damn, that was a lot of fun.

 

[Messofanego]

I still need to watch strange, keep forgetting that.

It's a forgettable movie tbh. You're not missing much other than cool Inception inspired visuals.

 

[Obliterator]

While we are on the topic of Marvel I wonder when they are finally going to start talking about Captain Marvel.

I guess Comic-Con?

 

[Cooter]

I still need to watch strange, keep forgetting that.

It was entertaining but I have no desire to ever watch it again.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

I liked it then forgot I ever saw it, which made me reconsider my thoughts once I actually remembered it.

 

[WaffleTaco]

While we are on the topic of Marvel I wonder when they are finally going to start talking about Captain Marvel.

I mean it is a 2019 release date. So it's a year and a half off.

 

[OrangeAtlas]

While we are on the topic of Marvel I wonder when they are finally going to start talking about Captain Marvel.

Marvel seems to work on a 3 film promotion cycle. Now that Spider-Man's out of the way they'll probably be focusing on Thor, Black Panther, and starting on Infinity War.

 

[Obliterator]

I mean it is a 2019 release date. So it's a year and a half off.

That's true I keep forgetting its still so far off.

Heck Ant-Man and the Wasp hits before it, totally forgot about that

 

[LordOfLore]

Speaking of the 'Bleach' movie getting a teaser, wasn't Naruto going to get a Hollywood movie?

 

[hodayathink]

While we are on the topic of Marvel I wonder when they are finally going to start talking about Captain Marvel.

I guess Comic-Con?

Isn't D23 this year? And don't they barely do Comic-Con when they do D23? Also, we apparently just got news today that Fury's gonna play a decent part in the movie, but I expect only casting news to come out this year, with any talk about the plot or general ideas about the movie holding off until early next year.

 

[Prompto]

Speaking of the 'Bleach' movie getting a teaser, wasn't Naruto going to get a Hollywood movie?

After Ghost in the Shell's performance, I'm sure that's on ice. Even if Naruto is more popular.

Deadline's reporting that Homecoming is on track for a 13M+ Thursday.

Deadline's reporting that Homecoming is on track for a 13M+ Thursday.

Kswis, explain!

 

[PhoncipleBone]

Deadline's reporting that Homecoming is on track for a 13M+ Thursday.

That must have just updated. When I first got back from it it was saying only $10m. Not bad!

 

[PhoncipleBone]

Kswis, explain!

From the Deadline article:

At $13M-plus, Homecoming is ahead of such Thursday preview nights as Deadpool ($12.7M), Guardians of the Galaxy ($11.2M), Wonder Woman ($11M), Captain America: The Winter Soldier ($10.2M, 2014), Spider-Man 3 ($10M, 2007), Doctor Strange ($9.4M, 2016) and The Amazing Spider-Man 2 ($8.7M, 2014).


Deadpool, which churned out a first day of $47.3M and three-day weekend of $132.4M, is an outsider in regards to comps. It was a box office anomaly as a R-rated superhero comedy and its business was further fueled by Valentine’s/Presidents’ Day foot traffic. The Thursday nights of Wonder Woman, Winter Soldier and GOTG repped close to a third of their Friday business which ranged from $36.9M to the low $38M. Out of those three, Wonder Woman earned a $103.2M opening; its business spurred largely by young and old females who were yearning to finally see their favorite classic superhero on the big screen. Meanwhile, GOTG and Winter Solder opened to $94M-$95M. It’s still too early to determine if Homecoming cracks triple digits. Saturday could tell a different story. Homecoming has the benefit of being more family-friendly than the dark Andrew Garfield titles and the edgy Sam Raimi pics. That quality could work to Homecoming‘s benefit during matinees versus being frontloaded like other Marvel movies. Out of all the comps we listed above, Homecoming has the best reviews with a certified fresh Rotten Tomatoes rating of 93%. That’s the second-best reviewed Spider-Man title after 2004’s Spider-Man 2 (94%) and it’s a complete improvement over Amazing Spider-Man 2 which earned the worst reviews in the six-pic series at 52% Rotten.

Boxofficemojo had an estimate for 110 million but that was without weekend previews. I think with the previews, anything below 90 million is unlikely and we are now looking at 110+ million.

 

[FTF]

On pace for about a $115m ow or so...which is ironically (coincidentally?) the same OW as the first SM movie 15 years ago.

All the weekend estimates include the Thursday previews usually. Unless that is a new change.

 

[DarkLordMalik]

Of course. What I meant was that they put this estimate before they had the preview numbers.

 

[DeathyBoy]

But MCU will bring Spidey to new heights...

It's like poetry.

Oh wow, forgot about that too. That would actually be a year away from us now.

That's funny

And just got home from Spider-Man. Damn, that was a lot of fun.

Real talk if they have Beta Ray Bill every other company might as well retire their comic book movies, cause no way they could top that

 

[Mega Man's Electric Sheep]

From the Deadline article:

The Raimi Spiderman is "edgy"? Never heard it described that way lol *cue dancing Toby gif*

 

[kswiston]

But MCU will bring Spidey to new heights...

Up $25M from the last opening would be good. Amazing 3 was probably looking at x-Men Apocalypse numbers.

 

[kswiston]

Also, if you thought that Minions marketing was bad here...

 

[Sibersk Esto]

The Raimi Spiderman is "edgy"? Never heard it described that way lol *cue dancing Toby gif*

Tobey Maguire's original screen test was a little edgy.
