Quoted: I try to watch most Marvel movies at the theater, even though most if them are pretty bad. I haven't seen the Ant Man movies or any of the last 10 or so Spider Man movies. I wasn't planning on watching Black Panther but got drawn in by the great reviews and decided to give it a whirl. That movie was terrible, from the crappy acting and plot to the shitastic CGI, it was bad. Real bad. |

I’m gonna do what I always do: don’t listen to people because everyone and watch the movie, then form an opinion. I honestly am not gonna let SJW crap bother me. People here made Black Panther the most anti-white movie ever (which it had it moments but not enough to bother me).

Make movies to entertain and people will go see them but, make them to push an agenda and people will stay away. Simple rule that hollyweird never seems to learn. ...Black Panther supporters have not supported the Captain Marvel gofundme to get girls to go see the movie.
There is also a huge problem with Brie Larson who has been spinning Captain Marvel as a feminist movie, essentially isolating the audience, and she even recently came out against white males for some reason. I'm actually surprised and disappointed in Kevin Feige that he is allowing Larson to destroy the MCU audience, and that Disney and CEO Bob Iger haven't learned anything from Star Wars. It's never a good thing to split the audience or insult them. Do they not want white males to go see the movie? ...especially as Larson does more and more interviews (with non-white males, because why - white males are bad?? Larson does realize her bosses are white males, right? Guess that didn't come into question when she signed her $5 million deal for Captain Marvel and her 7-picture MCU deal, right? Is Larson buying any young underprivileged girls tickets with that multi-million dollar contract??).. Gofundme To get girls to go see Captain Marvel |

Quote HistoryQuoted:
What allowed Disney to craft this Marvel empire was two things, having a meticulous plan from day one as to how all of this stuff was going to fit together and doing their best to make all this seemingly niche stuff as accessible and widely appealing as possible. These are comic book based films, something that should have been very insular and only drawn in a small rabid fanbase for an audience... instead they made billions by crafting films that your mom wants to go see. And all of it is going to unravel in the blink of an eye if the house of mouse doesn't put a sock in the divisive shit. You cannot sustain a multi billion dollar franchise on virtue signaling and pandering to niche audiences that don't typically go watch these kinds of films. You can -want- to make a film that appeals to little girls, but you have to also make that same film appeal to little BOYS as well as big boys and girls, and old boys and girls, and people of all races... the fastest way to kill your profits is to start telling people "this isn't for you". Disney Marvel unintentionally (or intentionally if you see it that way) learned a very bad lesson with Black Panther that convinced them they don't need to include everyone, and the success of Black Panther was really -in spite- of its divisiveness. I highly doubt they are going to see that happen again with Captain Marvel. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I want to agree with this post...but then I think of Disney's "Frozen". I'd also go so far as to say traditionally "Disney princess" films like Frozen and Tangled have much wider appeal than folks think they have. Every Disney princess film has a prince in it that does something heroic, as well as comic relief characters that do their best to give the films a wider appeal. Mostly because the creators know in order to get the kids into the theater you have to also appeal to the adults bringing them, and the last thing you want to do is alienate the people actually paying for the tickets. |

Quote HistoryQuoted:
I called it. Ghostbusters reboot syndrome. Too many women, too much fuckery with the original premise. People will stay away in droves. Feminism alienates people more effectively than racism. I do wish that the movie industry would report actual ticket sales along with ticket revenue. These days with movie tickets often costing 10 dollars or more, you have to keep that in mind when comparing box office receipts against past movies when tickets were much cheaper. I remember when a typical movie was only a 3 dollar ticket. And before that, even cheaper. So for that reason ticket sales should always include number of tickets sold and not just their dollar value. Good luck getting in for less than $17 as an adult anywhere around here. I think senior tickets are $15. |
