Just saw with my daughter. We both loved it. Not GoAT Marvel but very good.

I'll bet money right now it doesn't hit $130 million. Can't believe some of you eat that crap up still.
Even with mediocre word of mouth $120-130MM is very reasonable.
I think it will do it.
That's more of a personal preference thing. I don't care for the character/powers of the time stone because they're too convenient plot wise. When I was going backwards through the list of recent MCU movies it was the first one that wasn't clearly better than Captain Marvel in my opinion. But again, that's probably just a personal preference. At least that movie was bold.GiveEmHellBill said:Dr. Strange a lower effort? Wow.Ag Since 83 said:
It's not bad, but it's probably the lowest MCU effort since....Ultron? Dr. Strange maybe?
Do you have a release date for Star Wars: Poop Loop because I want to buy advanced tickets.bangobango said:C@LAg said:possible, but it is reportedly earning a $20-24MM Thursday night showing total, has a lot of sell outs for the weekend, and no real competition in cinemas or elsewherebangobango said:

There are a bunch of people that would see a dog pooping on a loop if it had marvel or starvwars or some other franchise name attached to it. You can see a lot of them on this thread. It may have a strong Thursday premier, but it will tank from here on out.
My favorite post by you ever.TCTTS said:
Don't get me wrong. Larson is even starting to rub me wrong in her public appearances/interviews. This isn't about her, though. Take her out of the equation and put, say, Emily Blunt in the role (someone I assume we all like). Why is giving girls and young women someone to identify with and aspire to in the superhero realm - and marketing it as such - so annoying and seemingly even threatening to some of you?

Yeah, this is going to make bank this weekend. I'm predicting 150 million.
As far as the movie goes, I dug it a lot. Fun and charming. Middle tier MCU is still a very good movie and nothing to scoff at. Excited to see more of her in Endgame.
Nice.Quote:
One of them is a SW fan and when I took her to see Solo and Enfys Nest takes her helmet off to reveal she's a teenage girl, my daughter said "Wow, she's just like me."
I agree with most of that.Quote:
Okay, my only complaint will sound weird: I wasn't a fan of how they used the 90's music in the movie. Most of it just seemed kinda forced into some of the scenes. Like...."hey, remember this song?" Maybe if they picked some more obscure songs instead of just using all the songs on a "Greatest Hits of the 90's" CD.
So you saw the movie last night?bangobango said:

And Black Panther came out during Black History Month. So what?Brian Earl Spilner said:
Today is International Women's Day. Interesting coincidence.
Sorry, this thread has just taken it's toll on me. I'd rather just discuss the movie now that I've seen it. I'll try and be less defensive and write a more in-depth review in a little while.Brian Earl Spilner said:
You seem defensive. Wasn't a sarcastic post.
I didn't think they'd purposely hold it until March just to coincide with a random women's holiday. Maybe they did, though.
Yeah, saying you lost your eye while performing a dangerous mission to save democracy sounds a lot better than "I lost it to a cute Lovecraftian alien cat who scratched me."Aggie94 said:
Man, it wasn't a "cat scratch", it was a friggin' flerken.
