Man, you guys still fighting over this fucking superhero thing?
Hope the movie still manages the 1bn $
Its a (bad) joke.

DC got Walker to re-invent the character and then basically took a bat to that book's knees for every issue.
They coulda had a reinvention of the character on the level of what he did w/ Nighthawk, or even something retro-but-still-fun like w/ Power Man & Iron Fist.
Instead....

He came back to Disney with Jungle Book and is serving as a producer on Infinity War. Iron Man 2 was a giant mess all around and I think he got exhausted dealing with studio and troubles.

The Bye Bye Man is bad, Live By Night simply exists. People care if a movie is good or bad. Ambivalence is death.
I wouldn't consider either Luke Cage and Fury Jr. interesting.
I am still shocked Marvel published Nighthawk.
We can drop the hope part. Rogue one is $20M away from $1B coming off a $35M weekend WW. Just the remaining domestic gross will be enough to push it over.

They need to reboot Meteor Man but actually make it good.

3 is miles better than 2. Iron Man 2 is Batman Forever tier.

2 had a likable, layered villain. 3 was just another corpse on the MCU pile. And the stuff with Pepper at the end, good god.
Guys, guys, we can all surely admit that both Iron Man sequels are hot garbage. No need to argue.
It's not at all bad, just boring as hell, which one could argue is even worse.
There is a really neat shootout at the end, at least.

Why can't DC just stop trying to follow marvels footsteps and stop rushing for a shared universe. They have big enough IP's that they don't need to desperately rush to a shared universe. Batman has the potential to crack 1 billion alone and I feel like superman and wonder woman could go close as well. Flash could do pretty well as a standalone. They have big name characters they just need to make actual good movies.
I'd rather just see their individual movies then this shitty justice league attempt.
It got closer to Star Wars than I was expecting. With the later films likely to link more in to Harry Potter I feel like there is a lot of potential for FB.

Meteor Man...bad?
I remember loving that film when I first saw it. I think I'll keep it that way.

It has a good premise and ideas and it's cast was stacked with talent, but the movie sucked. I think you could do a really good remake of the film and create a franchise.
Yes, please cherish your memories and do not ever rewatch it now and forever tarnish it.

An actually great movie about Christianity, and it's not doing mega bucks? I guess the tone of the movie being super depressing compared to God Is So Deaded or whatever malarkey Lion Mandrake loves plays a big factor. No wait, Passion of the Christ was huge. Did they just not market it well?

This the team up we've been waiting for. Marvel needs to go ahead and acquire the IP and incorporate him in the MCU.

Sucks he shares the name with the other Meteor man, who later changes his name to "The Looter"

the villian was exactly what was terrible about it. Mickey Rourke chewing up scenery with his terrible accent is exactly what reminds me of Batman Forever and Tommy Lee Jones' Two Face.

The Looter? Oh my god. Is he a criminal villain that creates riots during high racial tensions in order to live up to his namesake.

These box office threads will not survive Wonder Woman opening weekend.
What did he mean by this?

One of these days my "Iron Man 2, Captain America 1, and Thor 1 are the best Marvel movies" thread will be finished
That 2010-2011 period was sweetspot for me.

Not much advertisement. From what I know the posters emphasised the Friday the 13th release date over anything else. Probably trying to make people think that it's a new Friday the 13th film.
There's some people on Gaf who think it'll bottom out at Ant-Man numbers.
I'm not kidding.

Why are strippers at the U.N. bad when they're great at strip clubs???
I just want to say that maybe Vinny's Passengers prediction of $100M domestically will ring true! It's holding much better than I think anyone would have thought!

I saw a theme video for it that had 7,2 million views, which is similar to MoS videos, so maybe L. Frieza will be right and people will show up for it.
If it's another mess tho, ho boy.
No he breaks into houses by floating around on his balloon backpack
Oh snap. Dark Horse Candidate.
Highest Grossing Directors list on BoxOfficeMojo is a fun list. Spielberg at #1 with double of #2 (Michael Bay).
That list is only counting Domestic Gross though.

Is there early tracking yet for the 2/10 weekend? Lego Batman, Fifty Shades 2 and John Wick 2 all opening that weekend.
I'm assuming Batman will win by a good bit but I'd like to know what the regulars here think.

You're right. A film with the same name as the song from that floppy old boyband is a guaranteed flop. If it's Backstreet Boys then I'll see it.

Yeah I mentioned it before, but in retro casting Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence was a damn good call for that film, as I doubt with those reviews the film would be anywhere near where it is. When all is said and done with home video release and streaming / TV rights the movie will actually probably make a little bit of profit.

Well by casting Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence the budget of the film went up substantially that they had to restructure the film to a blockbuster by adding action and appeal to a much wider audience, otherwise it would've been a modestly budgeted, romantic sci-fi fi film. If I'm not mistaken, Jennifer Lawrence alone was paid 20 million.
I agree that 3 is better than 2, but 2 is better than Batman Forever.
Yes, but 3 was better in the pacing, action and maybe even humor department.
