The Marvels

[ianh]

Not to jump on the box office bandwagon but somewhere around a $400m total sounds about right to me, I don't think the flood of news around low pre-sales will be "that" representative of the final sales as international sales in places like the UK will still be quite high even if US pre-sales look low.

Hmm 300millizon at a push

I just proved you wrong.

Well it was about that time that I noticed that the Girl Scout was about 8 stories tall and a crustacean from the protozoic era.......tree Fiddy. I'll guess that ($350m).

 

[Kyo]

I Reckon around $300 Mill if they are lucky. Hard to say without watching it.

i think 650. Theres not much else out and it will be cold by then

I think you're not factoring in how **** it's going to be.

 

[Kyo]

If it's anything like how well Blue Beetle performed it's going to struggle.

 

[ianh]

It's projected to open at roughly double what Blue Beetle made in the US, but I still think the international market is where this thing'll make most of its money.

 

[uvarvu]

1hr 45 minutes runtime which makes it the shortest MCU film so far. I wonder how much was cut!

 

[img]

Lots of films have felt pretty fat in last year so hopefully good thing. I dont mind 15 minutes less if its not just keeping some filler.

 

[IvanDobskey]

They could do with cutting another 1 hour 45 if you ask me

 

[VincentHanna]

Final trailer is much more serious in tone

 

[Kyo]

Got the tickets booked for Friday so no more trailers for me. Hope it is not too bad. Phase 4 certainly been underwhelming by a mile.

[MissChief]

Hmm, looked like some of the quantum suits from Endgame briefly there. Reckon there's going to be a cameo or two.

 

[VincentHanna]

Phase 4 certainly been underwhelming by a mile.

We're in Phase 5 now.

Phase 4 was
Black Widow (Crap)
Shang-Chi (Enjoyable)
Eternals (I liked it)
Spider-Man: No Way Home (Excellent)
Doctor Strange: Multiverse of Madness (Decent)
Thor: Love and Thunder (Absolute crap)
Wakanda Forever (Bang average)

 

[Neil79]

We're in Phase 5 now.

Phase 4 was
Black Widow (Crap)
Shang-Chi (Crap)
Eternals (I liked it)
Spider-Man: No Way Home (Excellent)
Doctor Strange: Multiverse of Madness (Average)
Thor: Love and Thunder (Absolute crap)
Wakanda Forever (Bang average)

My thoughts on those, not a lot of difference

Feminists UNITE!

I have to ask why even post in this thread? If all you're going to do in every post is say it's going to be rubbish and flop because it's a feminist woke film.

We're in Phase 5 now.

Phase 4 was
Black Widow (Crap)
Shang-Chi (Enjoyable)
Eternals (I liked it)
Spider-Man: No Way Home (Excellent)
Doctor Strange: Multiverse of Madness (Decent)
Thor: Love and Thunder (Absolute crap)
Wakanda Forever (Bang average)

Would agree with that summary. Phase 4 was definitely a mixed bag with a couple films dragging the average up. Though I don't think Phase 4 was helped by some odd films - Black Widow pretty much being her origin story after she was dead, Eternals and Shang-Chi seemingly being standalone films.

The trailers look like this could go either way but hopefully it'll be good as I think the MCU needs to up the average.
