Movies

And that's not to mention mandating a 2 hr running time by the WB head, likely to get as many showtimes as they could. {nm}

Posted by: -JPV- on Mar 25, 18:08 in response to -JPV-'s post It wasn't a lack of understanding DC, it was rushed so...

Sex Panther has now surpassed Avengers as the top-grossing comic book movie of all time slipping jimmy Mar 25, 11:21

Never bet against sex {nm} JMT-NL Mar 25, 12:48

If "Avengers: Infinity War" doesn't outgross "Black Panther," I'd hope the MCU doesn't shift focus (a la DC with "Wonder Woman"). chosenone2oo5 Mar 25, 13:27

tl;dr. Make no mistake, Black Panther will be the leader (replacing Stark/Iron Man) in Phase 3 or where ever Marvel is at after Avengers 4. {nm} -JPV- Mar 25, 13:30

My point exactly. That worked out so well for Wonder Woman. (NOT) {nm} chosenone2oo5 Mar 25, 13:34

No idea what you mean. Problem with JLEAG wasn't Wonder Woman. {nm} -JPV- Mar 25, 13:37

IMO, the studio knew they had a mess, tried to fix it bringing in Whedon, which didn't work, and came the point where they cut their losse -JPV- Mar 25, 13:38

They probably would've canceled it but they (the execs) pushed on with a Warner/AT&T merger on the horizon. {nm} -JPV- Mar 25, 13:40

Spending 300M on JL and having that mess is embarrassing. WB left 1B on the table by not understand DC {nm} Baron_Darcon2017 Mar 25, 17:38

It wasn't a lack of understanding DC, it was rushed so the execs could get their bonuses before a merger went through -JPV- Mar 25, 18:07

Last one, but didn't help that THOR3 got great reviews so that certainly took oxygen out of the box office. Even THOR3 made like $21.7M -JPV- Mar 25, 18:10

Dr Strange made more money than Justice League (unknown Marvel hero beats DC's top four heroes) {nm} RazorHawk Mar 25, 18:43

And from a technical standpoint, Dr. Strange was better. It also, along with THOR3 doing a lot better, bad press (mostly deserved). -JPV- Mar 25, 18:46

Warner Bros has a history of failure with DC movies... because they do not understand the characters and do not have a plan... RazorHawk Mar 25, 19:26

Whereas Dr. Strange did get the benefit of having the Marvel label. Anyway, I'm done. I just don't care enough about JLEAG at this point. -JPV- Mar 25, 18:49

Did The Avengers cartoon give it away?... RazorHawk Mar 25, 14:05

Seems logical. {nm} -JPV- Mar 25, 15:00

Good. I love seeing the tears of white men as they realize not everything is for them. {nm} Bronzey Mar 25, 15:11

I'm white and don't mind him being the leader *shrug* {nm} -JPV- Mar 25, 15:20

same {nm} ReaperXXX Mar 25, 15:30

And I thought movies were for entertainment. So they're actually a competition between the races? {nm} PhoneHome Mar 25, 17:20

Nice 2 white jewush men could give blacks a fictional history to be proud of, especially since the real ones are testament to corruption {nm} Baron_Darcon2017 Mar 25, 17:45

i can't tell whether this one s anti-semitic or just the usual racist crap you post {nm} slipping jimmy Mar 25, 18:19

its just horribly racist {nm} Moviesnob Mar 25, 18:25

As my mom would have said, "that's just plain stupidity" {nm} Bronzey Mar 25, 18:39

What's incorrect? Stan Lee and Jack Kirby 2 white jewish men created BP. The movie BP and Wakanda are much different than Baron_Darcon2017 Mar 25, 20:55

What's incorrect? You equate the pride in an African-American talent driven film doing extremely well to the point of extreme excellence Catzan Mar 26, 00:48

Next, let's compare Hogwarts to the NATO alliance. {nm} CSBD Mar 26, 03:47

Without Lee and Kirby creating BP the movie NEVER would have happened. Mathematics and science started in northern Africa not sub-saharan... Baron_Darcon2017 Mar 26, 05:08

There’s a lot in this post that is factually incorrect RogerMore Mar 26, 06:29

sounds like you should be the one teaching his students instead {nm} slipping jimmy Mar 26, 13:42

Ha .....The agriculture started in Ethopia was from Jewish (Semetic) settlers in 10 BCE Baron_Darcon2017 Mar 27, 03:15

Again, this is incorrect. RogerMore Mar 27, 15:36

Interesting... never heard of Nok, iron research wasn't unitl 2005, using historical linguistics less accurate but interesting...Lots of Baron_Darcon2017 Mar 27, 22:20

"Education has regressed as well in African as it's no longer under colonial rule" - Just LOL {nm} numbersix_99 Mar 26, 16:38

Yup. Europeans brought railroads, libraries, electricity, agriculture, infrastructure,, etc Watch Empire of Dust on youtube.. Africans didn' Baron_Darcon2017 Mar 27, 03:53

If you're expecting accurate history from Super Hero movies - you need to quit watching them. {nm} JDolphin Mar 26, 18:49

If you're expecting the Super Hero movies to follow exactly (or even close sometines) the movies - then you need to quit watching them {nm} JDolphin Mar 26, 18:50

oops - follow the comic books {nm} JDolphin Mar 26, 18:51

BP will fall short of adjusted Avengers 705M, probably around 690M. {nm} Baron_Darcon2017 Mar 25, 16:24
