On what basis do you not feel they are the majority?

Posted by: Jay_Beezy (a.k.a Jay_Bling) on Feb 14, 11:48 in response to Antibody's post I don't believe they are the majority. More people don't...

The ones to initially cry out for them to not recast are coming off like a vocal minority now.

The reality is most people would want what Chadwick would have wanted. Obviously Chadwick couldn't get a word in before he passed, but I'd say his brother's words, the words of someone who knew him better than most people, count for more than most. And certainly his brother's words could have changed a lot of people's minds.

US-Bookies, betting odds are currently pointing toward DoctorStrange2 as the top grossing film WW for 2022 after the 2nd trailer debut. notfabio Feb 14, 11:06

33% for AVATAR 2 {nm} notfabio Feb 14, 11:07

This is pretty dumb when you compare the gross of the first Dr. Strange vs. the first Black Panther. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Feb 14, 11:13

You could put your money down on BPNT2 at 6 to 1. {nm} Antibody Feb 14, 11:16

Release in China (or not) could be a partial factor but more for Dr. Strange. Dr. Strange did better than Black Panther in China notfabio Feb 14, 11:28

Loss of Chadwick Boseman will hurt it domestically, especially with those who felt they should have recast T’Challa. {nm} Jay_Beezy Feb 14, 11:32

Recasting T’Challa would hurt more from those who feel Bozeman is irreplaceable. {nm} Antibody Feb 14, 11:36

You severely underestimate how many people would have preferred T’Challa recast. Jay_Beezy Feb 14, 11:38

I don't believe they are the majority. More people don't want T'Challa recast. {nm} Antibody Feb 14, 11:42

I could ask you the same. His brother is one perossn. {nm} Antibody Feb 14, 12:00

He’s one person who knew him better than we did so his sentiment counts more than ours. Jay_Beezy Feb 14, 12:07

Unfortunately, most moviegoers haven't heard from his brother but have heard from Feige, Coogler, and the cast. {nm} Antibody Feb 14, 12:24

Kevin Feige and the cast have a stronger voice than his brother. {nm} Antibody Feb 14, 12:02

Kevin Feige and the cast are doing what *they* wanted, not necessarily what Chadwick would have wanted. Jay_Beezy Feb 14, 12:15

Since Chadwick didn't record his wishes, moviegoers will respect the decision of Feige, Coogler and the cast. {nm} Antibody Feb 14, 12:27

We shall see. {nm} Jay_Beezy Feb 14, 12:30

But they’re creating a lot of skepticism by prioritizing what *they* want when it possibly goes against what Chadwick would have wanted. {nm} Jay_Beezy Feb 14, 13:21

AVATAR 2 will make a billion in Asia alone Rishoutfield Feb 14, 14:13

Smart money is AVAT2, unless it gets delayed. {nm} Antibody Feb 14, 11:33

I dunno about Avatar anymore... the backlash has just built as social media has boomed since the first movie's release. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Feb 14, 11:46

If one interprets 2022 literally, then Avatar only gets 2.66 weekends. That may explain why Avatar's odds aren't better. . . Abraxas Feb 14, 15:29

I think I will... 5 bucks will get me 30! Kaching!! {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Feb 14, 11:45

I'd take a flyer on Jurassic at 12:1. It could happen. {nm} Initech Feb 14, 12:49
