I think this movie is going to do better than the internet thinks, and I think the RED HULK sells this movie and with this opening on Valentines Day, the marketing will play into this. We need a review is what we need, an early screening review from an unbiased reviewer who's not in this to shit on the movie because a Black man is in the title role now, albeit briefly until Evans returns, but still..

EXPECTATION: I've been trying to piece together the plot of this movie and if this movie has undergone 3 reshoots, then this must've been when they included the RED HULK? Sam Wilson stands no chance, but Bruce Banner does and we haven't seen the HULK be INCREDIBLE since AGE OF ULTRON(I don't include THOR RAGNAROK because he wasn't speaking in ULTRON and was just SMASHING. He shows up in this movie to do just that with the RED HULK and the audience does this:

REALITY: In the comics, Betty Ross becomes the RED SHE HULK. If Banner is not in this and it turns out Liv Tyler fights her own father, then audience reaction will be this:

this is actually really interesting, but since i dont follow this kind of stuff i ask this: tracking this far out, do people actually get ticket pre sales this far out to be this accurate? and do these really early number end up being wildly off after it's all said and done for the movies, or do they generally stay in the same area as the other tracking numbers that are closest to release day?

like generally speaking.. kind of curious.. getting ticket presale for a movie so early not something i'd do..

I have done it for an event type of movie, but I'm not considering this Captain America an event type of movie, so I will wait for the reviews. If Ruffalo and the HULK aren't in it and they pull some Disney over powered feminist shit with bringing in RED SHE HULK like in the comics?? Then I'm done

[–] cattntaw (406) 6 days ago

ok good information. presales. and so for some, decision to go to movies really is based in part on critical reviews. i've wondered about that.. and what kind of percentage of people it affects. there was a recent kind of debate about the Sony CEO saying critics hurt Madame Web and Kraven and others saying it didn't..

i've perhaps always had a different process.. i dont think i've ever dont pre sale for tickets and dont ever see reviews...sometimes they even spoil too much..i wouldnt want to see any before going in

interesting! 👍

[–] BKB (10672) 6 days ago

The problem with Kraven was still being attached to SONY with no end game in sight for the characters they do own. Either sell them to Disney/MARVEL or face losing alot of $$$$$ putting their spin on them. Madame Web looked like it should've went straight to Disney+

[–] cattntaw (406) 6 days ago

has it ever been explained why they just dont fucking put spider man in one of those movies? i thought they had the rights!

[–] BKB (10672) 5 days ago

You would've thought putting SPIDER-MAN, Kraven's Nemesis for Heaven's sake, in the movie just for continuity sake. Now I do like the rumor of SPIDER-MAN & The PUNISHER fighting the HULK in SPIDER-MAN HOMECOMING IV. Please for the love of God, make this happen

[–] cattntaw (406) 5 days ago

DUDE fuck yeah i hate rumors because that shit either never comes or just just ruins the surprise 😄 but even just PUNISHER would be fucking awesome but all all of those..!! i'm in!

and i dont know if they dont have an explanation... if they dont put spider man in a sony movie i wonder if they're trying but tom holland won't play ball and they don't want to risk a sony universe with a new different guy who turns out to be a dud compared to the real deal.🤷‍♂️ HOWEVER, as crappy as it is to not have OG spidey i am kind of betting right now that their live action Miles could be a big hit at least based on the animation popularity, so long as they don't fuck up the writing (like madame web: no powers/costume battles). maybe they just dont want to compete 1 for 1 with holland on the OG front.. he's too powerful! 😄

I think the MCU fanbase is pretty starved for a familiar movie. I expect this to do good even if it sucks.

[–] cattntaw (406) 6 days ago

hasn't even been a year yet. these are fucking cocaine addicts or what 🏔

i have a new theory: Marvel Rivals is blowing the door wide open getting people pumped back into Marvel again

[–] TandyMan (11214) 6 days ago

they're maniacs! but I kind of meant Avengers classic without all the cosmic and weird magic nonsense. good old fashioned punch em up with political intrigue and bro beefs.

[–] cattntaw (406) 6 days ago

hah true! ah i see. i wonder if Deadpool still falls out of that description.. sure there's the Void and not any politics but Avengers had Dr Strange and his portals and no political intrigue since Civil War perhaps... well whatever I'm just glad interesting is kinda coming back.. and especially the new online game which finally is having great success out of nowhere, becoming very popular against Overwatch... when the last Avengers game bombed hard!

[–] TandyMan (11214) 6 days ago

That stupid Deadpool movie was a clown party. Yeah, I had a good time watching it but it didn't scratch my MCU itch. I need connective tissue to RDJ whooping ass.

[–] cattntaw (406) 5 days ago

hahaha well they got your view thats what counts! i'll be watching this captain america.. interestingly i sort of feel like the time when the MCU really "felt" like an MCU was when Avengers movies come round and before that it was almost self contained single hero movies with maybe tiny connected post credits. i imagine brave new world will be the same so to wait for an MCU to be MCU yep gonna need to wait for next Avengers

Is anyone outside of comic book readers even aware that Red Hulk exists?

[–] BKB (10672) 5 days ago

That is a good question and probably not, but the marketing has been pretty spot on and made sure to show him alot so by Feb 14th, you'll know who he is and will satisfy probably the fans of HULK for their fix until Disney let's go of Banners balls and lets him HULK SMASH again

[–] AndyKing1967 (39236) 5 days ago

Not that slightly obscure characters are bad for box office (Guadians of the Galaxy anyone?).

One of the disappointing parts of Endgame was Banner running around in an exo-skeleton.

[–] BKB (10672) 5 days ago

The 1st time I saw END GAME, within like 15 minutes of watching this, I was Polarized at how badly the HULK looked and if that weren't bad enough we got Fat THOR. I'm a big, BIG HULK fan and grew up on this character and sometimes, I feel a fan should be writing these movies instead of a corporate chosen Director like Disney did with the Russo Bros, though they did juggle quite a few characters better than Joss Whedon would've done

[–] AndyKing1967 (39236) 5 days ago

Infinity War is one of my favourite films of all time because the good guys lost.

I loved Endgame, but there were a couple of eye roll moments.

[–] BKB (10672) 5 days ago

That was a bold move having the good guys lose. I felt like END GAME was more of it being "The DEATH OF SUPERMAN" storyline for Tony Stark after putting in 12 years as the character and a sendoff of sorts. They pretty much could've wrapped up INFINITY WAR with one movie based on THOR cutting off THANOS head 10 minutes in END GAME
