Captain marvel...you go gurl

They may have wanted to appeal to feminists with this movie, but the real audience is guys who like comic books. I think I read somewhere the crowd going to see this film are 60% male. The other 40% is probably mostly the dates the guys drag to see it. This character isn't well known like Wonder Woman, women aren't going to flock to see it.

Gal Gadot is HOT! That’s why I watched WW.

These movies are highly successful. I don't think the Manosphere has reached the mainstream influence necessary to take down one of these movies yet. It may get there eventually, but I don't think it's there yet. It might impact the final box office, but it will still be profitable by a large margin.

This movie isn't successful, people have to see it because it's related to EndGame, which is what everyone is waiting for.

Captain Marvel is over 760 million and approaching a billion. 55% male audience It's a different world gents.

Oh well, next problem.

At least I'm not weird!

What basically happens is that someone declares war on you and half of your people happily cheers the invading army as if thats what cool people do.

Its amazing how dumb the average man can get sometime, no woman ever no matter how dumb or stupid would support in any way something against them as sex or trying to belittle them.

Should be a sticky. It actually might become my sig (nevermind, it's too long).

I bit the bullet and saw it. It was much better than expected. It was a middle of the pack Marvel movie. My only gripe is they could have cast a hotter actress to play her.

I don't know how hot she is, but just looking at Brie Larson irritates me. It's because I know she's a man hater, I guess.
The movie's about to hit $1 billion worldwide though, so it's definitely not going to lose money.

So this movie has crossed $1 billion now worldwide, and has $374 million domestic. Pretty amazing considering Avengers: Age of Ultron topped off at $459 million (domestic). Makes me wonder what Avengers: Endgame will gross, it comes out at the end of the month.

Kind of confusing to an old man to see movies named Captain Marvel and Shazam out at the same time. I get the two mixed up (because the Shazam character was originally named Captain Marvel).

Saw an interesting interview on Joe Rogan. Guy was saying that the reasons movies are sucking more and more AND making more and more money is they are essentially making them for a global-non-english speaking audience.

So the stories and characters have to be simple enough for a non-English speaker to enjoy without missing the unique amercian nuances that come across in usa only movies.

So they really are pure comic book adaptations. If you imagine the amount of intelligence required to read and enjoy a comic book, that's about the same level they are shooting for with blockbuster movies.

Avengers Endgame will be the highest grossing film of all time. First weekend is already sold out most places.
