The Superhero Cinematic Civil War of Tomorrow Thread - Part 62

I just realized she must of done shooting while pregnant. Imagine how pissed Joss Whedon would've been if he was still around.

Joss would've been like

Shida.

Seriously Joss hated her seeing as she sleeps with her love interest's kid and makes out with demon dude.

Speaking of WB shows. Holy crap I just saw James Van Der Beek

Popping in here before bed to concur that FF was best CBM this year. You are welcome and that is all

Man, now I am really embarrassed to have lost to you in fantasy football this past week, knowing that you have bad movie takes.

My CBM of the year:

Spoiler

Yeeeeeeah, I see that it’s kicking all kinds of ass at the box office.

I just wish I had the strength for anime like I did when I was younger. All these modern ones all look the same to me.

Seriously, I don’t even know what that cartoon movie is in those pictures.

You DID get embarrassed too

I prefer geek to nerd.

Demon Slayer - Infinity Castle Part 1: Akaza Returns. It's already out grossed F4 WW and will be passing Superman by the end of this one.

Wasn't Scarlett Johansson pregnant during filming for Age of Ultron? Did he say something awful about the experience that I somehow missed?

She was. And I'm sure he wasn't pleased. But that was Feige's ship. On Angel, he got incredibly upset at Charisma Carpenter for daring to get pregnant, took out this anger with her 4th season character arc that saw her, the female lead on the show, written off and then killed off after a one episode return in s5.

Well to be clear, what he got mad about with Charisma was that she kept her pregnancy a secret until she started showing, so the writers and production team had to scramble to work around it at the last minute. He's still a POS and that in no way justifies how he treated her, but it's not a "pregnancy makes him mad" thing.

I like how that makes it sound like the sight of a pregnant person triggers him.

Was this the best comic book movie year since... 2017?

Superman - Went over well with critics, fans, and made money.
F4 - Went over well with critics and fans.
Thunderbolts - Gave us film snobs something worth seeing.
Demon Slayer - Critics and fans loved it, is the second highest gross 2nd animated film of all time, and has is breaking down borders for anime.

Still got Chainsaw Man to go.

Well there was no Madame Web this year. Take that how you will.

You know I still only watched it that one time, at the theater.

I’m so not compelled for a rewatch.

Its odd how I was more compelled to watch a movie from a director who I don't enjoy on streaming more than that movie.

Omg I can’t wait to see how Feige those Russos find a way to ruin that beautiful Earth 828 and Sue.

I just know it’s gonna happen.

Onslaught+Heroes Reborn baby....

Yeeeeeeah, I see that it’s kicking all kinds of ass at the box office.

There is more anime available in the west then there has ever been. On the other hand, jesus ****ing christ Japan, what the hell. I got out of my big interest in anime years ago, and dear god, while the output has increased, it is not necessarily a good thing. Had to kind of look tip toe around with some of the...what I call "JFC Japan" content back then. Now, with the isekai genre being king, good lord.

But hey, Toei is finally getting off its ass and trying to court the international market now, even if Sentai is forever screwed because of Power Rangers.

Still wrote her out for most of the third act.

Demon Slayer and its ilk simply hold no appeal for me but I'm always happy to see the success of anything that gets Americans out of the house and willing to go to the theater and read subtitles.*

*yes, I know there's a dubbed version too.

Good variety in the top 15 at the box office this year. Nice to see. And with Superman probably finishing 11th, it will be easily the highest grossing film in that place since 2019.

I can see him saying it to Trump and I hate Malcolm Spellman so much.

Yeah, people lamenting the relative lack of billion dollar grossers are kind of missing it - this is what a more healthy box office looks like.
