SOZINN:So out of the 15 post-Endgame movies released so far. Only 6 are hits.
|
MSGAMBLE9:This niggah is talking down on Marvel golden era. You have the audacity to compare it to post-Endgame era. Not even the die hard MCU fans would do that. Bro abeg no try this thing again o |
MSGAMBLE9:Yes, I'm sure all is well with the MCU. Maybe I'm just talking nonsense and made up bullish!t. Disney CEO was probably talking out of his ass when he made this statement
|
MSGAMBLE9:Of course, not all post-Endgame MCU movies are trash. But the truth is, the majority of them are. Let’s go through the full list of MCU films released after Endgame and break down which ones were average or just plain underperformed. Spider-Man: Far From Home A billion-dollar movie riding the momentum of Endgame. Plus, it’s Spider-Man—Marvel’s biggest and best-selling character. No surprise it was a hit. Black Widow This movie flopped so badly, Scarlett Johansson sued Disney. Yes, it came out in 2021 (a COVID year), but it’s still a flop, forgettable and below average. Shang-Chi Good movie, sure. Still a flop. Eternals The first MCU movie to go rotten on Rotten Tomatoes. Not only did it flop, it damaged the franchise. You’ll never see the Eternals again, not even as a cameo. Spider-Man: No Way Home Massive fan service with all three Spider-Men. Obviously, it was a hit. Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness Released in 2022, this was the first time the MCU had back-to-back hits since Endgame. Thor: Love and Thunder Made money, but no one likes it. It underperformed, and Taika Waititi has been in director jail ever since. Black Panther: Wakanda Forever Not as good as the first. Slightly underperformed but still a win overall. Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania One of the worst comic book movies of all time. The damage this film did to the MCU will take years to fix. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 James Gunn doesn’t miss. Solid movie. The Marvels The biggest box office bomb in MCU history. Cost over $220M and didn’t even make that back. A complete disaster. Deadpool & Wolverine Another multiverse cash grab built to pander to X-Men fans. Full of cameos and fan service—because that’s apparently the only way the MCU can make money now. No wonder they’re rushing to bring back Robert Downey Jr. for the next Avengers. Captain America: Brave New World Nothing to write home about. No redeeming qualities. Thunderbolts Not bad, not good. Just there. Another big flop. Now let’s talk about the Disney+ shows: WandaVision – Decent. The Falcon and the Winter Soldier – Mid. Loki – Decent. Hawkeye – Mid. Moon Knight – Mid. Ms. Marvel – Mid. She-Hulk: Attorney at Law – Disgusting. Secret Invasion – Makes She-Hulk look like prestige TV. Echo – Did anyone even watch this? You can defend the disastrous post-Endgame run all you want, but let’s not pretend Phase 1–3 was ever this messy. Between 2008 and 2019, Marvel released 23 movies. Only two were genuinely bad: Thor: The Dark World and Captain Marvel. Now compare that to the post-Endgame era. Be serious. |
oyaskii:If Fantastic Four fails, that's a wrap on every superhero movie that is not a guaranteed box office draw. In fact, I believe that is where we are right now. The only movies Marvel has in active development are Spiderman and Avengers. Kevin Feige will never make a movie about B-list characters ever again. |
Samistry2:Given how No Way Home ended, I think a darker serious tone is the only direction to go. I don't understand how Peter loses his aunt and best friends, ends up completely alone, and then suddenly goes back to being funny and acting like a typical teenager. I think we will get a Spiderman that is more mature like Tobey Maguire. |
Brand new day. Brand new suit. A much darker and serious film...(my answered prayers). Yeah I'm excited. This is the only Marvel movie I'm looking forward to next year, yes I know there's an Avengers movie coming but nothing about that excites me as much this.

August is looking good ![]()

All the critics that were raving about this movie deserve to be flogged. It took me two days to finish 28 years later. The only part of the movie that makes sense is when the kid and his dad went to the mainland. After that the plot got nonsensical, everything about the movie just dey vex me. A 12 year old who can barely kill zombies took his sick mother to a zombie infested land to find a doctor. At the end the journey turned out to be a complete waste of time. In addition to the weak plot, this movie is also boring. When the credits rolled I was asking myself, "is that it? What is the point of this movie?" 28 years later is a 2/10 Please avoid it. |
This is a big surprise I have never seen a comedy get so much positive buzz since Game Night 2018

DO NOT WATCH THIS MOVIE AT HOME James Cameron's Avatar was made for the big screen. I remember seeing Way of Water in cinema and my god, those visuals were breathtakingly stunning. Fire and Ash could be bigger and better. Make I go lock 10k inside piggyvest because on December 19th, I will be there no matter what.
|
We're getting not just one but two more Navi clans in Fire and Ash
|
BlackManta:Sky Navi, water Navi and fire Navi Bro took inspiration from The Last Airbender |
On December 19th James Cameron is serving visuals https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nb_fFj_0rq8?si=TV2Y5y4T58_OGyO0 |
abduleez1:Why is China rejecting CBMs? Venom 3 earned $90m+ over there last year and now Supes and F4, far better movies, can't even sniff $20m+ Is this CBM fatigue or something else? |

I'm glad we're finally getting a good F4 adaptation but man, bar is really low. The fourth time is the charm...
|
December 19th Will you be there?

joseph1832:Worse |
Degrezhaa:Nope. I wrote it after. My mistake. |
abduleez1:If Gunn is casting based on acting prowess, then there's no better actress that fits WW than Elizabeth Debicki. She's 6"3 tall. She's an accomplished TV drama actress, won a golden globe and Emmy for portrayal of Princess Diana in The Crown, a very iconic role. Only two years older than David, so not too old and not too young either. Only downside is her physique. She's really slim. Some would even call her skinny but that can be fixed with dieting and exercise. She's worked with Gunn before on GOTG vol 2 and 3. Gunn is known to use the same actors across different films.

joseph1832:Sorry bro |
bentenny:SPOILER WARNING Did we watch the same movie ![]() Superman only lost to one person in the whole movie. Ultraman, his cl**e, who was being controlled by Lex, the genius billionaire who studied Superman and the way he fights and even developed his own counter moves to defeat him. The movie even states at the beginning that Superman is the most powerful metahuman in the world and he has never lost a battle in over 3 years...until Ultraman. Bro beat Ultraman and the Engineer, beat all of the Lex's goons in a few seconds. Escaped a pocket dimension with kryptonite poison in his body and saved many people when the city was falling apart. So tell me again which movie did you watch ![]() |
MacDaddy01:Lagos too cost Viva Cinema charges 7000 with popcorn and drink @Enugu That's the cheapest option right now. |
Baddestguyp:I like Henry Cavill Superman but Snyder was too focused on making him look cool as fvck all the time. There's a scene in Batman v Superman where a courtroom full of people exploded and Superman just stood there aura farming. https://youtube.com/shorts/szbyQ0UaigY?si=euvqvqvMExFixg-4 |
Tboy2050:Is it good? |
