And for the SHIELD Hellicarriers to get blown up again!
A Marvel film in May? Time for the yearly AOS one sided crossover y'all.
I still have to see TWS. I got burned out on Marvel, but my friends all say TWS was brilliant. Although, I can't wait for GOTG 2 --- First in line.
TWS is the best MCU film.

Me too. CW should be a great way to completley forget about how awful BvS was.
I can only hope. But that might be asking too much of Marvel.
I really need to see it soon.
BvS is a bigger Box Office GAF draw than the avengers. This thread is our third longest now I believe.
It's true.
I can't believe you are surprised.
You probably are. I made the same mistake with AoU and I still haven't recovered a year on. My hype for superhero movies has been on the floor since that movie, and it was partly self inflicted tbh, I should have known better than to expect so much.
I agree with this.
Of course it is, this isn't 2012 and no one cares about The Avengers.

Or we are in just for the shadenfreude.
They both have their kinks
Should...we call someboyd for help?
Bobby shill game too strong
Conspiracy theorists gonna go nuts if Civil War reviews well in the coming weeks.
You mean when it does.
Do you think episode 8 will have the same success than 7 ? I'm doubtful...
8 won't do as well. 7 was a perfect storm.
It doesn't need to, it will still EASILY run circles around whatever super hero movies are out regardless. Star Wars is much, much bigger than Marvel/DC/etc. People seem to already forgotten just how big TFA was. It could fall a significant amount with 8 and still be in completely different league ahead of the other blockbusters like Avengers, Captain America, Justice League, etc.
*cough*, AVATAR 2, *cough*
The pattern for the previous SW trilogies has been
1: Insanely huge record-breaking numbers
2: Fairly large dropoff(though still good numbers for a normal film)
3: Bounce-back that brings it close to the 1st film
No way to say if that pattern will continue since it depends on things like the quality of the movies and the context of the time period(for instance maybe SW catches on in China and that improves its overseas numbers), but yeah I'd expect a sizeable decrease for episode VIII. Maybe closer to Jurassic World-type numbers.

It will be awhile before we see it, so he was right.

Only a movie like BvS could have 2 record breaking weekends in a row.
Very true! Cameron started production already on it, but that means nothing. Probably 2018-21

BvS. Records going down like this film's RT score and weekend grosses!
I dont see how anything superhero related is touching TFAs domestic total unless we are talking 10 years from now. However that opening weekend and overseas total isnt completely safe from superhero films. Im not sure anything currently announced is up for the challenge though.
Worldwide opening record is gone as soon as Marvel gives up on these early overseas openings. Thats the most fragile record.

I thought we were over this phase Cheebo
Before that happens though we need a James Cameron movie to set a new record that will make hitting 2B look insignificant.
Avatar 2 to make 3.5B confirmed!
The new billion will be two billion. Not sure if it'll happen that soon? You really think in 4 years?
In all honesty I wouldn't be shocked. It's Cameron never doubt.
People already deluding themselves to thinking people are more interested in Cap, Iron Man, and Spider-Man than Rey, Luke, Finn, & co like in 2014 and early 2015. I thought what went down in December would shut up that craziness for at least a few years, apparently not.
When Episode IX makes far more than Avengers 3 in 2019 maybe that will finally shut people up.
Honestly yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if it made that much money either. The legs on James Cameron blockbusters are legendary, and China will probably love it.
More like 6 or 7

We will probably start to see some popular Chinese films to gross 1 billion also.

In a few weeks when Civil War doesn't break BvS worldwide opening, we will see a lot of gloating about how BvS was a bigger hit. Of course those that will gloat will ignore that CW didn't open in every territory at once.

I would love to learn from whom he heard Eisenberg was 'great,' since he's by far the most out of place/out of his depth actor in that movie.
