Doctor Strange is Feige's favorite character, and the cast and crew assembled for that film shows it is the favored child. I don't think Feige would let it out unless it was going to deliver.
Fucking Ant-man. When he appeared in Civil War he got one of the biggest reaction in the 3 showings i went. He went from who? to HIM!!
Audience knowing characters doesn't have as huge of a bearing on success as people think it does.

Ant-Man and Wasp will see a big bump over the first Ant-Man because of the strong reaction to him in Civil War.

the only Marvel films that might flop are Captain Marvel and Inhumans but since Spider-Man Homecoming screwed up the schedule I'm not sure they're coming out anymore

Lol Wonder Woman is well known everywhere.
Well if you keep saying "the next one" you're bound to be right eventually. The numbers don't lie.

And thats matter how when people on Neogaf claim that her success will based on her stand as a feministic icon and that everyone in the whole world knows her?
And no, I dont want to give anyone a opporturnity to turn this into some stupid argument against me - I want her to have success, I am excited as fuck to see her movie, I just think AmericaGAF thinks once again that their point of view matches the one of the whole world.
Where you from?
saying "it wasn't a flop" is understating how well Ant-man did, i mean its fucking ANT MAN and it earned more than 500 millions
I still really wish it was called Wasp and the Ant-Man
It's supposedly as much Hope's movie as it is Scott's so why not give her top billing?
JTE is no joke, He runs in the same circles that called SS being a mess 5 months out.
It's certified.
I'm not sure what you're saying?
At any rate regardless, proper marketing, good reviews and word of mouth goes a long way.

Yay, new thread title! Been too long since it changed.
So, how much do we think the RT score will fluctuate in the next two days? We have about half the number of reviews that BvS ended with. I forget how low that was at this point.

Wonder Woman is pretty much the only female superhero people know in my country. We had her entire '75 TV series playing here during the nineties! We had local songs about her! One of them mentions her along with MacGyver and Kamen Rider Black in the same verse!
I don't think it will flop, but consider what we're talking about here. dr strange is like a d tier marvel superhero. marvel still has iron man, avengers, captain america and spider-man to pick up the slack.
meanwhile DC is flopping with superman, batman/superman/wonder woman and now joker+harley and friends... what the fuck does that mean for aquaman and cyborg, DC's d tier superheroes?

Yeah. It figures. Suicide Squad was revolving around Joker first. That figures.
I curse Will Smith for ruining this movie. Also the WB executives who ordered new shoots, because it was too dark. Way to go ruining a potentially awesome movie.

Seeing Feige tear up at comic-con had me saluting the dude. I don't agree with every MCU decision, but I can respect the passion.

Sometimes it's easier to write for the lower tier Heros.
Them being unknown could be an advantage.
Just hope for the best I guess

Some people thought Ant-Man would tank and it did solid business at the BO along with good reviews.
It out grossed BvS in China.

are they? man of steel did well, BvS didn't hit a billion but came close to 900. Justice League will probably do a billion.
I think their expectations are too high considering the tone Snyder has brought to the films and the reviews they've been getting. these movies are doing pretty well at the box office though.

I fully expect the Cyborg movie to go 90+%. It's like a wrap-around effect, the worst case for Cyborg is so below 0% that it comes back to a great score.
Oh my sweet summer child...
JL isn't hitting a billion. That thing is unbelievably fucked.

Not playing. I don't post frivolous early reactions.
I wouldn't be surprised if that got canned.
They can't can The Rock.
Damn, i didn't know i had this fetish.
What sucks is Shazam is the one movie out of the bunch I was really looking forward to. The New 52 storyline was tailor made for a film adaptation.
And then have Marvel recruit The Rock to play The Hulk in a tv series.

😁😁😁😁😁
Ok I gotta keep expectations in check bc technically Avatar was a breathtaking movie and I didn't like it much
Tho 'poor DC' kinda implies it's fantastic anyways
WB accounting is the real villain in this case
