I guess paying Critical Drinker to shill the movie didnt work?

I saw it and though it was "okay". I'm not sure why they had to have Sue Storm screaming out a baby in Zero G in the film though. Like, I have no desire to ever rewatch the movie mostly because of the live birth part just not being pleasant to watch. I wanted a fun action movie and I get dilating jokes and wondering how the fuck the entire ship didn't get filled with afterbirth.

They paid him to be very cynical about the film before its release only to say he was pleasantly surprised by it? It's possible but I don't know what marketing team could stomach paying someone to say their product is shit even if he changes his tone later.

As someone who hasn’t watched an MCU movie (let alone one of the shows) since endgame but everything up to that point let me make it easy.

I don’t watch faggots like critical drinker, I don’t care about social media dweebs.

What I care about is comics. Byrne’s she-hulk is my favorite marvel comic of all time. But by adapting slott’s “ally mcbeal but green” shit instead, making the hulk version of Jen too chunky and ugly rather than thin and pretty they secured me never returning.

Unless, of course, they adapted what is my other favorite marvel run - byrne’s FF - properly. Then they might have had me back.

But, you see, they hired a Hispanic 50 year old as reed, an ugly hag who looks 7 years older than she is as Sue, this ugly fuck as Johnny and a guy who apparently has never heard a New York accent as Ben. Then they made norrin’s wife the herald instead of him. So I lost all interest.

So unless they fire all of the five actors above, redesign she-hulk to be attractive and appeal to me, i’m good, for good.

>OI I'M A SCOTTISH NOVELIST WHO MADE A SHITE FILM!! Did you know movies are bad! This movie didn't beat me with with a leather belt!

Fuck the drinker and fuck you

This is such a dumb article. Are they really going to pretend that Deadpool and Wolverine didn't make a billion last year and Doomsday, Secret Wars and Spiderman are not going to make a billion next year?. Marvel's flops are just smaller characters that were never going to make that much money anyway but their heavy hitters are doing fine. Look at this prediction chart for the biggest movies next year. 2 Marvel films are on it while there are 0 DC films. The MCU will be around with a new X men vs Avengers film 5 years in the Future. Gunn' DCU won't exist one year from now.

Honestly fire feige, ring back Brie and make her wear the black unitard as miss marvel. Make she-hulk hot like: >>149741884 said. Kill off and replace reed and sue with different, more attractive (and white) actors as their alt U versions. Bring back t’challa I don’t care how, and I don’t care about his son or sister or wife. Cast a new Wolverine, never show me jackman again.

Just make smart, obvious decisions. Stop with the subversion and diversity and rage bait.

>>149741359 (OP)
No it did not. Bad movies are bad, whether an alcoholic LARPer tries to make excuses for them or not.

Really tho IMO the main problem is the final act absolutely kills everything else set up at the start f the movie just because they really wanted to give Sue that moment to show off, regardless of how powerful Galactus is supposed to be.

>>149741949
So powerful that she tried up fucking died?

>>149741906
>Just bite the bullet and start putting out X-Men stuff. That's all they have left that will put asses in seats.
And remember.
REMEMBER.
DO NOT INCLUDE THE PHOENIX UNTIL YOU'RE READY TO KILL OFF THE ENTIRE FRANCHISE.

The most consistent thing about the X-Men movies is that every time the Phoenix shows up, the entire franchise fucking dies. I don't know why the writers can't make it work and frankly I don't care. A lesson needs to be learned here. Do not. Include. The cosmic fire chicken. Until you're ready to pull the plug.

>>149741964
Yes. Unironically yes. Fuck, I'd go as far as to say it's bullshit her corpse was intact enough for Franklin to revive. I don't care if it's momma bear hysterical strength, she shouldn't have done shit to a no-bullshit cosmic being. Even the ETERNALS (nobody will admit to watching this movie) needed to form the Uni-Mind to petrify Tiamat while it was still unborn.

It would've been one thing if Sue tripped up Galactus, distracted him with force bubbles or whatever. But physically overpowering the Devourer of Worlds at any point? Fuck you, and Feige. She's not that kind of character, if you wanted a strong woman moment bring in someone like Wanda who was already established to be cosmic level.

>But Sue's super strong in the comics-
I know her strength in the comics, and it's NOT pushing Galactus around-strength AT BASE whether or not it kills her. Honestly, if the movie gave her the Captain Universe powerup I wouldn't have cared if Sue beat Galactus to death. But they really wanted that "touching" sacrifice to be carried by her base powers, and that's horseshit.

>>149741964
Also don't make me remind you Galactus was navigating a FUCKING SINGULARITY earlier in the movie. My suspension of disbelief is shattered that a goddamn black hole is worse at keeping Galactus away than Sue giving it the ole college try.

>>149741610

Lol. Lmao, even. Even as it joked about the idea, Deadpool 3's mere existence proved that studios unironically WANT to keep casting Jackman until he's physically incapable of performing the role.

>smart, obvious decisions
You are asking for too much from today's corporate culture. The idea of making a good movie people would be interested in is less exciting to shareholders than data analytics sourced from multiple marketing teams.

I'd argue it actually is simply because at the current level of investment into CGI studios are seemingly willing to put into X-Men movies, you just cannot have any meaningful conflict once the Phoenix is introduced. Dark or regular, she just operates on a completely different scope to everyone else in a way that's hard for the average moviegoer to accept lets Scott or Logan matter. And let's be honest. The average moviegoer loves Logan a lot more than they love Jean.

>But (insert comic book villain here)
Costs CGI to animate. Raises movie budget. Rising movie budget makes corpo suits sad. Thus, the Phoenix will inevitably be continuously used as either a standalone villain or an end of movie solve-all.

>>149741884
>they hired a Hispanic 50 year old as reed, an ugly hag who looks 7 years older than she is as Sue
This shit baffles me in all honesty. They’re going to look even worse by the time the next one comes out - if there is a next one.

What the fuck were they thinking?

>>149742008
The thing that sticks out to me is like, where do you go from there? Sue is now established as being more capable than pretty much anyone in the MCU outside of Wanda and Carol. Even Thor isnt on that level. Shit I don’t even think carol is. They made Susan way too powerful, the entire point of Franklin and his dreaded future is him being too powerful for them to control so they have the added pressure of needing to raise him well lest he destroy everything.

>>149742342
>by the time the next one comes out
Now that you've pointed it out, I guess casting Reed is kind of tricky. He's a mature man but also one having a blossoming relationship with Sue. Feels like for a franchise intended to go on for more than a decade, you either have to accept a younger Reed (maybe with makeup to make him look older) or gamble on an older actor's genetics.

>Sue is now established as being more capable than pretty much anyone in the MCU outside of Wanda and Carol.
Seeing how they handled Carol (who was barely nerfed by the switcheroo thing in The Marvels, but STILL needed to fight hand to hand with mooks while simultaneously being fast enough to fly between planets in seconds), I imagine they'll just be wildly inconsistent about how powerful she is-just weak enough to have dust-ups with alien mooks.

At least with Thor they can keep finding excuses to stick him in space/the realms of the gods, where everything just kind of scales narratively to be a reasonable hurdle for a thunder god who keeps getting powerups. Even if that trick he pulled giving the kids his powers in Love and Thunder raises some serious questions about why Thor didn't ever do it before. You are just supposed to assume he has Skyfather powers because of merely owning Stormbringer, I suppose.

Outrage Sloptube is having a ball right over First Steps crashout

>>149741949
>regardless of how powerful Galactus is supposed to be.

Yeah, this was my biggest issue with the movie was just Galactus felt like nothing. He didn't seem like a planetary threat, let alone some universal force of nature. He was just big guy stomping around, like for what the finale showed I think I'd be more scared of Godzilla. He need to kinda stomp on them in the manner Sentry did to the Thunderbolts, and the FF pretty much shouldn't have been able to do anything really physical to him like push him or anything like that.

>>149742342
Also I would argue Thor and Carol are sidegrades to each other even if Wanda is clearly the most powerful (ex-)Avenger. Carol is faster in a footrace, yes, but Thor has unspecified magical powers (giving the kids his thunder god powers, catching and releasing Zeus' bolt back at him) and in The Marvels it's shown the Bifrost (which Thor can call with the MCU Stormbringer) can do things Carol struggles with like safely evacuating entire populations off planets. In terms of strength, while Carol probably hits harder (enough to reignite a fucking sun) it seems like that's a function of how their powers work. Thor probably can't hit that hard or he'd have bodyslammed Thanos, beer belly or no, and he got fucked up by that dwarf star. But the Bifrost can carve through an Infinity Gauntlet blast even though a single Power Stone slap sent Carol out of Endgame until the end.

>>149742553
I would argue he had a really good intro, especially the singularity chase scene. The problem was the fight at the end-and not just Sue, but Reed affecting him AT ALL with his stupid improvised shiv-making him a big dumb stompy man to give the supers something "iconic" to do. Especially Galactus almost being fooled by a very obvious trap despite being established to have super-vision early on.

I don't like the Sentry "fight" either (at least in part because the first Suicide Squad movie already did therapy vs vaguely darkness-related superpowers), but I at least respect that it treated his powers appropriately.

That’s not a bet I’d take considering pascal already looks 55 and Kirby looks 45. By the time they’re in a sequel they’ll look like grandparents.

>>149742734
Oh, for sure. It's lose-lose either way, either you get dedicated fans complaining Reed's too young or you end up working with an actor who's going to burn through his looks in months because of the degenerate lifestyle Hollywood encourages.

To be fair they hired the same director to do both phoenix films, despite being separated by a decade.
I'd say that was a glaring issue they should've seen coming. You are literally doing the same movie plot that failed before with the same director they botched it.
"Redemption??"
Nah, not when these turds cost 200M to make and 200-250M to market. You fuck up that bad, you're out.

>>149743496
Seems to be a common trend in Hollywood (like a lot of other industries with shitty business practices) that "experience" and "knowing the right people" are considered more important than actually being fucking good at your job.

Though in the case of superhero flicks specifically, I imagine there is also a problem finding capable talent that actually wants anything to do with capeshit. Look at Nolan. Not a perfect director but on paper, his resume is everything WB would want helming the next Batman movie. There's just one problem. Nolan doesn't want to do Batman movies anymore. Raimi's an even better example because after succeeding with the original Spider-Man trilogy, they bring him back to do MoM...and interfere so much that Wanda's powers are either horror monster-tier or generic energy bolts depending on which scenes you're watching.

The management for these turds is so abhorrent to work with that even the potential money isn't enough to draw in the people they need to make it work.

>>149743565
I remember the director for Shazam 2 commenting on how the studio interference got so disgusting that he just washed his hands and let them do their thing while he cashed in the checks.

>>149743259

Crinkle Dinker is a normalfag. That’s the only reason anyone here needs to provide as to why he shouldn’t be watched or discussed by any of us.

>>149743736
He's a woman hater. I remember watching his review of the latest Terminator, and yikes the movie has a ton of problems and yes the women are many of them, but he was only and exclusively talking about the women for 20 minutes.

>>149743736
This. He's pure beer and pretzels-type "criticism" pretending to have something deeper to say than "ugh, THING". He got big off the really easy to critique low-hanging fruit like NuWars and late stage MCU that tried to pander too hard in the opposite direction, and has been coasting on inertia from that ever since. To a lesser extent the entire trend for diversity/independent strong woman representation in Hollywood has given him an easy talking point for people tired of bad writing in Hollywood, in general.

Honestly I blame his existence on NuWars more than anything, if he didn't have an easy punching bag in Rey I don't think his trite shit would be nearly as popular.

>>149743947
>He's a woman hater
Stop that, you're making him sound more appealing to more than half the anons bothering with this shit thread. What you should do instead is draw attention to his double standards for "acceptable" strong women in film like Ripley, showering them in nothing but praise.

>>149744048
I haven't watched him enough to see him praise any women. I couldn't stand the meme spam and overused sound effects in the editing of his videos.

>>149744202
For my sins, I have; as a general rule of thumb any financially successful action movie from 1980-2000s is Bible gospel to him. He often brings up Ripley as a way of owning girlbosses. Which strictly speaking, isn't incorrect, but as you mentioned does divert from all the other crap wrong with these movies because ragebaiting at Hollywood's latest contrived DEI kickback takes less effort than actually analysing the new movie in the context of the franchise it's from. His Monsterverse reviews are unintentionally funny as a result, because you can tell he hates them and wants to rip into how bad all the human characters-male and female-are, but he also knows his audience well enough to swallow his bile and just go "Well they MIGHT be shite but...it's fun, alright???"

I am sincerely remorseful for using him as white noise, for boosting him on the algorithm in any way.

The reason he got successful for my money is actually the same reason a lot of the douchey overtly left-wing YouTubers like SaltyDKDan got popular in the 2019 wave, and that’s the combination of talented users quitting the internet and Stockholm syndrome among their fans. When I started watching Critical Drinker around the time he released his Joker review, I actively knew that I didn’t like him and thought he was a dumb normalfart, and that the only reason I was going along with him being algo’d to me was because most of the people I cared about online had jumped ship and I was just miserable and needed a trash fire to huddle around until I figured out what the fuck to do next. The real issue is all the sadistic cunt communists who use him as a pincushion for all their douchey out-of-touch anti-Gamergate rhetoric and ironically sound phrases like TRIGGERED!!! and FACTS DON’T CARE ABOUT YOUR FEELINGS!!! off of him constantly, because they think he’s representative of me.

>>149744342
>because they think he's representative of me
I feel your pain. Like I said earlier I just needed something to listen to while playing AC6 matches without getting bored by the soundtrack, and clicking was easier than fighting the algo for something actually good.

Man, I'm just glad I got into FilmCow, Cynaide & Happiness, and zefrank way back in the day. Seeing how many longtime youtubers crash out, it's amazing my childhood favourites stayed both active and maintained consistent quality.

I remember penguinz0's content from before he became the internet drama/world news/smoothbrain review guy. It's completely unrecognisable now his channel is his full time job and incentivises him to be as milquetoast about everything as possible. I do find it commendable he's a lot less, well, cancerous than most in his field, it's just bitterly disappointing to see where he came from and where he ended up

>>149743947
If we are being honest, films like terminator have led to furiosa and ballerina to being box office bombs. The well is poisoned for any action/superhero female led movie. And he liked furoisa.

>>149741897
I don't forsee DWP doing too well. It's not the right time for it, it's been YEARS and people are sequel weary. Sort of like FF I wouldn't be surprised if there was some initial weekend interest followed by a steep drop as word spreads it's mid. Same for Dune 3, I feel like the second one shat the bed at the end. Perhaps people will come back for this one, but I know from the books this is where things start to get a weird so I wouldn't be surprised if its polarizing.

I've only heard bad things about Moana 2. While it wouldn't surprise me if it gets attention like Lilo & Stitch did, I know that and Mufasa left a bad taste in everyone's mouth so there's a chance this one will under perform even if it doesn't flop.

Odyssey I don't forsee doing well but it might surprise everyone. Its the right rime for it (though I was seeing they wokeified it, which will upset the target audience.) People gloss over this but Oppenheimer almost flopped before they astroturfed Barbenheimer as a thing, which really only worked because a lot of girls told their boyfriends if they took them to the girly movie they could go see the boy movie after, and there was a bit of a male reaction to the girly movie dominating the Summer. Odyssey won't have that boost which might make it under perform, if not flop.

Shrek 5 is a toss up. Everyone loves Shrek, but everyone is already expecting this one to be garbage that ruins the franchise because Shrek comes out of the tv and learns what TikTok is sounds like a terrible plot for a movie.

Spider-Man should do well unless they really screw it up. That's going to come down to how gay Holland is and if they actually cast him a pretty White love interest or not.

Avengers I'm not optimistic about but it will have Tony Stark. If it's at least above average they might be able to pull off the twofer, otherwise I forsee this one doing reasonably well, instilling a false sense of security in them, then the next one bombing HARD.

>>149741906
The 60's aesthetic was weird and insulting to me because it was obvious they were trying to make it seem like it was more authentic and pull the whole "First superhero" thing like they like to do with Superman. However, it was obvious they weren't doing an accurate adaption or any 60's story so it just felt hollow and like an inauthentic red flag. It also didn't even match their actual aesthetic they had in the 60's.

>>149742101
>No. Hire someone actually attractive.
It's sad because if this was 2009 when she was on United States of Tara and Scott Pilgrim she WAS attractive and I had a crush on her, but now it's like a decade plus later and she's hopped up on sexless girlboss feminism. The moment has passed. No more "sex robot"

Culture war broke people's minds. I certainly agree that these movies are awful, and often it is because of many of the reasons they say they are. But they got so used to crying wolf that it basically become the only thing they say. Ya Boi Zack has gone equally mental in commenting on them but he is right in the regard that these youtube commentators don't actually want shit to get better. They actively look for reasons to condemn these films. You'll get a video were they push something good rarely but on the whole they know that once the "ANTI WOKE CRITICISM" dies down they won't have anything to bank on.

>>149742538
I think the trick is hiring an "older" actor that looks young still. I don't think they'd luck out on a Tom Cruise (would've been perfect) but someone like Brad Pitt, or RDJ who maintained their looks for awhile could work.

They also need to just accept it's not going to work unless Sue is 10-20 years younger than Reed like in the comics. She needs to be hot and also to be able to stay hot during the course of the franchise and hiring a 40 year old woman is not going to cut it for a Hollywood Heartthrob. Yes, it will upset Tumblr. No, they shouldn't care.

>>149744480
>The moment has passed
Pretty much, yeah. Aging and corporate ideology is a nasty cocktail, especially when to add insult to injury when that didn't work she tried to thirst trap on Youtube and failed hilariously. And it's a damn shame because honestly, she was perfect in the role of Envy Adams. Not just the bitchy part, but the brief show of vulnerability at the end to communicate that Envy was a normal person before the Scott rage and fame ruined her.

I don't think there even are any up and coming Hollywood stars I'd find attractive anymore. The well truly is poisoned to the extent the most likely candidates are probably just doing onlyfans or something tamer without needing to deal with casting couches. At least girls have Timothee as their generation's Robert Pattison?

>>149744513

I agree. There are literally none. The last two I can think of are Snood and Sadie Sink, but their moments are kind of passing as they gradually wall and there's no one after them. You used to be able to at least check some younger actresses from various movies or tv shows to see what kind of cuties might be coming down the pipeline but there are none anymore it's all some mixed diversity cocktail. The only hope would be if they import some girls from Australia who look like the H2O chicks, though I doubt it. There are countless beautiful girls still out there, they just don't want to hire any of them because it doesn't support the agenda. I honestly believe the reason Weinstein went down is he tried standing against the agenda so he could keep casting couching pretty girls so they took him down.

>>149744530
I'll go one step further and say that Cloud Galactus was more threatening than the current fag, simply because he was treated as an actual force of nature.

Naming him Gah Lak Tus on the other hand to try to get away from the comic name as if it sounds any less silly, that was unforgivable

>>149744523

Part of me thinks this, and part of me thinks they either drank the Kool-Aid or are getting some kind of BlackRock/NGO money for doing it. Either way, it's a united front to stand against cool stuff and make everything lame.

>>149741359 (OP)
They don't pay for good reviews. That's just the agenda you try and push and when it clearly isn't the case you try and flip flop like this thread.

>>149744560
Oh I definitely think it ultimately all comes down to BlackRock/NGO money trying to maximise the potential market demographic at the expense of an existing one because...well, pretty much everything comes down to money when you get down to it. I just think that at the middle management level, "the analytics say this is what the loudest and most numerous internet voices want" is the line of reasoning being used to promote it.

>>149744553
More to the point, I think the combination of Hollywood becoming increasingly unflattering to work for-especially after Weinstein got had-and social media letting those girls trade on their looks from their bedroom without ever touching a man IRL is just disincentivising all those potential stars out there from even trying to apply.

All the most ambitious potential actresses are being filtered out of the recruitment pool by the knowledge they can just show their tits online, get quick cash in hand, and try for a different career in a few years if it doesn't work out instead of devote their life to acting.

Nta but I'd argue she needs more muscle, and that would go against the MCU's policy of not showing off the bodies of their female characters too much. Well, either that or covering up the fact they seemingly don't know how to hire athletic-looking women who can also act.

At least in the case of Hela, Cate Blanchett's stage premise helped pass the fact that she was an almost 50 year old woman playing a warrior goddess of death. And, credit where it's due, she did it well despite the movie severely limiting her screentime with the retarded Sakaar subplot.
