What's wrong with Black Panther?
God knows they need to appease the SJWs by having more main characters that aren't white dudes anyway.

He became popular the past 4 years? There isn't substance to his origin/life. Guy was written back in 1960s and finally has had like 3 good story lines in 50+ years. Those 3 are even pushing it since one of them was Civil War, and they shoe horned him and his entire country into it to gain a foothold to attracting minority kids buying a shit written story. It's a black daredevil in Africa whose family hated him even tho he has been gifted with magical abilities.
I'm all for heroes/villains getting their movies. At least make those who are going to be on the big screen the ones who have a real history/following to them.
Hell go for Namor banging all the landwalkers chicks while seahorses are circling around his feet. That shit would sell.

comes to the same thing. at least before they had a movie guided by someone's vision, now you have a movie nobody wants to make with a director for hire to slap shit together.

The reign of mediocre comedies and boiler plate sequels has been interrupted long enough.

For me, Hollywood now only cares about super hero movies, raping our childhood memories and trying to beat some dead horses even more.
There is no really any room for creativity.
They even make movies about 2nd category super heroes

I know, right? I'm not saying this is going to be Guardians of the Galaxy good, but it is like people want there to be a flop for some reason. Why? We're still going to get a slew of superhero movies to finish out this decade whether Ant-Man does well or not, so why not hope it is worth watching? Given their track record, it probably will be anyway. Having just rewatched all of the Marvel movies recently, even Iron Man 3 is better than most movies that get released every year.
More than likely the flop(s) will come from the DC side of things first anyway.

I think it depends on Marvel Studio's expectation. What do you guys define as a flop?
Is it a flop if it makes a profit for the studio?
Is it a flop if it has an awesome story but does poorly at the box office?
Or vice versa is it a flop if it has a terrible story but makes shitload of money?
What box office amount is considered a flop? 200M? 100M? 75M?
I think it's gonna be an interesting movie, with the usual quality that Marvel has been given us and make between 75 to 125 millions which will probably be considered a success by Marvel studios, I doubt they expect a 200M movie from An-Man.

Are you talking domestic or worldwide? Because there is zero chance this movie makes less than $200m worldwide. I'd guess it will probably make at least $500m. And I'm quite certain they do expect numbers like that, why wouldn't they?

It will make 200 million, it will have good/great reviews, this thread will be full of people saying they are shocked(SHOCKED) at how much better it was than they expected.

Who thefuckhell is "Hollywood"?Here's all the movies released this year. What is it you think you're missing out on because Bill Hollywood, the President of Movies, only cares about super hero movies and raping your childhood?

Bunch of nutjobs in this thread. This movie is going to be great. I was hesitant after first hearing about it, but after seeing the poster and hearing more about it, as well as seeing the awesomeness that is Guardians of the Galaxy, I'm extremely excited to see this. It'll be a day 1 watch for me, just like GotG and all other Marvel movies.

My thoughts exactly. Until they let me down several times in a row, there is no way I won't be seeing the first possible showing I can make for each of their movies. And then pirating them to watch for the month or so before I can buy the bluray, which I will watch many more times over the years. Hell, I'm even stoked about the Black Panther movie and I never liked him in the comics.

Go figure a guy who routinely shits up the Politics thread doesn't like a movie that leans heavily toward political thriller.
