Captain Marvel: The MCU's First Failure?

[Fuzzy Necromancer]

You wish.

Based on what posts on this site?

I was alluding to Trek.

It’s a success.

It could be like TFA...

It did bite them in the ass long term.

Could be, but that only amounts to speculation.

We shall speculate and the poeple who were right and wrong shall use the final results as ammo...

More like "we shall speculate and the people who were wrong shall insist they aren't wrong and that's not what they meant anyway"

One need only look at what has happened to Marvel Comics to see what will happen to the MCU should they adopt the same politics.

Meh. Captain Marvel isn't a tent-pole movie. Avengers is, sure. Phase three has been finited nonetheless and they are just getting ready to start phase 4 with all the newer characters. All this speculation on Captain Marvel being a misstep foolishly trying to appeal to progressive agendas is full of hot air.

You think making the MCU partisan political is a good idea?

I think Disney can pull it off based on the reasoning I stated.

Quite clearly, at $910 million I think they did.

We talking about motherfucking partisan American politics jammed into the MCU and you predict long term success?

There's an inclusion effort for Captain Marvel. It's the last movie for phase 3 and it's meant as a penultimate installment before Endgame. For what you say of jamming politics in the MCU can be described as springboarding a prominent female superhero on the future team before Robert Downey Jr and Chris Evans and possibly others step down.

There's no partisan politics in "look we have a woman hero now and she's pretty badass", unless you include dipshits practicing their victimhood as part of that.

[Makeshift Python]

Just you wait, it’s gonna be another Ghostbu- oh...

Just you wait, it’s gonna backfire like Star Wars.

It's bipartisan fundamentally, though the left is a bit more concerned with inclusion and representation.

But also, like, it's not a case about the MCU here, it's just Captain Marvel, and it's mild mannered.

The left is more concerned with representation in films, but conservatives shouldn't be objecting to it unless people are just admitting that they think its controversial for women to...exist.

The only thing partisan about Captain Marvel were the actress's comments, which should exist separate from the movie. The movie itself was about some lady getting superpowers because a space engine exploded in her face.

I wouldn't call them conservatives. It's more just gatekeeping.

It's not about what's in the movie, but anything going on around it. A bunch of people are excited about it for its representation, so of course to spite that you get reactions to the progressive initiatives being commercialized by Disney.

Why is Kathleen k in public relations exile exactly?

How the fuck you gonna gatekeep when all you have is Netflix jerking jerking you off under the table, Craig S. Zahler, Clint Eastwood almost in his grave, Hallmark Channel? maybe? and maybe Peter Berg?

The motherfuckers just fucked up the Star Wars goldmine for the sake of politics...

They don't do that, tell the press to fuck themselves when they demand things and they are happy.

I was under the impression that you said if they put the pedal to the medal Star Wars style it will be great.
