Avengers 4: Endgame (Joe & Anthony Russo April 26, 2019) Movie • Page 83

Thinking Disney+/Hulu combo (Disney now owns 60% of Hulu and could use it for their more Adult centered programming) is gonna be the way to go before too long. Especially with how often Netflix is raising their prices.

 

why would you want to avoid Disney+?

 

I will be getting Disney+ on the first day. haha

 

Too many streaming services and Disney already has too much money

 

I mean with the amount of content it'll probably have at launch and all of the stuff planned and ready to go, $7 a month is a great deal imho.

 

way better than the almost $20 Netflix is charging for mostly sub par content.

 

If you take advantage of it which I probably wouldn't

 

I feel ya

 

It's literally going to be impossible for me to not sign up for Disney+ at that price. Plus, I mean, The Mandalorian looks like it's going to be amazing.

 

Yeah I’m definitely getting Disney+

 

i would have cancelled Netflix by now but my parents and brother still use it

 

I still use Netflix for someone of its original content (Sabrina, OITNB, Santa Clarita Diet, a couple others I can’t think of right now and now incoming Lucifer). If it wasn’t for those, I’d have canceled when the Marvel shows got canceled.

 

I pretty much just have Netflix for Bojack at this point. Once that's done (probably this next season), I'm out.

 

I only use netflix for Stranger Things, documentaries and to re-watch the same 3 shows I have been for the last couples years. It's a problem.

 

Regarding the team-up moment for all the women, yes it's bit pandering and forced, but so are so many other scenes in the MCU. I loved it. You really get reminded of how many cool female characters there are in the MCU, despite often being relegated to the sidelines and smaller roles. When that scene started, I just thought about all the young girls and women who would see that and get the feeling of joy I probably felt watching the Cap-Thor-Tony moment. That alone validates that scene's existence. It's also just a cool scene in general.

Seeing this for the 2nd time on Fri. Gonna be a long week of anticipation.

 

I thought it was pretty good. Not enough Brie though and I was hoping the Thor really let himself go bit was gonna last for a maximum ten minutes

 

It is easily as pandery/forced as avengers assemble and if you weren't there for both moments then boo you lol

 

Richard Brody is one of the best critics working today

 

Breaking news: 22nd entry in cinematic film saga will contain characters and references from past films without giving all of them an introduction, despite the character already being in past films which many, many people have seen.

 

Yeah, iCarly Rae Jepson sums up my feelings:

 

so weekend actuals are in
Domestic: $357,115,007 29.2%
+ Foreign: $866,526,407 70.8%
= Worldwide: $1,223,641,414

i just copied it from box office mojo

 

So no one is actually reading that Brody review huh

 

so heres something mind blowing but not really. endgame made more money in 5 days over seas then the entire box office run of the last jedi over seas which was in theaters for 126 days

 

Good filmmaking means making every individual film work as a standalone experience, regardless of how much it also builds on the past & is potentially elevated by knowing that past. If a film isn't a satisfactory standalone watch, that's a failure.

Not that failures within a film make the film a total failure, & not that fans can't love it. Movie quality is a complex web of various variables, each w/ varying levels of subjectivity vs objectivity. But, writing off criticism of that sort is lame. It's valid & worth noting when commenting on a film w/ any level of nuance & depth.

(I didn't read the article yet. Just chiming in on the broader conversation.)
