Oh yeah, I forgot he literally swam under the border to get into Wakanda. The main thing I remember about him is just how retarded he looked throughout the film with his stupid ears and tiny wings. I know that's how he looks in the comics, but it looks stupid there too, and it's especially stupid to see that shit on some half naked midget.

Does anyone care about it anymore? Seems interest is dead to me. They'll have to reboot X-Men or something, but last I heard they were making everyone black so good luck with that.

"Sin amor" (what a retarded origin to a name) can stay like that forever forgotten.
If you want Namor to work, you need somebody with the physique of Jean Claude Van Damme during his prime, full of confidence and looking at fucking everything and everyone with absolute disdain and disgust except for Susan with the intent to cuck Reed for the nth time. If it has to be a nigger, put the Old Spice guy in there, but due has to be a walking sculpture.

I didn't realize I confused Paul Rudd with Ryan Reynolds. You're still right though.

Ryan Reynolds has played himself going on 20 years and people confuse that for talent/charm

To be fair, I'd rather see a bunch of cute cats over captain flat ass and her dull face.

It's always been funny to me, "we want this movie about a female superhero to break stereotypes and empower women, to give little girls someone to look up to like little boys look up to Superman or Captain America. But women don't flock to superhero movies, how can we attract them?"

I knew Marvels wouldn't make as much as the first movie, but didn't expect the tracking to be this bad. Right now it could gross as low as $45 million, which is below the Flash's opening weekend.
Even if it has way better legs than the Flash which topped out worldwide at $270 million, no way in hell will Marvels be profitable with a crazy $270 million+ budget.
Best case it could open up to close to $75 million on the highest ending of tracking, but with its budget, even that would be a trainwreck. If the lower-end tracking is right, then it could lose more money than Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.
Already see the fanboy blaming the strike for stopping the actors from doing the press tour, which would have impacted the box office but not to this level. Marvel has bigger issues and really needs to change their upcoming plans before the cameras can get rolling again.

I think it's more those are the cats which are actually terrifying alien creatures that can kill people and devour them whole, from the first Captain Marvel movie. Or are all cats like that? I can't remember and don't care enough to look it up.

Yes, that's the gimmick but the point is "to attract female audiences to our gender stereotype-breaking movie, LET'S LURE THEM IN WITH CATS"

The best part of Marvels flopping is that disgusting bitch Brie Larson can't blame it on evil trolls and cope endlessly on social media due to the SAG strike.

By comparison the Five Nights film has nearly hit 100 million, and it had peanuts for budget.

You really think she won't find a way to blame evil men for this?

She will but the strike will limit her ability to lash out as it would violate the ban on promotion.

It would've had an uphill battle even without Brie poisoning the discussion surrounding it. Three female leads, tenuous importance to the MCU as a whole and Loki basically taking up all the attention right now.

Looking back at the MCU fascinates me as a comic meta nerd.
Most of the Avengers outside its founders and especially the Big Three (of Cap, Iron Man, Thor, Hulk as the fourth now that he's regained core member status) really aren't meant to be solo characters and so their sequel attempts are obviously falling flat. Even Ant-Man was a founding member yet he became equivalent to Martian Manhunter as a founder who remained in the team book and thus never really got many solo adventures, and Wasp is like if Robin became a founding Justice Leaguer. And even the Big Four, while solo book leads with their own distinct corners of the universe, are decidedly B-list in sales and pop culture till the MCU compared to THE A-list solo lead, Spidey. And per how Marvel Comics's big selling point was interactions between characters of course the guys with solo trilogies truly shone as, well, the Avengers. Assembled. This is in comparison to DC, whose A-list are solo book heroes and function best as such, and as beloved as the teams of the JL and Titans are... they really aren't ensembles from the ground-up like the Fantastic Four, X-Men, and the like are.
Nonetheless I was excited very early on to see the Big Four's solo trilogies be... well, solo trilogies. I think it would've been really cool to see the Big Four flesh out and distill their solo corners to the public in the EXACT same vein Batman and Superman the Animated Series did for those guys, and Marvel Comics could've seized the chance to have both strong A-list solo book heroes (outside Spidey) AND teams (no one's denying the X-Men and FF blow any pure-ensemble DC teams out of the water) alike for an extremely strong core universe. But instead Cap's third film became Avengers 2.5 (even if I quite liked it) and Thor became a duo Thor-Hulk movie, when perhaps they could've had a second solo Hulk movie somehow to flesh out his hunted wanderer status, then a threequel post-Ultron as Planet Hulk leading into Love and Thunder. And yeah yeah I know Hulk's movie rights... but still. And so they followed the game plan that actually happened and by the time we get more solo Cap stuff it's Falcap and no one cares anymore. At least Iron Man got his own true trilogy even if they wasted the Mandarin (and I liked the twist, but still) and his other "big" enemies and/or storylines.
And again, the Big Four have the most meat on their solo bones and they still ended up struggling a bit for material, film rights or not, right? How the hell could they do solo Captain Marvel films with how little material she has outside external factors like Brie Larson's unlikability? Shang-Chi? Heck, even Black Panther? If they played their cards right that shouldn't be an issue of course, but they didn't, and now it's a muddled mess on who's who and big name and what's what for threats and all that. And part of that is because those guys really never were meant to be solo heroes, but ensemble heroes as part of the Avengers, the level that say the JLI or Satellite Era Justice League members were.
We all know the MCU got real lucky with such a long winning streak, but that's all the more so considering they almost but didn't quite manage to turn the Big Four Avengers into solo leads on the level of Spidey and the JL founders. But ultimately they didn't indeed, and once the MCU truly dies down these guys will likely go back to their B-list status in even comics culture even if they'll always be rightly core/A-list in Marvel's universe and meta itself

People are actually watching Loki? I haven't heard even a peep from that show, unlike when season 1 aired
