The Marvels Had Worst 1st and 2nd Weekends In MCU History At US Box Office

People assumed Captain Marvel movie did well and it needed a sequel. Truth was only reason anyone even went to see that movie was it was between Avengers films and people assumed it would have something to do with it.

now I must saw Ms Marvel did an amazing job. I cannot wait to see more of her.

And no one is surprised

My 12 year old daughter loved it along with my 8 & 9 year old sons. I found the Khan family very enjoyable.

My review:

Kids & Family movie - 6.5/10 it was fun, bad villain but somewhat believable story. Followed the plot to a T no real character development except maybe a bit from Mrs. Khan. Cats are cute.

Adult me - Action Adventure Film like avengers was - 1/10 it was silly no real stakes as at any time Captain Marvel could have just gone ahead and wiped out the Kree before they could do anything. Acting was weak except for two of the main stars Iman Vellani and Teyonah Parris along with the rest of the Khan family. In fairness to the actress that played the villain terrible writing for that part.

This movie is already dead, stop talking about this rubbish!!!!

People have grown tired of Marvel's assembly line approach to movies and tv shows. Characters are interchangable and plots are an afterthought. Once the Avengers storyline was finished with Endgame they wanted something else but instead they got a minor league ballteam version of the Avengers.

Brie Larson is unlikeable and out of touch... There it is.

Saw an ad last night for the movie and it was called "The #1 Movie in the World!" LOL

"The Marvels was released just after the SAG-AFTRA strike ended, so the film's stars were not available to promote the film in the run up to release like they normally would"

It would have done even worse if they spoke about it.

When you score lower than Eternals, then it’s time to start choosing which stories people have genuine interest in.

The only real stories they have in their wheelhouse that people want to see is MCU X-Men, Thunderbolts, and Blade. Perhaps if they weren’t so concerned with being friendly with every single special interest group in the known universe, we could have gotten those way before now.

I'm in no hurry to see it, though I would like to at some point. Oct-Dec is such a busy time of year, that going to a theater just isn't in the cards anymore like it used to be. I might make an exception for a truly big MCU event, but Marvels isn't that. Not that I dislike the idea of it, but it isn't a "day 1" kind of MCU project like some of their other heroes are.

This is one I'll wait to watch on Disney + in January or February or whenever it starts streaming.

The People: "We are sick of this MCU crap"

The Executives: "We know you love the MCU, folks! With the recent failures, we have decided to make MORE MCU titles!"

The People: *groan*

"Also, comparing against the original Captain Marvel isn't perfect, complete, or fair, given there was no pandemic back then."

What is this, there is no pandemic now.

Gee, I never would have guessed. This crap is a dime a dozen every year.

I didn't know anyone even a little excited for this one. Not even the people who day-1'ed every other MCU film (up to Endgame) with me.

Waiting for the PC brigade to accuse everyone who avoided it of being mysogynists... whereas reality shows it's just a poor film.
