Disney confirms they lost 400 million on indy 5 and the marvels

[Days of Future Piff]

wtf is a self-insert

That’s when a creator puts themselves into the story and makes their character overly perfect for no reason.

It’s a hallmark of bad fanfic writing.

$200M to make Wish

They've ran superhero movies into the ground. People want something new and fresh.

fukk all the intricate nerd talk about the marvel movies and why they suck now, because I've been saying this since like the third or fourth movie

 

[Absolut]

It really feels like Disney is driving their car in reverse and losing a race they should easily be winning. They could've just not made Indiana Jones 5 or not write Indy to be a grumpy old loser so they could trojan horse in some female protag no one cared about. Captain Marvel was a boring stoic character in a C-minus MCU movie and the other two you'd have to have watched two different Disney+ shows to know who they were.

Edit/Also movies having these $200-300 million dollar budgets is insane.

Pandering is expensive

movies that pander to women and gays flop more often than they win

Naw people just want something good. They been trying to force shyt on people and it’s not working. If they come out with a legit non gender swapped X-Men they will make money.

I don’t trust them though because they already fukking up the Fantastic 4 with gender swaps.

Indy was so gotdamn long they probably lost money on those 20 minute car chase scenes and other bullshyt. Really could’ve cut those down a bit.

I love Harrison Ford, but he’s too old to play Indy… they should have switched actors every few movies like James Bond.

Marvel fell off hard after Endgame… they haven’t had any real direction or cohesive plan since. Almost all the best characters are either retired, dead, or partially owned by other companies and they’re taking too long with the characters people really want (F4, Dr Doom, X-men, Blade).

Unrelated, but Disney messed up Star Wars in all kinds of ways.
Bringing Palpatine back defeats the point of Anakin redeeming himself and becoming the chosen one.
Rain Johnson turned Luke into a coward who tried to off his own nephew over a bad dream, which was completely out of character for him.
There was no plan for these movies.
All the OG heroes had their hard fought victories undone between trilogies…
Just so they could be given away to Kathleen Kennedy’s self-insert who didn’t earn it.

Edit: the Luke, Han, and Leia never got to share ONE scene together in the sequel trilogy. Let that sink in.

Naw, Ford IS Indy. Not a character you can have someone else do

Julia Garner is boarding Marvel’s The Fantastic Four, reportedly signing on to play the Silver Surfer.

According to Deadline, the Emmy-winning Ozark actor will portray a Shalla-Bal version of the classic cosmic comic character. In the original Marvel stories, Shalla-Bal is the lover of Norrin Radd.

don't worry...they'll recoup all that money once they remake 'Short Cirtuit'....;Teen Witch'....and 'The Snorkles' movies......

 

[Koapa]

300 million dollar budget was the 1st mistake.

 

[Elim Garak]
