Punching Bag Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 There is so many characters you need a scorecard. I did not even recognize Black Widow as a blonde. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to know how they determine salaries for this one. Written into the contracts well ahead of time probably? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any truth to the rumor they're making it a trilogy, with the third installment being nothing but credits for the first two? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Gal Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 I hope it is good. Not even asking for great with all those characters (what? 5 lines each?) I'm about superhero movied-out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was originally supposed to be two movies. There is going to be a fourth Avengers movie, but I don't know if it's a continuation of Infinity War or something completely different.

From what I read yesterday, the 4th will be the final movie in the contract of all the original avengers and I thought I heard before it was the second half of infinity war being split in 2. Its probably pretty tough to not do it that way if the maon guys come back after something that is supposed to be so big as Infinity war. Either way, since all the movies tie into each other, it is a continuation no matter what, kinda like how many consider Civil War to be Avengers 2 1/2 instead of Captain America 3. Its not like it matters, right now Marvel could release a movie of any of the Avengers out doing normal everyday stuff for a few hours and it would make Billions while DC will have another super hyped movie come out and be considered a flop by blockbuster movie standards...... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would certainly pay to see "Avengers 4: Black Widow Vacuums the Living Room and Makes a Salad." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Combine that with the fact that DC basically tried to make an Avengers movie without any previous background movies for any of the characters, then throw in a director who confused "character introduction" with "20 minutes of Viola Davis narrating while eating a steak," and it was pretty easy to make a failure out of it. Suicide Squad was so ineptly handled it's practically a case study in how not to write and direct a movie. Even Roger Corman movies have better narrative structure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apuszczalowski Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 That's what I mean though. It should have been a huge hit just because of what it is, a comic book movie that are all the rage right now with a bunch of popular characters. Sure there are some lesser known in there but everything just seemed so poorly done when it should have been easy to do. The thing with these kinds of movies is that many don't need academy award caliber acting and detailed plots to succeed. Just lots of action and cool explosions usually get it done with not difficult storylines to follow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevbeau Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 They film a lot of the outdoor (forest, big open fields) scenes for the Marvel universe about a mile from my house. I'm assuming the end scene of the trailer was shot there. We can hear the pyrotechnics at times. I will say with all the CGI it makes it tough to recognize the place. I know there a few other Atlanta locals on the board, but I don't know if folks in other places realize how much is being filmed in Atlanta, both cinema & TV. It's actually become bothersome in the delays and detours it causes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't bought the DVD...but I may, for the director's commentary, just to see if he has any further pointers on how not to make a movie.
