With how many delays and reshoots there have been, there’s no way the budget was only 180 million.DiscussingFilm

‘CAPTAIN AMERICA: BRAVE NEW WORLD’ reportedly has a $180M budget.The film is currently tracking to open with $95M domestically.
Deadpool proved that if the concept excites fans they will go see it. However, I think the days are gone when they still flock to mediocre films. Not just because of the brand being tarnished but money is tighter as well and now there is so much streaming.With how many delays and reshoots there have been, there’s no way the budget was only 180 million.
And I’ll be shocked if it reaches 95 for the 4 day. The MCU brand has been tarnished so much and I’m not sure people are locked into Mackie as Cap enough to make that kind of scratch out of the gates on opening weekend.
I'm all in on Anthony Mackie...it's the organic transition of the character iirc.With how many delays and reshoots there have been, there’s no way the budget was only 180 million.

Me too.Seeing this tonight.
Crazy. The only showings available were the 4 p.m. and 8:30 p.m.Me too.
Very similar to our response. My friend, with a frown, said it was okay but nothing much. My damning verdict is "meh." Didn't suck but wasn't really good. Empty calories. It leaves me with no desire to see future "Avengers" movies or Captain America movies. Mackey is a good supporting actor but not a lead.Saw it this morning at the 10 am showing with family.
Lots of action. G-kids liked it. Ok movie. Meh.
I think Thunderbolts is the only thing I'm excited for. I wouldn't have seen this one, but kind of felt obliged to give it a shot.Man… has any franchise ever coasted on the goodwill Marvel’s bought itself with everything leading up to Endgame? By most accounts, very few people dig Mackie as Cap, the movie is apparently super mid and the brand alone still drags this to a 100 million dollar opening.
It’ll fall like a rock next week, but impressive considering everything.
My question is this though… what if the next two years of movies don’t work? Will Thunderbolts actually be a hit? Dubious. F4 I can see being a decent hit if it’s just decent. But what if the whole RDJ as Doom thing doesn’t work and people don’t go gaga over this new batch of Avengers?
I’m intrigued by Thunderbolts, but only because I love Florence Pugh and think her Elena character is one of the only good new ones in the universe (along with Shang-Chi).I think Thunderbolts is the only thing I'm excited for.
