Guardians of the Galaxy and now Deadpool is breaking box office records? How does Marvel keep doing it? Is there some sacrificial rituals you can make to a blood god that I don't know about?
Tried and true character franchises that people have been begging for for years; finally done with massive budgets.
We're going to look back on these years as the golden age of Superhero movies.
Well one of those is Fox but really the trick is to just make things all people can like.
Deadpool is FOX
>>79844700
>$58 million
>massive
>>79844700
This, plus a lighthearted tone that makes the films seem more approachable for someone who isn't closely familiar with the subject matter
Just like floptastic 4 huh?
Origins?
>>79844904
It's bigger than your dick
>>79844727
>the trick is to just make things all people can like
Good fucking luck with doing the impossible.
Don't be DC.
It's really simple when you think about it.
>>79844929
So why does your mom keep coming back?
>>79844929
ant yet still 1/4 of the cost of the next big capeshit to hit the silver screen
>>79844972
You ever hear of the term "pity fuck"?
>>79844632
>Deadpool
>Marvel
How salty is Marvel right now? I mean they want to make more money with Gwenpool sure, but they definitely got schooled in how to make a movie.
>>79844962
>Dark knight
What is ff4 2k15?
>>79844924
>Just like floptastic 4 huh?
Fantas4stic was done within months of the right reverting to Disney, by a one-hit director who folded under pressure.
By comparison, Deadpool's script has been locked in for five or more years.
>Origins?
That one was just a huge piece of shit.
>>79844962
Pretty much this.
>>79844632
Honestly I think they're doing this on a dare.
>>79844962
>TDK is the only cape movie that's respected as a generally great movie
No need to be so insecure.
>>79845093
It's a shit movie though.
MARVEL decided to do more than stick with it's highest earner. I think that's about it. DC is still trying to do its trinity right . . . MARVEL's way past trying to do Cap right, or do Iron Man right.
>>79845000
When I fuck your moms arm pits
>>79844727
You didn't even watch the movie because I can guarantee this movie didn't fancy a few people in the niche department.
>>79844727
Realistically it's easier to just make a good movie. Super heroes on their own are already common ground for a lot of people even before the comic movie boom, so an audience is guaranteed; you just need to make the movie not suck and the people will do the rest.
>>79844976
Who ever wrote the script was smart as shit.
They basically used every trick to keep the budget down by keeping sets to a minimum.
They were able to set numerous scenes at different times in the story in the bar, the lab, the highway.
The musical cues and small cast kept the film slim.
>>79845118
Yay, it's cool to be a hipster contrarian faggot
>>79845140
Dude, that's fucked up.
>>79844936
Okay a majority of people
>>79845148
I literally just came back from it today. It's very general audience friendly with just enough comic references
>>79845129
Neither Cap or Tony are the Marvel Trinity anyways so it's funny that they're able to have so much success anyways.
>>79845019
It's fucking batman it's like the safety net for DC you could fuck that all kinds of up and still make a quick buck.
>>79845077
>I dare you to make Guardians of the Galaxy a smash hit
>I dare you to release a Deadpool movie...with an R-rating...in February!When will they break the ice and dare each other to become best friends?
>>79845118
This is how /co/ reviews and critiques movies. Amazing insight.
>>79845129
>Marvel
>Doing cap and ironman right
Nope
>>79845011
>they definitely got schooled in how to make a movie.
Marvel has had equal and greater commercial and critical success. Winter Solder and GotG being recent mega-hits. Even AoU made money.
However, Marvel has never never done quite so much with so little, or dared risk an R-rated release.
>>79845218
>Neither Cap or Tony are the Marvel Trinity anyways
They are now. They didn't used to be though. I'm pretty sure it was like Spider-Man, Wolverine and Hulk in the 90s and early 00s
>>79845219
>It's fucking batman it's like the safety net for DC you could fuck that all kinds of up and still make a quick buck.
Sad/funny thing is, this is true.
>>79845212
Yes no shit I loved it too but I sure as fuck wouldn't bring my kid to that. But I'm glad it did good hopefully we see more shit that isn't pg-13.
>>79845245
They're not doing them wrong or every film would have ended up like Floptastic or Green Lantern which is an example of something actually not being done right
>>79845282
>Yes no shit I loved it too but I sure as fuck wouldn't bring my kid to that
Well duh, it's Rated R. I meant general audience as in non-comic readers
>>79845245
>Nope
Winter Soldier is excellent and Civil War will likely follow in that trend.
And regardless of anything else, you can't take away Iron Man 1 from the world.
>>79845228
Such a dare would destroy us all and not just us heaven and hell with it.
>>79845236
>sir, s-sir? p-please explain to me why I have shit taste
Do your own homework, kid.
>>79845311
Winter Soldier was a shit adaptation of anything from Brubaker's run.
So, now comes the big question: does Marvel start fast-tracking a Punisher or Blade movie for Phase Four/late Phase Three?
>>79845228
I hope it's soon, and then they force the editors to be nice and get another DC/Marvel crossover book.
I miss when the Big 2 were at least friendly to eachother.
>>79844632
I think part of the reason the last couple of years have been so successful (barring Fant4stic which everyone knew would be shit for so many reasons) is that the movies are slowly diversifying.
Winter Soldier, Guardians of the Galaxy, Ant-Man, Deadpool, they're all very different movies (although you could argue that Ant-Man and Deadpool have surprisingly strong similarities, but that's irrelevant). The one Marvel movie that wasn't universally well-received was Age of Ultron - the one that stuck to the formula the closest.
We're at the point where they need to break new ground to stay afloat, because after dozens of cape flicks, a hero punching shit isn't enough to keep audiences interested. These movies are successful because they're putting new spins on the superhero framework - spy thriller, anti-hero space opera, small-scale heist movie, R-rated violent comedy/surprisingly good romance, etc.
Doctor Strange will hopefully do something new. The rest of the movies this year seem more cookie-cutter and less envelope-pushing.
>>79845311
>Civil war
>I'd gladly endanger the lives of many for my former friend who tried to destroy the world
Marvel is beyond shit
>>79844632
>How does Marvel keep doing it?
Nice try, DC.
Go back to painting every frame in orange tones, Snyder.
>>79845361
None of the MCU movies ever do 1:1 adaptations. They take pieces and make it into something else. It's what they do in all of their movies.
This better be some bait I'm biting, I don't want to think that someone is this stupid to have an opinion this dumb.
>>79845255
It still is Spider-Man and Wolverine.
>>79845228
>I dare you to release a Deadpool movie...with an R-rating...in February!
this is the most baffling part for me.
i didn't really think gotg would flop but kept feeling sorry for the people behind deadpool because i was sure dropping an r-rated cape movie in feb of all months was a shit idea.
i'm wondering if fantastic four would have been a success if it was a horror film.
I just got done with a shift at the movie theater I work at, and you wouldn't believe how many 13 and under kids were brought to see Deadpool by their parents.
>>79845420
I didn't ask for a 1:1 adaptation, but it's still a poor adaptation nonetheless. Bucky was awful.
>>79845361
>Winter Soldier was a shit adaptation of anything from Brubaker's run.
And it was a better movie for it. Slavish devotion to the source material gets you inferior clones like Watchmen.
>>79845361
>Watching these movies as adaptations
I bet you're like one of those Civil War fans who is mad that it's not anything like the comic story
>>79845367
The only MCU characters that have successfully made the jump from the big screen to the little screen are Coulson, Fury and Maria Hill. And in the case of all three, Marvel would have you believe that the Agents of Shield series exists in it's own little canon bubble.
>>79845443
>i'm wondering if fantastic four would have been a success if it was a horror film.
I don't know why they tried going so derivative with the F4. That whole thing was a recipe for disaster. Even if Trank made a good movie, I feel like it would have still been a bad Fantastic Four movie.
>>79845337
>i'm just going to make a blanket statement when the consensus is the complete opposite.
>>79845408
>Marvel is beyond shit
Dude, I don't want to alarm you, but the entire concept of costumed vigilantism is a joke.
>>79845508
>Civil War fans
They exist?
>>79845519
Because Trank wanted to make Chronicle 2.
F4 isn't fucking Chronicle
Fox didn't have the right idea either
>>79845487
>Bucky was awful.
Who the hell is Bucky?
>>79845385
>Winter Soldier, Guardians of the Galaxy, Ant-Man, Deadpool
Winter Soldier and Deadpool are the only valid examples you listed. Guardians and Ant-Man have different themes and casts of characters, but the MCU formula is unchanged regardless.
>>79845566
Most casuals and newbies to comics have bought into the idea that CW is a definitive story. They will either read more comics and learn they're wrong or won't read more comics and keep that belief.
>>79845582
This. It's clear Trank was a one trick pony, like Blomkamp.
It's also clear he didn't give a shit about the FF at any point, and wanted a spiritual sequel to Chronicle, but they made him throw in FF elements into the script to keep the rights.
The movie failed because it wasn't a movie anyone wanted to make, it was done to maintain the rights.
>Marvelfags seriously trying to associate Fox success with themselves as if they werent shitting on everything Fox just a month ago
This insecurity is both hilarious and sad tbqh. Company wars to the point of transitive property corporate dicksucking. "S-See it has the Marvel logo in front of it!!"
>>79844632
Maybe it's because people like comedy in their superhero movies.
>>79845419
You prefer gray tones?
Black and white?
>>79845500
Winter Soldier is an equally inferior clone to the source. The only reason it gets any praise around here is because the rest of the MCU is so incredibly mediocre that a diet Bourne movie makes you wet.
>>79845706
Incorrect. Winter Soldier has an original story that only uses the broad themes of Brubake'rs time on the comic.
It had a completely different scale and cast of characters.
>>79845617
Eh, Ant-Man is the most formulaic of the four, but I still think the whole heist aspect is new.
I can't see how Guardians follows the formula - it's a team movie, it's not an origin story for any of the characters except for Quill in the broadest of strokes, the heroes lose every engagement they fight (contrast with AoU, where the Avengers win every single battle) and only win by basically pure luck, and instead of a climactic personal battle, it ends with the much-memed dance-off.
While the tone was similar, the story was very different from the MCU formula.
>>79845173
Fox even cut 7m from the budget just before approving it. The writers had 48 hours to cut things and get the budget down. What was lost/changed:
-3 villains combined into one (Angel Dust)
-Motorcycle chase scene removed
-Scaling back the final battle (which is whyDeadpool leaves his guns behind again)
>>79845443
>horror cape film
That could definitely work since Batman Returns was close to achieving it with the parents being worried about kids having nightmares.
But I don't think anyone is ever going to do a straight horror cape film.
>>79845670
>Marvelfags seriously trying to associate Fox success with themselves
Uh no, everybody knows its different companies. We're talking about them in terms of movies, not rights
>>79844632
Marvel didn't make Deadpool. Both just had really good marketing, and in Deadpool's case, a large fanbase beyond comic readers.
>>79845760
Yes, and it's an inferior story to anything Brubaker wrote.
>>79845796
>-3 villains combined into one (Angel Dust)
That sounds like a good thing. She wasn't particularly developed as it is; having three villains would make them zero-dimensional.
Unlike DC, they are not embarrassed by the fact that their movies are based on comics.
>>79845706
>>Winter Soldier is an equally inferior clone to the source
It's nothing like the source story it's loosely based of
Seriously not a single one of these cape movies, neither Marvel, Fox, DC or Sony or any of these companies are direct adaptations, why are you looking at them as such?
>>79845779
GOTG is beat for beat the first Avengers film except with shittier jokes
Ant-Man is every Iron Man film
GotG is the GOAT release from Marvel.
Nothing else compares
>>79845862
>Yes, and it's an inferior story to anything Brubaker wrote.
And anything Brubaker wrote would never fit a single movie story.
>>79845864
this.
DC keeps trying to legitimize the whole thing whereas Marvel understands what fun is
>>79845815
>Danny Devito's name over Catwoman
>Michelle Pfeiffer over Penguin
I know it's autistic but WHY
>>79844632
Yes, marvel is doing something
>>79845871
I mean, it's not, but sure, keep generalizing. There are similarities but "beat-for-beat" is ludicrous.
By that logic every action movie from the same era is beat for beat every other action movie. Genre conventions are a necessary evil.
>>79845779
Then we have different definitions for MCU's formula. I don't consider winning or losing fights to be relevant. MCU's formula involves safe comedy, and a high frequency of comedy. Combine that with a bright and saturated color pallette, an extremely basic plot, as well as cardboard cutout villains, and you have yourself a winning MCU formula.
Galaxy's "dance off bro" scene is the epitome of what MCU has become.
>>79845864
>>79845912
Still shitposting with this in 2016? You cannot be serious.
>>79845796
>>79845863
Angel Dust ended up better for it. She got to be the Jaws to Ajax's Blofeld.
>>79845870
Do you know what an adaptation is? It doesn't mean 1:1. Winter Soldier the movie is indeed an adaptation of parts of Brubaker's run.
>>79845833
It says right there in op

>>79845864
This meme needs to stop. The MCU has turned every character in Spider-Man lite and are nothing like the comics they adapt from. BvS looks like the most comic booky comic book movie we've ever gotten.
>>79845864
>>79845912
Look at how much it stuck to the source material
Based marlel
>>79846017
That's really my biggest complaint about this whole situation.
The shit flinging is just so unoriginal!
>>79844904
It made back its budget in a day and a half and for an R rated movie, not even a superhero movie in February is amazing.
It made 47 mil in a single day. That is largest amount times 4.
>>79845946
All right, I see your point. I still think it's different in several aspects (a higher focus on comedy, for one), but the framework as you've defined it is adhered to.
I don't consider that to necessarily be a bad thing, though. But it's not something that can go on forever, as the death of 80s OTT action movies (and Seagal's career) have shown us.
>>79845921
>I know it's autistic but WHY
The way actors are credited on posters is actually a huge negotiation headache.
Nicholson got billing over Keaton for Batman somewhat infamously.
>>79846017
>we'll take credit for Deadpool, but not Fant4stic
>>79846033
Nobody said that Marvel sticks to the sources, retard.

>>79845929

You're right, you can see Ant-man at 80% right there.
>>79846017
>Deadpool is marvel
>Ff isn't
>>79846078
But Marvel isn't taking credit. Everybody knows Fox made this except for retards like yourselves. The 2nd and 3rd posts even point out that it is Fox. Are you really out of shitposting material that you need to act retarded?
>>79845946
>Galaxy's "dance off bro" scene is the epitome of what MCU has become.
Deadpool has almost the same thing withAjax getting headshot while Colossus gave Deadpool a moralizing speech
>>79845779
Quippy, lighthearted, kid-friendly jokefest with a forgettable, underdeveloped villain is the stereotypical MCU formula. And everything else is little more than a skin or palette change. For whatever reason I went into GOTG expecting more and ended up with "avengers IN SPACE." I genuinely think that people who rave about how varied the MCU movies are need to watch some films that aren't from the MCU; something like Alien, Die Hard, Leon the Professional, Bourne Identity, or the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly if they're interested in action movies. I don't feel like most have.
>>79846033
>>79846026
I never said anything about sticking to the source material. I said that they are not embarrassed to be based on comic books.
>>79845921

>>79846026

Sin City only came short of speech bubbles.
Putting panels from the Dark Knight Returns into the film isn't profound. It's jut Snyder falling back on the same bad habits.

I mean come on, it's a rated R movie what did you expect? It's like those people who watch or play something they hate and then complain about it.
>>79846245
>Why is marvel so afraid of it's source material?
Because they know limiting themselves to the strict canon of the comics, particularly for esoteric characters no one really likes can make make a film worse.
Like say how, reinventing Negasonic Teenage Warhead into a completely different character was beneficial to Deadpool.
>>79844632
People like superhero movies.
>>79846270
>It's jut Snyder falling back on the same bad habits.
Since when is being faithful to the source material a bad habit? Is this what we've come to, /co/?
>>79844632
No, just that Marvel understood that different people had different taste and they could reach more audience by using lesser known character, when DC thougt that making a 13254th movie with Batman or Superman would be enough.
>>79844632
>breaking box office records
I swear they say that about every fucking movie that comes out now. What exactly are these records?
>>79846346
>actors seriously get that pissed over not having their name show up first on a poster?
Actors are massive tools who are fame-obsessed.
American ones in particular.
>>79846385

What about spider man 2?
>>79846270
>being faithful and respecting the source material is bad because DC is doing it

These arguments are getting dumber and dumber. It's not even fun.

Not every R rated movie is the same.
>>79846401
>Since when is being faithful to the source material a bad habit? Is this what we've come to, /co/?
Because this shit ain't rocket science, dude.
Snyder is an inferior director to the current talent pool. He likes to copy+paste comic panels to the big screen, while not focusing on underlying script or tone problems.
>>79846401
No, Snyder's just a piece of shit.
>>79846470
Not as much as any Nolan trilogy movie
>>79846385
>reinventing Negasonic Teenage Warhead
They only did it because they wanted cool sounding names to use in the movie. There was no artistic reasoning for doing it.
>>79846416
What would be enough for me is to wait for a movie to actually release or get reviews before judging it for the 13254th time in a shitpost.
Apparently you have lower standards. OP didnt even mention DC but you had to throw in your little obsessive jab
>>79846527
You're a piece of shit
>>79846330
>DC movies aren't like the source material
I'm curious about the logic behind this, though I sort of expect the answer to be, "they made superman gritty" or "the movies take themselves seriously," both of which are the sort of assessments expected from people who don't actually read comics, who regularly describe camp and comedy as "comic booky" (whatever that means).
>>79846416
Yeah, I guess that's why Marvel delayed a bunch of movies so they could shoehorn in a second Spider-Man reboot into their slate. They totally care about their lesser known character.
>>79846450
>So explain fantastic four
Fox hired Tim Story, a mercenary director known for studio-driven comedies. Back in 2000-whatever comic book movies were still fresh and daring so the film was a financial success done in good faith.
The sequel was PG-rated and clearly pulled for a tone like Spider-Man 2 by having an underlying morale "You always have a choice" vs "If you're smart you have an obligation to contribute"
Fantast4stic was done in haste, with no strong idea, solely to keep the rights from reverting from Fox back to Disney. It was a clusterfuck from the start.
>>79846593
Adults are insecure about watching a movie with superheroes waxing philosophical or having internal struggles. Marvel has convinced people that these movies should be treated as jokes and nothing else when even their own source material is at times very dramatic.
>>79846377
you haven't experienced this before?

>>79846473
>>being faithful and respecting the source material is bad because DC is doing it
>>Marvel movies not resembling anything from their source material is praised because it's Marvel
Zack Snyder, a single specific director responsible for 2/3ths of the DCCU, has bad habits when it comes to making a movie. He favors art over story and consitentl fumble the tone and message of his films, by arrogantly favoring visuals over covering storytelling bases.
Marvel referencing Ant-Man riding one of Hawkeye's arrows in Civil War is a fun homage to a silly novel concept, Zack Snyder aping Dark Kngith Returns when he's also supposed to be setting up Justice League is another problem entirely.
So with Fan4stic failing financially & critically, will Fox sell the rights, doing nothing with the property so it reverts back to Marvel/Disney, or try a fourth attempt?

>>79846547
>They only did it because they wanted cool sounding names to use in the movie. There was no artistic reasoning for doing it.
It's amazing that you can read words but not learn their lesson.
The point is that Fox changed a minor character and it made the movie better.
Marvel changing the Mandarin is perhaps polarizing but not an inherent storytelling failure. It is not embarrassment with the source material that they omitted a Yellow Peril Fu Manchu knockoff into a bumbling scapegoat for the real villain, Killian.
>>79846596
>Yeah, I guess that's why Marvel delayed a bunch of movies so they could shoehorn in a second Spider-Man reboot into their slate. They totally care about their lesser known character.
That's Sony.
Marvel changed their schedule for Ant-Man & The Wasp, because it was an unexpected success that warranted a sequel being fast-tracked.
>>79846782
>Zack Snyder aping Dark Kngith Returns
He's not though. The movie has absolutely nothing in common with TDKR aside from a few visual homages.
>>79846707
>It's still marvel right?
None of the Fantastic Four films have been done by Disney/Marvel.
All of them are Fox Studios produced films. Especially the most recent one directed by Josh Trank released in 2015.
>>79846960
>That's Sony.
No, it's under Marvel Studios lineup now. It's just a joint effort with Sony, but Marvel did indeed delay Black Panther, Captain Marvel and Inhumans so they could make another Spider-Man movie.

>>79847030
It's still Sony's egg to break. It'll be their director and script.
And can you blame Disney for knowing Spider-man is a billion dollar property all on his own and wanting a piece?

No. So don't spout bullshit like DC only cares about making Batman and Superman movies when Marvel has been salivating to make their own Spider-Man movie and pushed a bunch of their movies out of the way to make room for him.
>>79844727
Did they get little bits of help from Marvel themselves for this? Honest question, I'm seeing some earlier videos that suggest they had some input early on. Though I suppose they still made their own script in the end.

>woah is me
I hole-hardedly agree, but allow me to play doubles advocate here for a moment. For all intensive purposes I think you are wrong. In an age where false morals are a diamond dozen, true virtues are a blessing in the skies. We often put our false morality on a petal stool like a bunch of pre-Madonnas, but you all seem to be taking something very valuable for granite. So I ask of you to mustard up all the strength you can because it is a doggy dog world out there. Although there is some merit to what you are saying it seems like you have a huge ship on your shoulder. In your argument you seem to throw everything in but the kids Nsync, and even though you are having a feel day with this I am here to bring you back into reality. I have a sick sense when it comes to these types of things. It is almost spooky, because I cannot turn a blonde eye to these glaring flaws in your rhetoric. I have zero taller ants when it comes to people spouting out hate in the name of moral righteousness. You just need to remember what comes around is all around, and when supply and command fails you will be the first to go. Make my words, when you get down to brass stacks it doesn't take rocket appliances to get two birds stoned at once. It's clear who makes the pants in this relationship, and sometimes you just have to swallow your prize and accept the facts. You might have to come to this conclusion through denial and error but I swear on my mother's mating name that when you put the petal to the medal you will pass with flying carpets like it’s a peach of cake.

>not before you have the guy behind Hot Fuzz write half of a movie, and have the guy behind Nude Tayne write the other half of the movie!
And Guillermo del Toro is just trying to get invited to their cocaine and crazy dares party so he can make Justice League Dark happen.

Apparently I've been ladderbro all along? Or he must be using images that I commonly use. Because I don't actually hold any grudges against DC, Fox, or Disney.
I read less of DC and I'm more optimistic about Suicide Squad than BvS, but I hope both films are actually good.
Marvel by volume simply has a greater range of films to discuss, and Fox is highly inconsistent in their output of x-films.
I feel like most of my talking points can be seen as reasonable.
They got a guy experienced with cartoons to direct it.
