No but seriously I think people are going to get sick of this sometime soon. When all the original avengers' contracts end after Infinity wars and we're left with the B team its done. DC was done from the start.
>>
>>67900194
I seriously hope Marvel has the decency to let Infinity War be the end of the MCU.

If it can end with Infinity War, then I think I'll look back on the MCU has being a legitimately great series of films.
>>
>>67900375
theyre going to test the waters with inhumans

>>67899683

What I want to know is what happens after JL2 and Infinity wars 2.

Will capeshit be over?
>>
>>67900194
BvS opened huge despite being shit.

The films will start to tail off when the big successful franchises end and the formulae get really exhausted. General audiences will tire of them slowly, not in a 6 month period.

>If it can end with Infinity War, then I think I'll look back on the MCU has being a legitimately great series of films.

it's hardly guaranteed that the IW movies will themselves be good. I think it's more likely that the Avatar films will be good, as Cameron isn't saddled with all the shitty pre-existing lore that Marvel is.

Even if all of Phase 3 is shit, then I would still call this a good series overall.

There are already signs of capeshit fatigue among the general audience, but the genre is still going strong because of diverse approaches.

My prediction is that capeshit will reach its absolute peak potential both in box office and in hype when MCU's Infinity War Part Part 2 will come out and conclude this massive story ark they are going with.

Normies will essentialy consider MCU's plot "over" because that would be the last film starring RDJ, Evans and other stars and it would be hard to top Thanos as far as danger scale is concerned, so there is no real reason to watch capeshit anymore. Genre will die down soon after that with Disney getting away with ~$18 billion profit from this whole enterprise.

Warner and DC will stay cucked.

Screencap this

The image is old. That's supposed to be a sequel to the reboot that crashed and burned last year. The release window is being retooled to Deadpool 2.
>>
>>67900996

I agree. I don't see a post Infinity War Marvel movie doing well, don't see the general masses liking what they put out, instead Marvel will more than likely move to TV or Netflix style miniseries in the manner of Darevil but normies signed on for the original Avengers from the first movie but there's no way in hell I see them liking a post-Infinity War Avengers movie with a bunch of literal WHO'S including Spider-Man to get that easy money sitting well with them.

Not to mention The Big Bang Theory will be over by the time it comes out and the nerd fad will have hopefully die off.

I wonder if Valiant will ever get their Cinematic Universe off the ground? There comics feel drastically different from both Marvel and DC and have lots of originality towards them and they've even been climbing in popularity I heard but who knows. Non Marvel and DC stuff seems to be doing better on television rather than cinema so maybe that's where Valiant's future lies.

Shakespeare Theatric Universe when?

>>67900855
I had absolutely no doubts that GotG would succeed.

After already being familiar with the comics and those characters, I knew from day one that people would love Rocket and Groot.
>>
>>67901052
Considering that current earnings are around $10 billion:

>Civil War has full potential to break billion or more
>Dr. Strange about $800 mln
>GotG may beat another billion or more
>Black Panther, Captain Marvel and Inhumans can rake up to $1.5 billion or more combined
>Each part of Infinity War may bring $1.5 billion

Yeah, I think it's in the realm of possibility.
>>
>>67901324
It depends on how the current phase is received. They have good casting choices lined up, and GotG shows there is interest in the "literal who" characters.

Sure things will probably dip a bit when the phase 1 crew finally drops out, but if they can keep a constant profit up there they'll go on and on.
>>
>>67901324
Exactly. Post-Infinity War will be just niche storylines for hardcore fans like Hulk movies or proper Fantastic Four (assuming it will be bought off) or whatever. It will still be technically connected together as far as cameos and easter eggs are concerned, but there would be no feeling of urgency or need for team-up movies.
>>
>>67900489
No man. They're setting up all the ant-man, black panther, doctor strange stuff for afterwards. Wonder how they'll do it though. If they'll give a reason for the disappearance of main characters or if they'll get recast.
>>
>>67902863
I think they will start to follow the current comics stories.
>>
>>67903025
PLEASE DON'T FUCKING DO THIS. Current comics is a mess, all we get are SJW variations of heroes instead of their original identities. They are not bad imo, but they are not the same thing. That's what the movies are for. That's why I enjoy them so much.

Gotta feel bad for the Vision. Look at him. Look at him watching these random shitbags who usurped roles of his friends. What is he thinking? Maybe he remembers those good old times when "white male cispig" Avengers had fun and banter and friendship and love. When they beat Ultron by working together. And now? Now he sees these tumblrinas in tights and silently screams internally.

Marvel are fine. They can make successful movies out of Z-list characters like Ant-Man and literally who comics like GotG. I don't know if their Avengers films will do as well, considering they'll have to do without RDJ, Evans etc but their individual movies won't be in any real danger after Infinity Wars ends.

It's DC who's in trouble, they're rushing out their movies ASAP so they can get the JL revenue but it's resulted in the DCEU having a shitty public image. Their movies are all going to be dark and grim, and that just won't work outside of Batman. In BvS Superman's facial expressions are always somewhere in between 'Angry' and 'Concerned', nobody wants to see this grim shit in a super hero movie, they're completely disregarding children, their largest audience.

Also, we've already been introduced to 6 of the main 7 by BvS, the only one who's going to be missing from JL is Green Lantern, and nobody's going to see a JL sequel if all they're adding is GL.

>>67903803

They really should've made Batman vs Superman a two parter leading up to Doomsday, ending it with Doomsday waking up would've been the way to go then branch out into the individual movies like Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Flash, etc and resolving the Batman vs Superman Doomsday cliffhanger in the Justice League movie.

This year is probably my last year of seeing capeshit in theatres;

We have a good roster this year but everything else in 2017 beyond seems lackluster.
Suicide Squad, X-men: Apoc, B v. S and Civil War is more than enough for a lifetime. I'm pretty sure they'll be good too.

I thoroughly enjoyed B v. S

>>67904464

I really think Valiant/Sony should consider moving Harbinger to TV rather than film. It could work great, especially how it's basically a road trip comic anyway, first couple episodes would be Peter being indoctrinated into Harada's society, learns it is corrupt, decides to fuck off with the list of names and takes it from there to recruit members for his own army to fight Harada. Simple. It wouldn't work in a movie unless they rushed through a lot of the material.

You can cross most of the WB pictures off that list, and the later Sony films as well. They're likely to be cancelled at this point, leaving the conclusion of the MCU and maybe X-Men around 2020.

I'm not a /co/ type, but would Marvel Studios try to roll X-men and Spider-Man back into the MCU, or is it worth more to keep whoring the rights out to Fox/Sony?

Spider-Man is in Civil War isn't he, but Sony still have his rights?

And isn't one of the guys from Age of Ultron an X-men (X-man?) in the comics?
>>
My own hype died pretty fast after AoU.

Gambit, Dr. Strange and The Sandman are the only movies I even kinda care about.
>>
>>67900194
DC was done indeed. I think the reason for this is that they failed to establish the Justice League movies fast enough.
With Marvel, i would say everybody knew Hulk, Spiderman, maybe Ironman, maybe Captain America.
Spiderman was property of Sony though so he's out of the question.
They used Captain America, Hulk and Ironman to establish the Avengers and so everyone got a chance for their own movie, and to become famous characters.

But DC only really has Superman and Batman. They had those brilliant Dark Knight movies, but i feel that's all their good for when it comes to movies: just reboot Batman, or reboot Superman.
What DC did good though are their TV shows. The Flash and Arrow were a success, and Supergirl is popular among girls (the target group).
DC is too late to make the Justice league because by the time its out, the capeshit fad will be over.

TFA, Gaga, Breaking Bad, white/gold dress, Jurassic World, white/gold dress

There were some great movies that came out of the capeshit era...Spidey, original Xmen, iron man, avengers, dark knight bit now, it's all so formulaic. An easy money grab. Thoughtless. No magic.
