@armbrechtrandy @izanagi2345 @ViewerAnon I think it was. I read that they bumped it up a year. After learning about this $125M, I’m wondering if that along with the Paramount merger were the motivation.

@G_O_A_T_Lantern People in these comments are super toxic. Not a single person even asked why? No curiosity, just a room full of projected judgement.

I’ll take the red pill. Why isn’t it a Green Lantern, or for those in these comments that like to equivocate, a Lanterns show, to you?

@socks9209 @Daykerpriest I think this is one of the likely scenario as

[Crash Adam @theCrashAdam]

In the film he talks about a device that could stop mRNA transcription with Bruce Banner. A hypothetical universal inhibitor. Due to this he didn’t have to know if he was a mutant.

The way the inhibitor most likely works is that it It stops the mRNA transcription before it’s allowed access to the DNA to get the genetic information. That info is what is used to drive other cellular functions, without it the x-gene in this case never gets ceased, which means any of her cells that rely on it to develop the correct proteins or ATP to function don’t receive that signaling, therefore they won’t work anymore. Keep it blocked too long and it leads to cell death and metabolic dysfunction among other things.

@armbrechtrandy @izanagi2345 @ViewerAnon I wonder if that is why they greenlit Man of Tomorrow?

[Crash Adam @theCrashAdam]

@armbrechtrandy @izanagi2345 @ViewerAnon Gotcha. Studios call that ancillary revenue. They don’t consider it as a determining factor of defining a movie as a success. The box office is the driving factor behind that.

[Crash Adam @theCrashAdam]

I agree with everything you stated. I actually saw this as a sort of justice. It also preserved Ruthye who can move forward and grieve without the guilt that stems from taking a life out of anger and revenge regardless of how warranted the act is. That tends to traumatize a person. Supergirl executing him was an outworks jsutice. She wasn’t emotionally compromised. She was acting with calculation. As you said, there wasn’t an established system of justice in place as demonstrated throughout the whole movie. It was almost Wild West situation.

In the script for Thor it was written as a permanent transfiguration rather than a spell. They tried to convey this with action rather than word in the movie, but I don’t think it translated well. Anyway, the permanent transfiguration is the reason he doesn’t turn blue in the TVA.

@theBear_001 I enjoyed the live as well. I liked her as Supergirl. They did good. Lobo wasn’t needed in the movie, but other than that it was great casting.

@MyTimeToShineH Disclaimer: not a comic purist, just adding details here for people to consider for the discussion on what they think Josh Brolin’s role will be.

[Crash Adam @theCrashAdam]

The question is will it be as Thanos (should be since he played a role in the Incursion Saga and if I recall correctly he had kind of a cameo in the Secret Wars series in the final battle) or as Cable? Who had zero role in any of the comics, but a lot of the characters they’re bringing into these movies also weren’t in those comics.

[Crash Adam @theCrashAdam]

@ace_slayton @ViewerAnon 🤣 depending on the movie, but essentially that’s a solid summation.

[Crash Adam @theCrashAdam]

Nope, not lying. I’ll pulled all the numbers from authoritative sources such as Variety, IMDB, and other news publications. For the marketing numbers they can as an estimated range, I used the high end, which is what you do with estimating. Also, most people forget that the box office is split 50-50 with the theaters, the only exception being Disney and its subsidiaries, which has a 60-40 split with Disney getting the majority take.

[Crash Adam @theCrashAdam]

@Beyondreporter1 I would lot be surprised either.

[Crash Adam @theCrashAdam]

I wouldn’t make a big deal of it. It’s for a cameo of the Cavilrine from Deadpool and Wolverine, to appear in Secret Wars.

[NO MORE MUTANTS 🧬 @Nomoremutants22]

The information is that there are rumors that Henry Cavill is in talks with Marvel Studios.

[Crash Adam @theCrashAdam]

If we look at the numbers it wasn’t a disappointment, because it made money.

BvS Revenue Breakdown:
- $874.3M world wide Box Office
- $437.14M Studio Box Office take
- $250M Production cost
- $165M estimated marketing cost
- $22.15M positive return

It’s not Marvel money, but that’s pretty good.

Compare BvS to Superman (2025)

Superman (2025) Revenue Breakdown:
- $618M world wide Box Office
- $309M Studio Box Office take
- $225M Production cost
- $200M estimated marketing cost
- $116M loss

@Nomoremutants22 I guess we’re just bringing over the whole cast of stranger things. She’s young enough, we could be looking at Mystique.

[Crash Adam @theCrashAdam]

@DiscussingScoop @bluemintues @Nomoremutants22 Well played. You’re the super troll. I’m proud of you. Keep it going!😆

[Crash Adam @theCrashAdam]

@DCUAlert I was looking forward to it, but after two episodes of minimal progression and being told white people are the problem. It’s rather tired. I can see the poor Lindelof script writing jumping off the page. I wonder if this all ends as John’s dream, too. Hall Jordan lives.

[The Hollywood Handle @HollywoodHandle]

The new trailer for the ‘HARRY POTTER’ series releases this Tuesday.
