You know, I wasn't going to do this, but I have to, my ego demands it. I'm just gonna post this and say I told you so. Nobody else was on my side, but I told you all so, so much SO. Maybe I'll finally get some respect after Ant-Man turns out awesome like I predict too.

Just not sure how well it'd do overall.

Just got back from seeing it since some friends invited me along. It was... okay, I guess. Better than Cap 2, at least, but that's not saying much.
I nearly walked out when I saw that Yondu was basically just Merle with blue face paint.

That Disney/Marvel still has Avengers 2 next year and Cap 2 being the highest grossing movie in the US this year (#4 in the world) would make things break even. Welp, it's not going to bomb. So Marvel is pretty much making absolute BANK at the moment.

Because of this, I expect nobody to laugh at me when I say I want my Darkhawk movie.

Saw it today, marvellous soundtrack! Must say I was tempted to sing the "Fairway Frank" song whenever Andy hit the racoon.

That said, three years ago it would've been VERY hard to predict it not tanking.

The one thing that bugged me about the movie was not the movie, but the fact that everyone in the theatre was laughing a lot. Like, A LOT.
And because I did not laugh nearly as much as they did, I now wonder if I was missing something or if the movie didn't connect with me as much it did them.
......I really enjoyed and liked the movie. But everyone else going SO crazy about it........concerns me?

Now as far as sheer entertainment goes, GotG is up there. But Cap 2 has the better story and better value. GotG is just a breather between Cap and Avengers 2, really. Cap 2 changed the universe that Marvel was setting up.

I loved Captain America 2 and overall it was a better film. I enjoyed Guardians of the Galaxy more though.

The movie is looking to make $92 million it's first weekend. Biggest August opening ever. Biggest Thursday screening period ever.
I'm in awe. I'll admit I was a doubter, especially after the first trailer. I just wanted it to not suck and it has performed far above standards. Marvel should be thrilled, because they have done it again.

Haven't seen the film, but the concept of 70s/80s music and making it work within the film's narrative (as part of Quill's mixtape) is something that should be commended.

I would almost be willing to forgive Marvel Studios for the crap they've been doing if they were to do a Darkhawk movie. Of course, the way they've been operating lately, they'd probably make it about Chase Stein instead of Christopher Powell.
