Cheers Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 I blame all the people with their "insider info" and "leaked appearances" that got our hype too high. The hype for this movie is HUGE! And everyone is expecting a bunch of cameos. The fact we're not getting that.. well i'm not surprised people felt it was underwhelming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris1991 Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Years of hype, rumor and “spoiler” are prob the main issue for me. I build expectations way to high and expect. Let me stop watching all those theory YouTube videos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will probably be somewhere in the 60-75 range when all is said and done. Sounds reasonable. Wonder why fans are gonna think. Cuz I hear too many conflicting thoughts on the pro’s and con’s. Just gonna wait to see it myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorjesspazze9 Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 (edited) I don’t mind the hype train that fans build. Afterall it’s mostly nerds that expect too much. The GP don’t care about Dozens of cameos tbh. Most people I know who like the MCU movies watch it because it’s fun and are mainly just expecting variants of Docter strange and Wanda. Spoiler The average viewer don’t know what an illuminati is? Professor X is the only one that the general public really knows or cares about. They are coming into this for the idea of multiple versions of the MCU. Not fan cast and theories. We do because we use the internet all day.

ALA Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 The dramatics considering how the film was reshot heavily supposedly at least most people are at least liking it. Movie scooping is soooooo stupid all these people fighting over who reported who's in movies first when we will see the movie eventually, so stupid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildAmerican Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 The RT Consensus: Quote Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness labors under the weight of the sprawling MCU, but Sam Raimi's distinctive direction casts an entertaining spell. Solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOOMBAYAH Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Spoiler I think that if they were gonna have the Illuminati show up and be irrelevant and just die they should’ve at least done major characters? Maybe not ones we haven’t seen, as that would be a waste, but different variants of Ironman, Thor, Black Panther etc, the characters they did that we do know are so boring like no one cares about Captain Carter and Captain Marvel like who gives a **** is Blackbolt and Mordo die like??

The only limit (he talked about it in a great interview) is that the directors must follow a big lore and a bigger vision about the future of the MCU. It is the price to pay for the interconnected stories. He definitely did not have creative control lol, those production and re-shoot rumours scream “Disney made me change sh*t” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rta1913 Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 It's not a catastrophe and this will probably end mid 70's and it will be a hit, BUT this movie was supposed to be a HOMERUN (and an easy one). I mean this is starring two very popular characters, they had everything to make this a Civil War level event. Also, the whole expectations and cameo things, well yes the fans have themselves and the scoopers to blame for, but you don't have a MULTIVERSE movie and act surprised when fans expect for crazy things. They opened that can of worms with the whole variant thing (Loki), alternate scenarios (What If...) and crazy cameos (NWH). Fans love this kind of stuff (see Days of Future Past) so Marvel should've known they had to deliver. It won't be a flop nor a disaster but if this ends up being a general disappointment/letdown, Marvel needs to take a step back and rethink their strategy. Maybe they bit more of what they can chew and it's starting to get really hard to have continuity. Ever since endgame their projects have been received not very well (either critics wise or box office wise, sometimes both) except for NWH. I am still excited for the movie, but I am adjusting my expectations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant wait to watch this tomorrow, didn’t read the spoilers so I did not have any expectations; I still need to see the last 3 What if episodes do I need to see them or is the show ignored?

I am still excited for the movie, but I am adjusting my expectations. The multiverse seems to be a very convoluted thing for Marvel to execute through many films tbh. EEAAO did it in a very simple and effective way. Easy to follow in my opinion. Marvel has not been very clear about what is interconnected and what isn’t this phase. Kevin had to tell is in an interview days ago that Loki caused all of this. Also for the most part every film release before this has been able to stand alone with marvel only kind of implying that the multiverse is coming. I don’t think they had a reason strategy for this. They’re probably saving all the big cameos for like a secret wars event… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they think it could be too much asking. Maybe they are like watch all the movies and if you want you can skip the series, which is dumb.

Gorjesspazze9 Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 I remember when NWH reviewers came out saying the plot was stupid and simplistic. And I mean it kinda was, but it ended up being the best Spider-Man film since Spider-Man 2. I don’t think this will be Eternals like. And it definitely isn’t gonna flop, that narrative is impossible as it’s opening up with over $150 million just because of pre-sales and expected Thursday and Friday numbers. Marvel just can’t lose??

ATRL Moderator Ampersand13 Posted May 4, 2022 ATRL Moderator Share Posted May 4, 2022 Obviously critics only mean so much when it comes to media consumption but I do hope it stabilizes in the low 80s at the very least.
