Rotten:
Thor: Ragnarok or Inhumans (barring it gets made)
Fresh:
Suicide Squad (Margot Robbie makes it fresh just because you get to look at her)

Wait, Captain Marvel was a dude last I checked.
Fawcett Publications was tired of being embroiled in a (mostly horseshite) lawsuit w/DC and thought super hero comics were a fad that had passed so they stopped publishing Captain Marvel comics in the early 50s. They let the trademark lapse and Marvel then created their own Captain Marvel. DC eventually purchased the rights to the Fawcett Captain Marvel but b/c Marvel had the trademark would publish Captain Marvel comics under titles like Shazam! and Power of Shazam. This led to the fairly recent name chance of the character to Shazam as it was apparently too hard for people to comprehend the characters name was different than the title of the books.

sorry but considering how much DC was plagiarizing the frick out of other works back then (to the point they even ripped off stuff from CM comics) the lawsuit was more b/c they were pissed Captain Marvel was outselling Superman than anything.

Gladiator, Tarzan, Doc Savage, John Carter and Popeye all say hi to Superman.
Zorro and The Shadow also sends their regards to Batman.

You're derailing the thread bro.
Posted on 4/20/16 at 11:12 am to lsutigersFTW
Marvel has this down to a science, I doubt any Marvel film posts a rotten score.

You did that yourself w/your s baw
as for the OP Suicide Squad will probably be fresh and I don't think any of the Marvel movies will fall into the rotten category.
The closest they've been were Thor 2 and Incredible Hulk. I don't think they will screw up a Thor/Hulk buddy movie so badly it goes rotten though.

Until 2010 "Captain Marvel" was Billy Batson (Shazam). Marvel sued DC and won, so they had to change the name.
Carol Danvers used to be "Ms. Marvel". Once they did the reprint, Carol became "Captain Marvel" and "Miss Marvel" is now a Pakistani Inhuman girl from New Jersey named Kamala Khan.
Rogue got her flight powers by absorbing Danvers' abilities and Xavier had to restore her memories.

Nope. It was a decision by DC based on the public associating the character with Shazam more than with the name Captain Marvel. No lawsuit involved. They could go back to calling him Captain Marvel today if they wanted to.

yes and no
Marvel did threaten to sue them and sent a cease and desist in the early 70s but the result was DC couldn't market him as Captain Marvel. They didn't have to change the name though. They did that b/c they decided everyone knew him as Shazam.

For me I think either Doctor Strange or Thor will be the first rotten for Marve
Anyone who knows where the Thor storyline is going knows that movie will definitely not be rotten. There's a major event in that movie that will kick you in the nuts
Doctor Strange might not be in the high 90s,but I'd be surprised if it went rotten.

Agreed. Cannot wait for this movie

I think that movie looks awesome. I'm surprised there hasn't been any rotten films up to this point. Some of them have been laughably bad (looking at you IM 3)

Rotten: Spider-Man: Homecoming
Fresh: Suicide Squad

Since it takes place after Guardians 2, it's very possible that Thanos or one of his subordinates lays waste to Asgard and takes the Tesseract.
