Maybe - and I know this is just an ABSURD notion - maybe some people here enjoyed the movie, and some didn't, and those folks may have held these opinions without any of it having ANYTHING to do with political leaning?

You just broke a lot of brains with that statement.

I didn't see this posted before so just FYI on the breakeven point for the movie:

According to Deadline, Captain America: Brave New World had a production budget of $180 million, and has a break-even point of around $425 million global box office.

Here is an article that says the total budget was more like 380M

from a guy that claimed it cost 350 million months ago and now has an agenda to prove that he wasn't wildly wrong.

Now, of course ‘Brave New World’ didn’t cost $180M. That’s simply too silly to believe. The actual budget was more than double that. It’s not just that, a few months ago, I had reported the costs on the film to have arisen in the $350M mark, but other journalists have now paralleled what I had originally written.

I don't know how much it cost, and I don't care if it made or lost money, but this whole back and forth battle is old and stale. people rooting for movies to fail so they can claim a win is pretty sad.

I just saw it and I thought it was good. I enjoyed it for what it was.

Seems interesting that adamantium is being introduced into this new MCU, and this movie felt like a new beginning to the MCU and I liked it for that, and what it can lead in to for future movies.

I like Sam as Cap and I like how Bucky came back to tell him why he's Cap and why he doesn't need the serum, and I enjoyed Sam saying "should have taken the serum. Bucky is full of shite".


Just felt like a good beginning to this new phase of the MCU.

I do agree. With.... Gary. Just make The chick a mutant and it makes sense because she was too little to be that tough.

Was the exact same material as the Black Panther suit. Absorbs kinetic energy and channels it back.
They only mentioned that the Wakandans made it but that it glowed the same as T'challa's suit was the only explanation.

False. You didn’t hear this level of disagreement from me during the first 25 films of the MCU.

You are a relative noob. You didn't post here until almost 2022. Well after Endgame. You didn't post here during the rise of the mcu. You came here after covid.

If you look at your post you can clearly see you prefer the political talk board but your threads there get little engagement. So you come here with your crap.
You watch very few films and watch few tv shows. But are one of the most active posters.

Not under this handled, but even so I still saw, and generally liked the first three phases of the MCU.

I don’t give two flips about engagement. I’m just gonna say my mind whether it gets 10 up votes or 20 down votes . The point about politics is that I don’t want it in my movies yet the goddamn studios insist on injecting DEI bullshite where it doesn’t belong.

Sayin stupid shite is all. This is what I mean by empty ad hominems & posts lacking in substance. But my god it’s fun living rent free in some of y’all’s head.
