People are asking 5K. That doesn’t mean anyone is paying it.

Last time I was wound up for a movie was 1977. Skipped my last day of High School to stand in line on the opening night of Star Wars. It was actually fun, sort of a party atmosphere. The couple behind me in line worked for the National Enquirer, and were a hoot. The lady had a cowbell in her purse and started ringing it when the doors opened. All the folks in line started mooing and pressing forward. The ushers actually ran.

Comic books fill the same role as myths and hero takes did for our ancestors. They had Beowulf and Thor, we have Spiderman and...Thor.

I could see the studio PR Sept putting tickets on sale for $5k, then buying them themselves.

I plan to see it. I can wait. Spoilers do not spoil it for me. I have enjoyed much of the MCU heretofore. I plan for Endgame to be my endgame. Disney/Marvel can go Solo without me thereafter.

Entirely correct: C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien would both have agreed with that premise (whether or not they personally enjoyed the comic book medium, or considered it well done).

Similarly, film scores are today’s classical music for the normals. Schoenberg et al deliberately destroyed tonality in officially serious music, making it unenjoyable and even unlistenable.

Having seen several of her films in various genres, I tend to agree.

That much for a product that will not do a damned thing to improve the human condition. Talk about much a-”dough” about nothing.

I was caught up in that as well, but the beginning of the movie made me hate Star Wars for the rest of my life..................A long time ago, In a galaxy far, far, away.............IT’S A DAMNED FAIRY TALE!...........

Now, if it had said, “In the far, far future.........
