I was one of those who saw it on opening day (along with Mrs. Hoagy62). It was the first time I'd ever been in a sold-out theater. I expected a rowdy crowd, but the people were quiet, and during the film they were utterly silent, hanging on every word, except for laughing at the jokes and sight gags, and the occasional gasp of shock or surprise.
It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience, and worthy of ALL the hype generated over the last couple of months. I doubt there will ever be a film that equals the monetary intake this film generated.
Don’t spoli the ending for people who havent seen it yet.
CaptainAmerica comes out as gay.
Amazing box office performance. More than $100 million ahead of Infinity War and Force Awakens North American openings.
My grandkids will be dragging me to this.
I saw it last night with my sons. We loved it. A three hour movie that went by too quickly. The ending was very satisfying. Captain America did not come out gay. In fact, now that it was mentioned, I don’t think there is one gay character in the whole movie.
None of that money was mine.
Thought it was ironic that the real Captain Marvel (or “Shazam”) beat “Captain Marvel” (Ms. Marvel) at the box office anyhow.
Saw it this morning. It was fun. Brought back some memories as a kid. I am not sure if I would give it a 9 of 10. At one point after a Capt “speech” my wife leaned over and said, “Now watch him go off on a rant about his politics.” She kind of killed the moment.
Worth the read for those who care about their kids. Let’s just say that God is not giving this one a thumbs up.
When Hollywood puts out entertainment rather than propaganda - we’ll all show up to cheer... Thanks to both of you (Mrs. Hoagy62 too) for sharing your ‘two thumbs up’ review!
I was excited when Thanos won and killed all of the Avengers
Hits the normal politically correct messages while still being entertaining. Has a buried build the wall message from Stark for Trumpers. Has a side character three line gay reference but family and self sacrifice keeps the movie afloat. But in the end if your a Caucasians male just remember to please step aside.
SERIOUSLY ?
This can only be called “Adults” paying attention to cartoons.
Our tickets are for this afternoon. I am looking forward to it!
Grown men who like comic book movies must turn in their man card.
I liked it, but I think the 3+ hour run time was unnecessary since IMHO the pacing was too slow in parts.
1.2 billion and the weekend is not done. Iron Man (1) 585 million over the course of its run. Either there is a lot more inflation than the government admits (in theater ticket prices), or there is a “phenomena” going on. Or, both.
Tell me how much is charged per seat.
Knew this thing would be crazy.. however honestly I thought the movie was Meh.
Going tonight. Can’t wait.
Yes, biggest blockbuster in history.
