MCU Phase 4 General Discussion Thread

Pretty sure it'll be a multiverse thanos armor gamora teaming up with the guardians of the multiverse to stop infinity ultron she may fight tony though

I think we're missing that those can happen within an episode and come from different timelines

 

[Colonel_Krukov]

I'm wondering how Gamora gets Thanos' armour and sword, yet ends up on Sakaar...

Every time I rewatch this fight it's still as good as I remember it

I will never cease to repeat it but this fight was one of the best in the entire MCU and the definitive proof of Strange's power and skills

I can only feel that, the man deserves so much better

Yeah...

I don't think he has the soul stone guys. I know there's 5 on his chest and one on his forehead (mindstone) but that stone on the very left of his chest does not look orange in the slightest. Maybe its just a poor mistake and maybe I'm overthinking it, but it straight up looks like he has 2 mind stones.

That's a error in the coloring itself it's orange in the actual episode

The actual episode contradicts a lot of the poster ultron...

Poser ultron has the reality stone in the center and above the rest of the stones (minus the mind stone on his forehead). Episode ultron has the time stone in the center and below the rest of the infinity stones.

Good catch lol wtf is up with all those errors

 

[Colonel_Krukov]

There's 2 Ultrons

 

[The_one_you_least_expect]

hopefully more time is dedicated to the character development for the large cast

 

[Newendigo]

I keep hearing this whole thing about Tony going to Sakaar and fighting Gamora with Thanos' gear.

Can someone actually tell me from where this comes from? I haven't seen any trailer or tweet regarding this.

 

[Qawsedf234]

What happens a lot of the times is a last minute coloring adjustment or change. Its pretty easy to do for a lot of CGI/Animation effects since it just involves telling a computer to render something a different color. Fant4stic had this happen where they completely changed the Negative Zone in the last couple months before the film released.

I'd guess the artist for the posters got a sketch of an early design that the animators later changed for better color balance or something.

 

[OwenVaunman]

Yep, this man right here

Thanks for quoting me actually, for some reason my notifications keep getting reset on all of the posts I follow. But back to business; I'm pretty sure that Shang-Chi's barely made money considering the insurance they have to spend money on.

 

[Kisaragi_Megumi]

Barely made money

Really? Really?

 

[Qawsedf234]

Really? Really

Most high budget Hollywood movies need to make two-three times their budget to break even due to marketing costs. A 300 million dollar movie making 750 million looks good to the average person but to the exces that's three to four years of time and effort to make a product that barely earned about 1.25x what they put into it.

It's why the DCEU got radically changed, because even if the Synder movies made money in reality they either barely turned a profit or broke even.

There's a reason why Blumhouse horror movies are so successful money wise. Because he gives them a bare minimum budget of a few hundred thousand to a few million dollars, so when something like It Follows or Unfriended becomes a hit it covers the cost of dozens of other movies and then some.

And in terms of Shang Chi it reported costed around 200mil to make

 

[Qawsedf234]

The production cost was 150 to 200 million. Marketing, insurance and other costs not noted in the production cost usually doubles or triples the amount of money put into it.

In other words Endgame didn't cost 300 million to make. But something like 600 or 800 million when everything is accounted for. Shang-Chi making triple it's budget is good, but that basically amounts to a breaking even point/small profit in terms of big numbers. Though it still has plenty of time to make more money

Does anyone find it weird that Post Sakaar Hulk is weaker, but also stronger than Cull Obsidian at the same time?

 

[Colonel_Krukov]

Hulk got done dirty in terms of power levels

 

[Qawsedf234]

Universal's ownership basical kneecapped anything major that Disney wanted to do with him until Disney+.

It's what happened to the X-Men before they bought Fox or that weird meme thing they did where one of the only sponserships they allowed for Fantastic 4 was an Orange Crush soda thing.

Hey Qawsed, could you provide input here? Thanks

How is he weaker and stronger then him?

 

[Coolboy6]

Hulk has weaker AP but somehow has stronger LS

 

[The_one_you_least_expect]

Hulk has weaker AP but somehow has stronger LS

I thought there ap was about equal? With maybe hulk being somewhat above

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

Nope. Nothing indicates so.

 

[OwenVaunman]

Really? Really?

Like what @Qawsedf234 said, marketing and insurance greatly bolsters a movies overall expense, and taking that into account it's possible it still hasn't broke even, and same goes for Black Widow.

Another vs thread. Doctor Strange fights an undead serial killer who hates horny teenagers

For the sake of you guys, you better hope Strange wins ovo

I mean, I'm not a teenager anymore but the other part does affect me^^

Ok so going by the marvel site we didn't see hulk full potential
What y'all Think his full potential is?
I would say slightly weaker than Ragnarok Thor

 

[The_one_you_least_expect]

Where did it say this on the marvel site? Are you talking awakened or pre awakened Thor?
