Oh no no no, pppffftt bwahahaAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA

Tony Stark

Dead

Steve Rogers

A fucking century old, maybe dead

Natasha Romanova

Dead

Thor

Alive and Well

Hulk

Nerfed the fuck out

Hawkeye

Retired

didn't the title already have her name in it with the emancipation shit?

people are finally sick of capeshit

You love to see it

A 22 movie long story arc. Half of them are basically dead or out of the game. Yet the threats keep coming

Note that hawkeye retired before jeremy had the accident. He retired after civil war and only came back in endgame because the snap took his kids. Then retired again (at least implied it) at the end of hawkeye show.

Remake wen

I think they are completely delusional and will ruin Doom's Day, doubling down with the replacements hoping they stick.
The only thing that can save this is if Doom completely shits over all of them and takes over the universe and then the incursion happens in Secret Wars, bringing all the favorite characters back together in the process.

Based

You just said it, they're old.Who wants to see superheroes pushing 50 or 60 saving the world? Listening to their arthritic bones grinding and their geriatric flatulence?

It's literally the ending of the movie, they realized everyone would spoil it the second they got out of the cinema so they're just rolling with it.
This is being fellated as one of the best capeshit movies of the past 5 years actually.

People aren't sick of capeshit, they're sick of shitty writing.

the thing is that I have no idea who any of them are
I remember Bucky the guy with the metal arm, the rest must be from after Endgame which is when I stopped watching

Jeremy Renner says he turned down 'Hawkeye' season 2 because he was offered 'half the money'

"I'm like, 'I'm sorry, why? Did you think I'm only half the Jeremy because I got ran over?' Maybe that's why you want to pay me half of what I made on the first season?"

He added: "And this is not Marvel mind you. This is not even really Disney, it's just the penny pinchers, the accountants. I told them to go fly a kite at the insult offer and so we didn't see eye to eye on that, sadly."

Renner said he "would still love to do" more "Hawkeye" but wants to be paid the same amount as he was for the first season.

jeremy renner will NOT RETURN in avengers the kang dynasty.

Why not just call it The New Avengers? or Untitled Marvel Movie and then reveal the title on opening day?

Either way this is extremely retarded and desperate, will normies care now?

despite the shills propping out this bland ass mediocrity the film is fucking flopping, worse opening weekend than the nigger cap movie which was one of the worst capeshit films period
capeslop is done

If you're not going to do the whole baron zemo and the masters of evil twist is it still even thunderbolts?

My local theater still has it as Thunderbolts

Is Anon Babble really this stupid or are guys just pretending to be this dumb?

Who wants to see superheroes pushing 50 or 60 saving the world?

Deadpool and Wolverine was the biggest capeshit hit in a while. Jackedman is 56.
They’re bringing back RDJ for their next tentpole movie. He’s 60.
They want to bring back the original Xmen for the next phase including Patrick Stewart 84, Ian McKellen 85. Kelsey Grammar rumoured to reprise Beast at 70.

Talking shit about old farts pretending to be superheroes when it’s all that’s selling and their Hail Mary bet.

The “young avengers” got renamed because all their passing the torch actors are 30.

spoil it the second they got out of the cinema so they're just rolling with it.

Does anyone actually give a shit?

"omg the actual name is le new avengers"

Doubt it

this did $75m opening weekend

Yup, MC and the red captain america guy are from the black widow movie
Half-black woman is from an Ant-man movie
Dark blue/black Captain America is from Falcon and the winter soldier

The whole thing is giving secondary characters from the past few shitty productions a second chance to ingratiate themselves to the public, through a filler story about depression and feeling utterly worthless in life.

RDJ

Recycled

Chris Evans

Now in the promising Red One franchise

Scarlett Johansson

Sued the mouse

Chris Hemsworth

Dying

Mark Ruffalo

Wore a pin celebrating Jew lynching in West Bank (his services will no longer be required)

Jeremy Renner

Drug addict, threatened to murder his ex wife, tried to eat his baby (serious)

retarded idea

falcon with the shield is supposed to be making the new avengers team but he took too long

he was on his break

There's a 14 month timeskip and the son of a bitxh STILL doesn't hace a team.

I thought the young Avengers were going to be Ms Marvel, Kate Bishop, Cassie Lang, maybe She-Hulk etc.

looks like they got some screws loose, let me guess, thunderbolts?

I had no idea Thor DW opened that high

Who wants to see superheroes pushing 50 or 60 saving the world?

I just read through Earth-X last night and thats the basic premise.
A terrigen mist bomb gives everyone super powers and cap, tony stark, and reed richards are old and washed up and coping with a world where everyone has super powers and they have to figure out what being a hero means, and them figuring out how to save a doomed earth.

MCU is boring and sexless. And that horrid woke F4 movie is coming.its not looking good

Thor

Alive and Well

He became a fucking clown that even chris hemsworth was ashamed

well we don't know that. we just know that from the end of brave new world, to the ending of the thunderbolts he hasn't made a team. Maybe the reason he is suing is because he does have a full team by then and is ready to announce to the public

Also it's implied that Fury is only giving important info to him.

Typically speaking sequels will always do better than the first movie, and this was still early marvel so people were still excited to see the experiment develop.
Also theatrical runs used to be longer. Now if the movie doesn't hit a sales record on opening weekend its shucked to vod and streaming.

McKellen looked fucking ancient in the Hobbit movies, and Unexpected Journey is damn near 15 years old now.

promising Red One franchise

Litty post fellow Rockhead. Let’s piss our pants to more top cinematic experiences. Use my code for 20% off all supplements.

this will surely reverse our film's lacklustre box office performance

Oh yea Fury is in space now. I kind of just assumed the president was giving him that info.

you wouldn't expect to pay a eunuch is much as a real man

has this ever been done before? this is so fucking embarrassing lmao

Fridge.

Shit i hope so
It's genuinely so much better than the last i'd be sad if it underperforms it after 2/3 weeks.

once before

Natasha Romanova

First time I've seen someone spell her name correctly instead of "Romanoff".

Why? Did the asterisk on the name didn't give you a clue that thunderbolts is not their real title

this was planned months ago when they added the * to the title, dummy

They mostly did that because the box office was shit and the title made it seem like a Birds of Prey movie featuring Harley Quinn when it was much more a Harley Quinn movie featuring the Birds of Prey

yikes, is this an AI bot or an actual person paid to shill for Yisney?

Are we officially back?

My negro it was literally the most talked about thing about a movie that was seen as a late Suicide Squad ripoff until last weekend

it's not near winter soldier level
but it's better than the post end game slop

no, it's paid shills and it's flopping harder than nigger cap

i don't get it

chuds hate this image

75 is actually good. i thought it would be worse. the mental health propaganda worked

Word of mouth will save the movie.

this is a gimmick, but get this: it's a gimmick that makes us LOSE money

genius!

And good streaming sites have the full movie in good quality?
Only one I've seen around has RGB bouncing around the screen, the audio quality sucks, and it ends prematurely.

I think it's a cute gimmick but it's just going to confuse normal people and fuck up all the advertising they did with the name Thunderbolts.

it's not good
the movie cost 180 million just like Captain KFC
Captain KFC had an opening weekend of 86 million and flopped extremely hard cause 400 million is not enough to recoup 180 million plus marketing costs
just like Detroit, America Thunderbolts is also flopping hard overseas
kill yourself shill

If they are the Avengers who are the Thunderbolts.

Anon Babble has unironically always been one of the worst boards. It used to be nonstop pedo shit and the occasional forced meme before Reddit took over. Now it just shits on everything, no matter what. It’s one of the boards along with Anon Babble and Anon Babble that actively just hates everything the board is for discussing. Everything new is shit, everything old is shit, blah blah blah. It’s just the new gen of kids thinking shitting on everything makes them funny and smart but it’s just stupid.

shill cope

Yelena's childhood soccer team that never won at anything
Red Guardian remembers it because one of the girls shat on the field mid match once.

they were just pretending to be retarded

who are the Thunderbolts

more important question is who are the thunderbraps

I don't believe for a second BNW cost only 180 million
I'm pretty sure the director or someone else confirmed the recorded the entire movie twice.

They call themselves the thunderbolts for the entire film, at the end of the film a higher up at the cia that wants to save face and not get impeached reveals that this is the new avengers team and that she is the one that recruited them. Nobody actually calls them the avengers besides this one chick. Everyone in universe acknowledges that they aren't the real avengers.

Yeah, Captain Falcon is even planning on suing them over the rights to the Avengers brand at the end.

They're doing this to combat the terrible word of mouth MCU films have been getting which kills their second weekend on. Just change the title to confuse people and remove the stink.

Ant-Man

Still alive and kicking

movie's title changed

does this ever help?

Pugh and Kirby will be the only female leads in Doomsday and Secret Wars, which will be sausage fests.

Implying he has the balls to stand up to Disney.

Why does Sam even have the rights to the Avengers name?

Those characters are literally immortal though. So it's a bit easier to suspend belief

disney have a long history of lying about the budget
multiverse of madness is a good example with a reported budget of 200 mill
but then some journalists went digging and found it was double that thanks to tax break documents they got from filming in the UK
they seem to put it right around that mark every time or close to it

multiverse of madness

quantumania

the marvels

brave new world

they never cost 180-200 million, it's always double that forbes.com/sites/carolinereid/2024/05/11/disney-reveals-doctor-strange-2-cost-more-to-make-than-avengers-2/?sh=22fd0bc57d54

Bantsman

I thought this was a joke at first. Why would you do this?

Wtf is this real??

Jurassic World Dominion is now the most expensive film of all time cause it was found out it got massive tax breaks from UK as well

I find it funny that the reaction to this are similar to the credits lol

if all those movies cost 400+ fucking million then they all were expected what, to make like a billion and a half in box office? are Marvel executives that retarded or do they not give a shit if that slop flops?

thunderbolts legitimately seemed pretty low budget in comparison. i didn't see the film but nothing in clips so far looks very costly.

NO NO NO THIS CANT BE HAPPENING NOT THE HECKIN SPOILERS!!! I WAS LITERALLY SEEING THE MOVIE TOMORROW AND THEY SPOILED IT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

retards who have no idea what tax break is
the "plus tax break" budget means how much the film would have actually cost the studio if they weren't given the tax break
Yeah, Dr Strange WOULD cost 400 million without a tax break and Dominion WOULD be the most expensive film of all time without a tax break but cause they got those tax breaks the studios did not actually spend that money, it's like discount
only the actual money spent by the studio matters

Sebastian Stan is replacing Thunderbolts posters with The New Avengers posters.

this is fucking embarrassing

This shit should be illegal

imagine being stuck in your capeshit role for 14 years

They realized that the movie wasn't making any money and are praying that changing the name will result in people going to see the newest Avenger's movie.
For marketing absolutely the Avenger's tittle is worth more then Thunderbolts.

It's because it's part of a huge conglomeration, so even if things look stupid, there's a way that mandating more shitty and expensive movies has positive effects for things in other divisions or various things down the road.
For instance, Marvel Rivals is making $billions every quarter and Disney gets to take a portion for free due to licensing.

I think it's neat

Holy shit cat posters are so cringe. It's so obvious a man that likes to avatar as a cat is going to have utter obsolete opinions

secured job

huge bag of money secured

I mean, what’s not to love? Dude ain’t getting a lot of roles outside of it

to avatar

Go back.

Edge of Tomorrow and Live, Die, Repeat. No the 2nd one isn't a better title and no it didn't stop this from being a great fucking movie.

That's what he's doing

The movies are dead. I might not even go see mi 9. Pirating with iptv is so easy and honestly less stressful. If I had infinity money and this free time I don't even know that I would bother with kinoplexes.

kang dynasty.

WE WUZ

how do they dod that

The actuals just came out. $74.3M domestic weekend on the low end of estimates, and a 28% Sat to Sun drop. It's not looking good for legs, it'll be interesting if the *New Avengers rebranding makes a difference.

Even after skimming through this entire thread, I'm not convinced that this is real. It's just way too retarded, even for Disney.

formerly thunderbolts

The president said he wants to remake the avengers team with Sam as the captain. It's under the assumption that the president's team is more legit than this cia chicks avengers team. Also sam's team has actual avengers on it (captain marvel, hulk, etc.) so it's under the assumption that any new team is an impersonator.

Odd request, but doesn't anyone know what that headline font is?

maybe the whole point is to have news stories about the title and poster change so people keep talking about the movie (like we're doing now)

"Quick! Everyone drive up to Burbank. We need to take a new promo photo for this dog!"

why is Julia L-D in this?

Is this why they keep putting an asterisk in "Thunderbolts*"? I still don't get why they keep insisting on spelling it that way everywhere. No, I haven't and won't watch any of the trailers, ads, or the movie itself.

Poor Olga. I guess. Maybe not she's probably still rich. And showing up and smiling probably keeps her MCUs door open to her.

Wait is that the Taskmaster actress?
I tought she'd be madder about getting shot out of the movie, i guess the rumor that she herself complained that her character didn't fit was true.

She has that Seinfeld money and could just kickback and enjoy life. Actors need your applause to exist, like Tinkerbelle.

my sir-friends asking me how can he do that
pls responed

Captain KFC's movie was a production nightmare, with never-ending reshoots so its alleged budget shouldn't be taken seriously. Thunderbolts' production seems to have been normal by comparison. $75m is subpar but it's not a total disaster, as long as the film has decent legs.

Those who have seen the movie will know that Thunderbolts comes from the name of Yelena’s pee-wee league soccer team

Okayyyy...

Standees, digital signage, one sheets and PLF and Imax one sheets in the top theater NYC and LA circuits have updated to reflect the ‘new’ title of *The New Avengers.

Mutton dressed as lamb.

no, you dont understand. they grew up. this shit has been going for a while, you see. they are interested in other things now, mostly pussy and penis. contrary to popular belief, geekdom is still somewhat niche, despite seeming otherwise because the cashflow tells you. makes you wonder how much of those numbers are real in the first place, especially from the big players.

She has way more than "that Seinfeld money"
Her father was a businessman worth $3.4 Billion
She never needed Seinfeld to kick back.

For the record my Arizona AMC has the photo as New Avengers and the title as Thunderbolts*. They are definitely trying to meme here but hasn't gone all the way yet.

i like it

i had no idea who any of the characters were but the not capitan america was pretty fun character. >she took his mutt child

Official Marvel social media and Fandango are still calling it "Thunderbolts*", but sometimes call it "Thunderbolts* The New Avengers". At most, if there is a name change, it's just adding "The New Avengers" as a subtitle instead of being a full title change.

It is, one of the marketing things was people asking what the asterisk meant and cast members and Feige going "Oh, I don't know, guess you'll have to see the movie to find out." And since they had all this shit ready to go after the first weekend, this was all part of the intended marketing of the movie to try and put butts in seats.

one of the marketing things was people asking what the asterisk meant and cast members and Feige going "Oh, I don't know, guess you'll have to see the movie to find out."

I guess an attempt was made, but this just seems lame.

And also:
All you Need is Kill

it's one thing to reveal it at the end, it's like a sequel bait
it's another to actually retitle the movie and right after the opening weekend
I called it though

It kind of reeks of insecurity, like they knew marketing it straight wouldn't work so they needed to trick everyone first.

this would be an interesting meta narrative technique if anyone gave a shit

Puts an asterisk on Thunderbolts so he can claim they actually got an Avengers Film out for Kang Dynasty's date.

Amazing Le Creative Capeshit dad

What about Hawkeyes penis?

That fake excitement

I feel like capeshit being a huge phenomenon and falling off will be studied for a long time. Most of this is self-inflicted

Why are they all pretending this is exciting or surprising in any way?

fucked up the peel

KEKAROO

Ngl the all seem extremely fucking drunk to me.

These are professional actors. How can they be this unconvincing? Their only job is pretending, and they can't even do it.
