any males interested in this?


any males interested in this?

I mean, I see the poster and immediately think:
Girl Ghost Busters 2016
V for Vagina-driven Charlie's Angels 2019

ZERO interest. Especially after the last Marvel crap fest. I'm male.

I'll see it sometime down the line, but I won't be rushing to see it on opening day like I did with the previous Marvel films. There's nothing that convinces me that it's must-see entertainment and Marvel's recent output has been spotty.

reply

Women don't seem too interested, either. Maybe it's internalized misogyny.

reply

Must be. The patriarchy controls all. We're all just puppets

I have a ticket for a showing on Thursday night 11/9. The first Captain Marvel film is one of the better films of the MCU, and I am looking forward to this film. I have to wonder-- why do you think gender have anything to do with a person being interested in seeing this? Do you assume people only go see films where the protagonist is of the same gender as them?

reply

historically, films that look like they may be marketed more toward women don't do as well with the male segment. yes, there are occasional winners but not the majority.

i was curious if this one succeeded at marketing to males here. apparently it works as there is interest shown here.
to me it looks like "Yaya sisterhood of the traveling women being superheros having never earned it pants". Blah. someone wakes up, suddenly super powers, never learned, no trials, not earned. meh.

gender affects profits and return on investments. if males tween 15 and 35 throw the most money as cinema, you don't make BROS and expect it to be a hit. know the audience, AND taper expectations.

YOU KEEP POSTING...YET SEEM TO KNOW NOTHING...WEIRD.

I am because I'm not a fragile little man that only watches movies about buffed macho men like The Expendables.

No interest. The problem is that Hollywood can't show women being beat up. So this women super-trio will beat any male villains like it's a walk in the park. No drama, no hero's journey, no interest. Like how hard it was in the first Capt. Marvel movie to beat up the villain Yon Rogg? Like one second.

WELL...YOU ARE VERY WRONG.

reply

Explain then, I'm interested.

WATCH A FEW OF THESE MOVIES YOU SPEAK ABOUT...YOU ARE WRONG.

reply

I've watched every Marvel movie, you still didn't explain why I'm wrong.

That's woman vs woman. I was talking about women vs male villains. If villains are also women, then it's going to suck for another reason, female villains are boring. If asked from movie fans who are the best villains in movies, then they're all male. Darth Vader, emperor Palpatine, Thanos, Hans Gruber, Anton Chigurgh etc. No woman is usually mentioned even in top20.

WOW...YOU HAVE A WHOLE SET OF SHITTY RULES...ENJOY BEING MISERABLE AND LONELY...HARD PASS ON FURTHER COMMUNICATION WITH YOU.

reply

No, these are not 'my rules', but that's how things have been so far. Can you name some memorable female villains, especially in big budget and superhero movies?

P.S You have some problems with your caps lock, try to fix it.

wasting time on KOWPIESKI is pointless. it fights with zero ammo, just to fight

A DAY LATE AND EMPTY HEADED TO BOOT...BUT DAMN...THE EGO ON YOU...14 YEAR OLDS ARE IRRITATING.

reply

Yeah, he has nice arguments like 'you're wrong' with no explanation. Also using caps lock all the time hints that there's something very wrong with him.

reply

The caps lock is supposed to be his shtick. While everyone else knows only an ass hole does that.

reply

At least his youtube-link isn't with caps lock :)

YOU APPEAR TO BE NEW...MAYBE WE GOT OFF ON THE WRONG FOOT...I APOLOGIZE IF THAT IS THE CASE...THERE IS NO REASON TO BE HATEFUL AND MEAN IN EVERY EXCHANGE GOING FORWARD...THIS IS MOVIECHAT....I LOVE MOVIES...AS YOU ARE HERE TOO I AM ASSUMING YOU LOVE THEM AS WELL...WHY NOT BOND OVER COMMON ISSUES INSTEAD OF DIVIDING OVER PETTY DISAGREEMENTS?


WHAT ARE SOME OF YOUR FaVORITE MOVIES?


TV SHOWS?


HOWEVER YOU WANT TO FORMAT YOUR ANSWER IS GREAT.🙂

reply

No, I'm not new here, I've been here for years, I just don't comment very often. About that 'got off on the wrong foot'. I'm not very interested in chatting with you, because I have concluded that a person who writes in capital letters all the time and uses three dots instead of a period does not know grammar, based on my past experiences. Or there something else very wrong with that person.

reply

So you're a jerk, thanks for making that clear.

reply

Listen, my friend. I am very capable of many things. However, that would not be me. I have to be me...THAT SAID...YOUR COMMENTS ARE DICKISH AND YOUR "BEEN HERE FOR YEARS" IS BULLSHIT...NOW...YOU WANT TO BE FRIENDS OR NOT?...WHAT MOVIES ARE YOUR FAVORITES?...WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE TV SHOW?...GIVE ME SOMETHING.
