It was Fern Gully with eye porn visual effects. I saw it once in the theater and have never been tempted to watch it again.

No thanks on seeing this 3 + hour movie again in theaters just for some post credits scene/additional footage. Plus , the post credits scene will be on Youtube rather quickly anyways.
Some writer at the Washington Post had a good write up comparing Endgame vs Avatar's box office runs. Both are insanely impressive as hell but it favors Avatar. I was aware that there wasn't as many movie theaters in China back when Avatar came out. But I wasn't aware at just how much expansion they've done there. excerpt from the article... Back then, the country as a whole had just under 5,000 screens. Wanna guess how many it has now? There are now an estimated 60,000 movie screens in China. (The United States has 41,000.) This makes for an astonishing figure for “Avatar.” That movie managed to take in more than a third as much as “Endgame” in China, despite theater capacity that wasn’t even a 10th of what it is now. https://www.washingtonpost.com/busin...=.a18add83c21b |

Both films have had incredible historic box office runs. But I still side with Avatar's as it was more of a risk at the time (a no name actor starring in a $200 million + budget sci film about big blue aliens compared to an established franchise starring dozens of big name actors/actresses) . |

Rumors of Mark Wahlberg being the next Cap. Shoot me in the face now.

Ancient thread... Just saw the movie... The time travel thing always seems cheap...
So, no stones in the current MCU? If new timelines are created, like when Thanos jumps to the future, what happened in original one? No Thanos, no snap. It's the problem with time travel; either it already happened and is immutable or time is fluid. It all depends on the perspective, it was the past for the Avengers and the future for Thanos. Yeah, the Multiverse, string theory, quantum physics, entanglement, etc. How exactly did that conversation between Red Skull and Cap go? Why didn't Strange just get the time stone and use it to locally back up time and bring Tony back? That's the problem with using time travel and then saying something can't be done. |
