    I’m in for 28 Years Later and Mission Impossible but I think the majority of movie lists are just uninspiring and boring.

    Looking forward to 1, 2 and 6. The rest aren’t on my radar.

    A lot of this stuff capitalizes on our desire for nostalgia. When shit is going bad, you reach for something you know and remember fondly. Capitalism banks on that. That’s why we have so many reboots and sequels. It’s not a bad thing if they’re not obvious cash grabs and you just need a pickup, but it’s also very lazy. It’s another sign that a cultural plateau is where everything is at.

    The reality is that the majority of movie viewers want more of what feels safe.

      Just 1 & 2 here. The rest just look like cash-grabs.

        I’m looking forward to 6 because I like Anthony Mackie (Twisted Metal was awesome) and want to see how his story goes. The MCU has felt unmoored and that could be a good one in the mix.

          Honestly we could do with a decent “grounded” movie in the MCU, similar to Winter Soldier.

          I think the less powerful superheroes work best in detective-type stories.

    I’m bookmarking this so that when I’m feeling depressed about my lack of creativity I’ll just look at this list.

    Yeah, I wanna see Florence Pugh’s sarcastic kickass character, though. I’d watch her and Deadpool be the most cynical trash-talking adversaries over like 7 seasons … and somehow Phil Coulson is in it too with Fury pulling a Bosley.

    Yeah, I’d watch the hell out of that.

      Select big studio movies, sort by marketing budget descending

      Kevin Feige said we will find out when the movie releases, but fans have already come up with theories.

      No one knows for sure yet.

      Watch the trailer.

      David Harbour says, “We are the THUNDERBOLTS!”

      title screen appears

      The rest of the team indicates they don’t like that name.

      asterisk appears next to the title

    What is Thunderbolts? Just MCU’s version of Suicide Squad?

    I can’t believe the only entry on this list that isn’t an unnecessary sequel or an extremely unnecessary reboot is a fucking video game movie.

    Because those are never trash, right?

    People voted for this shit? Or were there just no other choices on the ballot?

    28 Years Later is directed by Danny Boyle, the same director of the original. Alex Garland wrote the original. Garland and Boyle wrote 28 Years together.

    I think I’ll give it a chance.

        I’ve deliberately not watched the trailer to avoid spoilers. Yes, I’m one of those people.

          Normally I’m the same way; nearly every movie I’ve been excited to see in theaters, I’ve made a point to avoid the trailers for it. But with 28 Years Later, I was excited to see the trailer again when I went to a movie, after already watching it intentionally. It’s what a trailer should be, instead of the usual “here are the best scenes, funniest jokes, and every major plot point” we usually get

            You gave me an excuse to do something I wanted to do anyway. I just watched it, and it was great! Thanks!
