Agreed. Maybe they want to find a perfect story, or maybe Boseman will be too busy. I thought they would have made another one within 2 years.
The problem is being nibbled to death by ducks - $7 for Disney, $10 for Netflix, $9 a month for Amazon, blah, blah, blah.
Oh, great - now I need a whole new television in order to watch it, right...? *sigh* A 2021 release schedule, "Phase IV", and still no Forbush-Man...
Just because Ant-man and the Panther (or ANY other character for that matter) don't have movies with their names in the title, doesn't mean the characters won't be showing up somewhere! As popular as Ant-man & the Panther are, there's NO WAY Marvel won't utilize them in this 'phase II' somehow.
Feige mentioned that new Black Panther, Guardians and Captain Marvel movies are in development, he just didn’t give dates for any of them. And apparently Marvel has to let Sony announce new Spider-Man movies.
Perhaps people will forget how BP was really rather mediocre. Certainly nowhere near as good as many other great MCU productions.
Wait - are you arguing that Marvel wants to delay "Black Panther 2" so moviegoers will forget it was mediocre? The same "Black Panther" that made a kazillion bucks, got rave reviews and was largely loved by audiences?
Yes, the one that was beloved by huge numbers of people who paid to see it multiple times in the theater, then bought the on DVD, Blu-ray and 4K. That one.
Not Captain Marvel, Valkyrie first gay hero. Let me mark that in my “wow” calendar. https://www.google.com/amp/s/io9.gi...ll-be-the-mcus-first-lgbtq-her-1836569528/amp
I think the media circus pushed BP to those numbers. This is exemplified by the rotten tomatoes critic score of 97% for the press but only 79% for the audience. This is on the low end of audience scores for MCU films.
I'm pretty sure I know why the audience # on RT was relatively low - it's a subject that'll get this thread closed, so I'll not discuss it. But it's not because audiences disliked it. No "media circus" makes people go to a movie at the numbers "BP" pulled. It was a genuine cultural phenomenon. I wasn't wild about it myself , but I can't deny it connected with a major audience, and those people can't wait for a sequel. Saying the media made it a hit gives the media way too much credit...
The only relevant point here is that you weren't wild about it yourself and neither was I, and neither were lots of viewers relative to other MCU films that weren't nearly as celebrated, cheered by the press or awarded by various academies. And thanks for not "going there." In this case the elephant in the room is really a mouse.
