🙂 Yes, I suppose that's just an indicator of successful marketing—basically, a clever way of baiting people into theaters to pad out the Box Office. There are quite a few instances where certain films have absolutely flopped at the box office simply because the marketing was lackluster, even though the movies themselves were actually quite good.
🙂 I suppose one might wonder if he even bothered to fix up his profile, considering the last time he actually posted on this forum was way back in 2009.
So, my avatar is an animated GIF, 75x75 pixels, about 11 KB, which I uploaded directly from my desktop, and I suppose it has been running perfectly fine for over a decade now.
Maria James94 said:None of the MCU movies really make you stop and think about the themes being presented. You watch them, wait for the post-credit scene to wrap up, and then just move on with your life without a single second spent pondering what you actually saw. The runtime is basically just long enough to let you zone out for a bit so your brain doesn't have to work for those two hours—maybe even catch a nap... if you like the movie, cool. If not, whatever, it doesn't matter.
I suppose we all already know that, which is fine, but I feel like this particular one is just some sort of failed parody.
Just watched it. It’s honestly just a pile of cinematic trash meant to be consumed and immediately forgotten. I suppose the golden era of Marvel effectively died with Endgame, and everything we've seen since then feels like nothing more than a desperate attempt to squeeze every last dollar out of a dying franchise.
The guy who put this trailer together doesn't seem to have much of an ear for pacing, I suppose. Instead of the tension building steadily toward a climax and a strong finish, the whole thing just feels completely diluted in the final third.
And why shouldn't they? I suppose both options are essentially fiction, yet people still obsess over them. Whether or not someone was telling the truth, the simple reality remains that people trade them, buy them, and act as if they're real.
Look, I suppose this is how I see the situation. Just as you wouldn't walk into the Soap Bar thread and start claiming that soap bars are stupid or that they make people lose their minds—where instead, the discussion stays focused on the actual product, the actors, and whatnot, which is really its own little universe—I feel the same applies to the cryptocurrency threads. You aren't there to try and convince them that these currencies are somehow fictional; they are already well aware of that, as they live within that ecosystem, discussing price action, sales, and all that matters to them.

I suppose for NATO, the real issue isn't necessarily sending planes to Ukraine, but rather the complications of launching combat missions directly from NATO bases.
