If it actually comes out during the Chinese New Year period, it will likely flop due to all the Asian blockbusters/ CNY movies coming out. I think this will affect Chinese speaking South East Asia market too.
RIP in peace

It just coming out at a really bad time for the Chinese speaking market lol. I think it will do fine otherwise but other Asia movies will be stealing eyeballs and are more suitable for the festive period.I don't think Marvel/Disney were expecting too much Chinese box-office for Panther.
I'm sure there will be people internationally who will watch this film because of the Marvel Studios name, but I forecast that this film in particular is going to lean more on its domestic box-office to make a profit. This movie is going to be the real test of how strong the Marvel brand is because of how unapologetically black it is.
If this movie doesnt pull it's weight (domestic/international) I won't be surprised if we don't get a sequel for awhile. Especially with that Fox deal in 2019. Im expecting 600 something WW.

Also, Jon Schnepp from Collider has clarified his recent statement about Spider-Man appearing in the Venom solo movie, and explains it'll be Peter Parker, as he has seen Tom Holland film on set for at least two days:
"Our approach to [Steve Rogers] was to deconstruct him, to take him in a different direction," Russo told Fantasy Focus Football. "Obviously you can't deal with a character called Captain America without dealing with the thematics behind that, so we wanted a relevancy to it and we wanted to put him in a position where he was questioning the chain of command."
You'll see in these Avengers films, he's on a very specific journey as a character," Russo said. "Some people have suspected that he may be Nomad heading into Avengers 3 and I wouldn't say that he is exactly Nomad, but he is the spirit of that character."
Why is this a problem for you?
If Venom bombs, it'll be easy for Marvel Studios to brush it aside by not referencing it.
If it ends up being successful, it'll be a nice complement to MCU Spider-Man.
Would be funny if Disney was like, "We don't want Tom Holland in this... but check this, you can put all the Inhumans in there!"It's part of the MCU just like SHIELD and The Defenders are. As in, Feige don't care.
I keep forgetting, but have they actually cast anyone for that movie yet?

I think they cast someone for Spider-Man: Homecoming 2 a few days ago, but the casting or any other castings for the movie haven't been announced yet. We will probably get some casting announcements closer to where the filming starts on May 28.I keep forgetting, but have they actually cast anyone for that movie yet?
FROM COMICS TO SCREEN – CREATING "MARVEL'S CLOAK & DAGGER"
It used to be that you would read a comic book and transport yourself to a place that you fantasized being a part of. Today's television viewing has created long-lasting opportunities for those fantasies to become real, with fan-favorite comic book properties that we grew up with becoming mainstream, appointment entertainment. Stories that we know and love are now brought to our many screens, but how do you ensure that the monumental characters are accurately portrayed? How do you take those characters that were created over 20 years ago and translate their intimate journeys for today's viewer, when those characters were created in a different social landscape? And are those journeys necessarily so different now than they were then? Join the producing team behind "Marvel's Cloak & Dagger" and series stars for a discussion about creating "Cloak" aka "Tandy Bowen" and "Dagger" aka "Tyrone Johnson" – a pair of young adults navigating a world of complexity, separating from parents, creating relationships and forming their own identities. While many of these challenges sound familiar, our young heroes have newly discovered superpowers that only make their journeys more complicated…
"Marvel's Cloak & Dagger" is a coming-of-age series based on the beloved comic characters and is co-produced by Marvel Television and ABC Signature Studios. Moderated by Alicia Lutes, Managing Editor, @Nerdist and Host, #Fangirling Panel participants will include:
Jeph Loeb (EP, Marvel's Head of Television)
Gina Prince-Bythewood (Director, "Marvel's Cloak & Dagger")
Olivia Holt ("Marvel's Cloak & Dagger")
Aubrey Joseph ("Marvel's Cloak & Dagger")
Joe Pokaski (EP, "Marvel's Cloak & Dagger")
Could a Sentry movie ever work in the MCU? I have no idea how they'd explain his existence but I just saw The Void introduced to the Marvel phone game and thought of Sentry in the MCU.
Captain Marvel and Black Panther were probably the heroes I was always anticipating seeing on the big screen the most, and I'm definitely part of the Carol Corps fan club. I know what you'll be going through, but at least they are starting to bread feed us with behind-the-scenes images, and before long we'll have set photos, and probably also an official look at her and a trailer before the end of the year. But yeah, that drought from August-March is gonna be harsh, it'll be the time we'll be looking for the smallest of scrabs of Captain Marvel pieces lol.
