SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING Passes $100 Million in China, Closes in on GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2's Final Total

@mastakilla39 - Civil War outgrossed Rouge One by $100 million last year .

@Jazzy4 - Except Logan is a great film.

@Jazzy4 - To the general audience, Logan is a forgettable film. I'd agree with you 100 percent there. Us die hard fans don't forget so easily. But, Logan is weird.

Beneath the novelty of its vulgar humor, “Deadpool” is simply another superhero origin story. Likewise, beneath the novelty of its blood and gore, “Logan” is simply another “gritty & grounded” comic book film.

The difference between the two is that I actually like “Logan” more because it doesn’t use the R rating as a crutch and it's just a BETTER film.

@BillGrave - I don't think box office makes Logan forgettable to the GA. I just think the film is in general to them. My parents for example, saw it, thought it was okay, but they couldn't tell you way thwir fave scene was. Neither could my one roommate. Not to speak for every GA member but, its sad that my folks like my parents remember more from Fast 8. Logan is a great film nevertheless. 

Deadpool is a parody I agree. But here’s what I keep coming back to – didn’t Kick-Ass already do this?

The film centered around a young boy named Dave who decides to emulate the heroes he reads in comic books by dressing up as a superhero to fight local crime. Before he knows it, Dave is tangled up in a battle against an evil business tycoon and is teaming up with an established vigilante, Big Daddy, and his daughter/side-kick-in-training Hit-Girl. Kick-Ass was relentless in its violence, liberal with its foul language and heavy with homages to comic book tropes and subtle jibes at previous comic book adaptations. It was brilliant, hilarious and beautifully shocking. It never took an easy road out, and always surprised its audience.

Deadpool did all of this but benefited from amazing marketing, a recognizable lead, and being tied (albeit loosely) to the X-Men universe. It's almost a retread of what Kick Ass did as a criticism and parody of superhero movies but woth different mythology. Kick Ass even spoke to his audience to an extent. 

It's just my take obviously. I enjoyed Deadpool, really. It's fun.

I'm looking forward to Deadpool 2 purely for seeing Wade play off of Cable and Domino which should at least be fun and new.

@BlackBeltJones - Also i would say all my friends remembered the scenes from logan, but i agree i cant speak for everyone.

Also they dont live on planet earth.

@BlackBeltJones - Fair enough.

@LEVITIKUZ - The CG is pretty rough at points. Didn't ruin the movie for me, though.
