Given the fact that both MIB 3 and the Avengers are Marvel movies, this has been a very good year for Marvel movies-aside from that lame Ghost Rider: Spirit Of Vengeance abomination. Now all that remains for the Amazing Spiderman to do well and Marvel will be all set for this year.
On a separate note, why the hell is Marvel not promoting MIB 3 like all its other movies this year? Given the fact that MIB was once part of its Malibu imprint, wouldn't this be a good reason to resurrect that franchise? If Marvel had any brains, they would consider that instead of just leaving that imprint in limbo when they still can make money off of it.

Because it really isn't a "marvel" movie since it's a columbia pictures not Disney or Marvel/Paramount venture. On top of that Spider-Man isn't really a marvel movie either it just like MiB is Columbia.

Yeah, I always wondered why Marvel never really did anything with MiB.

Meh. I think Smith's a damn good actor. If I hear a film of his is good, I'll look forward to seeing it.

He hasn't been in a good movie since Six Degrees of Separation. Well, Ali was pretty good. But most of his films are CGI garbage.

But Eli Katz is an elite aesthete of the highest order, and I myself find most hyper-modern Hollywood movies too boringly manipulative to watch.

Guilty as charged.

Marvel bought out Malibu years ago and MIB is listed as one of the properties they brought out aside from the Ultraverse. Unless that deal changed when Disney brought out Marvel, it's technically still their product.

That's mostly because Marvel didn't give a rat's ass about Malibu and just brought them out for a cash grab. Look what they did to the Ultraverse if anyone remembers. If Marvel had any brains, they would have given all their products coverage instead of being partial. They didn't even promote Kick Ass either despite how successful that movie was 2 years ago.

You guys are almost killing me with the lack of Prometheus love...

I'm going to see Prometheus.

I don't know if it will be #1 though...

[Victorian Squid]

My mom saw Men In Black 3 and said it was "cute".

[Lord Ice]

The good news is that it has bombed in the UK. But the warm weather is being blamed for it.

[Arion]

Vagina-fueled movies?
What did I miss?

[Rockman]

I don't recall Kick-ass being successful at all.
