    Ciara could benefit so much from a movie career. It’s a steady job once you have the contract and she needs the money to fund the rest of her career.

    Now all we need is an accurate Storm.

    I wonder why The Huntsman didn’t do as well.

      It also got penned by the critics…. and all his movies outside marvel flop
      .
      Poor Chris H… After infinity war I don’t see it for him

        He and his brother are just not that good as actors. I swear his brother was the absolute worst actor in the Hunger Games (which had an amazing cast where everybody had their moment to shine). Only good thing is that he is vegan or that´s what I´ve heard 🙂

    Good for them I actually liked it but Winter soldier >>>>> civil war
    .
    And surprisingly even tho it’s a BvS rip-off it was a lot better than it and BvS itself was a great movie
    .
    Despite Marvel sabotaging it, if it weren’t for the critics we all know BvS would have done 200 in its third week WW and over a billion
    .
    Can’t wait for S****** squad

    • Who gonna check me boo?? May 2, 2016

      Yes keep it real with the DC ?????? those marvel movie are mostly wayyy too kid friendly but civil war was good

  5. Weezy Tha Goat/Zayn Is ? May 2, 2016

    Might have to see this.

    And there’s still children in African countries that are dying. I guess the old saying stays true – the rich keep getting richer and the poor stay poorer.

  8. JOHNVIDAL May 2, 2016

    So it is doing less than Age of Ultron everywhere, which at the same time also did less than the first Avengers everywhere 🙂
    Seriously. marvel is so overrated it is not even funny. It is not bad, but it is not masterpiece of cinema while any other franchise gets trashed, just no. I see BvS had a bigger opening in the UK for example 🙂
