His passing was one that we saw coming (his declining health was captured on photo ops across the country) but still shocked and saddened us. So, as a tribute to Stan the Man, the man who had a hand in creating the characters who make up the Marvel Cinematic Universe, we&#8217;ll cop his catch phrase to describe this year in comic book films. Because this was the year comic book films reached upward and onward to greater glory.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-42975\" src=\"http:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Black-Panther-678x340.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"678\" height=\"340\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Black-Panther.jpg 678w, https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Black-Panther-339x170.jpg 339w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 678px) 100vw, 678px\" \/>If you asked any movie pundit at the beginning of 2018 what will be the highest grossing comic book film of the year, the film that had a chance of being a highest domestic-grossing comic book film of all time and the highest grossing picture of the year, those pundits would choose <strong>Avengers: Infinity War<\/strong>. We now know that these pundits would have been wrong. That film would have be <strong>Black Panther<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Black Panther <\/strong>and its success crated a new paradigm in comic book films. Films with predominantly black casts weren&#8217;t supposed to do well at the box office. Black films don&#8217;t do well overseas. First outings by solo heroes don&#8217;t make that much money. <strong>Black Panther <\/strong>proved all that conventional wisdom wrong. It made over $700 million in the U.S., another $646 million overseas and became one of the MCU&#8217;s biggest hits of all time.<\/p>\n<p>The film also provided the blueprint for the next stage of Marvel Studios. The first era was coming to an end with the third and fourth <strong>Avengers<\/strong> films, leaving behind an uncertain future. <strong>Black Panther <\/strong>showed that there are untapped audiences out there looking for super hero representation on the big screen. That should play out well for <strong>Captain Marvel <\/strong>and the in-development <a href=\"http:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/2018\/12\/03\/marvel-studios-has-shang-chi-film-in-development\/\"><strong>Shang-Chi <\/strong><\/a>film. It also proved that the super hero didn&#8217;t need to live in the U.S. in order to make bank, which led credibility to the rumor that Marvel has a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/2018\/09\/20\/is-there-a-captain-britain-movie-in-marvels-future-is-guy-ritchie-directing-it-will-black-knight-play-a-role\/\"><strong>Captain Britain<\/strong><\/a> film in development. But most of all, it proved that Marvel Studios will be in fine shape after the events of the final <strong>Avengers <\/strong>films.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-43695\" src=\"http:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Avengers-Infinity-War-FBOL-Right-Thanos-featured-678x340.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"678\" height=\"340\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Avengers-Infinity-War-FBOL-Right-Thanos-featured.jpg 678w, https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Avengers-Infinity-War-FBOL-Right-Thanos-featured-339x170.jpg 339w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 678px) 100vw, 678px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Speaking of those <strong>Avengers <\/strong>film, this brings us to <strong>Avengers: Infinity War<\/strong>. Marvel promised the film would be a stand alone film, but as we all knew that it would be the first of two. The film took the bold move of <strong>[SPOILER WARNING] <\/strong>killing off half its heroes. The cynical comic book fans, who have seen their favorite heroes die and comeback and then die and comeback again, know the heroes are coming back, someway, somehow. However, having the villain win caused an enormous buzz and huge curiosity for what will come next.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-44057\" src=\"http:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/New-Releases-Ant-Man-and-the-Wasp-featured-still-678x340.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"678\" height=\"340\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/New-Releases-Ant-Man-and-the-Wasp-featured-still.jpg 678w, https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/New-Releases-Ant-Man-and-the-Wasp-featured-still-339x170.jpg 339w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 678px) 100vw, 678px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Marvel Studios did have a third film out this year&#8211;<strong>Ant-Man and Wasp<\/strong>. This franchise seems to have fallen into a place of where it is a an entertaining yet forgettable film that comes out every few years. This film was a pleasant diversion, a good film, but not one that really sticks without for very long after you leave the theater. That might be a problem, because I think the &#8220;quantum realm,&#8221; which has been a recurring element in the\u00a0<strong>Ant-Man\u00a0<\/strong>films, will play a big role in the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-43582\" src=\"http:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Deadpool-2-swordplay-featured-678x340.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"678\" height=\"340\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Deadpool-2-swordplay-featured.jpg 678w, https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Deadpool-2-swordplay-featured-339x170.jpg 339w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 678px) 100vw, 678px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>2018 was also the year when many comic fans got what they had wanted for a long time. It was the year that Disney would buy Fox&#8217;s assets, returning the Fantastic Four and Marvel&#8217;s mutant characters back into the fold. It might be a year or two before we see what Marvel Studios will do with the characters, but fans have something to look forward to.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, we get to see the waning Marvel offerings from Fox. This year offers us <strong>Deadpool 2<\/strong>, and it might be the last R-Rated Marvel film.<\/p>\n<p>Obviously, it wasn&#8217;t intended to be. There was a lot of table-setting in this film, with the introduction of Cable and Domino. It would seem that the film was setting up the in-development <strong>X-Force <\/strong>movie. Whether or not we&#8217;ll ever see that film or if we do what form it will take remains to be seen. But Fox was able to get a little bit more money out of the franchise regardless.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-44938\" src=\"http:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/once-upon-a-deadpool-fred-savage-678x340.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"678\" height=\"340\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/once-upon-a-deadpool-fred-savage.jpeg 678w, https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/once-upon-a-deadpool-fred-savage-339x170.jpeg 339w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 678px) 100vw, 678px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Once Upon a Deadpool <\/strong>was released just a few weeks ago. It was a recut of <strong>Deadpool 2 <\/strong>so it could garner a PG-13 rating. Yes, Fox took Deadpool. which almost every single piece of press claimed was a character that could only be captured in an R-Rated film, released a PG-13 film with the character to get an extra $5 million into the gross.<\/p>\n<p>It is fascinating to think of the motivation behind this move. Was it just the simple cash grab it appeared to be? Was it a trial balloon for bringing the character over to Disney and their more family friendly rating? Was it because they felt that they could earn more money for Fuck Cancer by donating $1 for every ticket sold to the censored rerelease than just doing a flat donation? Or just trying to reach a younger audience that normally be allowed to see a Deadpool movie to expand its customer base?<\/p>\n<p>Whatever the reason or reasons, <strong>Once Upon a Deadpool<\/strong> was a betrayal of the anarchic spirit that separated the franchise from every other comic book movie. <strong>Deadpool <\/strong>wore its R-Rating like a badge of honor, which make putting out a PG-13 version a kind of emasculation.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-44233\" src=\"http:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Venom-featured-still-678x340.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"678\" height=\"340\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Venom-featured-still.jpg 678w, https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Venom-featured-still-339x170.jpg 339w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 678px) 100vw, 678px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Sony, the other studio who holds Marvel rights, also put out a few movies this year, one that seems to be the opposite of the other.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Venom <\/strong>looked awful from the first teaser trailer. The critics pretty much confirmed that assessment, giving the film a 28% fresh rating at Rotten Tomatoes. It looked like the Titanic heading towards the iceberg. There was no way that\u00a0<strong>Venom\u00a0<\/strong>would be a hit.<\/p>\n<p>But whoever the Dark Gods were that gave Venom his inexplicable popularity are still working for the black gooey guy, because the film opened big and kept on earning. It has earned $855 million worldwide. A film that looked dead on arrival is in a good place to start a successful franchise with. It boggles the mind.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-44131\" src=\"http:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Spider-Man-Into-The-Spider-Verse-spiders-featured-678x340.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"678\" height=\"340\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Spider-Man-Into-The-Spider-Verse-spiders-featured.jpg 678w, https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Spider-Man-Into-The-Spider-Verse-spiders-featured-339x170.jpg 339w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 678px) 100vw, 678px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>And then they put out <strong>Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse<\/strong>. The trailers looked fantastic. The buzz surrounding the film was amazing. The reviews come out and are spectacular&#8211;97% Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes.<\/p>\n<p>The final product more than led up to the hype. The film not only was the best comic book ever, not only the best animated films ever, but one of the best films ever. It is a film made with such imagination and creativity that it is an impressive feat of film making. It pushes boundaries and propels the medium of film into the future and sets an incredibly high bar for future filmmakers.\u00a0 That might sound like hyperbole, but all of that is true. If you haven&#8217;t seen it, see it. Now.<\/p>\n<p>The film opens at $35.4 million, $45 million less than <strong>Venom<\/strong>&#8216;s opening (while being the biggest December animated of all time). As of this writing, it has made around 150% of its budget back. It&#8217;s incredible word of mouth might give it enough legs to become a hit, but not one quite as large enough to surpass <strong>Venom<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>And that&#8217;s a shame. In a perfect world, <strong>Spider-Man: Into the <\/strong><strong>Spider-Verse<\/strong> would be a blockbuster and <strong>Venom <\/strong>would be barely scraping by as a hit. But <strong>Into the Spider-Verse <\/strong>will gain a victory by inspiring generations of filmmakers with its brilliance, which is nice.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-45650\" src=\"http:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/aquaman-678x340.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"678\" height=\"340\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/aquaman.jpg 678w, https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/aquaman-339x170.jpg 339w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 678px) 100vw, 678px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Last, but not least (for a change) is Warner Brothers&#8217; offerings. First, <strong>Aquaman<\/strong>. It has been a tumultuous year for Warner Brothers\/ DC Films. In the aftermath of the failure of\u00a0<strong>Justice League<\/strong>, heads started to roll, starting back in January with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/2018\/01\/05\/berg-hamada-dc-movies-president\/\">Jon Berg being replaced by Walter Hamada<\/a> as DC Film president and continuing to DC Entertainment&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/2018\/06\/06\/diane-nelson-is-leaving-dc-entertainment-warner-brothers\/\">Diane Nelson&#8217;s retirement<\/a> in June and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/2018\/06\/11\/geoff-johns-swaps-dc-chief-creative-officer-for-warners-writing-and-producing-deal\/\">Geoff Johns stepping down as DC Entertainment\u2019s Chief Creative Officer and president of DC Films<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>So, needless to say, Warners needs a win. And it got one of sorts with <strong>Aquaman<\/strong>. It wasn&#8217;t a hands down win like <strong>Wonder Woman<\/strong>, but it was big improvement over <strong>Justice League <\/strong>and <strong>Batman v. Superman<\/strong>. It was good, mindless fun, if somewhat uneven film. However, it was a good step in the right direction for the DCEU, if Warners wants to keep that going.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-45709\" src=\"http:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/State-of-the-Comic-Book-Film-Teen-Titans-Go-To-The-Movies-still-678x340.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"678\" height=\"340\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/State-of-the-Comic-Book-Film-Teen-Titans-Go-To-The-Movies-still.jpg 678w, https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/State-of-the-Comic-Book-Film-Teen-Titans-Go-To-The-Movies-still-339x170.jpg 339w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 678px) 100vw, 678px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Warners also put out another DC adaptation that might have flown under a lot of people&#8217;s radar: <strong>Teen Titans Go! To The Movies<\/strong>. The big screen adaptation of the Cartoon Network show arrived in July and was one of the best DC offerings Warners had ever put out. While the film had a lot of goofy fun for the kids, it offered a surprising amount of biting satire for the adults. While it&#8217;s $52 million worldwide grosses might make it seem like a flop, it was made for an economical $10 million budget, which would make the film a sizable hit no matter how thin you slice it.<\/p>\n<p>As for what the future of the comic book film holds, well, that&#8217;s in flux. Warners has two DC films coming next year, <strong>Shazam! <\/strong>and <strong>Joker<\/strong>, and a Vertigo adaptation,\u00a0<strong>The Kitchen<\/strong>. After that, who knows? It does have a two films scheduled for 2020&#8211;the <strong>Birds of Prey <\/strong>film in February and <strong>Wonder Woman 1984\u00a0<\/strong>in June. But it also has two other spots reserved for a DC film in 2020, one in April and one in July, which might never be filled but after that it has nothing set in stone.<\/p>\n<p>Marvel is just as mysterious. Next year&#8217;s calendar features\u00a0<strong>Captain Marvel\u00a0<\/strong>in March,\u00a0<strong>Avengers: Endgame\u00a0<\/strong>in April, and its partnership with Sony on\u00a0<strong>Spider-Man: Far From Home\u00a0<\/strong>in July. Marvel Studios has plenty of spots reserved in the next few years&#8211;2 in 2020, 3 in 2021, and 3 in 2022&#8211; but no films attached to them. You get the feeling that Disney will be attaching names to those spots sometime after <strong>Avengers: Endgame<\/strong>, but what would they be? <strong>Black Panther 2<\/strong>? <strong>Doctor Strange 2<\/strong>? Will <strong>Guardians of the Galaxy 3 <\/strong>finally get made? Will <strong>Black Widow <\/strong>be announced? Or, dare we dream, a <strong>Fantastic Four <\/strong>or <strong>X-Men <\/strong>film?<\/p>\n<p>Fox will wrap up its Marvel commitment with <strong>Dark Phoenix <\/strong>in June and <strong>New Mutants <\/strong>in August. The will also present us another installment of the <strong>Kingsman <\/strong>franchise in November. And in April, Lionsgate will bring us the <strong>Hellboy <\/strong>reboot.<\/p>\n<p>From there, I hope the studios bring a fresh outlook and diverse heroes to its future line up. If the build on what this year had to offer, there is no limit as to where they can go.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\">This year in comic book films gives hints as to where the genre will be traveling in the future.<\/div>\n<p> <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/2018\/12\/31\/state-of-the-comic-book-film-2018-excelsior\/\" title=\"STATE OF THE COMIC BOOK FILM 2018: Excelsior\">[click for more]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":45699,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_ef_editorial_meta_date_first-draft-date":"","_ef_editorial_meta_paragraph_assignment":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_needs-photo":"","_ef_editorial_meta_number_word-count":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[106,3185,84],"tags":[8019,1846,8273,1534,3936,7832,10232,9498,901,4914],"series":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-45698","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-comicsandfilm","8":"category-featured-stories","9":"category-news","10":"tag-ant-man-and-wasp","11":"tag-aquaman","12":"tag-avengers-infinity-war","13":"tag-black-panther","14":"tag-captain-marvel","15":"tag-deadpool-2","16":"tag-once-upon-a-deadpool","17":"tag-spider-man-into-the-spider-verse","18":"tag-stan-lee","19":"tag-venom"},"aioseo_notices":[],"nelio_content":{"autoShareEndMode":"never","automationSources":{"useCustomSentences":false,"customSentences":[]},"efiAlt":"","efiUrl":"","followers":[4],"highlights":[],"isAutoShareEnabled":false,"networkImageIds":[],"permalinkQueryArgs":[],"series":[],"suggestedReferences":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/45698","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=45698"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/45698\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/45699"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=45698"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=45698"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=45698"},{"taxonomy":"series","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/series?post=45698"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
