$10 billion, Box Office, Captain America: Civil War, Marvel Cinematic Universe, Question of the Week
First, the answer to the last Question of the Week from 13 November 2016: which of the five stars mentioned – John Goodman, Sandra Bullock, Bradley Cooper, Ryan Gosling, Kristen Wiig – didn’t appear in one of the following movies: Infamous (2006); Crazy, Stupid, Love. (2011); Lullaby (2014); Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close (2011); and The Midnight Meat Train (2008)?
The answer is Kristen Wiig, and she didn’t appear in Lullaby (2014).
This week’s Question of the Week is connected to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This year, the release of Captain America: Civil War saw Marvel pass the $10 billion mark in box office returns. It’s an amazing feat – based on just thirteen movies – and Doctor Strange‘s returns have already passed the $500,000 mark, so there’s no sign of their success slowing down, or being curtailed, any time soon. With that in mind, this week’s Question of the Week is:
Could another studio ever achieve the same level of success as Marvel is currently enjoying?
NOTE: This will be the last Question of the Week for the foreseeable future. It’s making way for the return of Poster of the Week.
