The Marvels is officially the lowest-grossing MCU movie of all time, finishing its theatrical run with a wordlwide box office gross of around $205 million. That puts it roughly on par with DC’s Birds of Prey, which was considered a bomb despite making back more than twice its budget.

Released back in November, The Marvels got off to a tough start and never recovered despite somewhat more positive word-of-mouth than Ant-Man & the Wasp: Quantumania. We gave The Marvels an 8 in our review, calling it “funny and heartfelt.”

Nevertheless, it was dragged down by a tough year overall for Marvel, which struggled to build momentum outside of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. The MCU wasn’t helped by questions about its overall direction amid the SAG-AFTRA strike and the Jonathan Majors trial, its struggles being a big reason that Disney failed to have a billion dollar move in 2023.

The Marvels wound up pulling in roughly $84.5 in the domestric box office, putting it well below The Incredible Hulk’s $134.8 million domestic gross way back in 2008. Its overall budget including marketing and distibution was around $270 million.

Various experts have offered suggestions on how the MCU can regain it Endgame-level hype, including breakout star Iman Vellani. Disney CEO Bob Iger suggested that the studio’s movies underperformed due to a lack of executives.

With 2024 now in full swing, the MCU will try and set a new course now that Majors has been fired. Its first test will be the release of Marvel’s Echo, which is slated to arrive next week. For more, check out every release date we know about for upcoming Marvel movies and shows.

The crime of assaulting a police officer was a public servant and appealed. Appellant: After giving way, he acted naturally. Attorney General: Obviously wanted to trip the police

2019 年 12 月 21 日 尖沙咀海港城「和你Shop」警民衝突前年 12 月 21 日尖沙咀海港城「和你Shop」示威期間,時任政府助理文書主任馮耀暉被指伸腳絆倒警員,早前經審訊後被裁定襲警罪成,判囚 2 個月。馮不服定罪上訴,今(8 日)於高等法院由法官張慧玲審理。上訴方爭議事件純屬意外,被告的腳部動作,是為了避過途人及警長,平衡身體而作出的自然反應;律政司一方則指,當時大批警員急步走至,被告卻往警方人群靠近且提高腳,明顯有意圖絆倒警員。法官押後案件,擇日裁決,期間馮獲准繼續保釋。 28歲的上訴人馮耀暉,案發時為政府助理文書主任,被控一項襲警罪,指他於前年 12 月 21 日在尖沙嘴海洋中心 2337 號舖外襲警員曾雋賢。他早前經審訊後,被裁判官鄭念慈裁定襲警罪成,指他以相對較難察覺的動作,絆倒正急步行的警員,行為屬偷襲,判囚 2 個月。 上訴方:事件屬意外 上訴方陳詞時表示,其一方不再爭議馮行為有否敵意(hostile intent),但雙方爭議事件是否純屬意外,而上訴方認為,馮當日舉動,是日常生活常見的事。 上訴方播放閉路電視片段,指案發商場人流多,馮與其他途人見有一班警員走至,就一同「睇熱鬧」,其時馮雙腳不是「釘死係地下」,他亦先後稍移身體,讓位予兩名途人及一名警察群前排的警長經過。如馮故意襲警,他當時已可絆倒該名距離與他較近的警長,而不是距離較遠的警員。 律政司:有意絆倒 律政司一方則指,馮當時看見大批警員走至,反而身體往警員靠近,其後右腳明顯伸出並向上遞,導致警員失去平衡。其一方觀點是,馮有意絆倒警察,而最先沒有絆倒該警長,不等於今次絆倒曾警是意外,反而是馮目標警察群隊內任何一個人。 上訴方表示,上述說法能否成為本案唯一推論成疑,重申被告腳部動作,是讓路後平衡身體自然而連續的動作。 期間法官指出,曾警作供時指,「被告伸直隻腳,提高到個位上五寸、下五寸」,質疑馮若非故意,何以提至該高度。上訴方重申上述答案。法官聽取雙方陳詞後押後案件,待訂日子裁決。 案件編號:HCMA306/2020 襲警和你shop
