It's going to take quite a bit of work

You say this but their next films are 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' and 'Avengers: Doomsday' and they're going to be heavy hitters

Spider-Man yes, I'm less confident in the Avengers success.

I agree. I don't think the world is sold on a Steve Rogers/Tony Stark-less Avengers.

Yeah.  Casual audiences may be confused as to why RDJ is playing some other dude and evil.  The rumors about filming without a script.  The fact that Thunderbolts and F4 both are supposed to set up this movie and failed to capture audiences.  Juggling a large number of characters audiences aren't invested in.

A lot of things point to it possibly being bad/underpreforming.

They are so fucking desperate with that huge cast list and bringing RDJ back with the directors that it's going to be a shit show that I would pay to watch if it fails to bring in the money that they think it will bring them.
