It may just be another big summer movie that opens with $90 million+ and then fails to hit $250m domestic. As big as this debut is, and I don’t want to remotely discount it, it’s basically in the same sandbox as The Amazing Spider-Man 2 and Godzilla which both struggled to cross $200m domestic… [Nonetheless,] this debut, an original space opera starring a cast of mostly (aside from Vin Diesel and Bradley Cooper in vocal roles) non-stars (Chris Platt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, Lee Pace, Karen Gillan, Djimon Hounsou, John C. Reilly, Glenn Close, and Benicio Del Toro are names of varying recognition without being box office draws) proves two things. First it means that there is no summer slump. Audiences will flock to theaters if the film debuting is something they all want to see. Second, it means that Marvel can do whatever it wants now. So if they choose not to make a female-centric or minority-centric superhero film, it’s because they just don’t want to.
