With the presumption it isn’t necessary, do you think watching the D+ series is helpful before seeing the film? I think we watched one or two episodes maybe two years ago but never finished it.

Of course it’s helpful but without getting into spoilers all you really need to know is Sam is Captain America now and Torres ( Danny Ramirez) is his sidekick

Helpful, maybe, but not required. They tell enough within the movie that anything "missed" from the D+ show is quickly understood for the most part.
Basically if you just go straight from End Game to Brave New World you won't really be lost.

And yet you believe something that has no shred of proof to back it up.
Also if you’re so sure the reported budget is wrong then why only $350M? If we’re making up numbers why not $500M or $600M making it the most expensive movie on the planet. I mean if you’re going to believe a made up number anyways why not just go for the top.
And on that note why does Disney even care if the “real” number is public or not if it really is $350M+, I mean it’s not like they haven’t had huge budget movies that have released over the last 20+ years that have cost more than that. In fact they had quite a few. So it makes even less sense when you consider that and that in the end no one really cares all that much in the long run anyways.

You predicted Sonic 3 would beat Mufasa at the box office and you blew that one big time so maybe you should stay out of making guesses on this.

And who is Jeff Snyder and what is his connection to the actual production? As far as I’m aware he is not a reporter, not a Hollywood insider, not any connection to Disney or Marvel, has never broken any other story about budgets before. So why should we believe him over actual trades that report on this stuff all the time. He is a failed no name actor that has like 3 credits to his name and a Podcast. So forgive me if I don’t believe a word he says, especially when it comes to a movie budget that he would have no knowledge of since he wasn’t involved with it to begin with.

What's this? Oh my goodness! It says it's closer to 300 million in this article.
Maybe actually look closer at the sources you are quoting before you relying on it as some proof.

It says reshoots AND marketing, marketing typically costs about half of what the film cost to produce. That would put production costs at $200 million, fairly close to the stated $180 million budget.Captain America: Brave New World's Actual Budget Could Be Closer To $300 Million After Reshoots - IMDb

Yes… it has been pointed out that the over reported the budget was for films like Doctor Strange and The Marvels was actually equal to marketing + budget

SUNDAY AM: Marvel Studios‘ Captain America: Brave New World came in slightly better on Saturday with $27.5M from what we saw last night; this is from the extra ticket sales that roll into Comscore overnight. Rivals firmly believe that we have the first $100M opener on hand for 2025’s domestic B.O., and Disney believes that as well. Global opening is at $192.4M which is roughly $2M higher than where Nancy and I spotted it.SATURDAY PM: Disney/Marvel Studio’s Captain America: Brave New World posted a solid estimated Saturday of $27M, -33% off Friday/previews $40M.

Domestic take puts it as the 10th highest MCU film - not bad
We saw it Friday and enjoyed it - not top tier MCU but above average. Good amount of applause at the end and a few big cheer moments from the audience in my showing.
Think the best parts were scenes with Mackie and Ford together

Not even close to 10th highest, is it?

Maybe it’s more about exceeding expectations? That’s a good point of comparison though. Cap 4 coming in lower than Ant 3 isn’t a great sign. But more recently Mufasa started slow but just kept so that could be the pattern. We’ll see what happens.

My theater had some occasional groans and most people stayed for the pointless post credit scene. There was some laughter at Agent Bat-Seraph's Yoda fight scene. Everyone walked out silent.
However, Ford and Mackie worked well together. They were fun to watch.

And you started digging and dancing all over the grave of Mufasa when it started low, and see how that turned out. So lets not start digging a grave and dancing on it just yet, its going to be interesting ride to see where this one ends up.
And I like how people say "only getting x amount", when almost every other movie would kill for those numbers. The unrealistic expectations for Disney movies to get $1B+ have to stop.
