Part 2/8:
According to reports from outlets like The Hollywood Reporter, "Captain America: Brave New World" opened during a particularly lackluster Oscars weekend, netting only $15 million in its third week for a domestic total of $163.5 million. This is in stark contrast to the expectations that the film would reach $400 million, a mark that now seems unattainable without an extended release period in theaters. This downturn is emblematic of a more extensive issue within the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and the broader entertainment landscape.
