AMC Mail Bag - Are Marvel Movies Better Than DC Movies? A Bret Hart Biopic.

On this installment of AMC Mail Bag (Sunday May 18th 2014) John Campea and Jon Schnepp take the following viewer emails:

Jasemine Jackson writes: Hey there sons and daughters of AMC! Love the show; the only place I go for my movie news! I would like to ask something along the lines about AMC rather than films. We fans are very vocal about our opinions and concerns when it comes to the movies we watch (especially within the geek community), and I was wondering if you all ever thought of bringing in a fan to talk with you all on your live broadcastings.

Bryan Bruner writes: Hello amc, I've noticed that people don't seem to enjoy the DC movies quite as much. Personally I loved the dark knight trilogy. And the man of steel, their movies are a lot more darker and serious, while MARVEL has a little to much comedy. I just wanted to know why do you think people enjoy MARVEL movies more than DC?

Ben Zepp writes: I was wondering why Marvel did not shoot and release Ant Man before Age on Ultron and use part of Ant Man as a tool to show the more traditional well known origin of Ultron that Hank Pym creates. Thank you very much for your time.

jordan curet writes: Hey everyone at AMCMovietalk just wanted to say you guys rock first off. I'm a huge fan of the show and I've been watch for since the beginning of this year, So my question is what do you guys think of the new movie coming out The Hundred Foot Journey. I love cooking movies and this one looks really awesome. Just wondering, thanks for the great show and keep bringing the filthy!

Joe Meade writes: You truly are the best damn movie news show on the internet! Been watching since the beginning! My question is if you've heard anything about a Bret Hart biopic based off his book and his documentaries? He was my hero growing up and I believe his story would make a great movie. Also would you want this to happen?

Holly writes: I had a question regarding movie review embargoes. The Fault in Our Stars has been giving advanced screenings to critics and fans the last couple weeks, so I went online, figuring I could read a few reviews, only to discover that reviews had been embargoed until the day of the movie's release. I know plenty of movies place embargo dates on reviews, but still allow reviews to be released a couple weeks ahead of the movie to generate positive buzz. So my question is: if a studio decides to embargo reviews until just a few days before / the day of the movie's release, is that an indicator of the movie's quality? (i.e., does that mean the studio thinks the movie isn't going to be well received and wants to minimize the damage done by negative reviews coming out too early?).
