what the asterisk was for<\/u><\/a>. But now that I\u2019ve seen the movie and I know why it\u2019s there, I feel pretty stupid.<\/p>\nBecause honestly, the asterisk is like a throwaway gag. It\u2019s a goof. At the end of the film, we learn just why the Thunderbolts*<\/em> are called The New Avengers (In fact, throughout the film, we actually learn why they\u2019re called the Thunderbolts, which I think is a lot more interesting), and it’s not a reason that I should have stayed home and waited.<\/p>\nIn truth, I mostly used the revealing of that asterisk as a reason not to feel bad about missing the movie opening weekend. Because I did intend to see Thunderbolts*<\/em> in theaters, but the thing is, when I miss a movie on that first weekend, the chances of me seeing it are low to nil. However, I really want to kick myself since the asterisk thing wasn\u2019t a big thing at all, and I skipped out on seeing the movie in its second weekend (Probably when it needed viewership the most!), all because I was mad that the asterisk was revealed.<\/p>\nWell, I can tell you that the meaning of the asterisk is cute, but it\u2019s not a game-changer. So, that was another bungle on my part. Honestly, by not seeing Thunderbolts* <\/em>in theaters and waiting for it to come home, I think we sent the wrong message to Disney.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission.
