Can DC movies survive Superman vs Batman Underperforming?

[LurkMoar]

DC is basically going all in, using both their superstars in this one

nothing left in the chamber



Marvel has already created a large monopoly on this super hero shyt and i fear DC will be regulated to second class status if their movie is not as big a hit as anticipated



so brehs, if DC flops with their big boys... is it a wrap?

It gonna do money numbers, but if it's whack, the most painful thing will be going through each movie, and judging them harshly based off of the prior movie.

I was thinking this same thing, where DC might have to keep to the TV/animated joints if shyt gets whack...

I was mad when they announced man of steel was being done in the vein of the Nolanverse batflicks and was planned to be a one off, cause I knew it was coming the same year as Avengers and the success of Avengers would set off them making it the springboard for a DC Cinematic Universe. The sensibilities used are too off. Shoulda been a one-shot. Hopefully they make it better.

1. It's too close to Cap 3.

2. Marvel bringing out Spiderman for Cap 3 is a direct head shot at DC.

3. DC's no comic relief policy will come back to bite them in the ass.

I don't think it's going to be as big of a hit as people think it will be. Cap 3 is going to hurt this movie.

it is highly unlikely this movie will flop

whether people like it or not superman is still the most known superhero in the world

and batman is an established box office franchise draw due to nolan's triology and the general mass of the character fandom .. i feel like DC literally put him in as a failsafe because they are that confident in batman's current value

i mean if the movie sucks, word of mouth might affect week 3 and after's numbers ... but i think the opening numbers is going to be pretty crazy

 

[NOSaintsFan02]

Batman vs Superman gonna do crazy numbers. It's fukking Batman vs Superman brehs!

Financially? No way in hell this movie even gets close to bombing. But critically? It might do a little worse than expected. And in the end, I think all WB cares about is the money, so they'll stay on track whether people like it or not.

And that's a thread...

There is literally no way this movie won't suck. Warner Bros.' DC people are going to be second-guessing all their plans afterwards.

We can surmise this because Zack Snyder hasn't made anything good.

The flop i'm worried about is the Wonder Woman film....

This current chick too skinny.

they are not gonna care about the quality if the film makes bank, which it will. shyt, i'm pretty about it's quality and i'll for damn sure be there on opening weekend.

It'll make money, but it's not going to do for DC what Avengers and other properties did for Marvel, and that alone is going to lead to people questioning the wisdom of rushing into this franchise.
