Aint no money left on the table. It's all in WB/ DC's pocket. And you ain't getting any of it so why do care so much. At this point it's pretty clear it was a success and will be very profitable for DC. Not sure what else is left to argue.
youre right about the bold :ehh: its in all the pockets of the people that got word that the movie wasnt worth the 10+ dollars and 3 hours of lost time. sometimes, i envy them :mjcry:

:russ: at its all in WB's pocket :dead: with the properties and resources they put into this film there is no reason this should have made less than AOU. and definitely no reason it should be charting on IM3 territory :mjlol:

if michael jordan, magic johnson and larry bird decided to play for the same team would you expect them to win the championship?

if they got booted in the conference finals, would you be saying "hey it's not easy getting to the conference finals"?

What kind of APPLES AND ORANGES bullshyt nonsense is this?? THIS IS NOT A COMPETITION.... the movie business is first and foremost a BUSINESS. Warner Brothers, Disney, Fox, Paramount, Sony, and ect DO NOT GIVE A fukk about who's better than who... they only care about if they are making money or not, or if it's awards season... which films they can prop up for those acclaim so those films can make money for them.

It is only fun for us fans to compare and contrast... but in real life, none of those studios ain't giving a shyt but if it made them some $$$. You sounding a bit too small minded to even make that comparison. It's one thing to say this franchise is dominate the market vs that... it's all a different thing to make up dumb shyt ass comparisons that means absolutely nothing.

Im just looking at numbers impartially and realistically. If your just looking at weekend gross then maybe it makes 10 million during just the weekend #4. But you got to look at the daily domestic totals it pulls:
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016) - Daily Box Office Results - Box Office Mojo
Even if it drops off a cliff this week and earns just over 2 million a day that means it will earn another 10- 15 million during this week alone before going into the 3rd weekend with no competition. These movies hang around for while and the numbers add up. Another 100 million domestic is a pretty safe bet. It will make another 50- 60 million domestic in the next 2 weeks alone. Weekend total drops make good headlines but the only thing that counts are total gross numbers.
They dont hear you tho..like they sat around waiting for these day by day victories lol they dont see the bigger picture..

@gluvnast

tell me this, if BVS is excused from reaching a billion because it's such a rare feat... tell me why do you think those other films WERE able to reach a billion?

give me a good reason why iron man 3 and avengers 2 could make over a billion but BVS can't.

WHAT other films... you mean the ones that have franchises of sequels that are 7 or 8 films DEEP??? And even with that idiotic logic, there's only THREE films out of what TWELVE FREAKIN' FILMS in the MCU that even crossed a billion. JUST THREE. And those are the two Avengers films and IM3. Even what many called their best Marvel film, Winter Soldier, just BARELY made 700M... and Avengers and IM3. So are you considering that a financial failure?? Shouldn't THAT by making a billion or all the other films from Marvel? You are sounding too idiotic.

there was once a widely popular, widely beloved brand that fell from grace and was a bit tarnished. the last few film outings made a lot of money but they divided the fanbase and never really transcended the genre and penetrated the mainstream consciousness like the classic films did. they could never quite measure up.

and then we got this trailer:



and then they proceeded to make 2 billion dollars

now the quality of the movie non-withstanding, they succeeded ten fold in capturing everyone's imagination and reminding us all why this stuff was so great in the first place. they captured the MAGIC of star wars in those trailers, so much so that even the people who had never even seen star wars before were curious to go see it.

have you been through target or wal-mart lately, it seems like half the items in that store have a superman or batman logo on them. the popularity and recognition of those characters are unrivaled. they are america's superheroes. perhaps if warner bros. put a movie that reminded people why that is instead of some weird off brand variation that nobody recognizes... maybe they could have made a billion dollars too.

shyt don't even go back to donner or burton... just go back to the DCAU. superman tas, batman tas, justice league, etc. is there anyone here that DOESN'T fukk with those???? would there have been ANY HARM in using those series as a DIRECT influence??? would ANYONE be complaining????

pretend a giant corporation who intentionally created plot lines to fast track the JL (a fukking email :dead: ) doesnt feel like they are in competition with another giant corporation, brehs

also pretend the suits upstairs are happy with 900 milly when they could have made 1.3 billy+ if the final product they gave to the public wasnt medicore, brehs

Wait... a character that's been around at the same time as Batman and Superman, backed by the current dominating movie franchise.... and you admitting that it is a less popular character? That Marvel is incapable to prop their oldest superhero to billion dollar status.. that's only reserve to Iron Man? Is that what you saying? Okay. Captain America is a WEAK character that doesn't deserve making big money. According to your logic.
