My bad, yeah I hear that I thought you was implying Snyder was better. I guess we will have to agree to disagree. Those movies were atrocious let’s be grateful for what Gunn is about to give us.
Just a shame this so called fondness for Synders movies didn’t translate to the box office. Then again Rebel Moon was the biggest film of 2023 and if it was in movie theatres it would have outcrossed Barbie hmmm so maybe…Let's put this to rest.
Man Of Steel Gets An A- CinemaScore

"Back when Man Of Steel was getting blasted by many critics, Comicbook.com predicted that the movie would play much better with audiences, and we were right. Man Of Steel has received an A- from viewers on CinemaScore, which is an excellent rating. While critics seemed to harp on the fact that it wasn't the Richard Donner version of Superman that they fondly remembered, the general public seemed to be much more accepting of director Zack Snyder's new take on the Man Of Steel. Many critics had also complained that Man Of Steel had too much action, but audiences tend to actually like lots of action in their, you know, action movies. "
Not moving anything I am saying the box office was a reflection of audiences overall interest. If the audience like something they will repeatedly go and see it especially with good word of mouth. I feel like we are just going round and round repeating the same thing. These movies were not generally loved no matter how many polls you present. Not a flop but based on what its competitor was doing at the time these movies underperformed.Moving goalposts... I thought we were discussing audiences?
Also, it was the 4th highest grossing movie of 2013. Far from a "flop"
Nah this was Synder's fault he could've went with Brainiac/Supergirl sequel to MOS but he opened his dumb fukking mouth to WB and said how about lets add FRANK Miller old Batman without any of the set-up for it to work.Revisionist history. They gave Snyder the keys to their "universe" and they wanted him to get right to 'Batman v. Superman' instead of leading with origin stories for the characters. He had plans for 'Man of Steel 2' but the execs at the time, who have since been fired long ago, wanted to fast-track the universe because of how much money Marvel was now making on team ups.
You can't post about this topic like I'm new to it and I don't know what happened

Negged, there hasn't been a comic book movie that's come close to the timelessness of TDK.
Nah David Goyer was interviewed last year about this very thing.
“I know the pressure we were getting from Warner Bros., which was, ‘We need our MCU! We need our MCU!’ And I was like let’s not run before we walk. The other thing that was difficult at the time was there was this revolving door of executives at Warner Bros. and DC. Every 18 months someone new would come in. We were just getting whiplash. Every new person was like, ‘We’re going to go bigger!'”
David Goyer Shares WB's "Crazy" Plan to Build Their Own Cinematic Universe - "This Is Not How You Build a House" — GeekTyrant
When Marvel Studios was at the height of their building their Marvel Cinematic Universe, Warner Bros. was looking to play catch-up real fast with their DC properties. They wanted to build their own superhero cinematic universe and they wanted to do it fast. That universe launched with Zack Snyde

From Synder's own dumb fukking mouth:
Here's what you keep skipping over on purpose... Synder did one thing he wanted to do... MOS... it did better than every Marvel movie
