Disagree. I thought Batman v Superman was visually very good. The main problem with that movie was the writing.

What are you disagreeing with me on? Snyder didn't write BvS. He had a vision and he put it on screen and you just said it looked great, so he did his job. If your issue is with the script then your issue is with Goyer and Terrio

Spider-Man featuring Iron Man made the same amount at the box office as BvS, that must have been a failure too :manny:

Spiderman and Iron Man are not bigger characters than Batman and Superman. BvS was supposed to make more money so you actually proved that BvS was a failure. Not to mention BvS was a critical failure.

Nice try though:mjlol:

You just proved you don't know shyt about shyt. Spider-Man as a character/IP produces just as much if not more revenue each year as Batman does. I hate that I have to correct you like this. :to:

I'm watching Batman V. Superman now. Einsenberg should've been the Riddler, seriously.
Which oddly enough, was who he thought he was auditioning for.

Honestly, the universe was built poorly and yes WB did interfere, but that movie Snyder wanted to make doesnt sound any better, considering the universe around it.

Dark Knight made more money than any Spiderman film. We're not talking about toy sales.

DC's two most iconic characters should beat a Spiderman movie. Had the movie not been trash it would have.

A Batman/Superman should beat every MCU movie, including Spider-Man, by a wide margin. We're talking about two of the most recognizable super heroes in history.

Not that Spider-Man is a slouch in that department....but Spider-Man/Ironman is not remotely on the same level as Batman/Superman. I mean, it is now, through sheer force of will on Marvel's part. But in general, through out history? Hell no. Marvel started the MCU with Ironman because they didn't have access to their more popular characters.

SPIDER-MAN Is World's Most Profitable Superhero (And It's Not Even Close)

Spider-Man has been on that tier for a very long time.

This was an article back in 2014 after Sony fukked up a few movies and before MCU was even involved. Nothing to do with Marvel Studios. Spider-Man is just THAT big and has been for a long long time.

Do I need to remind people that a Spider-Man movie in 2002 opened to $114M opening weekend. That was an unthinkable number.

Fact is Spider-Man and Iron Man made the same amount as Batman and Superman and Spider-Man is on that level and Iron Man already had a movie do well over a billion at that point.

There ain't been a Batman movie since the Nolan trilogy. There ain't been a Superman movie since 2013.

Spider-Man had the Raimi trilogy....then the Marc Webb films back to back. Of course the licensing is generating more money than Batman/Superman, the article was written the same year "The Amazing Spider-Man 2" did $700 mill.

So this is more about WB dropping the ball with their characters, than Spider-Man legitimately being more popular. I mean, "GOTG Vol. 2" did roughly the same as "Batman V Superman", for Christ sake.

That's not how these numbers work and pay attention to that last line. It says when MCU acquires the rights the character should be even more profitable than it is now (meaning back in 2014).

Well here's a little history. The Raimi trilogy did similar numbers to Spider-Man Homecoming years ago. Factoring in inflation and Marvel adding in another top super hero with Iron Man Spider-Man Homecoming should have easily cleared a billion at the box office. It didn't.

Also, you bring up Guardians of the Galaxy, Marvel spent how much marketing those characters over the past 5 years? Not shocking, you didn't bring up that Aquaman just did $1.1 billion for DC.

See this goes both ways which was my point. How the hell did Aquaman make that much more money than a Spider-Man/Iron Man team up.

This is why I try not to pick any sides here because it goes both ways. :manny:

Oh so now Snyder didn’t care for an extended universe? :mjlol:

Stans say the darndest things
He never did. There's interviews of him saying MOS was it's own thing. It wasn't until Avengers came out that suddenly Batman could exist in the same world

Dark Knight made more money than any Spiderman film. We're not talking about toy sales.

Adjusted, Spider-Man has 3 movies on the same level as TDK

When you add in merch sales, Spider-Man dwarfs Batman and Superman. And it's not for a lack of trying. DC pushes Batman so hard they forget they have other characters
