If this bombs then that's it. DC's name will be poisoned for the next 20 at least. All your hopes now rest on Harley Quinn, how do you feel about this /co/?

This. I hope a movie comes out that bombs so hard it makes fan4tastic look like a masterpiece and everyone loses their jobs over it. I want it to be so bad no one ever touches the well again for at least my lifetime. I don't care which side it's on. I just want them to stop.

>Hopefully it does so bad it kills Carol's movie.
That's not going to happen, but I foresee two possible outcomes.
1. They follow the Iron-Man plan and distill and focus Carol into being a good character. All of her baggage from the comics is lost and forgotten, and is remade a new, more interesting character.
2. They go full KSD with her and it becomes the most insufferable Marvel movie ever made, coupled with the howling of tumblr on the wind making /co/ utterly unbearable for months on end.

You laugh, but if they appeal hard to the SJW it might be the only one to get critical acclaim. Even if it sucks harder than the rest of the DC films. They are already shielding Gadot from criticism in reviews.

look everyone with a brain knew BvS was not going to be a hit with critics, especially when everyone wants DC films to be exactly like Marvel films. but it will absolutely make bank despite the reviews. This isn't the Fantastic Four, it's Superman and Batman. DOA isn't happening when it's already projected to be the second largest Easter weekend opening.
>>
>>81008135
Suicide Squad has been good ever since it became New Suicide Squad. Basically Harley is being written well by everyone not named Jimmy Palmiotti/Amanda Connor.
>>
>>81008249
It's the same continuity and mostly the same creators just getting jumbled around. All they're doing is bringing back some old elements like they've done before in things like Zero Hour. It's not really a big deal besides seeing how the biweekly sales do and hoping the talent falls on books that you might want to read.

I pray to god that it bombs, because if it does we might finally see the end of Bat-Saturation in all forms of media.

There's so much more that could be done with all the DC Universe properties, but everything has to be anchored to the Bat. I am so fucking sick of him always having a cartoon, or a video game, or a movie. Give us a fucking Plastic Man cartoon or something for god's sake.

I like how casual it is with the character powers.
They aren't really making a huge deal that a guy that can manifest fire, a crocodile-man hybrid, and an ancient evil spirit possessed witch are all on a team with a guy that throws exploding boomerangs.
So in that aspect, I hope both Marvel and DC stop getting hung up on power explanations and just let the characters exist in the world without having to give a lengthy introduction to them. Sometimes it's fine to just bring in a guy to shoot fire from his eyeballs. You don't need to waste time explaining where he got his powers from.

I just dont understand why Superman is fairly new but Batman has been working for decades in this universe and they have all these Metas captured already for Suicide Squad.

Like start at the beginning for the Heroes.
>>

I've seen the full poster, but the way OP cropped it seems to be the way the advertising for this film has been. I mean I don't even think I heard Boomer's name in the trailer, and I know I didn't hear him talk. It's really petty but it just doesn't seem like the Suicide Squad I loved is being adapted here so I don't think I'll see it.

Never mind that. The review embargo has only been down for 9 hours. It hasn't even been a week, let alone a day. Major blockbusters like BvS usually have hundreds of reviews, and we've barely gotten, what, 30?

And aside from that, most of these reviews have been utterly worthless. I've been reading them since this afternoon, and the thing I notice most often is that these people seem to have gone in expecting it to be just like Marvel. If these so-called professionals can't manage to remain objective and judge a film without comparing it to something that's almost entirely different, than just what good is their word anyway?

Yeah, they sure showed Marvel by withholding all of those megabucks with Fant4stic.
>>
>>81012293
Its about 50 and if this movies usual get 300 at least that like 5-10%.
Never mind co said critics might not like it and all I've been seeing is ppl saying they are getting more tickets for 2nd and 3rd showings.
Critics shouldn't be the end all. The Thing wasn't well reviewed, ppl love the shit out of that movie me included.
Signs was well liked by critics and ppl were hailing the director as the next big thing. Look how that turned out.

Ppl went this movie with a clear bias whether for "not like muh marvel" or "Zack sucks". But let /co/ get swepted up in TV bullshit

>>81012368
and just watch, five or so years there will be another fant4stic

Fox didn't make the best marvel movie. Ryan Reynolds did. Well, one of the best.
If you want proof of that just look at the fact that what Fox took away from it's success it that R rated Superhero movies are what people want.
They missed the point entirely.

It won't be good either, but it will make money too.

Money is the only criteria that matters.

You better hope these make money no matter how bad they are because you have less of a chance of seeing better capeshit from DC if they decide to not make it.
