Also, pic related.

At this point, reaching 1 billion worldwide doesn't seem likely.

Well it mentions that right in the article so yeah.

>marvel shills so assblasted BvS opened so well that they are pulling out the China card

Not even starwars did well in China lmao
>>
Dawn of Justice is keeping up with the trend that sees Hollywood live-action blockbusters underperforming in the territory after failing to strike a chord with China’s increasingly picky mainstream audience: Avengers: Age of Ultron couldn’t live up to its lofty expectations, despite raking in $240 million for Disney; Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation ($135.6 million) misfired even though it was backed by Alibaba; and Spectre ($83.5 million) and Star Wars: The Force Awakens ($125.4 million) both crashed and burned due to poor word of mouth following strong fan-fueled opening weekends.

Batman v Superman will meet a fate similar to the latter two films, and just as The Force Awakens failed to lay important groundwork for Disney’s future Star Wars installments, Batman v Superman’s tepid reception this weekend in both North America and China means that Warner Bros.’ plans to establish an enduring cinematic comic book universe that could rival Disney’s Marvel is off to a sputtering start.
>>
The Chinese audience is the go to boogeyman argument for or against a movie's success. Just accept it Marvel shills. End it all before Justice League because that kino will make 2 bil easily.

I know, right? It's baffling.

>>67557629
I think because Superman's as Capitalist as it gets.

Fucking hell.....lmfao

wew lad, its China. Not North Korea.
>>
>>67558006
As a product or franchise, yes.
As a character, no. Shit, his cape is (usually) his blanket and his costume is a hand me down even in MoS.

Explain how, as a character, Superman is capitalist.
>>
>>67556768
Superman, yes

But they don't care about Batman, and even less about Wonder Woman
>>
>>67558587
Superman is essentially Liberal capitalist politics reified, he spends his time tackling the sympthoms of the problems that surface from the economic structure to help keep things organized and peaceful so as the Capitalists can continue to operate.

Superman would fly into a factory when it is about to explode to rescue the workers, he would not stop by well before the explosion to challenge the factory owner's cheap profit saving safety structures that led to the explosion.
>>
Wonder how much the dropoff will be. It's not looking good.

>>67558760
Whilst I kinda see your point, it's a stretch. Trying to simply help people doesn't imply supporting the status quo. Indeed, Superman often feels grief at the way we as a species act, refusing to step in for fear of turning to a tyrant. The only way your idea of Superman tackling the system plays out is in him assuming control. Arguably, Superman forces himself to be apolitical to such an extent that he ends up unable to act even when, say, Luthor becomes president.
tldr? Don't buy it, r u projecting maybe?

nobody in their right mind would read this thread and believe people were saying Superman himself is a capitalist
you are either an idiot or this is bait

If there's chinks or china in the movie, they'll see it.
That's why Transformers 4 has 200 million in dimestic box office, but 800 million foreign.
It's mostly chinks getting their underwear wet because the third act happens in China.
Plus they love mechas.

>>67556584
Chinks wobt see a movie that doesn't have chinks or take place in China at some point
>>
>>67558836

normal 60% like 99% of movies that come out
>>
>>67560992
MoS dropped 64% on the second weekend
BvS is dropping even more
And MoS wasn't released simutaneously in the entire world
>>
>>67561102
