Is WB even going to care about the critics when it's making this kind of money?
>>67648436

With Zack Snyder comes controversy
But with controversy comes attention
And attention leads to free publicity
Idk I'm just rambling
>$400 million budget
yes

Poll on the movie.
You can't stop Snyder the outsider!
why the fuck is Snyder so controversial?
I can't even pretend to understand.
it hasn't hit 1billion yet but - LET'S GET THE SHIT EARLY STARTED.. WE DID IT LADS

>Marvel
>>67648436
>globally
it won't even hit 1b
>>67648436
>Is WB even going to care about the critics when it's making this kind of money?
Yes, given that they're only about half way to approximately breaking even.
>>67648573
he's a bad director who appears incompetent at basic things yet gets given these giant franchises to work with
hes like a shit version of michael bay
>>67648463
I only paid to see the movie because of the Critics piss poor ratings. Otherwise I wouldn't have bothered, was simply intrigued into the cause of the panning
Either way it was a decent-good movie. More interesting than any Marvel movies to date although littered with flaws
>>67648548
The director's cut of the film will be absolute capekinography
Rumoured scenes:
>Extended North Africa opening segment, with Lois meeting Jimmy and being escorted to the warlord's compound by a group of operators on horseback.
>Another nightmare sequence where Bruce Wayne finds Robin's dead body while Wayne Manor burns to the ground, with the Joker's laugh echoing in the hallways.
>Another scene of Diana at a charity auction.
>Another few scenes of Bruce being depressed.
>Clark Kent interviewing inmates at Blackgate Penitentiary about Batman.
>Clark and Lois pillow talk.
>Superman having a nightmare about Metropolis' destruction.
>Superman having a vision of General Zod showing up in the Arctic to torment him.
>Extended Batmobile chase.
>Extended Batman VS. Superman including Batman's full speech.
>Extended Trinity VS. Doomsday with more violence.
>Extended epilogue with the funerals.
>The Communion scene.
>Some other scenes of Lex being villainous in private.
>>67648463
You're right
You get tasteless plebs like >>67648630 pretending they understand the art of cinema praising it
>>67648548
the future will tell us for BvS but for Man of Steel he made some really great trailer. For BvS too by the way, but I've learned my lesson with MoS
>>67648573
His movies don't follow the accepted formula of Marvel, i.e. quips and humor
>>67648621
>bad director
explain, because BvS, MoS, Dawn of the Dead, and Watchmen were pretty good to great.
>>67648463
>And attention leads to free publicity
yeah, probably a lot of people that wouldn't have gone to see it, after reading the rotten score thought "come on, how bad could it be?", and then bought a ticket
>>67648436
But there are hardly any jokes in this movie. FUCK YOUR SHIT, YOU BIG TURD BLOSSOM!
word of mouth is going to carry this movie passed 1 billion with no problem.
>>67648573
Snyder= Video Games = "entertainment" sensibility = autism.
>>67648737
BvS was bad. Ang Lee Hulk Bad.
MoS is about as good as Thor.
Watchmen was cape kino. That I agree
>>67648765
>yeah, probably a lot of people that wouldn't have gone to see it, after reading the rotten score thought "come on, how bad could it be?", and then bought a ticket
And then thought, "gee, it wasn't great, but I don't see what all the fuss was about. Sounds like critics have an agenda."

Ang Lee's Hulk was patrician. His Sense and Sensibility was shit though.
>>67648662
>>Extended Batman VS. Superman including Batman's full speech.
Why did they have to cut scenes from the main event of the movie in order to save time?

>Watchmen was cape kino.
Watchmen was a superficial reconstruction of a great comic by a pea brain director who only gets visuals that look neat.
Fuck. He didn't even get what made Miller's DKR tick and just lifted a couple scenes and loose ideas from it.
>>67648436
LMAO MARVEL CONTINUES TO GET BTFO SUCK A DICK MARVELFAGS

>ywn have a Superman movie with Moby Dick imagery with Lex as Ahab and Superman as the whale.
/tv/ is never right I swear, and I was here when everybody was losing their shit over 2 spanish reviews just after the embargo lifted.
>Variety comes out with an article saying that WB execs need BvS to make at least a billion dollars in order for it to not be a complete disaster
>Manchild fanboys who pretend to like shitty movies in order to stick it to a rival picture book manufacturer suddenly declare a potential $1B gross as a complete and unprecedented triumph
>>67651198
spoken like a true marvelcuck
>>67651012
Only autistic retards believed that a movie with Batman in the tittle would flop.
>>67648436
I haven't seen this and won't in the theaters but why would anyone who watches capeshit trust critics?
Avengers 2 and Thor 2 are still marked fresh on Rotten Tomatoes.
as a marvelfan I'll be impressed only when it surpasses Amazing Spiderman 2
It needs to make 1 bill to break even and 2 bill for a satisfactory profit. It's still a failure.
>>67650988
>>ywn have a Superman movie with Moby Dick imagery with Lex as Ahab and Superman as the whale.surprise! it's bvs and superman is both lex's and batman's moby dick
>>67648817
>Ang Lee Hulk
>bad
It does have a lot of parallels with BvS though, in that it's a comic book movie where the director tried to include a bunch of serious themes and subtext and then got undeservedly shat on for it by pleb critics
>>67651872
>2 bill for a satisfactory profit
>source: your ass
>>67650869
400 million, it's 250 million plus 150 of marketing.
>Batman, I'm Jesus.
What did Cavill mean by that?
>>67650988
you already have one pleb
>Okay, get the PS3 to render the CGI
What did Snyder mean by this?
>>67652042
This.
>>67651872
>1 bill to break even
Are you high? Budget was 250 mil including advertising. And even if you wanna throw an extra 50 mil for whatever reason they already made 500 mil. The movie is a success no matter how mad that makes you.
>>67652608
advertising usually isn't included in budgets. its budget with advertising is around 400 million. since box office is split 50/50 between the studio and the theaters they would need 800 million to break even.
>>67652608
It needs 800 million to prove that it was a good investment, also the budget was 400 million if you take into count advertisment.
Normally these movies need to make at least twice it's budget to consider them worth it.
I mean, you wouldn't buy a Ferrari for 1 million, and then sell it for $1.001.000, right?
It's too much effort just to get a thousand dollars.
>Is WB even going to care about the critics when it's making this kind of money?
Fuck no. The only people who care about the "quality" of capeshit are losers who will buy tickets no matter what.
>>67652608
>The movie is a success
you can call a jar of piss granny's peach tea ;)
>>67652678
>>67652693
These are both true
This movie had the same budget as avengers, it should break at least 1b for Warner Bros to feel safe.
>it needs 2 billions to break even
or
>it needs 200 millions to break even
I'm confused
>>67648436
depends in how much it gross. If it's transformers tier, they simply won't care
the problem is with future movies
they've already played the batman v superman card after two fucking movies
superman has almost no where to go as a character
after this disaster of a movie, who the fuck is gonna see "DC Comics" and watch a movie about that faggot aquaman? or wonder woman movie when the actress can barely speak english?
>>67648662
>Robin's dead body
So who did they cast as Robin then?
>>67650882
if snyder did a adaption of TDK Returns it wouldve been much better than what we got
>>67648436
That's really unfortunate.
>>67653028
Snyder's son. I remember reading an article about it. Gimme a minute and I'll find it.
>>67653028
idk but some pictures from Leto's Joker and Robins damaged suite hints that we're going to see a Batman Beyond style Joker
>>67652952
400m+ is the budget
But they'll have to break 800m to break even.
And by the money spent on this, they should *at least* break 1b, if they want a chance to build the dcu. Avengers had the same budget and bith gross 2b+.
I didnt even see Avengers 2, because I thought it looked like a shitty mess, but I guess people loved it.
>>67648817
>BvS was bad. Ang Lee Hulk Bad.
The fuck, man? This is Bizarro's World. Both movies are great.
>>67648662
>Clark and Lois pillow talk.
This gone be good
It's fucking batman vs superman big blockbuster movie, of course I'm gong to see it.
Critics have nothing to do with it.
Dirsum tatsnurp git it thru ya hoe
Piss to ya mutha
Yes
Although they'll make money on this, their real golden goose was to be the Justice League movie (much like how the Avengers movies are Marvel's)
After the reception BvS got, a lot of people aren't going to really care about the future movies and as a result, they won't make as much as they had hoped.
People seem to keep forgetting why shitty movies can still make money. You pay BEFORE you enter the cinema, not after
>>67655091
Oh, surely you don't mean all those people who saw it, and said, "piss on those Critics, who the fuck are they anyway. Why, they gave the force awakens and Ultron a better grade, and star trek into darkness, all of which was shit. But this is some dreadful mess of a film? Fuck those critics."
You mean those people who bought tickets to the tune of 194 million dollars, those people? Those people who since Monday added 30 million dollars, Those people? You know Critics are getting a lot of flak for hating on this gem, right?
>>67651872
>what is merchandise?
>what are crossover promotions?
>>67648436
BvS cost 400 million, if marketing was included. Given that foriegn markets have weaker currencies and theaters cut to the film tickets sold, BvS would need at least 1 billion just to make even. These sort of numbers BvS is generating is pathetic. They already released their film all around the world. There's no other markets, yet BvS won't even reach a billion at this point. It's a failure. It's over. Let Marvel take over, DC can't make films.
>>67655810
good point
the budget should be well over 400M+ then
>>67648436
Who gives a shit?
If it hits 2bil we'll talk
