>Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justicetakes a massive tumble compared to its opening day last weekend with an estimated$15.35 millionFriday. That's an 81% drop from its opening day last Friday, which did include $27.7 million from Thursday previews, but even excluding those numbers you're looking at a 71.5% drop. Rival studios peg the film's second weekend dropping as much as 70%, resulting in a three day weekend around $50 million

Poor Ben

It's already a success.

Why should we believe them?
1 billion dream is dead, China numbers are even worse, 85% drop there. Might not even reach 900 even

DC BREAKING RECORDS LEFT AND RIGHT
10 TWITTER USERS CANT BE WRONG, BVS IS A KINO MASTERPIECE
>>67774285
I mean, of course rival studios will project that they'll fail. You think a rival studio will say "Oh, they might do decent". I'm not saying it'll do great, but I recall a similar article just before the movie was released saying that rival studios projected that it would flop opening weekend.
God dammit I hate these "Click verify once all images of ___ are gone" captchas, they're terrible.
>>67774271
They can estimate all they want, they won't change the outcome. Rival studios often make guesses on how a film will perform. Sometimes the home studio is actually more conservative than other ones. For example, Disney had lower estimates for both Zootopia and Star Wars than almost any other studio. It's not a pissing contest, it's just a guess.
>>67774424
True and I fucking hate the disappearing captcha. It annoys me to no end.
>>67774306
I'm pretty sure it will reach 800 although I wouldn't be shocked it it didn't.
Remember just a few weeks ago the DC shills were talking about how it was going to top The Avengers easily?
>>67774489
It'll be at like 670 million by the end of this weekend, shouldn't be too hard to reach 800, even with such terrible drops. 850-900 range is where it'll probably stop
>>67774489
>Remember just a few weeks ago the DC shills were talking about how it was going to top The Avengers easily?
Yup, for months those DCucks spammed this board and now they're getting BTFO.
>>67774034
B-B-BUT IT BROKE RECORDS!
>>67774163
He didn't deserve this.
Fuck you Snyder. FUCK....YOU.
MARVEL ALWAYS WINS BABY
>>67774489
I knew as soon as those reviews came in that it would effect the amount of money the film would make. It probably will get 800 and break even but by the looks of the drop in revenue especially in forgien markets, I don't see it getting making that much more.
>>67774424
There is literally almost no precedent of rival studios estimating a low weekend just to fuck with another studio. It is literally just what their in-house experts think. Being accurate on estimates is actually beneficial to a studio, whether its their movie or not.
>>67774554
I don't think so. I was comparing the numbers of BvS with MoS and BvS is almost identical with MoS's second week numbers. If the drops continue and get bigger, it might not even make 800m at the end of its run.
Kino don't come with high box office numbers. They come with low numbers.
Again, Marvelfags are buttblasted.
>>67774243
fuck off holo
>>67774034
More like WB BTFO.
Plenty of production studios would suck dick at the opportunity to get DC properties.

Keep crying, DCuck. Your movie isn't art, it's blockbuster schlock that's full of symbolism that's heavy handed and shallow.
>>67774034
Called it.
>>67774424
My least favorite is selecting images with eggs.
>>67774697
Yes, but do you REALLY think an in house expert of a rival studio is going to say "Hmm, yes, this will do well." Obviously they're going to project on the lower end of the range on their estimate, as that's what they want to think. The studio making the movie of course would rather estimate on the higher end.
>>67774766
Enjoy your flicks, Marvelshit. DC has best movies, comics, videogames and cartoons. Haha.
>>67774034
This movie was too intellectual for Marvel fans and critics, and now it seems even general audiences are too dumb to understand this masterpiece.
I'm honestly dissapointed in the general public, if only they could watch this movie and actually pay attention, instead of fucking around with their phones and their girlfriends, they would have an euphoric movie experience like no other.

We joke but come on Marvel's Batman would be disgusting. WB already has the capability of making a fun superhero movie, its name is Paul Dini, they just need to tap that energy, make a movie like DC Incredibles and it'll be huge.
Also I know math has gotten good but good enough to predict at 2PM what a movie will gross?

>>67774824
I don't know, I think the general public has been pretty spot on. Here's what I heard leaving the theatre.
>I enjoyed it overall, but there were too many dream sequences and the actual Batman v Superman fight felt too short.
And then the RT general public score of like 3/5 is pretty fair. It's just the critics and fanboys who despise it.
Yeah it's not gonna make 800m
>>67774880
DC is for intellectuals. Not surprised an imbecile like you can't appreciate true art like Batman vs Superman.
>>67774271
They estimated 70% drop, the actual drop was 81%. 71.5% drop if you included Thursday previews. So the rival studios were practically right on their estimates.

MoS made less money in the opening weekend though. I looked it up and it only made 200 million opening weekend, BvS made 450. They have similar numbers after, but that additional 250 million is where the difference is. MoS made 670 overall, BvS is received worse, so 850-900

I found Burton's movies overrated and only liked because nostalgia, after seeing them recently.
>>67774870
BvS will be more than profitable once you factor in the merchandising and licensing fees WB is raking in.
The real problem is that BvS was supposed to be a launchpad for future DC films to build a DC Cinematic Universe around. With the 2 biggest characters in the DC universe not being a breakout success this will cast doubt into how other DC properties might perform (e.g. The Flash, Aquaman, Cyborg, Shazam, Green Lantern Corps, WW).
If the 2 biggest characters in the DC Universe can't attract Marvel-level of success, the lesser known (or less popular) DC character films may be in danger.
This is less about BvS than it is about the DC Cinematic Universe as a whole. It's not encouraging.
>>67774944
A drop this huge is fucking catastrophic for a movie that NEEDS to gross more than a billion and is tanking overseas
Star wars, for example, only dropped 38 percent its second weekend. BvS is projected to drop more than 70 percent
Does it matter anymore? The movie already broke even.

He's clearly talking about a hypothetical situation where Marvel got DC properties and made a Batman movie. He's not actually saying Batman is Marvel, he's saying a Marvel Batman movie would be absolute garbage.

No it hasn't, WB spent an insane amount of money on it. They need a billion for it to break even.

>>67775047
the plan was obviously to contrast with Marvel by using a more gritty tone. that's what they've been forced to totally reconsider, and likely the reason why the Wonder Woman movie is dropping references to BvS so they can limit how jarring the shift in tone is going to be.
>>67775066

No, the comic version of Watchmen is the Evangelion of Capeshit.
>>67774814
They aren't. Marvel has better critically acclaimed movies. Made comics darker and more gritty. Miller's DD is the main reason why ''iconic'' DC stories exist today. Vertigo is an Epic Comics rip off. Spider-Man 2, MvC, Ultimate Alliance, Ultimate Destruction and that 2001 Spider-Man are all better than DC games. Spectacular Spider-Man, X-Men: Evo, Wolverine and the X-Men, X-Men, EMH are all better than DC cartoons if you take off your nostalgia goggles.
Stay mad, casual. DC will never be as popular as Marvel again.
>>67775174
>and likely the reason why the Wonder Woman movie is dropping references to BvS
I still don't believe that one bit, no source was provided, just "I spoke to someone at WB!"
All we know now is that Suicide Squad is being reshot. Right now, Suicide Squad is the only hope DC has. If it does the same or worse than Batman v Superman, then the DC cinematic universe may as well be over.
>>67775047
>the lesser known (or less popular) DC character films may be in danger.
Like I said, I think the only thing right now that would tell is Suicide Squad. It's a movie with a ton of lesser known characters. So maybe, it's possible it'll do well as it won't have so many high expectations as BvS did. However, if SS fails due to being lesser known, then the DCCU is as good as dead. This is depressing.

>>67775307
>DC movies could have been great if Snyder had adapted them just like he adapted Watchmen, ie picking out key scenes from the comics and not thinking himself at all
>>67775341
It had an 80% drop WW and 85% in particular in China, what's your excuse there?
>>67775174
The problem with using the grittier tone is in execution.
It seems like Snyder took a lot of direction from Nolan's Batman films and tried to transpose those onto Superman and the rest of the DC Universe.
The grittier tone works for Batman because of Batman's backstory. It's been built into his character over the last 60+ years. The rest of the DCU (sans Green Arrow) doesn't have as dark a backstory so grittier is not necessarily better.

It's pretty telling that there are rumors of reshoots on Suicide Squad to make it less dark. Whether those rumors are true or not is another story, but IF TRUE it means WB is learning some of the mistakes made on BvS and applying it to future properties.
I'd probably expect some reshoots or rewrites on the script for WW also.
>>67775410
Bizarro would have been much better for the film. They could have fixed it by pushing the titular fight earlier in the movie, followed by Bizarro, created as a clone from Zod so Luthor had a far more controllable monster.
Doomsday is honestly one of the shittiest villains in comics. When he first appeared he was fine, but you're right, his only purpose now is just like some evil Hulk or something.

It will be a surprise if it its 600mil. This is not GoTG, it doesn't have the momentum and backing of Marvel. It has the shitty build up and reception of BvS to compete with.
>>67775554
I completely agree. BvS was all edge with not much in the form of fleshing out its characters or its central struggle. It could have done more to flesh out its characters (Lex, for one) like Nolan did for Ras Al Ghoul and the Joker but Snyder chose to go another route.
Wasted opportunity, imo.

American commercial cinema is just terrible, it makes no difference in which kids books company IPs are being exploited.
>>67775600
So? It doesn't matter what you attempted if your end result is a total failure. The Room attempted to be an intimate drama. Does that mean it's better than all action movies?
>>67775636
Its because for once its a movie for comic readers. That may be a flaw but from what I've heard and seen actual comic readers loved it and little kids are giddy over it.
>>67775522
I don't think they're rumors anymore, I think it's confirmed that WB has spent millions to reshoot parts of the film. Whether or not this was in response to shitty BvS reactions, or as a result of prior fan reactions to enjoying the Suicide Squad trailer for looking "fun" is unknown. My bet is it was in response to Deadpool, and WB started thinking BvS might run into some problems that were too late to change.
But now I'm even more concerned for Suicide Squad, because if the reshoots are as big as it's said, how can a movie survive that? I fear it's going to get butchered now so that these tons of new scenes can fit in or be rearranged.
Is it possible BVS wont even break 1 bill?
>2016
>Not making 1.5 Billon AT MINIMUM
>>67775629
reshoots are a good sign for the QUALITY of a movie, because it's a sign the studio has accepted that something needed to be fixed.
they're a bad sign for an extended universe which was predicated on a totally different kind of tone.
IT'S NOT FAIR
>>67775636
Lex was flashed out a lot, much more than the Joker was in TDK. What the fuck are you talking about?
>>67775066
This is a studio putting a shit load of money into a project that is not even close to breaking even. Of fucking course this matters. This is fucking bad. If they can't make a profit off two of the biggest superheros then all their other films are gonna fail and it's gonna be more waste of money plus shareholders lose out too.
You obviously don't understand shit about business or profits, but this is bad and people are gonna suffer cause of it

they're adding jokes. it costs millions just to do that because of the actors and production quality involved.
>>67775625
But how comes noone said that Batman stopping to kill Superman because their mothers have the same name is retarded as fuck?
That was the biggest issue I had with the movie and I am sure I am not alone with this opinion. They completely failed to resolve the big conflict in a meaningful way.
>yfw Furious 7 is a bigger success than Batman v Superman
>>67775750
>not knowing toy sales drive everything
>>67775620
O'Neill's Batman wasn't even dark you fucking pleb. It's like you googled ''Who made Batman darker'' and posted the first result you found here. Sure it got Batman back to his roots, introduced new concepts which you could say made the book more akin to a noir book. It had serious undertones but it wasn't even dark. Hell, Spider-Man was darker in 70's. Even Batman and the Outsiders was darker.
>>67775679
Yeah, the problem with reshoots is they're basically "supposed" to be edited into the final cut.
I was expecting SS to be more die hard, with a joke here and there but mostly serious but still a fun spectacle. I hope they don't go full retard, because I was looking forward to it more than BvS.
JUST FUCK MY SHIT UP WARNER
>>67775669
The problem when you make a movie solely for one type of niche audience, is that it takes a lot of return trips for the movie to be successful. The collapse of its #s after only its 2nd week are signs the movie doesn't have as broad an appeal to break out and become the tentpole to launch a new franchise that the WB was hoping it would be.
>>67775769

>>67774944
BvS had a record of second viewings.
Beyond that this "metric fuckton" is smaller in every market, when compared to say AoU.
And to top it off, the reason it is overall bigger in it's opening is due to a simultaneous opening
>>67775783
Furious 7 had the death of Paul Walker to add to its hype prior to release.
The way F7 handled Paul's death was also applauded by critics and audiences alike.
>>67775769

No, if they reboot there will be no Ben.
>>67775812
Youre a fucking idiot who didnt read it if you dont think it was darker. It had Batmans villains branding and killing people. It had Bats get broken and a killer Batman.

that's what happens - or a studio executive like Zack's wife will do effectively the same thing. the writer can point out why its stupid, but if the reasoning gets dismissed all he can do is write it or quit the film.
For perspective: Roman Polanski literally rewrote the final scene of Chinatown the night before shooting it and then let Jack Nicholson say the lines using his "kind of language". Writers can't control shit.

Plenty of people have that shated complaint. I dont see why though, its pretty easy to tell that bruce had been having nightmares about his parents muders and had been both reflecting on them and jadon todds death recently. Hearing marthas name being called out would be jarring enough to make him pause and reconsider his action, however i wish it had been fleshed out instead of popping back to whatever scene was between that one and when theyve clearly made up(cant remember exactly what it was, ww boarring the plane maybe?).
>>67775919
>It makes TWICE as much money
>>67775867
They should do an injustice movie and at the end have Flash go back in time to kill Jonathon Kent so MARTHA marries someone who isn't an asshole.
It would fix almost every problem.

>>67775688
It's pretty much guaranteed not to make it at this point, one thing that could've saved it were WW numbers, but drop there is even worse than NA and they have 0 new terriroties left. It's probably going to lose to fucking Deadpool and GotG in final NA box office too, which is a fucking embarassment
>>67775919
>>67775924
Not to mention Supes was still trying to hide his identity so saying Mom then Batman going to save Martha Kent would have pretty much been telling this crazy ass Batman your secret identity.
People don't consider that though cause that requires thought and people dont want to have to think during a movie.
>>67775937
I agree Injustice would be pretty great and frankly with how dark Superman is he would fit his injustice self
But audiences wouldn't understand and the film would bomb because MUH DARK SUPES

Name a movie that extensive reshoots, for whatever reason, ended up improving it. And I don't mean changing the script while filming, I mean already have filmed their content, and then went back and made more content to edit in, and it turned out great.

>>67775919
>>67775956
>>67775826
This isn't the issue and you know it.
Why would Batman even care about something like that?
He sees Superman as a threat because of his powers plus he became much more brutal over the years, up to the point where he guns down thugs with his minigun. Not to mention he even said if there is even an ounce of doubt about Superman's intentions, he should be treated as an enemy.
I just don't see how he would change his mind about that over the fact that his and Superman's mother have the same name.

They're loosing comic movie money. Not toy money overall. Star Wars did fantastic for example.

He though Supes was an alien that came to earth. Supes mentioning he wants to save someone close to him made Batman realize he was just an Earthling with powers. That he wasnt some emotionless god without humanity.

Warner Bris has already covered their asses with prerelease merchandise. I remember seeing a calculation that said that in the worst case scenario the movie only had to make 400 million to cover all expenses. Of course Warner Bros might still consider that failure, but to think that they would have but all their horses in one bag is just silly. Their a big company, they know what they're doing with their money.

No. I'm not straw manning, you're moving goal posts. We're talking about movie box office, and you're talking about toys. Because if toy sales "drive everything", doesn't that make us look even more pathetic because not only does Marvel have movies that make money, they have fucking Hasbro making their shit, and Mattel's been loosing to them for years. So Marvel movies have great box office AND great toy sales, and you're saying BvS is good because of toy sales?
You're literally making DCfags look even more pathetic. Just stop posting for the sake of everyone else, and if we're lucky, this will die.

Yes it was you nigger shit. Even O'Neill's Daredevil was darker than his Batman, thanks to Miller's DD.
If there's a comic that revitalized the industry, it's either Spider-Man, Conan or GL/GA, you kike.

Considering he has second billing behind Will Smith, and in the trailer he has gone through numerous outfit changes, I think it's safe to say he's in a decent amount of the film.
>>67776279
But GL/GA was Oneil so even if you dont think it was his Batman, which it was, you still concede ONeils DC work was the big change not Millers DD that came years later.

>>Citizen Kane and 2001 also had mixed reviews when they came out.
I laugh when DCucks use that excuse. 2001 received extremely polarizing reviews, everyone thought it was either a 10/10 or a 1/10. Citizen Kane received mostly positive reviews. Batman v Superman has gotten relentlessly panned and even the positive reviews say it's a deeply flawed movie.

No, you're the autistic fuck who can't understand what means anything. So what if kids loved it? Kids love Marvel movies too, and they buy both DC toys and Marvel toys, and in fact Marvel is doing better because Hasbro. So what the flying fuck does that contribute to anything of BvS?

Superman was saving people left and right and proved his loyalty to humanity when he stood up against Zod.
Batman's issue with Superman was his power. He was scared of him. The whole thing could have been resolved so much better. Maybe have Lois explain to Batman that Luther was behind everything and then in that moment, Doomsday breaks loose. Both of them facing a bigger threat, they decide to team up against him. Yadda yadda yadda, the fight ensues and Superman sacrifices himself, finally lifting any doubt Batman had.
Instead we got MARTHA
That whole Martha scene. I seriously wanted to walk out of the theater at that point

The story where Superman is going around helping people and was joyful at the end that he had done what he could?
As opposed to this film where he scowls while helping and solves disagreements with threats and punching?
Also a fucking deleted scene? Fucking seriously? Fuck yourself. You're ridiculous.
Henry makes a great Superman. He had nothing to work with in this film as far as the script went.
>>67776482
So you are altering your argument and conceding that Oneil's work was the original reason for the industry change? Its good to admit when you are wrong.
