>“Batman v Superman,” one of the most expensive films ever made, is on pace to produce a $278 million profit for Warner Bros. once home video, TV and merchandise proceeds are tallied, according to SNL Kagan analyst Wade Holden. That’s less than the estimated $300 million the studio earned from “Man Of Steel.” It’s also evidence that Warner Bros. has more work to do to make its DC Comics division the unbreakable superhero movie business it needs.
>To be as profitable as the lower-budget “Man of Steel” -- and some of the more successful Marvel films, which generate 44 percent net profit on average -- “Batman v Superman” would have to gross $1.15 billion worldwide, Holden estimates. “Age of Ultron” earned $853 million, he estimates.

Age of ultron was a really bad, boring and bland movie. Mark of the downhill for Marvel. Bat V Supes was okay. It lacked that final touch like the Nolan ones did. Honestly as a movie, batvsup shits on ultron since it was an inbetweener. Ultron is filler. So is civil war. At least im interested to see the next dc, but not the marvel. All of these movies are shit anyway, cod movies.
>There are seriously DC and Marvel fanboys on /tv/ who think everybody else falls into one of those categories
The Dark Knight was great. BvS was shit. Stop blaming Marvel and Disney for the fact that Snyder is incompetent.

>>68037299
Just a reminder that DC fanboys who receive support from friends and family, and have access to mental health services, are less likely to act on their suicidal impulses than those who are socially isolated. If a DCfag you know is exhibiting warning signs:
- ask if they are depressed or thinking about suicide
- check if they are seeing a therapist or taking medication
- assure them they are not alone and there is hope of things getting better
- tell them that you care and encourage them to seek professional help.
If you believe a DC fanboy you know is in immediate danger of committing suicide:
- do not leave them alone—if possible, ask for help from friends or family members
- ask them to give you any weapons they have, and remove sharp objects or anything else they could use to hurt themselves
- try to keep them as calm as possible
- call 911 or take them to an emergency room.
>>68038304
But the shooting didnt have impact, we didnt see batman even bat an eye when killing with guns. Id prefer at least a little more moral dilemma or raised stakes. But yes the alfred parts were fine. Btw im the guy who trashed ultron.

DC is utter trash dude.
Batman is the only good villain of DC, and he is literally just a moralfag version of Daredevil.
>>68038398
The sad part is that this is something I could see a snyderfag unironically believing.
>>68038508
I still want to see the movie and see for myself if it's really that bad. For what it's worth I thought Man of Steel was pretty okay. Not great, but okay.
DC really should've copied Marvel a bit more and make the series less gritty and dark. It doesn't have to be funny full of le quips, but really, just treat them as the stupid comic book movies they're supposed to be. Realism works with Batman, but not the entire DC universe.
>>68040231
No.
The real probme with DC is that they practcially control their movies and don't what they're doing, while Marvel is actually hands-off, even if Disney calls the shots.
The myth of Disney/Marvel being totalitarian is a lie. Even if Disney doesn't like to take risks, once they secure talent for a role, they take their hands off it.
In contrast, DC pretty much dictates all the shit. Even Man of Steem and BvS lacked the slow motion and gravitas that typified Snyder in 300 and Watchmen. Thats how much exec meddling MoS and BvS had.
DC just doesn't get it. It took Marvel a lot of movies in roder to figure out the formula. Hell, did DC even watch a Marvel movie to learn a thing or too? CLearly they didn't.
>>68041574
>The real probme with DC is that they practcially control their movies and don't what they're doing, while Marvel is actually hands-off, even if Disney calls the shots.
That's a lie. It's no secret that Kevin Feige controls the Marvel Studios' movies with an iron-rule. That's why they hire mostly TV writers and directors, because most people don't like to be controlled to such an extent.
Warner Brothers has always been known as the auter studio. That's why WB is in such a bad shape, because there's no oversight. They give their big directors complete freedom and a big pile of cash and these movies as of late have all flopped hard. Go check it up.
MoS was all Nolan, Goyer and Snyder.
BvS was all Snyder, Affleck and Terrios.

Seeing Tao Okamoto was worth it but the movie itself wasn't entertaining until you have the whole heroes versus monster thing. It was dull to watch until there was some actual conflict between Superman and Batman yet the movie didn't feel satisfying even then.I didn't pay for my ticket.

Do you understand how much 300 million is? That would be considered a lot for any business, literally any business. Most movies don't even make that much. There's tons of movies that have like a 10 million budget and then make maybe 50 million gross or whatever. 300 million might be low for a block buster, but it's still a ton of money for a movie in general. They also still have Suicide Squad which is expected to make more money. These businesses don't set everything on a single movie.
Has it crossed the 800m mark?
>>68042723
It started slowing down hard at 700 million.
They'll be lucky if it gets to 900.
>>68042035

Guardians of the galaxy was really successful despite being a bunch of nobodies. Though I don't have any numbers to put that into perspective.
>>68040231
BvS isn't terrible so much as there's nothing to like about it. The only real upside is Snyder's sense of shot composition. Outside of that, literally nothing.
He's an awful director in every regard besides framing, but his framing is genuinely pretty good when he actually puts effort into scene. When he doesn't is when you get the 1:1 replicas of comic panels and the frequent shitty close-ups. Why did this movie have so many shitty close-ups
>>68042549
Yeahm but the thing is even after a hair transplant you're going to keep losing hair. Fin stops that. Hair transplant plus fin=you're golden. Hair transplant without fin means soon you're just going to be balding again in a really weird pattern.

I know, that's what I was saying. He has to be on something by this point, the studios would know. Of course I'm sure they're also going to be pushing roids on him, and it probably cancels out the finasteride.

Look at OP's picture.
Now play this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2fuTzOnuVM
so its still going to make around 200million in profit?
See, what none of you understand is what it's like to be Superman.
I know how it feels.
I was that boy whose rocket ship landed in the cornfield. Who grew up feeling like he didn't belong. Who grew up knowing his "parents" weren't really his parents and who secretly wished they'd buried that baby they found (me, if it wasn't already obviously) in a ditch instead of raising me as their own.
The other kids knew something was off about me. They never let me join their games. They made me eat moldy cheese and laugh at my zits. They laughed when I told them my acne was caused by peanut butter cups, which I guess in hindsight seems dumb, but what did I know...
Anyway, that's how Superman feels. He never feels like he belongs. His peanut butter cups are Kryptonite and his bully is Lex Luthor. I don't know if he ever at moldy cheese, but I sure hope not, because it would make me cry if I thought he had.
Does anyone know if the beautiful woman who played Martha Kent is single? I'd like to send her a nice letter. Maybe we could go out to dinner some time.
>>68038135
I will bite. Chances are the real fans know the characters, motivations, and interpretations to decipher the film with little input from the director/writer. Notice how we have never had an adaptation of a well know superhero without some form of origin story (non sequels), fans do not give a crap but critics and avg joes do.
A user review got my interest in this film by saying it is basically an episode of justice league cartoon. The funny thing is both bvs and mos are hailed as shit yet i enjoyed them. While Deadpool, TFA were the opposite. I felt TFA was an expensive remake, while DP has stale crude jokes, nothing offensive (the info on finding Francis scene was very good).
Film industry for big budget flicks feel like the gaming industry now in terms of reviews: the praised stuff is avg, and the avg while flawed goes in unique routes which leads to pleasant surprises. I now have to count on user reviews to know if something is worth my time.
fuck off with your capeshit, manchild
And yet they still wanna chuck more money on big tentpole franchises
>>68043847
As long as it turns a profit, then yes. The future is cinematic universes (star wars, Marvel, Dc, godzilla, ect..) and merchandising. Also if they can improve the formula it is possible to do better the next round.

>>68042179
But people involved in the movie talked about all this shit before the movie even came out.
I don't get why detractors all just should "YOURE MAKING IT UP!!! PURE COINCIDENCE!!!" When people like Snyder, affleck and terrior have been upfront about all those themes from the beginning.
And if you don't care for movies having themes or symbolism then of course you will hate BvS, you're only watching half a movie. It's like licking a banana then saying "naa, why would a peel the skin off? that just autistic". If that's not your kind of thing or just don't understand it then that's fine, but don't get mad that other people enjoy that kind of thing.

>>68037660
I can't find that video, did it get taken down?
Have to admire Feige's genius. Bulding highest-grossing cinematic franchise FROM NOTHING is incredible. Amazing business achievement. Disney created, capitalized and will capitalize on superhero bubble until it pops after Infinity War Pt. 2 and at that point Disney/Marvel would've made all the money they need.
Warner, who had the incredible momentum after the Dark Knight squandered their potential completely. They missed bubble growth. They missed their chance to establish their cinematic universe. When they did notice what Marvel was doing, they made half-assed attempt via Green Lanthern and failed miserably. Instead of proper analysis they made another half-assed attempt by making MoS and failed again. In the meanwhile Marvel made C-list characters successful.
Warner failed and fails to capitalize on the superhero bubble peak which we experience today by making ANOTHER mistake via BvS. They failed to capitalize on the most cashgrab title ever! Marvel, on the other hand, will dominate the box-office this year, both Civil War and Dr. Strange will be extremely successful.
If by tiny chance Suicide Squad will be successful, if by tiny chance Justice League or WW will be successful, Warner will already be far too late. Superhero bubble will burst after 2020 when Infinity War Pt. 2 will end and normies will see that mega storyark Marvel is doing completed. No need to watch capeshit for them, everyone will switch to some other genre like space operas or whatever.
Join the colorful side, DCfriends, be on the winning team. You don't need to endure Snyder anymore, you don't need to hide your frustration under the mask of: "BvS was great". Don't lie to yourself.
