Why the fuck haven't they fired him yet? It's pretty clear at this point BvS isn't going to hit a billion and they've already distancing the other DC movies from Snyder's latest abortion.

>Why the fuck haven't they fired him yet?

For the same reason Fox claimed Fant4stic would get a sequel and WB would do a sequel to Green Lantern and Superman Returns and Sony still talked about spin-offs after ASM2. You can't badmouth it while it's still in theaters.

OMG what if it hits 999 millions only?
>>
>>81414244
He won't be fired. He'll walk away because of "creative differences." Y'know, just like Trank and LucasFilm.
>>
>>81414437
It'd be pretty funny.

So why hasn't that happen yet?

Remember when 100 million was the magic number to determine whether a movie is good or not? Back when dinosaurs roamed the land?

Really though, it's like >>81414304 said, they aren't gonna shit on him or the movie while it's still playing. It's bad business.

Justice League is supposed to start filming in less than two weeks. Unless they delay it, like, right now, Snyder is still attached.
>>
>>81414966
Just like Justice League Mortal.

If a movie costs $10 million to make, then $100 million is a good number at the box office. However, BvS costs $250 Million (the actual production budget is $320M but it b/c of tax incentives & rebates, it was brought down) and another $200M to market /advertise, it needs around $1 Billion to produce a profit.
>>
>>81414913
I remember when Dead Man's Chest made $1B and it was astonishing.
>>
>>81415057
What like ten years?
>>
>>81415279
Movies need to make at least 3 times what they cost to be considered profitable by execs/studios
>>
>>81414966
I legitimately don't know why the fuck they put WW into production so early and why they'd film JL practically back to back with BvS' release

Like MoS has a fucking 3 year break, but JL only has a 1 year break?
>>
>>81415486
They thought they'd gotten a handle on things

Also gotta catch up
>>
Too many Man of Shit defenders.
>>
>>81415486
They want a more tightly packed schedule to make as much money as possible, makes sense.
I mean they're looking at Marvel making 1-2 billions every year with 2 movies, I can understand why they'd want a similar rythm.
>>
I have little faith in Justice League. But what are the prospects of the other movies being decent based solely on their directors?
>>
>>81414244
Because his wife pitched the next five movies in this sequence and EPs for two of them. It's basically her project; fire him, you risk firing her, and the whole thing falls apart.

Besides, it's only underperforming. It hasn't Green Lanterned yet.
>>
>>81415560
I hated BvS and I think MoS was great

Well, if his wife so important that she can't be replaced?

As I recall she produced the BvS shitshow too.

It starts filming in 8 days

We're hoping for a miracle

Is this you?
Maybe don't be a vocal member of the community
>>
Whatever. Batfleck's solo movie will hit a billion easy.
>>
>>81417834
Because studios have never ever switched directors in the middle of filming right?
>>
>>81417925
>we're

I liked it, and because of whinging, sniveling faggots like you, I hope he directs everything you love.
>>
Skip Justice League, wait for the solo films. It's really that simple. It is abundantly clear that Snyder's movies are only going to affect the narrative of this universe in a negative way.

>Wonder woman

>Director: Patty Jenkins
She only have directed 3 films before WW, but both Monster and Five had very good reviews, and won some prizes, so there's a huge chance she can do a good work. Unfortunately, she's the second director, after Michelle Mclaren left due creative differences with WB. So, as usual, executives meddling could seriously mess with her skills.

>Writer: Jason Fuchs.
Literally who? Nothing important to note here, he did the last ice age film script (we pirates now!), and some Law & Order episodes, but other than that, I can't bet on either side. At least, he's writing a LOBO script, so looks like he's a fan of comics, which could be a good thing.

>Wonder woman: Gal Gadot.
JUST...

So... out of the most important aspects on a film, (director, writer and lead actress), we have one good, one bad and one neuter. Who knows? The most worrisome IMO isn't Gal Gadot, as a good supporting cast can carry bad lead actress, but not even the best actress can made a shit script to be good. I think the director will made the best work she can do with the script, and can even push Gadot to do some decent playing... but there's only so much she can do with the source material.
>>
>>81419257
Bro get off the bandwagon already, Gal Gadot was fine as Wonder Woman.
>>
>>81414244
he killed off Mercy graves witout even getting her into a fight scene or doing something relevant,
fuck him
>>
>>81419342
While I'm aware of all the buzz about her good work in the couple scenes where she appeared, I'm not convinced. So far, she have only show to switch between bedroom eyes and angry face, and all the CG around made kind of hard to appreciate the choreography and her swordsmanship.

Also, to be honest, reading most of the opinions about her, the main arguments are "muh girl powah!" and "well, at least they didn't ruined her like Batman or Supes".

I may be wrong, and WW could be an outstanding achievement in film (and art) history, with Gal Gadot doing a superb job, but till we get more info, I'm sceptical.
>>
>>81415023
Justice League Mortal WAS going to be made. It was because of the writer's strike that it got delayed and then abandoned.
>>
>>81419342
Yeah her back looked great in BvS. What else do you need!
>>
>>81418047
But has to be good first
