    Not really a spoiler, but it needs to be said:

     

    Keaton elevates Vulture to the status of BEST SPIDER-MAN VILLAIN. And I'm not talking about just movies. MCU's Vulture is Spider-Man's best villain topped only by Green Goblin and Dr. Octopus from the comics. Molina's Octopus was amazing, but he got nothing on the Vulture. Fucking insane. 

    "I thought that was the gravity gun"

    I laughed so hard wasn't much but he sold it.

    For the longest time, I thought these franchises would be trouble to Wonder Woman. I thought Transformers would step in and decimate it. But alas...

     

    Wonder Woman to every blockbuster this summer:

    Im glad I was one of those who pretty much knew WW was gonna have a strong domestic preformance in fact I remember being laughed at  numerous times for saying 300 domestic.

    I agree but I think a decent sum of WW are the same ones who wouldn't see JL. Same for Panther and Infinity War. I think those films have more of an impact then an ensemble. Still thinking $160M/$425M for JL though.

    Those who loves WW are gonna see JL for her regardless.

    This is the very same Effect IM has  in the MCU so I see no reason why it wouldn't be the same for the Dceu.

    Its universe building each film helps out the other by sharing its fans and it's good will.

    WW making more than 350dom while opening to only 103mil(3x+) Just have JL an incredible boost as many were Very interested in the JL trailer before It's showing.

    They all  its connection plus it's a Holiday release which will make it even bigger.

    The weight from BVS has just been lifted as the public now Sees JL the next Story that involves Wonder Woman a  phenomenon in the Domestic market .

    Now if JL was more than a Year Away and then The Dceu dropped another divisive story before then I would agree with you.

    Thus, why many people appreciated the villains more than the "Batmen" in those movies...I think I talked about my opinion of the Michael Keaton Batman last week - good Bruce Wayne, not good Batman - 1st movie saved by awesome Jack Nicholson Joker...

     

    Batman, at his best, should be the brilliant determined aloof detective...the "pure human" on the team who finds his place by seeing what the gods on the team can't see...the guy who keeps them all honest (b/c he can stop them), the guy with all the money and the toys...and truly, the guy who values human life above all others b/c he's had it taken from him, 1st with his parents and then with Jason...that brings him darkness that he keeps at bay with his vow to never kill...that's Batman...

     

    Losing that "no kill" vow is losing an essential part of Batman...it's like losing Spiderman's "with great power comes great responsibility" understanding from Uncle Ben...

    There's still many other versions and stories of the Character to be told.

    I see nothing bad out of BVS being the very reason for his "No kill code" ,However the Dialogue between Bruce and Alfred clearly states that he's out of character in the sense of this story and it's not like him to be doing this.

    I think this is a good plot point  of the story many have glossed over.

     

    The whole point of Superman Dying (Selfless act)was for Batman to see that this world Needs heroes and not  vigilantes with personal agendas.

    Batman himself saw that he is supposed to be a symbol Of heroism and not Fear or Death.

    From the whole Martha to Superman Dying was his Intervention.

    But then, how can you justify that Batman hasn't killed the Joker yet?

    He actually did in Batman 89'

    He clearly has the opportunity to let the Joker Escape and get the girl to safety.

    Not saying Ras'  also counts as death on his hands as it is a heroes duty to save those in need and Batman didn't on purpose.

     

    In The Dceu ,Maybe The Joker Has always gotten away as he does in the Comics.

    Yeah, Incredible Hulk and IM2 may look like comparative weak links in retrospect, but I don't remember anyone doubting the MCU's future because of them.

    the MCU didn't have a string of critical/WOM/Box office flops. Even the weaker movies were still generally well received. Nothing like the Dark Universe (which already had false starts with Van Helsing and Dracula Untold, even if we're not meant to act like those exist).

     

    Van Helsing was suppose to be part of The Dark Universe?

    I never knew that.

    DC movies seriously needs to build their overseas reputation. Most big hollywood blockbusters do pretty damn well internationally, I'm not saying WW isn't doing well but it could do alot better. If you look at Marvel 1st movies of their franchise especially Doc Strange and GoTG1 they both made 440M+ OS. Even Ant-Man did 340M OS. 

    They are decent hits overseas but I believe JL will break the trend of Sub 600mil gross.

    I think they got that sort of talent behind Aquaman. Hopefully they save Justice League. And no I don't hate Snyder and liked Man of Steel but he's wrong for this Universe.

    Yeah he's totally wrong for being responsible for five 100+openings and five 300dom grossers and 3Bil for four films.

    Its a wonder Why WB ever let him touch these films :redcapes:
