  1. Will be seeing this in about 4 hours. I'm much more excited now than I was a few weeks ago.
  2. So how we feeling if this gets up over $120M? It's not the $150M+ that was discussed many weeks ago but it'd still be really satisfying no?
  3. Two James Gunn movies. Not a coincidence. Also not a coincidence that one movie is directed by Reeves and another by Coogler.
  4. They are pretty rare. I think even 'Infinity War' was like 84% and most people I've ever talked to prefer that over 'End Game' which did end up at like 93% or something like that. You can't really predict how critics will respond to any CBM.
  5. There had to be a "wait and see" approach from Gunn/DC/WB because even though Gunn is confident in his 'Superman' and it appears it will do alright at the box office, there had to be some hesitancy to all of it. If 'Superman' turns out to be a bad movie or flops at the box office, you can't really go anywhere from there. It's risky enough that 'Supergirl' is being made at the same time and 'Lanterns' is in development, etc. Imagine what would happen to those projects if this movie was bad? There were a lot of moving parts here. It's not like Feige devising a plan using characters that had never been on the big screen before. If you miss with 'Iron Man' oh well, the rest likely don't get made. If you miss with 'Superman' it hurts the entire studio moving forward.
  6. You have to kind of give Gunn a break here because he came into a situation where he's starting a new universe almost from scratch but needed to let Phillips and Reeves cook because of how successful their movies were. If he had canceled either project the backlash would have been immense.
  7. You're right, they need to give a release date on 'The Batman II' soon now that the script is done and also make some announcements regarding 'Brave and the Bold' and a possible Superman sequel. I think 'Supergirl' 'Peacemaker' and 'Lanterns' will do a nice job of feeding folks in between.
  8. Do y'all think Mister Terrific is going to be a big character moving forward? Everyone seems to be saying he was great
  9. You have to get Superman and Batman right (and Wonder Woman too) before you can start talking about other characters. I think they went with Supergirl because of how closely removed we are from Wonder Woman and Gal Gadot being a popular figure in the DCEU.
  10. Your first reply to me was that critics are "professionals" and I'm explaining that the voters in the Academy are also made up of professionals, in their respective fields, the same fields they are voting on... It's ok if you didn't like 'Joker' or any other movie you dislike. Everyone has opinions. It doesn't make their less valuable.
  11. I don't know about all that, the awards are voted on by the people who work in those respective fields so I would say they know a great deal about what they are talking about.
