"WB doesn't care about social media"? What??? Social media is marketing. ScreenGeek at it again.

That second tweet is weird. Wasn't the guy from the Accountant directing this movie? So it was getting made without Gunn anyway.

Both of those seem really fake. A lot of contradiction with no clarity. Well except for the rumour that RF and Mirror Master are the villains.

Wished the hair colour was a little more distinct than the fur colour. But looks really good. Reminds of the fan/leaked concept art. The Wiig casting looks even better (shoutout to her cat sketch with Kate on SNL lmao).
Sadly rumour is that Cheetah only appears for a few minutes and we never get a great look at her.

That probably similar to what Nolan can do if he would do a movie like Django.
Tarantino is one of the biggest draw there is
WW-China / adjusted for US dollar inflation
Dunkirk: 449m / 468.3m
Django: 449.8m / 500.86m
Interstellar: 554m / 577.81m
Where did you get 449.8 from Django from (all I see is 425)? And you left out a pretty big film riding TDK-Nolan hype. Tarantino doesn't draw like Nolan.

Tarantino not a draw???????
That is ridiculous.
*Like I said, major draw like Nolan. 425 is Quentin's highest grosser. That's nothing like Nolan.

Yes, but I doubt the fanbase is big enough to make him a box office draw the way that Nolan and Tarantino are.
Tarantino isn't a major box office draw like Nolan, who himself is not that big of a draw post-TDK trilogy. And yeah Gunn on his own isn't a draw. But that's what the rest of my OP gets at.

I wish I could say that I was joking, but it wouldn’t surprise me if the alt-right types manage to successfully do everything in their power to make James Gunn’s name as toxic as possible.
Toxic is good! At least for box office *JOKER*. Now having critics attack TSS would be bad bad. But Brightburn did decent and had Gunn's name everywhere. So hopefully people like Gunn.

No but seriously, what has James Gunn done except directing a few MCU movies for Feige? Are Peyton Reed and the Russo brothers visionary geniuses and huge box office draws too?
Gunn has a dedicated fanbase and is beloved. This is a popular franchise (doesn't matter if the movie sucked, people still know SS and Harley). Combine the two and you get hype for a casting reveal. Add in the fact everyone knows Gunn can fix SS, you get hype for a sequel to a bad movie.

2 minutes ago, lorddemaxus said:Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if Gunn is at least a bit of a draw. Like, I can easily see him on the marketing and on late night shows and stuff. He's gotten a lot of attention since the whole GOTG 3 drama that happened. He's probably the most loved MCU director after Taika Waititi.
Drama is good people are going to want to support him. Gunn is gonna run this marketing to perfection. The cast reveal was already a banger. He literally regenerated 40% pre-SS release hype with one tweet. I have no concerns for BO for this one.

If BoP underperforms (say, a 35/90 run) will that affect how much they push Harley in this movie next year?
Harley will still be pushed, but John and Idris will get pushed too (big runs coming off F&F). Then there James Gunn and his name will be everywhere - which will take care of any box office concern. Seriously Gunn is the biggest draw imo.

Joker is one of the most pretentious movie of this decade.
Werent you the one who said you would never watch Joker? Why are BOP stans attacking joker now?
DC stans gotta stick together.

Literally two hours of anxiety. Watched basketball all my life, I know the Celts were going to win, but I just kept thinking maybe they changed it. Haven't felt this tense during a movie since mad max. Incredible. The safdie bros do it again.
Also KG should have been nominated for an Oscar. And Julia Fox wow. This might be the startup of her career and being apart of that is awesome.
8.8/10 (A).

So with Iger confirming that star wars will stay on streaming for now, looks like Aquaman will dominate December again.
Also, Emilia Clarke for Mera. That Jason-Emilia connection is wild. Would make an insane domestic total.

"No one ever went broke underestimating the taste of the American Public".
P.T. Barnum.
Just because something is popular does not mean it's any good. I can point on hugely popular films that are now pretty much regarded as garbage.
Exactly. Before the trailer dropped, everyone was asking why the franchise wasnt dead, why they never race now etc. Yet boom. Tickets go on sale and everyone's there day 1.

Sorry, didn't see that. I think it was a previous article where they said 83 mil or something like that.
THR had it at 80 something.

Yeah, but I'm saying they can't do it - so they better don't try. Deadpool is one of those inimitable things.
Anyway. I'm getting much more different vibes from their promos - some artsy-fartsy anti-Suicide Squad* with ugly look and a hyena. Only good thing is the hyena.
* which is a mistake; Harley was extremely popular in SS, I know better than anyone else, because I sell merch. Not broken - don't fix it.
Could you also tell me the lotto numbers for today oh great all-knowing being?

Do you think we’ll see a similar scene in the movie with Ezra’s Barry going into the multiverse? And then it is followed by this scene with him running into Grant?
I think thats the most probable scenario. It would be a very cool post credit scene if that what's they elect to do.

I'm starting to think that he is testing with Victor if he can travel in time. I'd expect this scene on his film in 2022 and Cyborg as sidekick.
I also think this is extremely likely. The aspect ratio of the show changed and the scene even looked weird. Definitely shot for the big screen.

That's how you get people back on the Ezra bandwagon. I wasn't so sure about him from JL, but im all in now.

That was pure hype. Props to CW they achieved endgame with that alone.

I agree, but still, if the Joker loses the Best Picture award the meltdown is going to be something to see.
Like the meltdown when it lost the golden globe?
Ironic how all of this toxicity just proves JOKER right. "No one's civil anymore!". This movie is legendary yet people act like it has nothing important to say.

June still seems good to me. Should hopefully die down by then. WW84 has the potential to be the first blockbuster out after this. Movies have always been there to distract and comfort.
If not, December is a great date. No matter what happens, this is going to make 1 billion. No release date is going to change that.
