    Honestly, The Batman numbers sounds right to me assuming that 

     

    1) It is well received by both critics and audiences

     

    2) it has unique style (like The Batman), and doesn't look derivative, basically differentiating itself from other CBMs

     

    I do not believe that the audiences of today don't care about Superman, it is just that he has starred in crap movies created by people who do not understand the character in the slightest. Even still, BvS and MoS were not that long ago and both opened huge. 

     

     

     

    People didn't care about Captain America prior to 2011 (or 2014 if you want to stretch it). I sincerely believe that one really good movie (non-controversial) would do wonders for the public perception of Superman.

    I mean did it fail them they got wga to accept a contract worth half what they came in looking for, they got the wga to accept an extremely high threshold residual bonus, most will never reach and they got them to cut their minimum staffing requirements in half and accept an exception where showrunners can write all the episodes themselves. 

     

    They still ultimately had to make a deal instead of waiting for the WGA to get burned out. And they ended up paying more than they would have in the original deal.

    As far as Iger is concerned, Disney doesn't really have any better options. If they're going to get out of their rut at all, he is probably their best hope of doing it.

     

    And just like Zaslav, Iger is in almost no danger of getting the boot. As soon as revenue in the parks goes back up and they get more sizeable box office hits, the calls for his head will die down.

     

    Same as it ever was.
