Great news! Hope this doesn't result in MoS 2 being a rush job.

[Louis Lux]

I agree.The Only thing i wanted to say with this was WW dont need to open on mothers daylike MoS opend on fathers day.Thats all

I for one would be thrilled to take my mom to a wonder woman movie on mother's day. It would just give the movie a small bump that is all.

As much as I love it to happen,  dont think a WW movie can actually work. The story of WW is based on Myth and magics (just like many other DC characters and stories), while Batman and Superman are sci-fi based. They dont fit together in the same live actions cinematic universe.

Yet Loki is still described by the Asgardians as a sorcerer.  At any rate, there's little reason WW couldn't be given a similar shit.  The gods become tech-lord aliens, much like in Thor, then the Amazons become the group on Earth they shared some or all of their technology with.

 

And, Nitpick, but as I understand it the Mandarin is not a magic villain in the comics.  As I understand it the "ten rings" are actually parts from a crashed alien ship.

WOW.

[#ED]

Wait, is this an actual?

[superduperm]

If the increase happened entirely on Sunday, then Sunday will be bigger than Saturday.

 

There's only a tiny bit of wiggle room, though, like $20K, so it all depends how well Saturday was estimated.

Wondering if it can top Alice's $1,024.3b and become the biggest non sequel ever.

 

every existing multipler is excellent.

This is still an estimate...

No. But close to

2016 for both Superman and a Batman reboot would be a dream come true for me.

MoS 2 isn't being hushed, trust me on that. Warner knows better than this. I just hope thay they bring someone else other than Goyer to write the script and the screenplay, regardless the fact I haven't watched the film yet, I feel like the RT score is a good opportunity for Warner realize how big of a hack David Goyer is.

This isn't going to do 650m+ OS, so people should stop expecting 1bn WW. 800m is the target.

I'm almost certain they'll fudge it to an increase if iSunday doesn't beat Saturday,

See what Marvel did with Magic based Thor ? They pretty much reset the settings into a sci-fi world. All the nine realms in MCU now are outer Planets. And they even couldn't use the real Mandarin, who has magic powers in comics, as a character in their movies, because that would ruin their sci-fi set MCU.

 

I think, to make a workable (and reasonable) WW movie and link it with Superman/Batman/JL, DC probably will have to go the same route as Marvel. Make WW an alien too that would be.

 

I agree to some extent but I'd much rather Wonder Woman be from a parallel universe where Greek mythology is real.

 

A big "no" to Wonder Woman being an alien. That's just wrong, man.

That just gave mé a boner

[Brilliant Dynamite Neon]

Super.  Absolutely super.

[ZattMurdock]

I believe it will happen in 2015, with maybe another DC superhero film happening in the same year or 2016. They won't rush it, but there's a hurry for getting the Justice League film off the ground most certainly. I just hope that they will properly introduce at least Batman and Wonder Woman films before going with the Justice League film.
