AniNate Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 I didn't gloat to his face but I couldn't help being amused at seeing my brother rant in anger about BvS on Facebook after he insisted to me a couple weeks ago when I was visiting him how awesome it would be 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWXII Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 2 minutes ago, OncomingStorm93 said: This has to be considered a (minor) failure for Warner Bros. Yes, it will still be profitable, but consider the marketing campaign. I don't care about the costs, just the sheer scale of it: 3 full Comic-Cons basically dedicated just to this, 2 years of social marketing, with the Batman/Batmobile and other teases happening as early as May 2014, A full year of marketing, with an almost unprecedented four full trailers, And the appeal of having DC's main three heroes in a single film for the first time, ... for the film to be (potentially) sinking like a rock, after that front-loaded first 48 hours, is awful. Maybe Warner Bros was banking on China. Well, I heard it busted over there. Zack Snyder needs to be removed. I think we should at least wait until it stops breaking box office records before taking such extreme measures. Kay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're reaching with A LOT of those that I'm not even going to bother correcting you. Edit: Actually I will. This is a Superman sequel so it's not Batman's nor Wonder Woman's movie. Since when does Zach Snyder get his own category? Another thing: "outside of summer," yea lets stop reaching for these "records." We aren't talking about Brazil or other countries, we are talking about NA. Star Wars and Jurassic World would beg to differ with the "biggest global OW." I can continue but I figured id leave you something since BvS can't do it itself. Edited April 1, 2016 by Nova 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OncomingStorm93 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 (edited) 6 minutes ago, Napoleon said: Biggest March OW And still fell short of expectations Biggest Easter OW I'll give you that Biggest March Monday Who cares about March? Biggest March Tuesday See above. Biggest DC OW Biggest Batman OW Biggest Superman OW Biggest Wonder Woman OW Biggest Zack Snyder OW Yeah.... breaking your own in-house records might be good for morale, but once you compare it to expectations and competition, it becomes meaningless. Biggest WB OW outside of Summer I'll give you that Biggest OW All Time in Brazil and other countries And legs will drop like a rock there also Biggest Global OW Because Marvel films have staged releases, UK/Europe one week earlier than America, and China later. If Marvel had a global release weekend like BvS for the Avengers films, you do the math. I'm not saying the overall number isn't impressive, because it is, but with the amount of territories having the film that opening weekend.... it should have been higher for the event Warner Bros wanted it to be. Is it enough to you or you want more? Edited April 1, 2016 by OncomingStorm93 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You forgot the 3x the OW of Green Lantern record as well as the number 1 film in Gotham and Metropolis records. Also I'm sure it set an opening weekend record with a flock of penguins in Antarctica. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
