Goffe Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 What insolence! You should be glad that Brazil exists because of us. You never know, that whole area could've been an extension of one of those drug infected dictatorships that exist in South America right now (but then again, Brazil isn't too far off from that anyway [emoji185]).

If BvS were directed by someone else, you know, a better director......would the film's critical reception be a lot better than what it is now? What if J.J Abrams directed this? How different would the movie be? It would be a fan film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes they align and it seems critics matter but it's WOM making all the difference for a movie like BVS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On second thought, though, it doesn't seem that awful. Basically, on a "more normal" week, we'd have seen a slightly harsher Monday drop, a lighter Tuesday drop, and a 31-32% Wed drop. BVS just took a slightly different route to the same end result. Lol dude this is not a good Monday-Wednesday sequence, no other way to spin it.

True.....but it underperformed due to very heavy competition that May 2013. Iron Man 3 stole it's BO-thunder. And it didn't help either that Fast 6 & Hangover 3 cut it's legs off. And also lackluster marketing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer a bit challenging with a touch of soul. Like the 2002 Spiderman. Or all great movies. BvS checks all the boxes. And we have not seen the final version. Yet.
