Daxtreme Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 15 minutes ago, MrFanaticGuy34 said: And JW had better WOM & reception from critics & audience. Just wondering, why several people here expect a huge superhero-movie to win the year, box office wise? When clearly, the latest superhero-films from Marvel & DC haven't won either DOM or WW.....post-Avengers 1. We always get surprises like American Sniper winning 2014, DOM-wise & Jurassic World winning the summer 2015.....etc. It's mostly never a superhero-movie like people thought....but gets overpredicted to win the year. Indeed, I made a bet in 2014 that the #1 movie was gonna be Star Wars in 2015, pretty much everyone I did it with said it was gonna be avengers 2. Well, they were wrong. And I'm doing this bet again this year for Rogue One. And many will choose something else. Nothing else needs to be said except, never bet against Star Wars. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

babz06 Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Suicide Squad is being over-predicted. GOTG was a much more family friendly film, plus Suicide Squad isn't going to be R-rated like Deadpool, so what is the 'hook' besides The Joker and Harley Quinn? I think it has a chance to take the August OW record but have worse legs than GOTG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see this happen tbh Thats why suicide squad needs to promote more fun to attract larger mass Right now title alone may keep some parents away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it has a chance to take the August OW record but have worse legs than GOTG I don't know if SS is being overpredicted or not but the similarity with GOTG is only on the surface. GOTG main attraction character in a strict marketting point of view was Rocket Racoon. He was the one the marketting focused the most to attract families. I don't see any similar character in SS to attract that specific target. Edited April 5, 2016 by Ent 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And there is the Olympic games ahead. Big competition + Marvel knows how to satisfy GA and DC know how to satisfy diehard fanboys There is no chance SS will be over 200M, which in my opinion is a huge success for WB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WrathOfHan Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 There will always be clueless parents who will take their kids to anything, just look at the kid reports for Deadpool However, I'd say a good chunk will be cautious because of how dark BVS was. Sausage Party has a lot more to worry about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedieb Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 I really think this is just going to keep dropping and dropping... I expect a sub 2.0x multiplier. BvS will end up around $315-320M Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why shouldn't a 200m for SS a success for DC. Dont gets your hopes too high. It might end in the lower projections like BvS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
