So you finally admit to Godzilla type legs? The first step is acceptance.

 

There is an extended Godzilla version?

Of course it will . As a marvel fan I will have no problem declaring CW a dissapointment if it does below 1.2 billion .

 

Ya lost your minds.

I always thought seeing these characters together would lead to a front loaded OW. Just not this front loaded. Reviews and WOM didn't help.

I never thought I would live in a world, where Saw 1, Saw 2, Saw 3 and Saw 6 got better RT scores than Batman vs Superman.

 

By the way, I loved the Saw series.

There were quite a few on here (non fanboys) who saw this having crummy legs pre release. Can't remember anyone credible arguing for a less than 2 multiplier. This likely isn't beating Superman 2 and/or Batman Returns adjusted after opening to $166m lol. Enough said.

There's something douchey about Affleck. There's a reason he was perfect casting for such an unlikable role in Gone Girl.

After all his most memetic line ever is "Applesauce bitch".

He has a lot of mental issues.

I was one of the first to see it. I'm very lenient on comic book films but I knew right away this wasn't for everyone.

 

With that said, 900M WW isn't what WB wanted but I'm sure they will take it.

ED can we stop with the "WB will take it" nonsense? Every person knew this was going to gross some huge number. If it didn't can you imagine the panic? The point is the legs post the global opening have to worry WB when they are trying to build a whole universe off of it.

Consolation prize.

Today #BvS cracks $750M global & will pass #XMen DOFP & #Deadpool. Will surpass #GuardiansOfTheGalaxy on SUN.

Well they're not making moves because it's still making money. This movie needed to completely tank for a change.

It was never going to tank to the level this movie wasn't profitable, that's my frustration with that argument. Expectations & profitability are two completely different angles to the story.

Hey y'all BvS is going to surpass what my expectations were for the movie pre- release. That should be considered a win right

Especially considering the unjustified attacks on it. Could have tanked after the first week. I think this is what sadflek thought was happening.

 

If this was a chess game, one side got overly aggressive trying to take out the king. They failed. Now they are panicking.
