So are other studios gonna slow their rolls on funny book movies after this or is it gonna take Dark Phoenix bombing first?

Good 'funny book movies' did better than normal this year.

I think kids will enjoy Justice League a lot more than BVS. 

 

The story is easy to follow, it’s quickly paced and shorter. 

 

Shame about the opening numbers. Hopefully it at least gets to $100m.

and those that actually watched his show.  He's not just a meme  

Of course, hence why I said "Only those who don't know memes"

Yeah and I liked all of them up til a certain one I saw yesterday. But once we've hit 10+ in a single year they gotta chill a bit

There are 8 superhero movies next year, and I am not even counting the animated ones, which make it 10 then.

Plus Warner has announced 15 of them for the next 3 or 4 years.

 

 

In Development NOT announced! 1/3 or half of them are not going to get made.

Ragnarok has been slapped in the face but releasing these two movies so close to each other was always a stupid decision to begin with.

Ragnarok got slapped.

 

JL got this treatment:

Using the words Superhero Fatigue should take away 100 likes from your BOT account.

 

I wish it was a real thing.

I only need Black Panther to do well. 

 

The rest can do whatever.

Do you include the Star Wars ?

We need to settle that debate once and for all.

Yes, The Dark Knight stomped Hellboy 2's soul (@ddddeeee)

I did have the thought when watching JL yesterday that it felt like it was made with 7-11 year olds in mind.

Star Wars is YA

I remember the good 'ole days when we all freaked out about Iron Man 3 opening to $128M. Now look at where we're at.

Hellboy 2 opened one week before TDK - it fell 70% on its 2nd weekend. 

[TwoMisfits]

So, this was my predict earlier this week - c'mon The Star, give me 2 out of 3, so I can be happy even while blowing the biggest pick:)...

 

"How's about...

Justice League - above almost everyone's predicts so far (sorry, going over $172M would be tough knowing people will hold for the holiday, but let's go with $150M+ for optimism:)...

Wonder - above everyone's predicts so far (or above $20M)

The Star - above everyone's predicts so far (or above $13.5M)

 

This post is "screw all the tracking...let's see some optimism for premier family movies" - we haven't had any good ones in SO long (unless Thor counts...which I guess it kinda does:)..."

 

Although I guess critics didn't end up agreeing about all 3 being good:)...

YES GO WONDER! MY BOY JACOB TREMBLAY SLAYING!! 

 

I saw him earlier this year in Vancouver. Such a cute, and really down to earth kid. Hopefully his career skyrockets after this, and he doesn't go the way of Lohan/Loyd.

Which adjusts to like 150 and it didn't have 3d. It would be like JL making 165 this weekend instead of 90. 

[The Futurist]

DC/Warner must release more Superman/Batman films already.

Always Produce excellent OW threads on BOT.

Can 't these two get mad at each other again for a stupid reason ?
