It failed the 4B club, and the domestic gross couodn’t even beat the biggest movie of that same year by a measly 35% Edited February 8, 2020 by Arendelle Legion 4 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except Robbie specifically pitched a "Harley and her Girl Squad kick ass!!!" project to WB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May be they shall incorporate Disney castle in far background when lights & drum roll starts in logo. You won't get a Disney vibe here. It's a label for their mature contents like that upcoming medieval rape movie from Damon and Affleck. There's also no Disney vibe in the logos of Marvel Studios and Lucasfilm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marveldcfox Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 I hate to say this, but so far this year all female led movies seem to be flopping. In my country India, two local films starring A list female actors flopped at box office even after getting good reviews. The rhythm section and now BOP in Hollywood seem to be the new casualties. Makes you wonder... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd agree with this if not for the ending. A follow up scene showing Clark agonising over Zod's death, and then a sequence showing him help rebuild Metropolis would have made it perfect in my book.

Madhuvan Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Indian audience don't care much about female lead movies anyway. Most of them flop. Very few female-led movies get success in India. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OncomingStorm93 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 I haven't seen the movie, but plan to in the coming weeks. My main question right now is why did this have to be rated R? Were drugs and cursing that essential to the film, that the film couldn't have survived without those elements? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlie Jatinder Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 21 minutes ago, Madhuvan said: Very few female-led movies get success in India. The one that are sold on sex-appeal or big budget. This piece, 2 years ago. Spoiler Heroine oriented films have always found it difficult to take big openings in India. When you look at the ₹10 crore opening day grossers at all India level, you are just left with six films. Dirty Picture, Jism 2, Ragini MMS 2, Tanu Weds Manu Returns, Dear Zindagi and Rudhramadevi to name them. Out of these six films, one was a sequel to earlier popular film, the other two had the presence of top stars in special roles while the other three had sex selling them. Breaking this myth a film has made into the ₹10 crore opening day club for the first time in the form of Bhaagamathie without any of these so called factors. Anushka Shetty is one heroine down south who has earned a following of her own and her presence in Baahubali franchise has added to it. The horror thriller grossed ₹10.88 crore on its opening day in India. It grossed ₹7.68 crore from Telugu states while Karnataka and North India contributed around ₹1.15 crore. The Tamil dub version of the film also managed to bring respectable figures from Tamil Nadu and Kerala with a cume of ₹2.05 crore. Following are the Top 10 Opening Day Grossers for Female Oriented Films. The Dirty picture : ₹12.90 Crores Rudramadevi : ₹12.40 Crores Dear Zindagi : ₹11.75 Crores Tanu Weds Manu Returns : ₹11.73 Crores Bhagamathie : ₹10.88 Crores Ragini MMS 2 : ₹10.75 Crores Jism 2 : ₹10.09 Crores Mary Kom : ₹9.95cr Crores Heroine : ₹9.35 Crores Piku : ₹7.12 Crores 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
