2025 can’t come soon enough! I’m scared for Blue Beetle though… if The Flash is struggling this much then Jaime has no chance.

At least people are talking about the movie!

In total seriousness, they have made a helluva crowd pleaser of a film, marketing's been strong, release date is strong...I think we are we going to see a much better performance than some here expect on opening, and will see solid legs as well. 

 

It will be kind of amusing if the film is ultimately too popular to outright move on from, but not obviously successful to instantly green light another film.

Let's put actual numbers on the bold part. I'm thinking 175 DOM + 220 OS.

Uneven and messy in the third act, but I really dug it. Even got emotional at some parts, too. Solid 7 out of 10.

The ceiling is like 70m OW and excellent legs for 250m total and like 550m worldwide if audience reception is actually that good. Don't think it will get that high though.

Just got out. It's unusual for me to go opening night, but I was really hyped for this and I needed to get it out of my system. I had a blast with this one. I already can't wait to see it again with the family. I actually thought the third act was a different turn in a live action comic film. The CGI does get terrifying sometimes lol. People keep talking about the baby scene and a certain scene in the third act, but what really terrified me was Zod. There's a couple moments his face was full CGI and it didn't look like Shannon at all lol. That scared the hell out of me more than any other scene lol. 

 

I'm definitely going go see it again this weekend.

I can't see it having those kind of legs, though. I think 180 Million domestic.

I think 450 Million all in is the best realistic scenario. At least WB will get it's money back.

Vaviery reporting that whatever happens with the Flash, Gunn and Safren have faith in Muschetti, he is going to helm "The Brave And The Bold" Batman movie.

Now I remember why I don't trust Gunn as a studio head/producer.

[dudalb]

God, I just thought of a irony ;

In IT Part One..the movie that made Muschetti a A list director.., which is set in 1989, one of the movies playing in the town movie theater is the Michael Keaton "Batman",.

China opens with 9.4 Maoyan score with 3000 votes.

If that maintains, that is A+ / high A level on par with Spiderverse and higher than Transformers and GOTG3

But will that transfer to "fannies in the seats"?

And the early audiences are filled with fans who are predisposed to like a film.

Odds are increasing that the films final reception will difficult to determine as the grosses will be unimpressive but the quantifiable audience feedback will be quite good.

You referring to Maoyan score? Maoyan is the largest ticketing site in China and people will see the score of each film before purchasing tickets... So there is definitely impact.

Flash needs this type of narrative change. If the initial wave of PR is going to be that its opening is decidedly MEH, following up with audience grades that are good/great is a nice supply of fuel in their tanks.
