creed 3 is mostly getting 7/10 reviews; flash might be good for a superhero movie, but nothing ive seen or read makes me think itll be a masterpiece or anything like that

What do reviews have to do with test screenings?

Has anyone said this is a masterpiece? Maybe @ViewerAnoncan correct me if I’m wrong but I believe all that was said was it was DC best tested movie since the dark knight, not that it’s as good as the dark knight or anything. I think it was just a crowd pleaser and that’s probably why the movie tested well and WB is confident. Maybe some sites have ran some BS articles but all I remember reading is WB is confident in this and it has tested well.

might have gotten punked by the "best dc movie ever" some sites were running with

 

Didn't James Gunn say in his announcement video that its one of the best comic book movies ever made?

Blame Gunn, my friend — Blame Gunn.

 

("one of the best" ≠ "better than Dark Knight", mind)

((Game of Telephone at its finest, really))

Nah, this marketing/Word of Mouth push has been floating around the Flash since Ezra Miller was constantly getting into trouble a year ago.

Yes but that doesn’t mean it’s better than TDK, or maybe he doesn’t think TDK is that good lol.

I don't like doing comparisons like that for a couple reasons: outside of rare cases we don't have access to the actual scores, just the opinions of people who've seen the cut; and how in the world can someone compare THE FLASH to THE DARK KNIGHT when they're so tonally different?

THE FLASH tested very well, I'm confident in saying that. But how that compares to every other DC movie that's tested in the last decade, I'm not sure. I wish I had all that data.

I love Gunn, but the cynic in me says with that big an investment on the line, for DC  what the hell do you expect him to say?

hasnt the movie changed quite a bit between test screenings?

Uh,k that is why they have test screenings.

Don't confuse test screening with "preview" screenings,whihc are made after a film is "locked" to generate publicty and buzz,

[WittyUsername]

How exactly does Creed III getting mostly positive reviews say anything about how people will respond to The Flash?

How often have you seen an executive say something similar to what Gunn said? Also, if he's just pumping it up, why not do it for Shazam 2, Aquaman 2, Blue Beetle?

Gunn clearly went an extra mile with his Flash praise. Its noteworthy 100%. This isn't The Rock saying BA will change films forever.

Imagine if the movie isn’t even all that after all the hype

Imagine if it is though. Seems like a lot of people rooting for it to be bad, what if it actually lives up to the hype?

Remember the movies budget apparently ballooned to 300m budget so this needs to make a shit ton of money to be successful. It makes sense they are hyping this up as much as possible

I can’t see it making $300m domestic, but considering I assumed this would be the easiest and biggest bomb of the year before the trailer dropped, it could still end up doing decently and saving face.

DC is gonna be rebooted anyway so who cares if it’s gonna be a hit or not.

 

Anyway no one cares about Miller’s Flash.

If it’s not a hit, that won’t be good for WBD’s bottom line. They’re in massive debt right now.
