The Flash and The Marvels are only a week apart from each other. I also feel like one of either Indy 5 or Black Adam has to move to the first weekend of August, because it just seems like a strange move for both films to come out the same day.

There don’t seem to be very many other places to move the Flash movie to. I guess they could try September, but that would give them less time for post-production.

I would not worry about the competition. if the movies is really good then markets can handle multiple movies. there are enough pieces to hype up a flash movie. Especially if Cavill also makes a cameo. I would also love to see some lantern even if they dont reveal who the actor is. 

[XXR vs XXR]

$70-90M opening for this, and about $180-240M domestic run. 

WW numbers will be like AM&TW.

You could see that the director of IT has directed this. Same aesthetics. Very nice teaser.

[lorddemaxus]

I'm sorry but this looks like a fan-film. The It movies looked more cinematic than this.

[belblazer]

A 3 min trailer for this with The Batman in March = perfection.

Dunno with the presence of Keaton's Batman plus the story seemingly being massive with multiple heroes AM&TW numbers would be a bit disappointing no?

 

Then again the release date with The Marvels is not helping itself (what's up with WB and these weird release dates for their DCEU films)

I'll admit I could be misreading this, but I don't see this being very big at all. I don't think Keaton being in it will help turn it into some kind of monster.

In the case of this movie, it was scheduled for November before The Marvels.

I don't think you're misreading the current levels of hype (seriously all the talk has been Keaton and nothing else) but maybe that's not what WB's intent is for this film since it supposedly will have a large impact on the overall DCEU

I would be avoiding this like the plague if not for Keaton.

 

Two Ezra Millers? One is horrible enough.

Supposedly there's other DC heroes in the movie as well outside of Keaton, Batfleck & Supergirl. If they tease/show them in future promos then I think it'll be pretty big

[John Marston]

Keatons Batman will not be a draw. Bale is the  Batman everyone loves. Keaton was overshadowed by the villains

Keaton’s Batman is big with people of a certain age group. 

[Lion Roar]

Why does Ezra Miller's hair look terrible for both versions of Flash? I still don't like his interpretation of the character, but I am intrigued by Keaton's return. Too bad Michelle Pfeiffer is not in this, would have loved to see her Catwoman again.

All of those opened at the lower end of expectations. WOM and reviews hadn't kicked in yet.

Really? Huh. Can't say I followed any of those close enough to know what their potential was compared to what they actually made at the box office. So even the Twilight and Hunger Games movies could have done more on a different date??

Twilight was earlier, but HG and JL, FB etc - yes.
