Absolutely No Spoilers, no matter how vague even under spoiler tags. This applies to all movies currently in theatres and streaming shows that are releasing/recently released. 
 

No Fanboy Wars. Comparisons are OK but do not troll. Use the report button rather than engaging a troll.

Yep. A multiplier of 1,8-2,0 is coming

Were there no test screenings with focus groups for this movie? I simply can't believe they didn't know the film was awful prior to the disastrous screening in Venice.

At least The Flash and The Marvels are fresh. We hit new lows every year is what it feels like, what will next year bring us? 

[Grebacio]

Well at the very least no one will ask to include Phoenix Joker on Reeves nor Gunn universem

I generally don’t put a lot into RT audience scores, but good lord. I definitely don’t think 50M is happening this weekend. 45M is probably out of the picture too.

The fan reactions painting this as a horrid movie in every way are baffling to me. Honestly this is just proof that the general audience just only wants CBMs to be there for fan service and escapism anymore. Don’t even try to do something outside the box.

If it's verified, why wouldn't you?

Yeah, I expected disaster but I liked it. Not perfect but solid and interesting. Better than any Marvel movie I've seen in years (I use the word movie loosely and generously).

I don't think you can say this when the RT score is in the 30s. It's not just audiences rejecting it, it's critics too. That's not even in like divisive or negative leaning on divisive range.

General audiences are idiots - see year's highest grossing live action "movie."

Moderation

 

Hi. No Fanboy Wars. ZeeSoh said so. Do this nonsense again and you’re getting a thread ban. Your choice.

Critics pan most DC movies. I just don’t see how a movie with great acting, cinematography, some clever ideas and well executed musical numbers can be getting panned to this degree. Critics are supposed to give artists a bit of room if they try something new writhing a stale genre I thought. No goodwill is being afforded to this movie. 

[ListenHunnyUrOver]

Welp. I just hope this doesn’t impact Gaga’s acting career too much. Joaquin might take the biggest hit due to his unprofessional behavior earlier this year. 

[Yollten]

Looking at the popcorn metre, this has to be a chance of hitting an F CinemaScore yeah?
