Be honest with yourself.

By Marvel's 7th movie they already had box office smashes like Iron Man 1, 2 and 3, the Avengers.
Even subpar movies like the Incredible Hulk managed nearly $300 million at the box office. The first Thor movie made above $450 million. All before 2013.

What is DC doing? Going around half-baked stories and banking on the popularity of the characters alone to drive the movie, barring Aquaman and Wonder Woman. In spite of having the benefit of the blueprint set by Marvel for super hero flicks,

Guy, I grew up on mostly DC, but the truth is that they have a very long way to go to be better than Marvel if what we are seeing is a barometer.
Marvel owns the superhero genre. Unless they piss it away, it's hardly likely DC will overtake them on sheer strength alone.

Justice League and the two Superman movies were a torrid disgrace. Just the facts. Batman vs Superman was a pile of insufferable $hit that I never want to go near ever again. They can't even maintain continuity by keeping the same actors for the same lead characters, yet they want us to keep interest in their movies.

I daresay that Wonder Woman was driven by sexist pro-female agenda, and Aquaman apparently looks to be the best of all the movies. The rest (Shazam et al) are just subpar.

Besides, Marvel has been clocking the $1billion the Avengers in 2012. No be today. The Phase three Movies have made at least $800 million except Doctor Strange which did $667 million). Phase Three started from 2016. Let me not get to Black Panther and Infinity war.
those superman movies ehnnnn o lawd grin superman vs batman utter crap man of steel slept through it all very boring even Wonder Woman was a little overhyped but had feminist push justice league was a knockoff of avengers not a bad one but light-years away shazam which was actually good but if was a Marvel movie would have gone very far the only DC movie worth it is aquaman but my last hope for DC is the joker movie I believe that their is no way to possibly mess that up but that was what I said for batman vs super man that joker movie ehhhn it must bang or else

Hahahahahahaha grin grin grin grin grin... Go and do your research well brother. Justice League was flopped by Avengers director, Joss Whedon after he cut many scenes and turned a 2hr 45min movie to a 1hr 48min movie. Aquaman grossed $1.022B. And by the way, there's NO DC movie grossing less than $600M. Go and research brother.
Avengers directors not director, are the Russo brothers

The Spiderman change was done after Marvel Studios and Fox agreed for Spiderman to appear in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
And Spiderman: Homecoming was actually a reboot, a fresh start telling the Peter Parker story from Captain America: Civil War.

You are correct though.

The Justice League that was supposedly their answer to the Avengers was a massive failure by all accounts and expectations.

DC comic books may be better but Marvel owns the Superhero genre by an Asgaardian Mile. And on Lockdown as well.


Sony not fox

a grown man being an Avengers fan is still sad. Though watching the movie is not quite as bad as collecting comic books.
Then what would you say about those who invented the comic books franchise.Voice overs for cartoons are earning a living, those that make the animation are earning, the western world have shown us that an economy of a country is not tied to being a Doctor, lawyer or oil worker. Even Dora the explorer (kids animation)is a bestseller among children animation.

We learn everyday and today I am going to open your eyes so you finally know how blind you are. Question number one- What is the nominal GDP of lagos state? The strength of economy globally is calcutated in nominally GDP while the standard of living in any given place is calculated per capita income. Now answer my question, before i proceed.

What a record in just five days, what it took infinity wars 11 days to reach. I knew it will perform well, probably pass titanic, but it can never pass avatar, that film is legendary. I remember when I started reading comics, people who saw me back then make fun of me that at my age I still read comics, now the same people will queue to watch end game, please o, what is the difference?
avatar didn't make up to $3bn na. Why can Endgame not overtake it?

avatar made $2.9 billion not because it was the best movie ever made but because of the technology used then, which was kind of new in the movie industry. Endgame has done nothing special so I doubt it will get to $2.9. Although I am kind of rooting for it too. Only a movie that Is out of this world and innovative can break that record

It would have been more astonishing if Marvel and Paramount pictures had come together and done a Avengers and Transformers combo where Optimus Prime and Bumble bee with other selected autobots would join in the fight to save the universe.

it's all about the hype, man. Hype your movie enough before it is released and people would pay money to see if it's worth the hype.

Avatar benefited from some smart pre-release marketing. Besides the ahead-of-its-time effects, there was really nothing special about the movie. The storyline wasn't even entirely an original.

With the hype generated since Infinity Wars, I believe Endgame would reach $3bn. This debut record is just the beginning.

those are professionals doing their job, nothing wrong with that. They are making content for Kiddies not for grown men.

Sorry dude your eye don already begin clear so I wont waste anymore time on you. Lagos economy in 2019 at over $140billion is bigger than the economy of 18 states in the United Stated and in another 15yrs will be bigger than 35 states in America.

It's not our fault your low IQ couldn't absorb it's very essence.
But that's the truth, it was just an overhyped movie maybe because of the way the infinity wars ended (so every one wanted to see what'd happen would Thanos be killed, would those who vanished what were their fates).
TBVH, infinity wars is the best Avengers movie by far, every scene was a hit back to back. I prefer the Age of Ultron (Lokey) to this #endgame.
A movie with 2 hours of story and 43mins rare action is really overrated. I believe if Stan Lee was alive, this movie would have been more action packed like we saw on the other avengers.
Well it's a win-win for the Russo brothers, they don hammer.
