Rate them...

In the comics, Adrian Chase (Vigilante) has a Healing factor, ergo, the only Metahumans up there are Vigilante and Deathstroke.

It would be:

1. Deathstroke

2. Vigilante

3. Bloodsport

4. Deathshot
Deadshot
Deathstroke

Arrange the remaining two anyhow you want..

if there is a Gadot led film and a Scarjo led film showing at the same time tomorrow which one do you think people would troop into watch?
Dunno, maybe Gal. grin


They are not necessarily proven box office wise, so it's a tough sale. Maybe my bias tho. cheesy
In terms of their projects various factors usually comes into play. Not something just simple.

What does you not knowing the movies mentioned have to do with what they stand for....You also said you didn't know Cavill prior to DC...
Taika Waititi being a big name director is debatable, while he's quite popular, I doubt he's in that elite number of directors that can sell projects with just their names..

As for Ghost in the shell being a flop, she opened a movie likewise so many other stars opening movies and sometimes, they flop..
You wanted me to list her projects and I did, go watch them to determine how good or bad they are....

This argument is because you somehow included Robbie and Gal in a conversation with ScarJo, they can be considered when they both earn stars in Hollywood..
Me stating when I knew some actors necessarily doesn't mean they ain't popular back then. I just mentioned it in passing.
Yep. Back then my genre of movies wasn't all encompassing as of now. Besides I was a kid.

Also, we are discussing movies or TV box office performance or success in relation to the stars. Not how good or bad a movie was. undecided Moreover, if I had the chance I'd watch most of the aforementioned artists work.

Taika isn't the big block buster director or actor but a reputable auteur artist. Not everyone's name gonna be associated with big mega success, but there are some people who their work speaks for them and will have the audience attention. undecided

Wonder when Taika became a Box office draw to say JOJO made bank because he played Hitler.....

Also, most of the movies I listed did well B.O wise...

Nope. It just means they're now in the spotlight, and if done right, we may end up getting a JL vs suicide squad movie or a Cadmus storyline with Waller trying to take down the JL alongside some corrupt politicians. I mean, peace maker could be setting up some interesting storyline ahead.
But the thing is, Suicide Squad was meant to be a secret program, so how will that be possible if they're public considering the controversies, both International and national, that will cause.

Besides, doesn't that rule out the objective of the Suicide Squad, which is to carry out dirty operations for the US government?

For me, I think, they'll only be rebranded. For the meantime, the govt will put a stop to it but when the need for who to carry out their dirty jobs arises, they will have no choice but to revive it but under another monicker for e.g, like a special ops Dept of ARGUS, with Amanda Waller of course in charge
Or
The US govt will just deny and cover up the allegations
Or
The Flashpoint might erase that particular event, I'm not talking about the entire Peacemaker event but that particular Task Force X exposure event.

Who knows, till post Flashpoint or then but there's a lot of possibilities.

Exactly. He chewed up every scene. His quips are hilarious.

Considering that Freddie Stroma wasn't even the first choice, he did an outstanding job portraying Peacemaker's version of Vigilante.
When I heard he replaced someone who had already filmed almost 80% of his role, I was concerned.
But Stroma really put in the work and delivered thy lord's work. I look forward to more Vigilante and possibly more of Stroma.
Big ups to Gunn.

Those him replies gives u serious wtf moments. You'll be short for words. grin grin He really brought a new dynamic to the show. Dude was unpredictably stupid.

This thing has happened before in the comics. It's a progression. The government will deny it or throw Waller to the bus but Task force x will still go on. They are the government's puppet. They might end up calling them checkmate but with superheroes on it's list ( superheroes created by the government)
It could go either ways but I know for sure that task force x will be back.

Henry Cavill is an A-list Star alright. undecided
There are different kind of A-list artists. Some who are huge box office draws and some who their talent, works and reputation defines them. And there are some, the dying breed who got all specs.

Just like the Demon Slayer TV show, I'll divide it thus: Upper Class A-list & Lower Class A-list. Cavill belongs to the later.

The Witcher is a BIG franchise. You might not know it before u saw Cavill but it is. It's like saying Game of Thrones won't be big enough to sell itself if Cavill didn't join. It will be big nonetheless so far it's done well, over a period of time. That was how GOT built itself even tho literally everyone was an unknown back then.

The Witcher already had a substantial fantasy following with the books. The gaming audience already made it way more popular and successful.
So no. Whether Cavill was in it or not it would still be BIG eventually. His appearance serves as a plus and big promotion but not the sole cause of its success.
GOT had some top draws when it started though. You can't compare it with Legend of the seeker. LOTS had a big fan base with the sword of truth books but couldn't get into the market cause it hadn't a star power. Yes, I agree the Witcher is big franchise with the games and books, but do you think it will have same success it has now if the lead was an unknown along with it's supporting cast? Cavill is what attracts and keeps audience, Lord of the rings may not have done well had A lists not being in it.
Do you know that there are popular franchise with big fan base that end up not doing well cause they don't have that star pull? Check Death note.
How to get away with murder, may not have been that much famous had Viola Davis and some stars not been in it.

Bro, na Scarjo. No doubt about it. Gadot can't hold a franchise on her own yet, with her being the only star in it. She sure would pull an audience but if she's to compete against Johanson, she will crash in the box office. But things can change after some years.
