IbrahimMav: Not really underestimated The Batman. I have been campaigning here for a long time for it hitting a billion. It was that annoying WarnerMedia useless CEO with his stupid decision that kneecapped that movie. Thor 4 is a sequel to a successful trilogy. The Batman is a start-up movie in a different Universe asides from another Batman parading in the DCEU. Then there's still talk of another Batman — Michael Keaton's. You can't really compare a sequel to an origin movie. Also, Thor is a recognizable character as well as Batman and also has Cinematic Universe behind it. The Batman didn't have that. The only reason The Batman didn't gross way above that gross or hit 1bn is because of Jason Kilar's questionable decision to put it on streaming in 45days. What makes it the more annoying is ppl already knew it would hit streaming in 45days way before the movie even premiered. |

abduleez1:Ah well, time will tell. If Thor, Love and Nonsense can gross above 600 million ahn ahn Bros you sef think am now. Sentiment is what always drive Marvel movies most of the times, and I believe it might work for them again. |

abduleez1: it didn't make an impression probably. For a slasher horror it took awhile for things to really kick off. So I understand why it might not be everyone's cup of tea. |

AnfieldFan: Yep, I'm aware 7Bucks was a production company to it. Still doesn't mean anything. Other DC movies also have multiple production companies working on them. In fact many movies has this. There's no inflating any budget. His production company was definitely going to join from the start. I knew that even before movie started shooting sef. Simply put, The Rock was given too much leverage and free hand to determine how the movie go. I like Gunn being in charge and putting him in his place. Dude was just mouthing off "The hierarchy of power is about to change" without changing the hierarchy of writers. Now I ain't even motivated to see the movie in theatres. Johnson earned a fat pay of $30mn as an actor and would still get other gratuity since he's a producer as well. I think they just increased the budget cos it's the Rock and assuming he'd make big bucks as well as wanting to please him. It's now clearly evident in today's era, only a top actor can't sell a movie. His disgust for Shazam is also funny. I'm somewhat weirdly happy his movie ain't all that and he'd have to cooperate with Shazam no matter what. His priority should be facing Shazam first before Supes. |

ShaqFu: How you people seem to forget Avatar 2 is just 4 weeks away just like Wakanda Forever to Black Adam. Thor 4 is a fourth movie installment. It definitely won't just evaporate bro. Even the wildly panned Thor 2 — The Dark World still had almost $600mn. So there's no way Thor 4 was gonna flop. If BP had all the time to itself, maybe. But December has big movie competition. So no, no billion dollars for it. |

Beorn: That man Jason Kilar should've been tried in a law court for undermining the movie. Imagine Batman not hitting at least $400mn in US box office. He undercut all WB movies just to propel HBOMax. The only reason I'm happy with Zaslav for stopping that nonsense. |

abduleez1: That movie needed all the money it could get bruh, CGI has to be on point. 200m was okay. You should be blaming all the unfair criticism it's been receiving, word of mouth was too poor for no reason. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by pu7pl3(m): 5:37pm On Nov 14, 2022 |
abduleez1: He can still face both of them at the same time bruh... The writers did nothing wrong, this was exactly how a first black Adam movie should have panned out storywise. You should go and see it for yourself before judging. |

pu7pl3: I still think $150mn is more than enough to do anything they want in that movie. Aquaman was around $175mn, while Wonder Woman was $150mn. Look at Dune's budget. If that movie could do all that visual feast for $165mn even with that humongous top A-List cast and also earning academy awards and nominations for its visuals, costume and design; then Black Adam had no reason to be as big as a tentpole DC movie. Not for a relatively unknown character and a first movie. You expect critics to give BA a Dwayne Johnson DC flick a favourable rating when Black Panther was 3 weeks away? If Thor: Love and Nonsense could get around 60% RT score, then you'd see how bias these w@nkers can be. Most of the reviews you'd see it's just pure vitriol and hate they spewing and not anything to do with professional criticism. With that inconsistent rating I think critics identities should be made very public... I ain't talking about the few popular ones. So they can come and defend their opinions online. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

pu7pl3: Aight. I go hold my thoughts first till I see the movie. I hear from scoopers Dwayne isn't characteristically happy to be much associated with Shazam. Man just focused on facing Supes. It's actually funny cos Shazam is the character he should be more importantly focusing on. I hear a Black Adam 2 script is already finished sef. What leads credence to some of this is that man hasn't even acknowledged Shazam. It's more like Shazam is in a pocket universe. 1 Like 1 Share |

abduleez1: COVID may have something to do with the big budget....That is, if it was indeed filmed during COVID Batman originally had a 100m budget, COVID came and the budget rose to $200m |

BlackManta: Black Adam wasn't filmed in the height of COVID. The Batman was and to an extent The Flash. The Batman was right in the eye of the storm. Batman was supposed to release in 2021. |

I really enjoyed the trilogy while I was a kid. Wonder how Hollywood hasn't mapped this one for milking all these years. Greta is a remarkable director so she's greatly trusted.
