I've had some skepticism about this movie... I knew it would be good and a critical darling but it success I was unsure.

After seeing the trailer now, I'm sure this going good for WB. It's December release date is the one giving me the biggest confidence. It's a movie primed for holiday audiences and not much competition this December asides from fellow WB movies.

Timothee looks good.

I'm not even scared for The Batman. Scratch that, I initially thought you were talking about the Reeves movie.

He'd have a good to great script especially with Gunn spearheading things. Getting those first movies right is paramount. Since we're not focusing on Batman's first years we good. Especially with the Batfamily in tow.
I'm not so bothered. It's the writers name I wanna see first.

After watching all the trailers for WB upcoming slate (except Aquaman 2) I'm sure WB will bounce back this year at the box office.

It's gonna be a surprising come back story starting with Barbie.

My predictions for WB H2:

Barbie looks like $550-750mn with it's buzz and excitement.
Blue Beetle WILL DO Better than Flash. ~ I see $350-450mn
Meg 2. = $450mn-550mn
Aquaman 2 β€” around $600mn+
Wonka = $280-350mn it's a wildcard.
The Color Purple β€” under $170mn worldwide. Unpredictable for now, might do well or bad based on recent audience preferences.
The Nun 2 β€” $300mn+
Dune 2 β€” over $600mn for now. Possibly hitting $700mn+.

How do people live with such cognitive dissonance?

You don't want movies at the cinema. You wait for it to come out 3 months later.

But you somehow want to judge a movie's box office that is decided closely after one month of release.

Across the spiderverse will be out on DVD and download in September, yet one clown who is waiting to pirate it in that September will be chatting nonsense about box office.

Thunder fire you and box office. Box office kee you there

How is it going to be funny??
It's DC's highest grossing film ever unadjusted for inflation. πŸ€”πŸ€” It has a way of defying odds.
It's release date is perfect for me, not much competition and it seems to be the only TRUE blockbuster epic available for Xmas through new year's.
That's why I'm rating it that high even if the film ends up poorly received critically. It smells like Super Mario Bros defiance.

Or you're thinking about the crap rumours about it being poorly received in screenings.
NB: Screentest are just that. You can perform beautifully in screen audiences and become woeful in real theatrical audience. Ie Flash.

Make we dey observe sha.

You have been singing it would flop since December last year. While I have been the opposite and defended the project from day one.
You only just started changing your stance when you heard about it's budget this July and you saw it's hype. 🀑🀑

I need explanations as to why DC let Snyder go.

His movies are always top notch and 3hrs plus.

I said Barbie won't flop after I got better understanding of its production and budget...

Using a January post that has been contradicted by later posts make no sense...

Once I got wind of more information regarding Barbie, I corrected my earlier opinion

If the movie retains the same formula that worked for the first like getting the entertainment part right, great CGI and decent story, then it's a home run. It might underperform depending on the budget but it would do well at the box office.

So far, there's no big blockbuster competition for AQ2. I feel it'd be a Star Wars: TROS β€” hated by critics and fans but a box office juggernaut cos of the franchise and really no BIG competition in December. Its holiday season so it's chances is higher since peeps have no option than to take their family out for some viewings. Kids who liked the first one would be back also.

AQ2 has way lesser competition this December than when the original came out that some analyst were predicting it'd be devoured in the box office by the competition. We all know how it went.

It's wait and see sha.... Unless the movie is somewhat damn atrocious like Black Adam levels that I see it flopping hard.

SOZINN:






I didn't know you two were capable of putting down the use of unwarranted hostility or insults during banter on this thread. Your contributions would have impressed me if they hadn't been so reeked of disgusting hypocrisy. Your opinions are really worthless because you pick and choose which "similar cases" to encourage and which to disapprove of.

I'm quite surprised you didn't easily join the conversation, yelling "vawulence", "vawulence" to stoke the flames. Could it be that this scenario is not one of those cases where you enjoy the same display of aggression and use of jibe? Go sit down and shove your opinion down your butthole because I see through your bullshit.

Damn!

I always knew you were a CLOWN 🀑 now you've added comprehension problems to the resume; so lemme point it out incase you missed it. I said in the post you quoted "you only started changing your stance when you saw it's budget and industry projections for the movie"...

You admitting it'd be successful a week ago and pretending as if that was you initial stance means shΓ―t when you've always maintained it'd flop since December. πŸ€‘πŸ€‘πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ It only confirms your CLOWNERY.


LMFAO...
You see how you're even making yourself be a bigger Clown. It took you till July to know it's going to be successful before changing mouth.
That's how you always are, when caught lying or slapped with hard evidence you start to pivot sideways to avoid your L.


Your fellow naysayers like SOZINN and Phronesis also said it'd flop. After learning it'd be successful regardless, they respectfully collected their L like a man... But you wan dey form AGBA for wetin you dey shout flop since last year despite not knowing shΓ―t about what the movie is about.
You see how stupid you sound.

He did a pretty decent job with the flash so there is no doubt about his storytelling, I’m just afraid people will compare to Matt Reeves’ own
