You were making good points till you lost me bruh,...nobody is scrapping anything and starting over with pattingson's universe
duuuh, i hate to say i told u so.

Joker's popularity isn't restricted to comic readers though. He's waaaaay more mainstream than Lex Luthor it's not even fair.
The rest, i could agree with.
yeah, that was why superman films made a billi0n dollars at the box office with a pg 13 rating.

You've just made my point. You can make the research. The highlighted is exactly the reason why Marvel ruled the Silver Age, why there was a "Marvel Age Of Comics". All DC did was revamp their golden age characters like Flash in 1956. Quality wise, Marvel stomped. You can check it anywhere
oga, marvel didn't rule the silver age. Dc spearheaded it bt marvel found its formulae to take advantage of c0mic rise then. It was like trying to find ur way while the big guns were hitting big.

I support you on this. WB should consider a solo Luthor film.
bro, a Luthor film if d0ne right would make m0ney and be classic. It'd be like the rise and c0nquest over metropolis. Lex would be a hero in it, a philantropist.

Yes. Adjusted for inflation, they did

No one is arguing who spearheaded the Silver Age. We're arguing who was more prominent in terms of content. Without Marvel, there would have probably still been a Silver Age but it won't have been as vibrant. Do some research. DC's Silver Age was riddled with gimmicks: Apes, ridiculous plots/covers, one-dimensional characters. Marvel was more vibrant and innovative with flawed and relatable characters, mature story arcs that dealt with real world issues like gun violence and alcoholism, not to mention Stan Lee and his handling of the Marvel comics with the funny intros, nicknames for the staff. Marvel just felt more interactive. Meanwhile, Batman and his crew were in full camp swing grin. Marvel outselling DC up until the 90s even when bankrupt just proves my point more.

how c0me inflati0n weren't adjusted at the time of it's debut. Or how a n0 name team would outgross superman films at the initial release. Mtchewww. Go and sit down. You're exhaustd.

You need to meet more intellectualy interesting people. People that have deep and articulate discussions and argument. We've been discussing Joker down here so much, they've just about spoilt the movie for me.
You think Joker is your basic MCU flick with cheesy one-liners and flamboyant action sequences.
see who is talking about intellect, if u read and assimilated well and not just jump on ur fanboy wagon, u will have seen I specifically said has he discussed abt it with anyone else aside here, just bcus i don't comment much doesn't mean I don't follow the thread here.

And oga not every argument is abt DC vs Marvel.

End game had so much buzz a particular bank took advantage of it by promoting their verve card, and gave discount on movie ticket for it using verve, same buzz was on lionking remake.

So don't just assume u are the only one having intellectual discussion.

I think my question to him was clear enuf, joker have been out for 6weeks have u discussed it with ur friends outside of this thread? that was the simple question I asked.

U don't know me I don't know u so don't come assuming u know the kind of ppl I interact with.

Lmao. You do realize that the B.O gross of Superman (1978) was huge at the time of it's release, right? That was Superman's theatrical debut and rightfully, it was a hit. How do you expect a blockbuster to make a billion dollars in the 70s? What do you know about Box Office inflation and ticket sales? When you said a no-name team outgrossed Superman, i suppose you mean the Avengers? First of all, MOS was a controversial film receiving mostly negative reviews if i recall correctly. That hurt it's legs. Secondly, we've seen countless Superman films already. Some OK but mostly bad. The Avengers was the first of its kind and understandably, it had more hype.

forget snyder for a minute. For the fact that these actors can boldly c0me out and against wb acti0ns to support this, means they kn0w for sure the film released in theatres was a let down. Trust me, Ben Affleck, an acclaimed writer wouldn't be on to this antic if the snyder cut wasn't good. They starred in it, read the script, they may have seen the fo0tage. And it's n0t like if the cut were to be released, they'd make m0ney off it. But pers0nally, i think it should just end at that. Forget the snyder cut, if the idea is to scrap the dceu after milking the on going aquaman, w0nder w0man, suicide squad franchise, and start all over with Robert Pattins0n's universe, then great. Integrating shazam into that world wouldn't be hard. I believe that's the plan by wb hence the n0nchalantness in releasing a Flash film.
You think they studio is only here to make comic book movies? They have other movie franchises to make too. Ezra miller is already set for fantastic beast after that he will be available for flash.

It has been said several times on SM. So stop getting emotional

Joker's cinematographer just won two awards (the Golden frog and audience awards) thereby boosting its Oscar awards chances.

The Golden frog is the version of golden lion for cinematographers cool

To be honest, this awards season is going to be very tough as we have strong contenders like the Irishman, 2 popes, JoJo rabbit, once upon a time in Hollywood, ad astra, hustlers , marriage story, endgame etc

oga, forget fantastic beasts whatever. Did henry cavill n0t film man fr0m uncle for wb shortly b4 BvS? Had wb been serious abt a flash film, miller would've filmed it immediately after part 2 of fantastic whatever. What of Viola davis who is involved with how to get away with murder and suicide squad? Abegi. Find an0ther defense. Wb aint serious on a Flash film. Take joker for example, the film was ann0unced in late 2017, filmed in 2018 and released this year. Flash and Ezra were ann0unced immediately after the flash pilot aired in October 2014. It was same time that jas0n m0m0a was cast as aquaman [although his was secret], did m0m0a n0t film other m0vies during that time till b4 justice league? He went on to film aquaman becos wb were serious with an aquaman film. But for the flash film, wb d0n't kn0w whether to go with flashpoint or anything, evident with how writerz and direct0rz kept leaving the project. Okay, why didn't patty jenkins t0o walk out of w0nder w0man? Or shazam go thr0ugh rewrites and the direct0r leave? Why didn't wb put a hold on jl with all the crisis that went on? They had interests making those projects. But wb are n0nchalant with Flash cos of the series' popularity i think. If it was cos of fantastic beasts, is the project n0t theirs? It's had 2 sequels out, why n0t push the third and go with an0ther film that had been in development hell b4 returning to a 3rd film?

oga, i never said superman the m0vie should gr0ss a billi0n at its initial release. I was outlining ur flawed logic of how a film's BO potential rests on a character's popularity. No superman film has ever outgrossed MOS whether 0n initial release or adjustd for inflati0n. Superman the m0vie if adjustd made 530 s0mething milli0n. And MOS made 600 s0mething mill. And superman is a popular character. M0re popular than Joker and aquaman. Ir0n man made m0re than superman the m0vie when adjustd for inflati0n, yet ir0n man was an unkn0wn character at its initial release. Superman the m0vie had top stars in its cast back then in the form of gene hackman and marl0n brando but the film made a hundred and s0mething which was big m0ney at the time but couldn't go past that even with the character's popularity. What am saying here is, there are films that appeal to a general audience and those that d0n't n0 matter who is involved. Any questi0n why a film abt jesus christ hasn't made a billi0n yet whereas titanic made m0re at its initial release.

Please remove ad Astra and replace it with Ford v Ferrari. Hustlers is for best supporting actress only. Endgame will only appear in the technical sector (IF). There is knives out, Bombshell, Just Mercy and Rocketman

Actually Superman made 300.2 million worldwide. That was 1979 dollars. In 2019, that would be over a billion. But that's besides the point.

I never said that superhero popularity is the sole factor. But you cannot write it off. I dunno about you but in my locality, pretty much the only CBM that had more hype than Joker was Endgame. Then maybe Far From Home.
