Marvel teased and teased Thanos for so long and DC was like "let's go straight to Darkseid!" and completely trampled on Doomsday, just destroyed the hopes and dreams for those us who grew up with the DoS comics and prayed we could a see a proper big screen Doomsday in our lifetime.

    I still feel like I would give the BvS UE cut a 9 if they just completely erased the DD stuff that left the door open for a proper treatment of that arc.

    But I digress, I gotta let that go.

    It seems DC just wants to forget about A, B, and C and get straight to X, Y, and Z.

    I'm not saying everyone in SS needed their own movie, I just feel like the DCEU in general feels...."rushed."

    IMO of course.

    I do really feel like WW is gonna represent the real "turn or the tide" and level the playing field. I mean I hated BvS at first but the UE cut won me over a little. It's solid to me now, for what it is. I appreciated MoS and I really enjoyed this movie. At this point DC definitely has my attention, I think they can compete they just need to keep trying to get better.

    Personally I really want a good Green Lantern movie and a good Shazam! movie (guess we can't call him captain marvel?). If they can both of those to me I'll get DCEU tattooed on my forehead.

    (Not really, but I'll be a super happy camper)
    We can, but the powers that be cannot.

    Due to trademark conflicts over another character named "Captain Marvel" owned by Marvel Comics since 1967,[4] DC chose to publish the character's adventures in a comic book titled Shazam! for many years, leading many to assume that this was the character's name. DC later officially renamed the character "Shazam" when relaunching its comic book properties in 2011.[5]

        You said "BvS is the best comic book movie this year ......" Therefore anything stated past this point I couldn't take as credible since I didn't agree with this comment.

        Some of you guys have a problem with differing opinions around here.

            Happy trolling though
            it's not worth it DD, lol.

            Anyways, the movie is just as enjoyable the second time around.

              Yah... you're right.

              Back on topic, saw the movie last night finally (been traveling a lot for work lately). The wife and I really enjoyed it. I didn't necessarily love what they did with Enchantress halfway through just because she was so cool and scary at the beginning. Other than that though I thought Smith and Robbie knocked it out of the park.

              The DC films continue to be right up my alley. I'll definitely buy this once it hits digital.

              PS: That Wonder Woman trailer in the theater... can't wait for that movie.

                Is it looking like this is gonna make a profit for the studio?

                I saw it again a couple days ago.

                Maybe I'm crazy but I just enjoy the film, it's a fun time for me. Oh well.

                    ~$572m after this weekend. Hhard to say, if the $750-800m figure was close to accurate it'll depend on merchandising and video sales. We'll surely be adding it to our digital library when it releases.

                      I seen it and thought it was meh. Better than BvS (Horrid movie imo) but definitely not as bad as some people were making it out to be.

                      I prob wouldnt watch it again if I had to pay but thought it was worth watching at least once.

                        I think I read the 500m mark was where it begins to profit. Other places have it at 700. I don't know which is correct.


                        Either way i got the Harley. Iwanted to see on big screen Harley. I don't care if it's a Gotham City sirens, bird of prey thing or solo, I'd love some more. I'm sure it would be ways off though.

                        Probably going to see this again this upcoming friday.

                          Saw a story late last week that Jared Leto was unhappy with how he ended up being used in the movie, wonder if this opens the door to pivot to another Joker.

                          Heck, I think there are 3 Jokers in the current DC U post-Rebirth.

                            Wait...how would he know that? I thought he said he didn't ever watch his own performances.

                              Someone very easily could have told him, like his agent.

                              And mestevo never said he was unhappy about how he appeared in the movie or for how long, he said how he was used. What if he was unhappy about set-related stuff?

                                Correct. They said that explains how he keeps popping up.
