This movie looks on the same quality as Shazam and Aquaman. I think its one of the good ones. People are really quick to gnash their teeth at every new DC movie.

Also apparently this movie is well hyped in the Hispanic community. It's going to make more than 8 dollars

I saw the trailer before the spiderverse film and it looked so worthless. I really cant see it appeal to anyone who doesn't go to see all these dumb superhero movies per automation.

I think like most good super hero movies it'll be the characters and plot that drives their motivation. I keep seeing this "just another CG crapfest, rah rah rah", but I think people are liking it because it has smart writing and the actors to pull it off.

I think the reasonable top-end for this is Bumblebee, which finished at 91% critics rating on RT. 135m budget, 127m domestic, 467m worldwide. Domestic, that wouldn't be a top 20 movie in either 2018 or 2019. Worldwide ~19th. Still plenty of room to make money, but movies tend to make money based off the last movie, which is why it's so hard for new IP to hit it big. BB will be weighed down by the rest of DC.

Change of pace? It looks exactly like every other blockbuster super hero origin movie put out.

I dont even think BB will be weighed down by DC. Itll be weighed down by nobody knowing who the hell blue beetle is, and have no reason to want to know

At best, DC's reputation has no effect on BB, but I think it's pretty clear it won't be riding DC's coattails to success, and imo all the issues DC has had is leading to greater disinterest than normal.

Yeah. It basically has nothing going for it.

I guess besides an 81% on rotten tomatoes, which is not bad.

maybe if it gets buzz for an amazing after credits scene or something

No they're not. That's conservative rhetoric. This is me making fun of a dude reviewing a super hero movie he hasnt seen. VERY different. What exactly do you think goes down in Washington DC?

You cant make everything a political tool, man. That's not good.

No script at all would have done Batman v Superman justice. The core concept is about as fanfic as it gets.

Lines and sometimes entire scenes can exist solely to be used in the trailer. Its by design.
