The Hulk Hogan sex tape got better reviews than this and is going to end up making more money. Well there is always Lego batman. How does this happen. DC animated movies are amazing.

like i said before, if this thing has a bad second week don't be surprised to hear some rumblings from WB
remember, Disney shook up Marvel Studios after Ultron and that movie didn't even shit the bed, it was relatively well received both critically and commercially.

If the universe is rebooted, we may actually get CW's Flash on the big screen. There could be a chance!

That RT consensus blows. Have a fucking spine, nerds wouldn't blow up the site.
do you have some source that correlates a shake up at marvel with ultron performance? from what I remember Whedon was just over it and wanted out

He was weeks away from doing Justice League back in the day
And introduce the Legion of Super-Heroes. I wouldn't mind a separate Superman and Superboy movie....as long as it's done well.
PROVE ME WRONG!
At this point, anything that isn't already filmed/getting ready to be filmed is going to need to be seriously rethought, if not outright cancelled.
Not sure if that R-rated cut would have saved this movie by fleshing out character choices, or if this whole thing really is just unsalvageable, but they're going into Justice League with their two biggest names looking like shit.
I'm genuinely saddened that this is the reaction. I mean it's funny to a point, but simultaneously I'm disappointed that the DC Universe simply fumbles again on-screen like this.

Charles Roven said at the premiere they still had a little bit left to shoot, mostly studio stuff.
It is possible, albiet unlikely, that it could go into re-shoots or just have most of the cinematic universe stuff excised in the editing room.

There's honestly nothing on that site whatsoever to indicate its creator has any highly placed sources anywhere. It looks like this is the first big rumor they've ever run.

I say t next weekend is when will know the final tally. If it stays making money little changes, if ticket sells drop off a cliff. Wigs are going to get split
In-between Deadpool and Civil War, the genre will be fine.

More time for Zootopia
It's a shame not even Doomsday could save this film. I might go see it if my friend is up for it, but I was looking forward to Suicide Squad more than this.
Doomsday was one of the worst things of the movie. Weta Digital's copy-paste plastic orc. Looks horrible: unliving, nonexistent.

Yeah I live in Japan where movies are overpriced as fuck and released incredibly late almost every time.
BvS is one of the rare cases where it comes out here early so I was on the fence. However, after some of these impressions I am probably gonna sit this one out until it hits a streaming site I use.
The Creative Consule was thrown out because of Ultron and now Feige is in full control.
Oh god, does that mean Snyder's going to try to sell us on thinly-veiled remakes
of a remake
So? In rare cases they rewrite movies while filming, look at fant4asic or a more recent example Guy Ritchies King Arthur film.
yeah but did it have anything to do with actual box office performance? It seemed like mostly politics and frustrations with working with certain people

We don't know how that would have went. You should be happy it never happened so he could devote the majority of his years to Fury Road.

"And in one fell swoop, people of the world awoke to the truth about critics/reviewers, and the 'profession' vanished overnight. Movies, music, food, gadgets, automobiles, etc. Humanity discovered the joy of forming their own opinions about such things, by personally trying each and every thing until they found one they truly liked."
Or not.
Yeah, the word was that Disney wasnt happy with how much money the movie made

If this mess causes them to cancel the Afleck Batman movie I am gonna be real bummed.
I dont give 2 fucks about the rest of the DCCU but that seems like a real great combo.

Look at Spider-Man, although different, but some crazy shit always happen. I don't think anything of that is true, well except for WB rethinking their strategy (possibly delaying justice league).
I think an Afleck Batman solo film is safe, hell if anything it will be fast tracked because of this

Justice League Part 1 and everything released before being written off as bad dreams will dinthe trick.
As they should. This whole debacle is a case study on how not to establish a cinematic universe. The fanboy in me is kind of livid that WB managed to screw up the first movie starring two of the biggest superheroes of all time...for the first time. With all of the criticism levied against MoS and their previous failures (GL, JH, SR), it's as if they've learned nothing.
I'm legit bummed out that they botched this. At the same time, I'm utterly fascinated at how they managed to.

Lol, so much hyperbole in this thread.
It's making $130million this weekend. It's not going to flop. The bubble isn't going to burst. This is not the end.
The Internet-comic-nerd community is so small in the grand scheme of things. It's Batman, Superman, and stuff getting destroyed. Despite Snyder's best effort, it won't flop.

The reason why marvel movies are better than DC movies is because marvel have better directors. Zac Snyder is a bad director imo. I don't know why he keeps getting work.
You misspelled Zack Snyder.
Superman can be presented as a likable, sympathetic character. They just haven't achieved that under Snyder's influence.

130 million this weekend is...not good
no one's questioning the opening weekend. $130mil would be a low for a movie like this.
what matters at this point is the 2nd weekend drop off
