As you can see, DC is fighting a losing battle against Marvel Comics in the Box Office...

http://i.imgur.com/ZuamO.jpg

Not only that, but Marvel is upping up the ante not just with the three staged Avengers set up and independent films, it's also realeasing a shit load of other films. Dare I say it will keep up with the shit storm of Star Wars shit about to be flooding Hollywood.

However, as you can see - Superman was a major character and his film made a lot of money, even though it got bad reviews. This is because of how iconic he is, everyone flocked to see him at first. Zack Snyder's 300 was a hit, I personally thought what he did with Watchmen was miraculous, and he has TDK's Goyer writing his script, and this film has a huge budget, courtesy of Nolan.

You're missing loads of DC movies, such as the Swamp Things, and Constantine

I honestly don't understand the need to do a VS thread of DC against Marvel.
Marvel invested in their own film production company, DC didn't & has chosen not to.

Regardless it's a win win for us geeks wanting superhero movies.

Yeah I always found this attitude of I'm a DC, I'm a Marvel to be pointless.

I hope this Superman film is awesome. The last one left a bad taste in my mouth.

Marvel creating their own studio and now venturing into a TV universe that's connected to the movies........just blows my mind though.

They're making all the right moves. Who would've thought DC would be playing catch-up after all the great animations they have made throughout the years.

DC always seems to play catch-up, I think. It's just that in a lot of cases, they catch up and then take the lead.

Whether that happens with movies, I dunno.

DC makes the better movies

I view it in the same way as a Smith/Neo conversation with Smith telling him, It is inevitable. Marvel is just better.

@Quanchi, I don't care as long as Superman gives ya'll a run for your money. Pun intended.

If you take DC's heaviest hitter The Dark Knight and adjust for inflation, it only made about 22mil less than Marvel's heavy hitter, Avengers.

Factor in that TDK only had one previous film building up the hype compared to Avenger's five films. DC is holding their own.

I personally like the idea of Marvel and DC having a movie-war, in the end, it just means higher production value films for the fans, which I am of both. So win-win.

Wouldn't say DC is holding their own, because Batman is literally the only superhero they've managed to successfully market in the movie environment since Superman in the 80's. Every single other venture they've has failed, and not just failed, but catastrophically.

Watchmen did great considering the comparable budget and fan base of Superman and Batman.

It will when directly competing with a heavy hitter like Ironman this summer. If MOS does significantly better then we will be seeing some shit pop off. If not well then eh

Ironman III has left the bad taste in the publics mouths due to Ironman II.
And MOS has left a bad taste in the publics mouths due to Superman Returns.

Marvel has the advantage because they are pushing their universe ahead into Phase Two. And Ironman III being an evolution of the character.

DC are at a disadvantage for playing the same old game.
Creating a origin story for a character we already know in the flavor of the Nolanverse. Grounded, dark and gritty.

In the end it all depends on how good the films are. But DC are along way off succeeding in creating a Justice League, whereas Marvel are burning ahead with a successful Avengers movie, a TV series based on the universe and films not only based on their lesser popular characters but entering their outer space based characters.

Man of Steel better be the seed that spawns their universe, for the Dark Knight series ended. And nobody is going to except a Bale Batman as a Justice League level hero.

not sure how you came to that conclusion considering no one has seen either movie yet and there are no box office numbers to support the statement.



also, i guarantee both of those movies make a profit twice over.

Looking forward to Man of Steel on June 14. Just found out about it. Glad they found a new guy to play Superman.

anything is going to be better than the Green Lantern IMO...

The third trailer had more of a light hearted feel to it. Which is a great advancement.

I fall under the category of wanting to see both companies to do well, we all benefit if they do. I love the DC universe and the characters in it, Superman is the biggest comic icon there is so hopefully MoS smashes the box office.

Superman is probably the most recognisable superhero in the world. Probably the most merchandised, too.

Batman would probably be the most popular.

Spider-Man has shot up ever since the movies cameo out though.

Stop lying, guy.

At least you stopped denying you hate DC, that's a start to a better you!

Collectively, Marvel is more popular right now because it has more characters that are popular right now. No single one has quite broken through that glass ceiling though. Spidey is close.

DC really needs to step up its game and get guys like Flash, Lantern and Aquaman more in to the public eye (and in a more accurate, positive note in Aquaman's case).

Marvel is more popular right now because they actually had the balls to actively push their characters into the mainstream.

DC is too busy deepthroating Superman and Batman to care about their other characters. Yoou can't expect the mainstream to care about your characters if you don't.

While the financial successes obviously belong to Marvel, the fact that Marvel has made Superhero franchises ridiculously popular should be sufficient to make DC comfortable enough to think people will support their movies too.

They need to make a good movie (which its looking like MoS will be) and then make it very clear that MoS's universe is connected to other characters who will eventually all be seen together on screen like Marvel's Avengers.

The most important thin is that first step, they have to make a good movie... and follow it up with more good movies. Not all of Marvel's movies have been outstanding, but none of them have sucked. One misstep could make a lot of people lose interest in the larger plan.

I do think, though, that MOS is the springboard, so I'm optimistic.

Quan, your own posts say as much. You want to deny it, that's fine.

DC is holding on to the landscape just fine, like they always have done. Yes, more Marvel characters are getting exposure, but that means they're only catching up to DC, who've had well known characters for decades now.

I really don't see what you're expecting them to magically achieve, especially when DC is as strong as it is.

I'm hoping MoS does better than Avengers(it won't), not cos of some stupid "I like one so the other has to fail lol lol lol" idiot's stance, but because I'm a fan of both franchises and the better they both do = the better quality superhero flicks all around the audience (which I'm part of) will get to enjoy.

You simply just don't get it.

Quan, your own posts say as much. You want to deny it, that's fine.

DC is holding on to the landscape just fine, like they always have done. Yes, more Marvel characters are getting exposure, but that means they're only catching up to DC, who've had well known characters for decades now.

I really don't see what you're expecting them to magically achieve, especially when DC is as strong as it is.

There's room for both companies, always has been. No, and knowing me all these years you should understand my posting style. I go fr the throat in debating its nothing personal. I like rubbing it in people's faces. That's just who I am. I do hate Superman though save Kingdom Come and Reeves Superman.

Not at all. X Men, Hulk, Spider-Man, now Iron Man, captain America, Thor and more to come.

Marvel is a lot stronger than dc is. Has been this way for quite some time.

I don't lie about what I hate and don't hate.

You simply just don't get it. Certain fans of the companies do care. Just because you don't quit pretending no one else has the right to.

I prefer marvel. Better characters, better stories, richer history IMO.

ie you. "DC has to fail cos I hate them and I love Marvel" nonsense.

We know. Great and you're welcome to those opinions. Why do you want DC to fail cos of them though?

Pretty much my feelings on the matter too.

Trying to justify being a dick doesn't make you any less of a dick. But like I said, feel free.

No one of those characters is even close to Superman in terms of world-wide popularity and simply being recognisable, so I'm not sure what you're getting at.

In terms of movies, yes. In terms of most other things, they're neck and neck with DC even beating them in some cases. You act like Marvel is superior across the board, when it isn't.

Sure, if you say so.

Though, i don't really care if MoS does better than Avengers, so long as it does very well. I'm honestly not worried about it being a financial success, I'm more worried about the quality of the movie. It will make money hand over cock.

We know. Great and you're welcome to those opinions. Why do you want DC to fail cos of them though? I want marvel to perform better I don't want dc out of business. I enjoyed the Batman films and never acted they weren't quality films. I am honest you should try doing the same.
