I have no excuses for this film, it was awful. 4/10 for me, not something I can see myself ever watching again, tbh. Fire Synder, postphone production on JL and get a director and writer combo that can do these characters justice.

Well, maybe we'll get lucky Rob....

By the looks of it (as I predicted), it's going to drop dramatically over the next few weekends. Keep in mind, this movie cost WB near a half a billion dollars to make....so they need to make close to a billion for them to consider it a success. Hopefully, it drops bad enough where Snyder is gone. He has crafted a DCU that I don't enjoy taking part in.

I'll just sum it up without any spoilers. Meh ville. No heart to the film. The fight between Batman and Superman was poorly done. I didn't care for Ben Affleck. I didn't think he was terrible but he didn't stand out at all. Superman was just there in the film if that makes any sense. Lex wasn't as bad as I thought he would be but he wasn't good either. Wonderwoman I thought was nicely done. Short role but she did the role Justice.

Doomsday was god awful. I cannot believe anyone thought he looked good or that the fight was handled well. The film took forever to get to the battles near the end and I couldn't wait for this film to end. All in all meh ville. No pulse to this film aka no emotions.

I actually agree with every part of this post (with the exception of Lex who was flat out terrible IMO). Why can't you always be like this? A normal person, with good points.

I feel like I saw a completely different movie than the rest of you. I loved every minute BVS. Like I said, it had editing flaws, but that's about it. This movie fully delivered for me.

950 was my prediction and that seems likely at this point. It will just miss 1B.

That's bad news for interest in the DCEU.

You just have lower standards than most.

You better hope it makes less than that or they might keep Hack Snyder on board....

Let's face it, BvS is going to go down as a disappointment at best. At worst....well, Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic have that covered.

DC deserves a better director and better movies than they're getting.

They're likely keeping him. Unless we hear a major announcement in a week, because JL starts shooting in 2 weeks. I'm surprised we haven't heard anything about Miller. It might not be true.

I doubt they'll keep Snyder around if this doesn't hit 1 Bill.

Box office multipliers display the true audience reactions. Because it covers the entire audience.

If this doesn't hit 1 Bill then Justice League would seem to be too big a risk.

Mordru.

Tell me, Golgo... do you bleed?

29% atm, btw.

Considering people prefer AOU to this, perhaps it's not that my standards are lower. Maybe it's my ability to judge a film on its own merit rather than having preconceived expectations of the characters. Sadly not a lot of people can do that because the characters are so famous, but I feel sad for them. Their bias prevented them from enjoying an spectacular and cerebral film.

950 or so is still a huge increase from MOS. If it was up to me, I'd switch miller from Snyder.

Dude, come on. Every minute? Any Lex scene where he talked was atrocious alone.

Not even sure proper editing could have made this bordering on decent, imo.

Even it's biggest supporters on this board are only giving it average scores, so yes, it's that you have lower standards. Marvel has nothing to do with this.

Thank god. I'm not familiar with Mordru, but didn't want that to be a Brainiac remodel

You make me sick.
