No where near as impressive though. BvS made same as GOTG domestic, and no where close to Deadpool.

That would be impressive if it did that. Earlier you said it had no chance. No where close? BvS grossed 363 and BvS grossed 330. I wouldn't say that isn't close.

^ I said no chance when I thought BvS would gross a Billion Lol. Domestic only is a different game. That's possible, especially given BvS's domestic gross wasn't exactly record breaking in any way.

According to IMDB this movie won't have a Chinese release.

hmm I have read a few things that could confirm this... but it could still open up in China at a later date...

It doesn't need to do BVS numbers to be a success.

It is going to get World Wide Release and it doesn't have Ghostbusters Negativity against it so it will make butt loads of money regardless.

Depends on the budget and marketing cost. Remember this rumours of a $250mill budget.

But you're right no ones expecting it to gross BvS figures. And I've been the one hammering on how the Only thing that matters for this film is its quality and reception.

Grain of salt time. The supposed plot of SS.

Spoiler:
Opens with a 20 minute sequence of the squad members getting captured. It's set to pop music and every time a new member shows up their rapsheet pops onscreen in bright neon colors. Deadshot is an ex-soldier who is arrested by Batman and his daughter is taken away from him after putting herself in the line of fire to defend Batman from her dad. So he hates Batman. Joker runs a nightclub and begs a mobster to get a lapdance from Harley then kills him for agreeing to it. Batman shows up and Joker and Harley try to ditch it, but Batman catches up and the car goes into the river. Joker escapes and Harley almost drowns, but Batman catches her. Waller gets everyone sent to Belle Reve. When Joker finds out he decides to get Harley back. Waller wants to use them as soldiers, but the government thinks it's a stupid idea. Enchantress is a weirdo archaeologist who touches a voodoo doll and becomes possessed. Waller controls her heart and sends her with Rick Flagg, who's ****ing the Enchantress on the side, to investigate spooky supernatural shit. Enchantress goes crazy and takes over the city, turning some guy into her demon brother, opening a portal and turning a bunch of soldiers into monsters. She's being influenced by some elder demon. The government OK's Waller using the squad to go to the city and get the heart back so Waller can put Enchantress back under their control. The Joker shows up in his chopper, shoots down the Squad's chopper, and they end up getting attacked by the monsters and hide in a hotel. Slipknot tries to bail and gets killed. More monsters attack, and the Joker shows up again to rescue Harley, but the chopper gets shot down and he's presumed dead, while Harley escapes. The Squad finds out shit is going down and decide to complete the mission, while Enchantress kidnaps Waller.
They all fight in a museum. Diablo sacrifices himself to kill Enchantress' demon brother and close the portal so the elder demon doesn't come through. Harley tricks Enchantress and destroys the heart, and that frees the girl from the evil spirit witch. Waller gets rescued, but puts everyone back in prison cuz she's a *****. In the end Harley realizes one of the guards checking on her is the Joker is disguise, they lock eyes and smile, as pop music plays and the movie fades to black. Boomerang, Katana and Croc are underused and serve only as comic relief and background filler in the action scenes. At one point Enchantress peeks into Deadshot's mind and finds out his greatest dream is killing Batman. Lots of quippy banter, mostly from Deadshot.
Guy who leaked it hated it, btw.

Sounds almost exactly as I'd imagined it, tbh.

Spoiler:
A 20 minute introduction set to pop music?

Yeah, sounds like horse shit to me.

Where is the Killing Joke thread?

#BatmanTheKillingJoke did over $3 million dollars last night in only 1,325 theaters. DC and Warners may be onto a new viable market here.

sounds very underwhelming....

any idea who scot eastwood is?

So far the only reviews are from Deadline and Empire Magazine. Empire said:

"Most ridiculously fun comic-book movie ever"

Deadline similarly said it was fun in the same way Deadpool was.

We also have a few people from BO forums that said it was very good and Drew said he heard nothing but positive buzz.

Not sure what the RT score will be, but it seems it will be a crowd pleaser.

When do critics get to watch this? Just over a week left. What they scared of if the movies so good?

maybe critics might not like this, but I'm sure the truth will be known I'd think by next wednesday

The review embargo is lifted Tuesday, that's not a good sign.

does anyone believe the cast list that may or may not have been leaked ?

I agree

There will be a Mid credits scene for this movie but not post credits one.
