why make another thread about the same thing?

Imp, can you merge these?

My bad I didn't realise it was already a thread

It's ok we can just merge them and continue to read Quans trolling.

well, this one does have a poll. I voted for "i don't care", btw.

i really don't understand why anyone cares. Unless you have a personal stake in either company, it doesn't make sense why you'd be rooting for one over the other.

Pretty sure Golgo made 5 new accounts so he could vote multiple times.

Marvel will win in the Movie Arena because I have full faith in WB to fully FUK IT UP with their movies. I point to the last 2 Superman movies as proof.

Unless Spider-Man is heavily marketed, BVS should win.

Requested a merge. Hopefully we'll get to keep the poll

BvS will be a juggernaut, Civil War has continuity going for it and established characters but thats it really. BvS has BATMAN VS SUPERMAN, i think the title speaks for itself

Just comes off like the usual fanboy rant about about my fav company is good and the other is bad nonsense.

lol

Are we counting all Marvel property, including Deadpool too?

There are a lot of people who like to predict box office numbers for various reasons, but it's just like anything else, really. Why root for some sports team that you have no part In? Or debate about characters on a battle board? It's all just a waste of time, tbh.

If you like a certain movie, you want it to do well, because it guarantees sequels. I think BVS will do fine, even if it doesn't break records.

Also, sports are by definition, competitive; they have definitive outcomes that are determined by scoring systems and awards/trophies that are given to the best players/teams based on stats.

Both of those examples are flawed.

Rooting for sports teams and participating in forum debates both have outcomes that give you a sense of pride and/or achievement. What sense of pride or achievement does one get from a Batman movie making more money than an Iron Man movie? You literally get nothing out of it.

i like Pizza more than Burgers, but i don't go around hoping Burger King or McDonald's goes into financial ruin.

city/state/national pride, for the most part.

The people who do this correctly (not those who ignore logic and fact) are in it for the debate, and the rational among us are capable of admitting when it's over. Discussing which character can beat another in a fight is actually fun.

Sure; but that's not what this is, these threads are created by people who actively hope for one set of franchises to fail, and it makes no sense. The success of one doesn't negatively effect the other... actually, the opposite is true, If a marvel franchise is successful, it's a push for the genre, and more dc franchises will get made.

Yes, but don't you get a certain amount of pride predicting the box office numbers for any movie? I get that from many of the posters on the BO forums. You can get pleasure from pretty much anything. 😛

i actually do own Time Warner stock, have for the past 5 years and boy has it gone up since then 🙂

even if that's true, a Marvel film making more than a DC film has zero negative effect on your stock.

of course it doesnt, time warner is so so much more than its film division that its not even funny lol...still....thought id rebut 💃 🤣

wish i had bought disney stock too though, they are actually worth more in the market than time warner at the moment

I would have said BvS beats Civil War before the Spider-Man announcement. With Spider-Man I think Civil War takes it.

This is far too early to call yet IMO... not that I give a rat's ass. I will be watching all 4 of these in the cinema in anyways.
