Dceu lives. I am so ****ing right about everything. I knew this would deliver. Hopefully this green lights other dceu characters not named Superman and Batman.

No one cares what you think ****

NostraQuandus is ALWAYS right. I told you all. My wisdom is unrivaled.

Building up the rest of the DC universe will help in the long run.

Yes you were right about this. As far as I know Superman and Batman are not on the table but Shazam, Wonder Woman, Birds of Prey etc. are however.

When I saw Aquaman the Shazam trailer had a pretty good reaction so it will be interesting to see how good that movie is.

Shazam looks like trash to me. Quality wise and the tone looks so kiddish. Birds of prey sounds awful to me too. I am into WW but the rest do nothing for me personally.

I just want the dceu to survive to debate against. I am from the marvel tribe. Forever more.

AM and WW were ok mostly because they were stand alone rather than try to follow the DCEU story line (Is there a story line anymore?)
Stand alone movies are the way to go rather than try the cinematic universe thing. Especially now that Afleck and Cavil are likely out. And if they can get them to come back with piles of money , it could be just for the money and they would probably just phone it in.

Dceu is ok with being the beta. Fans of the dceu seem to be ok with it too.

Aquaman has already passed Wonder Woman overseas and by next week will have taken over Justice League and Suicide Squad. I still think this film can hit the 900 mark which is phenomenal for a solo movie....an Aquaman solo movie.

300 domestic plus 600 overseas for 900 total sounds good.

Really good numbers.

It's settled at 64% on RT, which rates it as being a mixed bag. Entertaining, even humourous but messy is the word. It just goes to show you can't trust people like John Campea and Grace Randolph, who were anxious to report the film was getting raves at the early screenings (just like BvsS and Suicide Squad were), before all the rest of the reviews came in to give a proper picture. They are still DC apologists to me.

I love Campea but the dude raves about JL and is a huge Superman fanboy. No one is perfect. Those flaws are pretty effin huge.

Urm what? Movie is fresh on RT.

From critics thats decent. Not everything has to be a 90% to be entertaining.

Look at Venom. Shows critics were on a completely different page to Audiences.

Venom was Rotten and hella entertaining. At least this is Fresh.

Lmao so much for your prediction.

As per usual You are all over the place. Was this film good or not?

Dudes why do people care about RT when it has Shit Panther at 97%?

Their rates suck ass....

Aquaman>BP anyday.

Aquaman was getting rave reviews at the screenings. Hell, its one of the best review movies in China, which is why it has strong legs over there. Itll pass 500 million soon, which is phenomenal.

Tastes in China can be very different though. We shall see how WOM is here. Has a very good CinemaScore though A-

What's wrong with Black Panther my friend?

Black Panther has an extremly slow startup the characters are uninteresting the story is boring. The villain is ok at best.

Its not a bad movie but its far from being great.

It took me 2 views to watch the whole thing.

Personally I was really disappointed by it.

In Civil War I thought BP was awesome and I couldnt wait for the solo movie. I kept hearing how good it is. After watching it I didn't get it why people loved it.

The hype around it ridiculous.....

This film was good and is the best dceu film. That is all I claimed. It was not great but being the best dceu film does not have to be great. Wan is also an inferior director to Abrams you ass kissing sycophant. My criticism of campea had to do with his Superman love not anything AM related. I like campea because even though we disagree he has a strong basis for his opinions.

AM was much better than the forgettable Venom.

^ Pretty lame prediction then you are harping on about. That it would be the best IYO. Just like you predicted Genyisis would be the best Terminator film. And it was... In your crappy opinion 😂

Clearly Wonder Woman worked better for critics and audiences given the RT and CinemaScore.

Again I predicted the best dceu film before I saw it. I said genysis was my favorite t film after seeing it. You just repeat lies because you are upset my views are consistent whereas you obsess over my own consistent personal ones.

WW is number 2 but I enjoyed this film better. She is the cooler character imo but Aquaman is the more enjoyable film for me. Better action, better villain, better visuals, better ending.
