yea Justice League might not make $1 billion worldwide.. Golgo's other lovers are only projecting $150 million domestic opening weekend..

^ If it passes Wonder Woman figures domestically and BvS figures internationally it should cross the Billion mark without too much difficulty.

Never said it did. Wondy destroyed both domestically. Domestically is where it counts most, because of the exchange rates. 🙂

Counts for what?

Exchange rates is a silly excuse given it didn't stop Spidey or GOTG flying past Wonder Woman. The film clearly just wasn't as popular internationally.

Profit for the studio. And I never said wondy is more popular than Spidey international. Spidey is number one. But according to the graph, wondy sells more merchandise than pretty much every solo hero.

I guess well see how the JL movie goes.... im cautiously optimistic. With a sprinkling of too good to be true.

Clearly she's another Iconic superhero that DC's first phase has relied on to sell itself 😛

Who cares? Dc has more iconic characters. Doesn't diminish their box office performance, nor is it their only reasoning for high performance. Youre only looking at one aspect of it all.

The massive opening weekends followed by poor box office multipliers shows they have been riding off Iconic status's alone.

The MCU had no such Icons. They've given their first attempt at one now with Homecoming and that crushed Wonder Woman at the box office. Even beat BvS.

Like I said JL vs Avengers will be the ultimate test for the DCEU in comparison to the MCU.

Let's just see how justice league performs. You're too much of a pussy to back your beta universe.

Low multipliers don't really tell the whole story. If that were true, then you would have said civil war had bad word of mouth. Wb's marketing has a play in the amount the movies gross. They're one of the best in the game. Overall, DCEU is generating more box office vs MCU first few films.

Marvel makes more money, is critically more acclaimed, and reception wise far greater with a concrete and more coherent plan.

You keep saying this And yet you have zero confidence in JL matching Avengers box office numbers 😬

And you keep on bringing up Avengers. The numbers do not lie.

Because that's the ultimate test and you know it.

You mean numbers like GOTG2 flying past Wonder Woman and Homecoming besting BvS? Hmm good point.

Wonder Woman did well. No MCU film this year will clear $400 million domestic.

Wonder Woman did great there is not question about it.

The sequel will be even bigger.

Wonder woman sells more merchandise than GOTG AND did better domestically. WW was more impressive, period.
