After a bunch of calculations and estimated, Forbes deducts that Justice League will top out at $635m on the global box office and could face between $50 to 100 million in losses for Warner Bros.
WB spent $300 million in production costs and an estimated $150 million for global marketing.

It's what she deserves.gif

these motherfuckers always lose money but yet everyone's rich. fuck em.

Maybe they should stop making so many superhero movies and start making more fun comedies again.

Maybe they should start making good superheroe movies

Fixed for you

No, the problem is there are way too many superhero movies. If they're releasing 8 different big-budget superhero movies a year and that number is growing like it has been, of course more and more of them are going to lose huge amounts of money.

IDG why people are SO pressed about superhero movies lmao like what stake do you have in competing films?

(I haven't even seen it yet -- going tonight -- but whatever, I've just embraced bitterness in 2017.)

I’m going tonite too cause it’s $5 in my neighborhood theater lol

I ain’t paying wb full price for this. Ain’t got no time for that

Haha, same! Gotta love $5 Tuesdays <3

I enjoyed it. It's certainly not the best movie I've seen (and Thor was a better movie for sure), but I enjoyed all the characters for the most part, was pleasantly surprised by Cyborg, love Wonder Woman, and it was entertaining. Sometimes entertaining is all I want from a movie.

GOOD

An IRL douche, but a perfect Clark Kent/Superman

I hate that he's one of my favorite Clarks lol.

so true, such a big 'fuck you' from life

bittersweet truth

he's the second best after chris reeve. but him being a dick in real life is just depressing

true lol

goddamn he's beautiful

favorite clark. I love that his horrible ties were a show gag

This was one of my favourite shows growing up. <33

I mean, they hired two of the most tone-deaf directors more concerned with ass shots than plot so I don't know what they expected.

Snyder and Whedon are actually pretty similar in most respects. Their view of feminism seems the same and both are lacking in all the same areas as filmmakers. Snyder is better at composing shots but Whedon is better at turns of phrase (usually). Neither of which can make a bad film good.

I totally agree. You've hit both their strengths.

My friend keeps insisting that snyder should just direct music videos because he would be really really good on that lane and I don’t think hes wrong tbh

I had fun w it, but it could not have been more obvious that it was slapped together at the last minute, there were just so many nonsensical Snyder moments. I think the movies will get better w him gone and I actually liked aquaman/cyborg (batfleck was clearly miserable the whole time)

I think I’ll see this this weekend

Good. I’ll consider this revenge for me having to watch Suicide Squad

(Ok fine it’s not completely their fault)

How many millions did they waste on weird beard cgi

lol beard cgi?? like on aquaman...?

no, this.

op means the cavill mustache issue lol

to ass context to the other comments, henry cavill was shooting another movie where he has a beard, and the studio wouldn't let him shave it for the JL reshoots so they had to literally CGI a top lip on him.

The original plan was for cavil to shave and WB would foot the bill for paramount’s post production cgi costs to add the mustache to whatever he has left to shoot for MI:6 which is far easier and less time consuming to do than remove it. They tested the process on some of the Snyder footage that had been shot but Paramount said nah and the end result was a lipless mess.

They definitely CGI’d Ben Afflecks face too. He was and wasn’t svelt/chiseled in the face at times. Fucking weird.

I really don’t get why they didn’t just leave his beard...like in the comics he comes back with a mullet, why not come back with a beard? It’d be fine...and then he wouldn’t have a weird floaty face

And maybe you could allocated all that money into trying to make Cyborg look less messy
