Aquaman looks beyond retarded in BVS.

 Re: Justice League Predictions
Luthor having their official superhero symbols was also retarded.

Maybe, but that depends on how long those heroes have been around, for example when Bruce watches the video of Diana at the ATM, you can clearly read the year (2012), so we still don't know if they are currently fighting crime in their cities during the events of BvS.

 Re: Justice League Predictions
Yeah I didn't like the random inclusion of the JL members either besides WW. A post credit tease would have been much better and it still feels like this is coming out too soon.

If there are others already operating and Batman doesn't know it, then he has the detective skills of Mr. Magoo.

 Re: Justice League Predictions
Having the post credit scene be Bruce and Diana watching the footage together would've been waaay more effective than its random placement in the film.

Well, we didn't know Bruce Wayne was in Metropolis during the events of MoS and fighting crime for 20 fucking years when it first came out, so everything is possible.

So far, it's only been confirmed that the WW flick will be an origin story, however the films from the other JL members could work as either prequels or sequels to BvS

If the solo films get positive reception, then they can build this up better. I agree they need to build the solo films first otherwise this would be another hot mess with overstuffing and over-compensation.

I wouldn't mind though because I enjoy his style. What WB must do is to hire a superb writer to help Terrio.

 Re: Justice League Predictions
No way BvS' toxic WoM won't affect this film, no matter the excitement level.
If its reviews/WoM are on par with Man of Steel:
Opening Weekend - $150 million
Total Gross - $330 million
If they are on BvS level:
Opening Weekend - $145 million
Total Gross - $275 million

 Re: Justice League Predictions
This is a huge question mark as to how it'll do. I think it'll manage to out open BvS, how much more will have more to do with the final product and how the media reacts to it.
Also think SS and Wonder Woman not being critically panned will help as well so we will see...

 Re: Justice League Predictions
I don't know how big Suicide Squad's effect will be on it. I mean, besides Batman's appearance there will probably be very little connection.

 Re: Justice League Predictions
There are sooo many variables here. I really dislike the release date for it too.

 Re: Justice League Predictions
Yeah, I don't really like it being so "close" to Episode VIII (and even Thor Ragnorok) but there really isn't anywhere else to move it.
I can't imagine how they can make this the same budget as BvS. WB would be nuts to go over $300 million but you never know with them.

 Re: Justice League Predictions
There are indeed a lot of things from here on. Would SS and WW really have that BIG of an effect on JL? While I understand the curiosity of seeing WW for the first time on big screen, Snyder has already shown that in BvS to a good extent. The poor WoM of BvS will definitely put some effect on this over OW. Unless they start to make these solo films in connection to DCEU they won't matter but then these movies HAVE to be GREAT. They can't have another misfire.

 Re: Justice League Predictions
I think Suicide Squad and Wonder Woman will do good. Wonder Woman breaking out big time will help Justice League. The one big hurdle Justice League has is for critics and audiences alike to embrace Snyder's work in JL, but if it's not accessible and "too dark!!!" then I really don't know.
