Lmao. The level of trolling the DCEU is reaching extraordinary levels. Sounds to me like somebody is worried that this thing may be as awesome as hoped and is trying to campaign against it. The obsession is strong and is a good indicator how potentially huge this could become.

Un-fucking-believable. Wow. That is truly pathetic.

Yeah, that was great!

'Twas a badass BvS clip they showed when Ben first walked out (which was another funny thing altogether).

Lets fucking DO THIS:

AMC theaters over here (well, not here, but in the L.A. region) are selling a $100 Ultimate pass which gets you into as many BvS viewings as you want. I assume it includes IMAX, too.

Jesus H. Christ. Batman V Superman's Pre-ticket sales are selling out fast. Movietickets.com tracks the percentage of all tickets sold and Batman V Superman is at #1 with a whopping 54% of tickets (and counting) already sold since this morning. In comparison, Avengers: Age of Ultron at the same hour point was at 21% while Jurassic World was at 51%. We're on pace for a KILLER opening weekend.

Anybody see Gods of Egypt? It looks like a cheesefest, but the director has done some good work (The Crow, Dark City, I Robot) in the past. I might take a gamble and see it.

[verslibre]

I love The Crow and Dark City, but Gods of Egypt looks like a Royale with Cheese. Just going by the trailer, though.

[verslibre]

"I know someone who has seen Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and the stand-out of the movie is Wonder Woman. Wonder Woman kills it, and they don't show you anything in the trailer."

Not always a bad thing....

True.

Collider Movie Talk (Todays Episode March/2/2016) just said 'Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice' ticket sales are close to that of 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens'. But they didnt give a number.

^God DAYYUM...if true. Official tracking and the numbers should be released tomorrow to give us a better idea where OW is heading with BvS. People are claiming the "floor" for OW is set around $170 mil.

[verslibre]

This movie is going to do very, very well. Justice League starts filming next month. Fuq'n A!

[YoungJRNYfan]

WB/DC is fucking GOING FOR IT:

According to Variety, Warner Bros. Pictures is reportedly hoping to film 'Suicide Squad 2' with David Ayer and Will Smith in 2017.

I hope Wonder Woman fans are ready because I have a feeling we're going to be living in a Wondy world very, very soon. And having Bruce feel like he was a "sideline sitter" during the Zod battle is an awesome statement. Loving where this movie is heading:


Zack Snyder Wants The Justice League Members To Have A "Mythological Grounding"

The director has stated previously that Batman v Superman is a continuation of Man of Steel and the events that took place during Superman's (Henry Cavill) first outing as a hero. On the continuation, the director spoke about the consequences to Superman's actions and Batman's fear of uselessness. "To me, the killing of Zod is not as big a deal as the destruction of Metropolis," said Snyder. "It's important that these movies have consequences, that there is collateral damage. In Batman v Superman I wanted to show how Bruce Wayne feels when reduced to a sideline sitter. Batman is frightened by his impotence in the face of that."

Snyder then spoke about the individual and unique powers that each member of the Justice League have and how he plans to introduce them into the DCEU. "We've been strict with our rules. What they can do - Batman, Superman, Flash, Cyborg - we really are hard on ourselves because we want all those things to have a reality, a mythological grounding." The director also spoke about how he's made sure that Wonder Woman's introduction into the DCEU is the one she deserves. "Female empowerment is a thing I've gone after in all my films. They all have strong female representation. It's about time Wonder Woman was represented correctly."

‘Batman V. Superman’ Hits Tracking Boards: Looks To Rule World With $300M-$340M Opening – Update

http://deadline.com/2016/03/batman-v-superman-dawn-of-justice-global-opening-1201713544/

Insiders tell Deadline that the first day sales of BvS outstripped that of The Dark Knight Rises.

[YoungJRNYfan]

Total Awareness for Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice is at 88%, and Definite Interest is 62%. The tracking percentages are among the best I have seen. El Mayimbe said Man of Steel's first choice was at 11 three weeks out and he expected BvS to come in around 16. BvS is currently at 23.

OW numbers are going to shoot up dramatically (I say $180-$200 mil opening weekend). There's still 3 weeks until opening day and these estimates give WB/DC the necessary tracking numbers to go after their age and gender brackets, which right now is women. Expect the Wonder Woman marketing to hit the woman demographic soon. The EW covers for their magazine released today so the final marketing push is in full effect.

And just for warning, stay away from the EW article and cover magazine. There's spoilers right on the front page for the movie.

I don't want to hear dollar figures...

I want to hear TICKET SALES.

Any reports on $$$$$, will be met with yawns.

[verslibre]

I thought dollars CAME from "TICKET SALES."

[S2M]

I thought dollars CAME from "TICKET SALES."

YAWN.

Ticket prices are higher than 15, 20, and 30 years ago, Not 'fair' to compare a 2016 movie, where tickets are, in some cases - $16^ to a 1997 movie, where ticket prices where HALF that. All I'm saying.

[verslibre]

If you're looking for ADJUSTED gross ticket sales, you're going to have to wait, buddy.

I don't recall too many people barkin' about adjusted grosses for that new Star Wars movie.

[YoungJRNYfan]

These numbers are coming from the projected number of Pre-tickets sold. We won't know the exact number probably until after its run but for right now, the Pre-ticket sales in quantiy are big.

I read somewhere that this dude rented an entire theater for himself and his family for the 24th. That's pretty insane lol.
