I can’t believe the new Superman is getting such rave reviews.

When was the last good DC superhero movie? It looks like completely slop; there was even a shot for shot comparison to the Flash movie that was a complete turd.

The suit genuinely looks like pajamas. Oh well.

Legitimately bronchial.

Definitely in, partly due to pandering/promo

perhaps that's a minority opinion, but, regardless, I absolutely loved it

I liked it too. I guess I forgot that was DC. When was the last Marvel hit?

Bringing RDjr back will definitely ensure a huge box office.

Deadpool & Wolverine ($1.3B global box office)

prior to that...GotG3 did over $800M at the box office.

the new Captain America did over $400M, which isn't great considering other movies but isn't bad for the post-Endgame run

but the new Fantastic Four movie is coming out in a couple weeks. I expect that will get a big return. the MCU has been treading water trying not to go under until they can get all of the characters previously owned by Fox up and running (ie, F4 & X-Men)

combination of reaching the culmination of this huge thing they'd been building up to for so many years, the loss of RDJ and Chris Evans (and perhaps more importantly, their characters) who really carried a lot of the pre-Endgame stuff on their shoulders and now having to rely on characters that no one really cares about to try and carry things, the Jonathan Majors stuff and having to totally shift gears as they were trying to ramp up the multiverse storylines, and fatigue of MCU/superhero movies due to so many coming out each year (which also started negatively affecting production quality, storytelling, and effects)
