EDIT: DEAR GOD....a 93 Million dollar Opening for JL.....

I truly dont even know what to say.....Its just straight Over.....

WB truly has to almost start over, Affleck has to be recast in The Batman...Cavil has to be recast and they got to reboot Superman...The Flash movie isn't going to get made....

Wonder Woman 2 is the only thing that can go forward after this....Aquaman is already in POST...If it does well they may go forward with a sequel....

But this is a complete REJECTION from Audiences....

were looking at JL making like 600 to 700 Million total NOW!

BvS LITERALLY KILLED the DCEU, It crippled JL....

lol All DC fans wanted to talk about was "Critics were biased and Fans loved BvS"...But now were getting concrete evidence that BvS was Hated By Audiences too....Hated so much that Almost HALF of the people that saw BvS aren't coming back to see JL....

JL is going to really go down as the biggest disappointment in Hollywood History....

A movie that had the potential to make 1.5 Billion that ended up making 600-700 Million...A movie that With BvS, Literally KILLED A Cinematic Universe....

Affleck doesn't have to worry about NOT WANTING to play Batman Anymore...He literally can't....WB has to completely establish that Matt Reeves Batman movie, is starting over, they now have to completely distance themselves from JL and BvS....

lol its over

I'm glad. I want a reboot.

BvS is still the stuff of legends. A movie that made an incredible amount of Memes.... for all the bad reasons.

BvS must be the one movie Film Schools now use as a "how NOT to do a CBM" alongside Fant4stic.

reply

lmao the internet needs fresh memes, man!

Now that JL is out.... we are about to get them XD

And Zack Snyder is definitely out. Don’t get me wrong I loved man of steel but that movie had Nolan as creative director and it was also partly written by Nolan.

Maybe it’s a good thing that DOJ is a massive failure and sucked so badly as a movie. The fact WB was very silent about the release and banned early press screenings shows that they are self aware of how bad the movie is.

I hope we have a reboot, I love Henry Cavill as Superman. I think he is amazing for the role but unfortunately had bad luck getting involved with bvs and DOJ. Even Affleck who is a great director himself is ashamed of of DOJ

This is really bad. I'm not anti-DC. I really wanted them to do better. I wanted trilogies of a new Batman/WW/Supes and to learn more about other characters I don't have much background on (Flash, Aqua, Cyborg). I think we'll see solo films and then that's it. No sequels or anything.

It was a mistake to give Snyder so much control of this universe. The Russo Bros proved themselves with Winter Soldier/Civil War, and now they are leading the way with Infinity Wars and beyond. Had Winter Soldier/Civil War had mixed reviews, they would not be given the reigns to the other bigger films.

Did Snyder really prove himself with Man of Steel? I liked some of it but it also could've been better. Maybe they should have had more concurrent solo films (WW, MoS, The Batman, Flash, etc) coming out around the same time. Whichever director did the best job at storytelling, writing, glowing reviews and fan adoration gets to be in charge of the next big films. Putting too much trust into one Snyder basket is a dangerous line to walk.

THANK GOD PEOPLE ARE FINALLY WAKING UP TO THE EMPTY CON OF THESE ARTLESS COMIC BOOK MOVIES!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! Getting rid of this turdfest "universe" is four years overdue!!! Die, "DCEU", DIE!!!

Now they need to bring back Brandon Routh and apologize for firing him and inflicting this GARBAGE on us to BEGIN with.

Don't blame this movie though, Blame BvS and SS, they erased all good intentions people might have had towards this franchise. Me included. I saw BvS opening day, I saw SS until it came out on tv because I wasn't going to give them another dime.

Funny enough, things got so bad that I ended up going to see JJ just to laugh at it. It's over
