lol stupid marveldrone
the fact that its getting a summer release in may instead of august means it cost a fuck ton of money

and in the end DC wins again
probably will end up needing china to beat SS worldwide numbers too

Okay? Cool.

GotG2 is still going to make money out the ass, especially when it comes to merchandising. Hell, probably just the pop figures will generate enough cash to warrant another dozen films or so.

Suicide squad was a great film; but suffered severely by spending too long in the cutting room and not enough time in the editing. I'm glad that it did well- since it's exactly the kind of film we need to see more of from DC. I hope that it gets a sequel, and that they let whoever was in charge of the awesome the trailers direct the rest of the film this time around.

Oh wait, I forgot- this is a thread for sperging out.
REEE, REEE, Marvelcuck, etc...

Firstly.... every other site I can find is projecting 140m+

like http://deadline.com/2017/05/guardians-of-the-galaxy-vol-2-box-office-opening-summer-season-kickoff-1202084714/

>Deadline, which over estimates all the time

Disney said it was on track for the $125 to $130 million they expect it to pull off. Wannabe "tracking experts" claimed the $150+ million opening and everyone only repeated that one thing all day. Boxofficemojo even points this out along with the fact that it will have a high steady growth from the first movies as all 2nd Marvel films have enjoyed.

But of course some fags are going to sperg out all over /co/ and /tv/ as if this is somehow a failure and keep clutching on to an award for shitty costumes which ripped off real life celebs.

Suicide Squad did well financially. It's a big hit with the HotTopic edgemaster teen demo.

Doing less well than a highly profitable movie is not shameful.

Of course qualitatively Suicide Squad was dogshit. Critics agree. Critics also agree that GOTG2 is phenomenal.

Making a dogshit movie.. now that really is shameful.

Just got back from seeing it. Every showing from 5pm on was sold out already when I got to the theater at 315pm (12 showings, ~3,000 seats total).

Even though people have Marvel capeshit fatigue it's still gonna make $750m++.

>>92114524

I can't speak for anyone else, but as much as I liked the movie when I first saw it, it didn't really hold up that well when I rewatched it.

Movie theaters like to get paid, they usually keep about half the price of a ticket on average, so for a 200 million dollar film with likely 100 million dollars for advertising, it would need to make about 600 million in theaters to break even, then it's just profit

>>92116971
I don't WANT that.

It's doing worse than suicide squad because there's not really people that are interested in it. Suicide Squad was pretty much Hot Topic bait for people who don't really watch cape movies. Same thing with BvS. This is probably attracted more children due to Baby Groot, though.

>>92117161
>Movie theaters like to get paid, they usually keep about half the price of a ticket on average

This is not correct.

1/2 of ticket price is a good estimation for most movies over their run, but how much a theater takes changes from week to week. The longer a movie plays the greater percentage of ticket sales go to the theater instead of the distributor.

It's possible for a really big stinker with a lot of hype to make a ton of money opening weekend then drop like a rock leaving most of the profit in the hands of the studio and very little for the theaters. And for a really popular movie that plays for months, the last few weeks of sales aren't making the studio virtually anything.

Where did Disney go wrong?

Gunn making it a point to have as little connection to the MCU overarching plot as possible.

The marketing emphasized comedy over plot -- which when paired with the above point, created zero buzz or speculation over the plot for MCU fanatics. Even casuals are so invested in the MCU now that they want to hear from the comic fans about where things are headed, and the comic fans had nothing to work with so casuals got nothing and it all trickled down to being zero hype.

Snyder is a hack and his movies still have some okay parts.
MCU is repetitive and simplistic.
