I know you can stream it as as well but that's absolutely fricking atrocious. To give a quick comparison Smiling Friends, a no-budget series by a Newgrounds animator that was on streaming a month after TV and on AS's website almost immediately, still averaged about 300,000 viewers per episode.
 It's All Fucked Shirt $22.14 |
 Tip Your Landlord Shirt $21.68 |
It's All Fucked Shirt $22.14 |
I call bullshit on Smiling outdoing Rick and Morty.
It doesn't?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smiling_Friends
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Rick_and_Morty_episodes#Season_6_(2022)
Rick and Morty even at its lowest season (the latest one) is averaging 5-600,000 TV viewers per episode, twice Smiling Friends' first season.
500k is also pathetic for network TV
There's no such thing as good TV ratings anymore, only small children and old people still use cable and modern culture is so fractured into little culdesacs that shows are going for deeper engagement with smaller audiences to push licensed goods
This thread is moronic
> dude, even higher ratings than this show are pathetic. This totally means we are popular
yeah, I don't trust OP's link.
Which also claims MAWS is the 5th most popular Adult Swim show listing American Dad, Family Guy, Rick and Morty, and Teenage Euthanasia but no Smiling Friends?
Smiling Friends isn't airing right now you smoothbrain.
Do zoomers not know how TV ratings work?
they fumbled the timeslot fr
It has nothing to do with making it for kids. It has to do with making it all homosexual. Only boomers and boomer-at-heart millennials like me still pay for cable, that’s who television should appeal to. Not gays on Twitter if it’s gonna be shown on traditional television
>all homosexual
I know people are brain damaged but Lois is a chick and Clark isn't. And they are very obviously down to frick.
Yeah but Clark is a blatant plot to turn straight men gay.
Honestly, even romcom beta MCs have more balls than him
Clark isn't the MC, he's the idealized himbo love interest
>more balls
>MC who blushes at the sight of a woman's touch
Anime has rotten your brain
>>MC who blushes at the sight of a woman's touch
Anon, you are literally describing Superman in this show.
Even those guys have more Balls and self respect than MAWS Superman
Just because you're attracted to Clark, that doesn't mean the show is gay. It means you are gay.
anon . . .
Ok, now normally I'm first to call /misc/ types batshit schizos, but he's actually correct.
The entire series is 99% based around the female gaze, the designs, characters, etc are all female gaze oriented, desexualized, or otherwise feminized in some capacity.
People who aren't too bright compare this show to anime, but never name a genre, because this isn't a shonen inspired show at all.
It's closer to a weirdly ugly yaoi/shojo series.
Sure, Clark is straight, as is Lois, but he's incredibly feminine and very sexualized.
While Lois isn't sexualized and works more for a female insert.
Basically Superman adventures is a yaoi/shojo with worse animation, no balls to show half of what those series get away with even counting the ones for little girls, and literally none of the other benefits you get from anime.
This is literally just a weird gay person's bad attempt at anime.
Most accurate post so far.
>very feminized
>those fricking muscles
A twitter clip of that's got like 40 million views and thousands of quotes and replies that are all about how down bad they are for Clark.
If that's not masculinity, I don't know what is.
TV is dying grandpa. Streaming is where most of the show's age group watches everything.
WBD just lost almost 2 million subs on Max last quarter, so don't hold your breath on that one.
The ebb and flow of the business. It still has infinitely more relevance than fricking cable.
Not for long, no one outside of Netflix and Crunchyroll is able to make money on streaming, soon it'll end up just like cable, only instead of being propped up by boomers, it'll be propped up by 50 year old millennials.
Even if this comes to pass, it doesn't win the argument vis a vi cable's importance because in such a scenario cable will be gone.
The exact point anon made is that it shouldn’t even be in cable at all if it isn’t tailored toward that audience. Let alone debuting on adult swim of all time slots.
No. Classic Superman has no mainstream appeal. We aren't in the 70's anymore.
b-but Mark Waid and Joe Kelly told me that all the people are secretly wishing for Wholesomeman back! They drew Superman as the chad and the marketable characters as wojaks, why didn't that make Superman more popular!?!?!
Snyderman is dead and buried in total disgrace. Continue to seethe and cope.
Except WB can always fail so badly that people start to think that Snyderman should return.
Snyderman is probably the only Superman that hasn't being a complete humilliation in decades
>Cucked by Batman
lmao
That's DCAU Superman tho
And Superman cucked the entire league including Batman in JL.
Was a good character and had some fantastic episodes.
You people are so fricking negative lol.
The main issue is that it's a kid's show that they (for some reason) decided to premiere at midnight on a fricking Thursday.
Even if you're thinking about the current AS audience, who the frick would want to go from watching something like American Dad to watching some kid's show?
This show should have a premiere time no later than 8 PM, they could have even had it serve as the lead-in to AS from CN if they wanted.
Ugh, this shit always happens. Promising shows get shunted onto "Who the frick is watching this" airtimes and the networks act like the failure isn't their own damn fault.
>who the frick would want to go from watching something like American Dad to watching some kid's show?
Hey in the mid-2000s viewers would switch from Family Guy to Inyuasha.
Inuyasha was way less kiddy than this show is.
>Inuyasha was way less kiddy than this show is.
lol, at the idea that inuyasha wasnt for like 8 year old japanese girls
Didn't Inuyasha have slavery and a demon dude grooming a teenaged girl for marriage?
Not to mention everything involving the perverted monk who loved to grope women.
>teenaged
Assuming you meant Rin, she’s like 10 tops for most of the show. The fact that ship was endgame and the sequel involves their kids just makes it super creepy
>mid 2000's
so, 15 years ago
At least inuyasha (or any shounen) has some edge to it. While MAWS really wants to be anime, it seems to be channeling the gayest, most saccharine elements of the medium.
>kid's show
This shit isn´t aimed at kids, but adults with arrested development (i.e. twitter users), just like She-Ra was.
The lack of self awareness it takes to be posting on Cinemaphile and accusing other people of arrested development is astounding
It's actually even more immature than the usual arrested development fair. "Kid cartoon but adult" usually has silly and quippy MC's but sinister and dark villains, because that's the combo manchildren like - see AT. It helps them think the show is deep.
But My Adventures With Superman has REALLY limp dicked villains. Like extremely limp dicked.
My theory is that shows like this have two audiences
the main kids demo
and the adult Uber nerd demo
(Transformers, Steven Universe and Adventure Time also had this dynamic)
in 2023 kids don't watch Cable so that means the only audience the show has on tv are the hardcore adult nerds, therefore. Adult swim. honestly it should be on Toonami
>honestly it should be on Toonami
It is on Toonami.
The issue is that the hardcore adult nerds who are into Steven Universe and Adventure Time are not the same audience as the people who watch Adult Swim, which is why when they started trying to combine the audiences for AS and CN, AS also started dying alongside CN.
Although ironically, shows like American Dad and Futurama (the shows people actually tuned into AS for) still do way better than most other shows (including everything on Toonami) in terms of ratings.
We really need a platform for that audience.
the Primal/Infinity Train/ATLA demographic.
I thought Max was going to be the base for that but then it for Zassed.
You can't really judge the success of a show based on just the premiere ratings. They rerun it several times a week, people can watch it on demand, on the Adult Swim app, on Max, on iTunes, etc... the total number of people the show is reaching in just the US is likely way more than 200k
How could anyone stay up that late to watch any show? I just watch it online, you know, at a time when I'm actually awake.
why did they post this show on AS when it clearly doesn't appeal to anyone above age 8?
Cartoon Network is phasing out programming targetted at anyone over the age of 10 and romance plot as well as explosions knocks it out of the category. It should still be premiering at like 8pm though.
The same reason why anything that isn't TTG is sent to die.
Studio Mir is doing it, plus it's making money on Max and to Warner Bros and DC thats all that matters.
Tiny Toons Looniversity and Totally Spies will like to have a word with you.
>plus it's making money on Max
"Max" is losing subs
So is cable.
But not to people who are watching this.
The lost subs are for the missing Looney Tunes shorts they once had on there so that they can place those shorts on Blu-Ray through Warner Archive.
I doubt they're going to make any profit on this shitshow. Much less so through streaming.
>I know you can stream it as as well but that's absolutely fricking atrocious
Why the hell would anyone watch it at midnight when they can stream it literally the next day? I've got a fricking job.
Smiling Friends was on streaming within weeks of release and on AS's website almost immediately and it still did more.
Smiling friends already had a built in fan base.
I didn't even know this show was on Adult Swim.
I watch it on MAX.
supermant is gay, the brand is dead
I’m surprised even that many people have watched this badly animated train wreck.
I'm actually kind of surprised at how bad the animation is considering how much people were hyping up the studios working on it before release.
I should have known it'd be some D team effort.
Studio Mir did all the episodes.
Every piece of western media is just a megaphone that shrieks DIE CIS SCUM non-stop. A single manga is outselling every western comic in existence combined. That's in the west as well. No one is even giving this show a chance. Superman is inherently a male centric thing but males know exactly what its going to be before they press play and they're saying "no thanks."
> Die cis scum
I have no idea how you have taken that away from any scene in this show.
I don't even have to watch it, I know its there.
>>~200,000 average TV viewers
That's not bad for a show with zero promotional budget and also coming off hot from a deeply unpopular depiction of Superman by Cavill.
Man of Steel is the highest grossing Superman film of all time in raw dollars, second highest after inflation adjustment.
The movie was shit though. The interest was there, but word of mouth hindered it.
The first half is a convoluted what the frick and last half is nothing but cgi fights. Zack Snyder can't direct for shit.
>The movie was shit though. The interest was there, but word of mouth hindered it.
This isn't bared out by data. It had an average week-to-week drop and its sequel BvS having a very high opening weekend, which can only be explained as goodwill built up from MoS (BvS then dropped massively more than BvS week to week because that movie was in fact shit).
MOS is shit, but BVS was just shitter.
It doesn't change the fact that they were both bad movies that eventually turned people off from the dceu.
Bruh, people used to bully Superman fans in the 2000s. MOS at least made a Superman who didn't made kids laught at how he was a idiot who lived in easy mode and struggled only because he was too dumb to use his powers
>people used to bully Superman fans in the 2000s.
I have never heard of this before in my life. This must be internet drama from a loud minority online.
yeah by dbz fans bc they hated superman
>and struggled only because he was too dumb to use his powers
That’s Cavill to a T. He’s an idiot who is invincible and could just let Zod ineffectually punch him because they’re both utterly invincible other than neck snapping, but instead let Zod cause wanton destruction
>could just let Zod ineffectually punch him
What
Did you not watch MoS? Cavill doesn’t have a hair out of place after trading blows with Zod for an hour. No bruises, no bleeding, no black eyes, neither of them can hurt each other. Kal could have just let Zod whale on him to keep him from trashing the city and been utterly fine. If Snyder did intend for them to be hurting each other than he’s a moron who failed to show that in a visual medium.
MoS was the first film of the DCEU and was followed by five more movies that each earned over $650 million. The DCEU's downswing really started in 2020 with BoP/WW84, which were 7 years after Man of Steel (arguably you could site 2019's Shazam as well; it made money but only because the budget was so low, its gross was lower than Black Adam). Saying that the first movie of a franchise "turned people off" from it because movies 7-10 years later failed is a weird argument to make.
I thought it was terrible. The music was good, yet but the tone and direction was all over the place. Even people I've talked to in real life said the movie was all over the place.
Which was stupid as hell because I still gave BVS a chance. One of the worst movies I've ever seen in my life.
who cares what you thought? it objectively made money and set the stage for future movies to make money.
Lots of people thought it was shit.
It was diminishing returns from basically the start. And as far as word of mouth it was always terrible.
>It was diminishing returns from basically the start
>MOS 2013: $668m
>Suicide Squad 2016: $747m
>BvS 2016: $874m
>WW 2017: $823m
>JL 2017: $657m
>Aquaman 2018: $1,150m
this seems straight-up counterfactual.
Anon, even at the time people were talking about how WW and Aquaman were successes IN SPITE of Snyder's blunders because they actively moved away from his bullshit. Anything he touched became damaged goods. Look at the huge dropoff from BvS to JL.
Suicide Squad was hot diarrhea and the only reason it made so much money at the outset was because of "muh heckin' yummy Joker/Harley" fans.
BvS high opening was due to hyping up Batman and Superman onscreen in live action together for the first time.
>BvS having a very high opening weekend, which can only be explained as goodwill built up from MoS
Or that it had fricking Batman in it you mongoloid
Wonder Woman also had a high opening weekend even though Wonder Woman hadn't had a movie ever and hadn't had a show since the 70s, explain that.
Batman v Superman introduced Gal Gadot's WW, who was very liked.
The marketing of the film was very good too, plus the marketing selling it as THE feminist film (just like Barbie rn).
Capitalized on the goodwill from previous projects and shit the bed. As seen from the flaming trash heap that every subsequent Snyder project was.
>Capitalized on the goodwill from previous projects
what goodwill? Superman had four flops in a row at that point.
Those guys believe that Batman's success benefits Superman because..."People loved Superheroes"
It makes 0 sense but Superman fans are the kings of cope, trying to believe that normal people actually wants Superdaddy back
Normies' feels about Christopher Reeve and TAS/JLU kino.
>Normies' feels about Christopher Reeve
>TAS/JLU kino
TAS/JLU averaged ~1 million viewers per episode (i.e. next to no effect on a film with tens of millions of viewers) and were all about shitting on Clark and making him look like a literal and figurative cuck.
Among comics fans it was beloved.
>cuck Clark meme
oh so you're a zoomer who's never watched the show and only seen Lois/Bruce clips and possibly the world of cardboard speech on youtube.
>Among comics fans it was beloved.
Comic fans are 10 people jacking off to futa in their basements amidst watching shows for literal 8 year olds, they have no impact on the box office.
>oh so you're a zoomer who's never watched the show
I'm a millennial who watched it as a kid and remember me and all my friends thinking Superman was a lame loser who kept getting his ass beat and running into every trap the villains set while Batman would lecture everyone on why he was right and punch above his weight class and would get all the hot babes wanting his dick.
Wow you're a fricking idiot.
You’re seething but he’s right. DCAU Superman was a huge loser, the entire Cadmus arc was about what a b***h he was and how he was going to end up like Justice Lord Superman. His big “World of Cardboard” moment ended with him jobbing to Darkseid and having to be saved by Lex. DCAU Superman sucked ass.
Not really. I liked DCAU Superman.
Thank you for sharing moron. Most people didn’t or else why does everyone say he’s boring? The DCAU made Batman extremely popular but failed to do that for Superman.
I don't know anyone who says he was boring in those shows.
Why do you seem so angry at the idea of someone liking him in the DCAU?
I do. I’m irritated at DCAUgays trying to pretend that the DCAU was a perfect adaption when really it’s aged like milk. Some of the worst Bat wanking happened in that show, you’re just too nostalgia addled to see it.
No? I rewatched it and still liked him. And I have several friends and family who watched the show when it aired. All of them liked Superman.
I think you're just seething over difference of opinion and trying to find the worst in everything.
>I'm a millennial who watched it as a kid and remember me and all my friends thinking Superman was a lame loser who kept getting his ass beat and running into every trap the villains set while Batman would lecture everyone on why he was right and punch above his weight class and would get all the hot babes wanting his dick.
This is a very real and believable recollection and not just your "and everyone clapped" tier fanfiction
If you actually watched this show as a kid and had friends you'd know 0 kids liked Superman over Batman in the DCEU.
>This is a very real and believable recollection and not just your "and everyone clapped" tier fanfiction
Anyone who actually watched Superman TAS, myself included, were actual Superman fans because the only episodes Batman was even in were the 3 episodes that made up the TV movie.
like 25% of STAS episodes were crossovers.
not with Batman
3 STAS episodes were Batman crossover episodes, in fact they were done by Telecom in Japan.
I said that in the post you originally replied to dumbass. Trust me, 3 episodes did not make up 25% of the show.
You can tell how made up this is because Batman only appeared at most, in only a handful of episodes the entire series.
>were all about shitting on Clark and making him look like a literal and figurative cuck.
Where is all of this coming from? I never seen this sort of response from anyone who is a comic book fan in real life nor did I think this when I was younger.
Hype works once.
The failure of the rest of DC's Snyderverse was off the back of The Man of Steel being shitty.
>failure of the rest of DC's Snyderverse
All those films earned more than anything after Shazam
Yeah, they were all so terrible they have basically poisoned the brand, correct.
> muh poisoned brand
You guys act like if DC was earning billions constantly before Snyder lol
Superman the Movie: about 900 million adjusted.
Batman 89': roughly the same, adjusted.
The Dark Knight: a billion and temporarily the highest grossing movie of all time
TDKR: outgrossed TDK.
So yeah, Man of Steel was a step down. It had a a bigger budget than The Avengers, a massive yearlong marketing push, and it was only the 3rd highest grossing WB film that year, and only #9 overall. It barely outgrossed Thor Dark World.
Who thought giving the reigns of an entire universe to a mid director with a history of flops was a good idea? At least Chrispher Nolan was always competent.
His wife was a WB producer
>Batman 89': roughly the same, adjusted.
>The Dark Knight: a billion and temporarily the highest grossing movie of all time
>TDKR: outgrossed TDK.
Why you're comparing Batman with Superman instead of comparing Superman with...Superman
Batman is more popular than Superman, we already know that
Man of Steel barely outgrossed Homeless Black Superman, even though it had 50% more budget and twice the marketing.
You just proved that the public love antiheroes over Superman, so dunno what's your point.
Snyder jammed Batman (and Wonder Woman) INTO a Superman movie and still couldn't attain a billion dollars. Iron Man was soloing a billion dollars back when Man of Steel was in theaters.
Whatever hype and potential was there, was burnt fast.
DC was the 'respected' comic brand compared to 'popcorn Marvel'. The Nolan films were very well respected, and the older Superman and Batman films were considered pretty good.
Snyder killed that good will. He succeeded in spite of himself with Watchmen and could never replicate half that success.
>He succeeded in spite of himself with Watchmen and could never replicate half that success.
Watchmen grossed $185 million worldwide on a large $135 million dollar budget, it was a total bomb.
And through word of mouth became known as possibly the best superhero film of its age.
And it built up a lot of respect for the brand. Even if the film itself didn't hit the market right during the theatrical run, it had cult status even within its time.
It is why Snyder was given the reins to the DC universe in the first place. And possibly his only good film other than Suckerpunch.
Before Nolan you had Superman Returns, which was viewed as pretty good. And Constantine which was considered very good.
The real stinker that comes to mind was The Green Lantern, which was comically bad but not brand poison.
>And through word of mouth became known as possibly the best superhero film of its age.
It couldn't even convince people to go see it after word of mouth came out. It dropped off sharply.
That's not how good word of mouth works.
Nice Baiting.
>Superman Returns, which was viewed as pretty good.
Returns literally killed Superman's plans in the 2000s.
Spiderman, Iron Man, X Men and of course Batman got a trilogy. Meanwhile Superman was just left to dust until another reboot.
Superman Returns is the biggest reason for why zoomers nowadays don't like Superman
>Superman Returns, which was viewed as pretty good
this movie bombe, got its sequels canned, and is almost single handedly responsible for millennials thinking Superman is lame.
DC fans are so funny when they tell themselves that Superman was popular until Snyder appeared lol
>DC was the 'respected' comic brand compared to 'popcorn Marvel'. The Nolan films were very well respected,
No. Nolan was respected. All other DC films were Literally Who tier films that were so forgotten that you don't even remember them despite them existing
This. Superman was marketed a full year out, pre-sold tickets a year out, had some brilliant (deceptive) trailers advertising a modern Donner take.
It was one of the first movies to completely stifle critical review until it was out in theaters.
Opened big, word-of-mouth got out, critical reviews got out and it was over.
>nd also coming off hot from a deeply unpopular decision to recast Superman and get rid of Cavill.
Fixed that for you.
Yet Guun keeps Gadot around. I've lost faith in him already.
Its hilarious that Superman "fans" want to have him represented as a idiot that frankly would have died if not for narrative help.
Why Superman fans want him to be a loser?
>WHY IS A ROOKIE SUPERMAN MAKING MISTAKES REEEEEEEEEE
Did you uh, not watch the DCAU? Because there he’s both an idiot who constantly jobs and has to be saved, and a fascist in waiting. MAWS Superman is far superior.
Most Supermangays are homosexuals that want Superman to be a “comfy” sissy that cries and hugs people all the time. Like Steven Universe..
Wait, are there actual Snydergays here?
Where do think all the screeching about this show came from?
The guy who makes endless “Superman sucks” threads is a Snydergay. That lot really can’t cope with how unpopular their Zaddy is, and lash out at Superman fans over it. Any time you see this kind of post
where it uses “Superdaddy”, it’s a Snydergay
Can you explain why are they so obsessed with Superman in particular?
They love Snyder’s take and are super butthurt that it was utterly rejected both by the general audience and by Superman fans. That causes them to lash out at Superman and say he sucks, and only Sneeder was able to make him a good character. They don’t want anything else Superman to succeed because that would mean Zaddy is indeed a hack who fricked up Superman on the big screen.
Could you tell me a Superman success in the last decades?
Like, he really haven't done anything to be popular in the 2000s.
Smallville. Superman & Lois. His current comics. But you’re just a Snydergay trying to fish for a way to go
>NOOOO ZADDY WAS NOT TO BLAME
>Smallville. Superman & Lois. His current comics.
> show that didn't even reach the top 100
> show that only Boomers watch
> comics that nobody reads
>A show that got 10 seasons isn’t a success
>Uhhhhh BOOMERS haha yeah that showed him
>REEEEE nobody reads those!
And nobody watched ZSJL either, fricking Gunn TSS beat it. Face it Zaddygay, your god fricked up bad.
Spiderman has done worse than just snapping necks lol
>Superman & Lois.
This show is doing terribly, it's averaging less viewers than fricking BLACK LIGHTNING and literally 1/3 as much as throwaway Marvel trash like Agents of Shield.
>his current comics.
His books are selling outside of the top 20 in an era where comics are already completely irrelevant.
Superman & Lois was cancelled. And his comics don't sell.
Other than profiling and seething about the guy that points out MOS made money, you got anything to add to this or you'll keep getting your spit everywhere with your moronic bias?
>seething about the guy that points out MOS made money
This is the real clown shit to me. Superman fanbase is the first fanbase that tries to downplay the few economical archievements of their IP.
For goodness sake, I just want a good movie. Period. MOS was directed by a hack and Returns was directed by another hack.
>Bryan Singer
Like why???????
My Adventures With Superman is pretty boring if I am being honest. If they are going to do the romance angle to draw in the female demographic, they should at least have great action scenes to draw in the male demographic.
Yeah but Smiling Friends fans are somehow bigger morons than Loiscoomers are, it's not really comparable
I'm surprised hearing such negativity about Superman in the DCEU. I thought he was fricking awesome as a kid, and a powerhouse standout especially in the JL/JLU show. And it was only his episodes stuck in my head years after I stopped caring about comic characters. Even people I watched the show with during the time thought he was great.
Nah I'm with the other guy. Superman was kneecapped in the dcau to make Batman look better, shit most characters got a nerf so batman could be relevant. Superman was largely useless for anything besides getting punched around by the strong guy while others actually did important shit. He did get a few good episodes that actually focused on him but for the most part he was as important as Martian manhunter or hawkgirl
What were you watching? None of that seemed apparent at all when I watched the show. I honestly didn’t care much about Batman there. Even on rewatch (and unfortunately I left people online ruin my perception), I came in expecting Batman worship but I still didn’t see it. And Superman still came out my favorite. And I talked to others (Not Online) who watched the show as they like superheros in general, they have no idea what you people are talking about. It’s amazing how negative and flipsided everything is on the niche corners of the internet.
The likes of Livewire shouldn't even be a threat to Superman, she only exists because he was nerfed
you're thinking of the DCAU
Newest episode is literally centers on a french gorilla and a german robot being in love. What the frick am I watching? A prelude to the next iteration of globohomo?
Warner Bros being themselves.
>People who don't read comics getting angry that a comic book show is being faithful to the comics
many such cases
No, Warner Bros use to do crazy shit all the time, especially when Tex Avery and Bob Clampett were working for the studio.
Case in point.
https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x8hd6g0
>Superman gives an amazing speech and gets three good hits on Darkseid
>Darkseid pulls a power out of his ass and makes him kneel
>"AAAAIEEEEE SAVE ME LEX LUTHOR"
Nice Superman representation, DCAUgays
>Another extremely OP character that Superman previously beat the shit out of, playing tricks on his arch enemy when he hesitated is considered bad representation now?
It is when it comes right after the triumphant moment everyone seems to think is his best moment in the show and he has to be saved by his arch-enemy
Specially when that same episode shows Batman impressing Darkseid by dodging the Omega Beams
Batman barely did anything in that episode.
And Darkseid said he was impressed by Superman in the next few scenes after.
Besides, Lex and Darkseid are both Superman villain's. So it's still Superman central. I don't see how being caught off guard by fricking DARKSEID is bad.
Clark is manly, and Lois genuinely can't help but love him.
>Clark is manly, and Lois genuinely can't help but love him.
Yeah no, he is pretty much the opposite of manly. He has the naive nature of superman, but none of the confidence.
I would imagine he builds up the confidence through out this show.
>entire episode about man getting his ass pounded by a sapient gorilla and continuing their "romance" even when he becomes a brain in a jar
this will sell our show
>Atrocious timeslot
>The inferior metric of TV viewership being used
No shit it looks bad, cable is basically an after thought now as it clearly shows for this getting the timeslot it did it's impressive it even got THAT many viewers when people have every right to just sleep past it.
What the frick even is this thread?
>it clearly shows for this getting the timeslot it did it's impressive it even got THAT many viewers
less than Smiling Friends
Yes, that impressive factor is because this should be WORSE given the timeslot it has.
And again, the previously mentioned factor the network it's on should know better than to rely on cable viewers.
I repeat, what even is this thread when it's just absolutely moronic on every front?
> guys if we use this hyperspecific measurement where we deliberately low the bar, then this product is a super success
>it's impressive it even got THAT many viewers
it's impressive that it's losing to season 2 of Teenage Euthanasia?
I hate all capeshit.
Based One Piece, Naturo, dragon ball, Jojo, Baki & MHA hater
That's all garbage too. The shitty popular anime overshadows content that's actually good. I think everyone who likes those braindead shows are fricking moronic as people who like capeshit.
TV ratings are whatever and it's mostly about how good is the streaming engagement. It'd be funny if that statistic is poor too. From a social media standpoint, the most this show gets in attention is how """"horny""""" it is to someone never seen ass or a man's figure before or how it bastardizes the Superman brand altogether. WB wasting millions on a show no watches. Wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't get greenlight for a season 3.
Garbage timeslot and it's boring like every Superman show before it
Watched a couple clips animation QUALITY is bad.
>I know you can stream it as as well but
just admit that TV is dead and studios just want to squeeze streaming as much as they can. my local cable networks only do reruns and old bad movies and a bunch of ads every 5 minutes promoting their streaming services.
You didn't think a literal gay show for Superman would be a success, did you? This makes as much commercial sense as a pacifist Punisher movie.
Smallville was fun.
YAMETE TROPHY FANTASY-SAMA I KNEEL NOW PELASE LET ME SOME OF YOUR VIEWERS I'M GONNA GET CANCELED
Can someone explain why Superman causes so much seethe? I just saw him as just another comic book hero, I really don't get it.
He himself doesn't causes seethe, its his fans who pretend he is popular who do, because its such a massive cope at best if not crying about society being evil because they don't like Superman
I see more threads insulting the character almost everyday more than the other way around. So much so that I had to ask the question as to why that is. Because it seems that the idea of liking the character pisses people off. I don't understand.
Have you considered autism?
Because Gays are upset that Snyder Superman was more popular than their gay mcuquip Superman even though their father-simulator Red Letter Media said so.
not to get too meta about it, but it appears you basically summoned the seethe. Why it's so easy, I have no idea. Maybe something about Daddy issues?
Same reason why you get Anime/Manga vs Comics/Cartoons threads every day on this shithole of a board
no one has cable anymore, streaming sites don't report numbers and half of us pirate. Those numbers are not a reflection of the show's popularity.
Anon, let's be honest, hardly anyone uses cartoon pirate sites nowadays anyways.
You can hit the top most-viewed on most of those sites with less than 10k views per week.
I know they are probably gonna make Superman responsible for Slade losing his eye, but it'd be much funnier if he just showed up with an eyepatch in one episode and when asked simply said that he got divorced
>getting under 200k viewers per episode is good for Superman
someone just put the IP out of its misery already
This guy managed to earn above millions in a row, what happened
>show is targeted at late teens and 20-somethings
>actually getting views on tv
Who the frick in that age range is watching cable?
Am I seriously the first person to notice that Intergang are the typical Time Bokkan villain trio?
I want more of them because of this. Those types of villains are lovely.
Said this, while Banshee is cute, she isn't "sexy".
I was honestly surprised to find out that Mist's name in the comics actually is Kyle
Mostly cause I don't think it's ever been said in the issues of Starman I've read so far
Guys we weren't discussing My adventures with Superman?
Or it's so irrelevant that even it's fans prefer to rant about the Snyder films?
Syndergays have been spamming these ridiculous threads for a while now. Just ignore them.
Not really, the thread was discussing the low ratings of this show until some guys starting to cry about Snydergays
> tfw this series is so forgettable that it's own thread becomes a Snyder fans vs Snyder haters thread
Go to the other threads then.
No. I just wanted to discuss how popular is this show but beyond a few answers and discussions, the thread just became another Snyder discussion because this series is so damn forgettable to sustain a discussion
It's not very popular, it's viewership #s are unimpressive.
It's all over Cinemaphile because: It's all DCfriends have that isn't a complete failure.
>the thread just became another Snyder discussion because this series is so damn forgettable to sustain a discussion
Did you miss the other threads? Go make your own or try to change the subject. Not everyone is subject to your demands.
I want to talk about its success as a series. Not sharing Lois nude edits (also, why only Lois? The villainess are cute)
Then talk about it you weak minded homosexual.
It doesn't have success. And like Shazamwow 2 and The Flush, all people want to discuss is cooming to breasts.
why DO people hate Snyder again? because he's bad at making movies? why does he cause so much outrage?
He is bad at making movies and is a bit of an edgelord.
>his movies are shit
>no they arent, you just arent ready and unable to understand this darker grittier version of Superman is actually a jesus metaphor etc etc etc
>you fricking moron
>no u
And so on.
>why DO people hate Snyder again?
Shit movies
>because he's bad at making movies?
Yes
>why does he cause so much outrage?
His cult has a shitty reputation online. And they have a particular obsession with Superman for some reason.
This shitty cult got into a conflict with the movie Godzilla vs Kong with the frequent review bombing so much so that Snyder himself had to address it. These people are insane. All you can do is just ignore them.
That's every superman thread ever. Nothing specific to My Adventures with Superman. It's just inevitable.
Snyder kept getting stupidly large budgets to work with, and never once delivered the #1 grossing film of the year.
All Snyder films are shit. Cope. He was never good.
So, what could work to made My Adventures with Superman more popular?
Lois sex scene seem like the obvious answer. But what else?
A little more mature and I rather the episodes be fleshed out more. There are several parts of the show that reeks of corporate meddling.
Boimler is a bad choice for Superman
The tiniest scrap of edge instead of being Paw Patrol tier
A better Superman actor
Superman being nerdy and aw shucks but still charismatic and charming rather than a cringe harem protagonist
actually intimidating villains
Don't air it at fricking midnight.
If they're going to pretend to be anime I want to see them wowing me with the action scenes and maybe occasionally let a woman be attractive.
I know coomers convinced themselves Lois is sex on legs but Dc has tons of girls who put not luz to shame, maybe let them appear and be hot with good designs for quality action scenes.
On top of that, I want the villains to actually be threatening, drop the baby tone completely, and in general make it less gay.
>Show based around a heterosexual couple
>Gay
You guys are idiots
Dr Strange is more popular than Superman
Venom is more popular than Superman
Homelander is more popular than Superman
Kratos is more popular than Superman
Superman causes so much seethe for no reason. It's hilarious as frick to watch in real time.
He causes apathy. General audiences have handily rejected him bar a couple of appearances where he was Edgerman.
His moronic self deluded fans are what causes annoyance.
>He causes apathy
A fictional character causes you apathy?
>His moronic self deluded fans are what causes annoyance.
And how many threads have been made shitting on this character out of spite for the last few days. Did you losers get jobbed out in some powergayging argument? All I see are morons seething hard over some random comic book character.
>A fictional character causes you apathy?
NTA and I like Superman, but it's not strange at all to not care for a character.
>And how many threads have been made shitting on this character out of spite for the last few days
I've seen Lois basing threads and a few threads about Mxyzptlk, not a whole bunch about Superman.
>but it's not strange at all to not care for a character.
You're right, but he's clearly obsessed.
>I've seen Lois basing threads and a few threads about Mxyzptlk, not a whole bunch about Superman.
I've been seeing threads everyday shit talking the character. And people nonstop arguing about him. I'm guessing it's just a bunch idiots seething over VS battles because there's no reason to be this fricking mad over a simple superhero.
How do we feel now that both Jimmy and Lois know Clark's identity?
Stop trying to convince me not to like it.
Whatever you queers, I just want to frick tomboy Lois
>Make kids show
>Air it at midnight
Woah, why is it bombing?
Don't worry anon, streaming will save it.
Not that we'll ever know, since they don't release numbers and have no obligation to do so.
Toonami is bombing
But it's getting about roughly 200,000 viewers on it's premiere AND roughly 200,000 viewers on the Saturday repeat only two days later. That's not bad at all for modern cable. It's retaining viewership for am immediate re-run and a good chunk of those viewers are probably unique. I bet if it only aired on Saturday or Thursday it'd have stronger ratings in one slot and we wouldn't see a split like this.
seeing this show's basically nonexistent viewership figure was a good eye opener of how utterly disconnected Cinemaphile and similar websites are from reality. It has like five threads here a day. You'd never suspect it has literally 1% the viewers of shit like Bob's Burgers of Fox's Special Forces.
A movie that earned $5 million at the box office has been seen by more people than this show. Throwaway indie video games that barely break even have been played by more people than have seen this show. A mid-sized YouTuber has more subscribers than this show has viewers. It's just so utterly negligible.
>literally 1%
Sorry, 10%.
So it's pretty much assured that Clark will have a dinner with Lois and her dad only for it to be the General right?
100% confirmed
This show fricking sucks ass, shitty animation, low frames, shitty voice actors, REALLY shitty story/writing. DC capeshit Black folk havent made a single good show in decades.
