    6 year production
    Frequently changing writers/directors
    Difficult lead star to work with
    Cinematic universe that keeps changing
    Misguided mentality of reducing a story to a reset button and cramming as many references in that you can

      So many redflags. What is this lie they feed themselves? Did all they do is just watch "No Way Home" and said "We can hire back old actors and make BANK"?

    To put into perspective
    >Nearly 80m less than Spiderverse's worldwide opening
    >Over 30m less than TLM
    Domestic 3 day opening is about 55m

      Spiderman is literally marvel's biggest superhero and children love how cool the spider suit looks. DC has a bad rep, despite the movie being good, and disney has the media on his pocket. Make the math.

      Marvel's always been more popular than DC so nothing new here but this is still pathetic since an animated movie aimed at troons made more than a live action superhero flick with Keaton.

          To save its life, would you have rather the baby get crushed to death?

          The microwave wasn't plugged in and the burrito was already in there

      Back in 2022 a lot of r*dittors, twatters and tumblerinas said that they'd boicott this movie because of that "woman beater" psychopath.

          no one said he's a "hero", you prove you're also from twatter by not being able to see the gray area and instead being reactionary

        I wish you Ezra lovers would just flat out say you're defending him because he's hot and frickable. I have more respect for Cinemaphile waifu posters because they're at least upfront.

      Irrelevant it's a DCU movie about a character normalgays don't care about, it was destined to fail regardless.

      Blue Beetle will have the same fate.

          In general, sure, but Miller has had so many problems no one would question the decision. They could frame it as "giving them time to heal" or some bullshit.

        That, and before Gunn this was the film that was going to save, course correct, and reorganize the DCEU. It was just to important to scrap, let alone refilm with a new lead.

    They cast a guy who is at best a supporting actor as a lead, because they didn't think about him starring in a movie

    Ezra is nuts
    They kept flip flopping on what exactly the movie is
    They threw more money at it to fix it
    People know it doesn't matter with Gunn's reboot
