I'm going to guess DC will have a really good year.

1. Batman v Superman
2. Suicide Squad / Civil War
3. Civil War / Suicide Squad
4. Apocalypse
5. Doctor Strange

I think Deadpool will be a lot of fun though I'm expecting nothing but ass juice from Gambit so I can't be disappointed.

This is pretty much word for word what I was going to say.
 
1. Captain America Civil War will be a blockbuster
2. Doctor Strange will be a blockbuster
3. X-Men Age of Apocolypse do ok
4. Deadpool will do ok
5. Gambit will do ok
6. Suicide Squad will bomb
7. Batman v Superman Dawn Of Justice will bomb
 
Top Tier: Suicide Squad, Deadpool
Good Tier: BvS, Civil War, Doctor Strange
Okay Tier: Age of Apocalypse

I don't think any of them will be bad.

EDIT: Wait, forgot about Gambit. That one will probably be this year's Thor 2. We'll have a thread 3 months after release trying to remember what the hell even happened.

Is this a serious post? I can never tell anymore.
 
Going by previous films, it'll probably be between Civil War and Apocalypse.

Also lol at including Gambit. No way it makes 2016 and I doubt anyone would put it any higher than last anyway.
 
I still see Gambit missing next year

And silly to make this before seeing all the movies (Doctor Strange and X-Men)
 
Civil War because RDJ will carry that movie.

Though I just posted my misgivings about Dawn of Justice on the trailer thread, it could really be huge because of the thirst for DC's characters. And Batfleck.
 
Awesome tier: Deadpool, Suicide Squad, Civil War
Good tier: Batman V Superman,
Solid/Alright tier: Dr Strange, X-Men Apocalypse


Gross tier: Gambit

I patiently away to be completely wrong lol.
 
1. X-Men
2. X-Men
3. X-Men
4. Suicide Squad
5. Civil War
6. Batman v Superman
7. don't care

Usually I wouldn't been psyched for a Gambit film, but I'm not seeing Tatum as Gambit. Not yet at least.
 
I'm apprehensive about Doctor Strange because of the director, writer and Marvel. I really want it to be a great film.

I think it could go:

1) Captain America: Civil War
2) Suicide Squad
3) X-Men: Apocalypse
4) Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice
5) Doctor Strange
6) Deadpool
7) Gambit

Not a knock to any of these, though. Tough to tell how they'll turn out.
 
1. Civil War
2. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice
3. Dr. Strange
4. Deadpool
5. X-Men: Apocalypse
6. Gambit

I have no idea where to rank Suicide Squad. Are we getting Fury David Ayer or Sabotage David Ayer?
 
Either Civil War or X-Men. They have proven creatives behind the respective films, so I put the most trust in them to be good.

Batman v Superman is in a special category, cuz it seriously looks like a campy Silver Age revival by way of 90s comic aesthetic. Like its gonna at least be interesting, even in a total trainwreck kinda way.

The others...Doc Strange has a great cast, but no faith behind directors/writers/Marvel on that one to be anything but another stock origin story, like Thor and Ant-Man. Moderately, sporadically entertaining and little else. Suicide Squad could be the biggest surprise. Gambit probably won't be anything. Deadpool looking fucking annoying just off the red band trailer, I can't imagine a feature length version of that.
 
Barring poor critical reception, I think Civil War is the forgone winner of the box office.

Quality wise, it's up for grabs, especially since some of those films listed haven't had a full trailer released yet.

edit: yeah I coulda sworn gambit got cancelled or something
 
1. Captain America Civil War
2. X-men Apocalypse
3. Doctor Strange
4. Deadpool
5. Gambit
6. Batman v. Superman
7. Suicide Squad

Haven't cared for anything we have seen from the DC side post Nolan thus far for the big screen.

Arrow and Flash rock though.
 
Grades are based on what we know, quality of past films, and what my heart is telling me.

1. Captain America 5/10
2. X-Men 5/10
3. Batman v Superman 5/10
4. Suicide Squad 5/10
5. Doctor Strange 5/10
6. Deadpool 5/10
7. Gambit 5/10

Just remember that whoever loses, we (the viewers) win!

I thought the same when I saw the red band trailer for the first time, but rewatching it, I kinda feel cautiously optimistic about it.

But if it's shit, well at least I got Marvel Now Deadpool comics to make up for it.

Are there people who actually think this is possible? Damn, suddenly I feel so out of touch with the whole movie scene. I thought there was no possible way for Batman v Superman to be good.
 
Russos did alright last time so they're most likely to do well again. X-men too. As for the rest I'll probably see them all, but who can really say if any of them will be good?

Hype for it is pretty damn massive, you have been living under a rock. Suicide Squad's trailer had a hugely positive reaction as well.
 
Most hyped for BvS, despite not liking the new trailer, followed by Civil War and Suicide Squad.

I have no idea what to expect from X-Men and Deadpool.
 
we'll find out by the end of next year. on expectation though i got

It had 1 relatively disappointing trailer following 2 great ones. Based on everything I've seen I'm still confident the movie is going to be great.
