Jon Schnepp (Collider) thinks the movie will make over 200m opening weekend. He got Star Wars right, Deadpool and a bunch of other movies. Hoping this isn't the time he is wrong.

Yeah, he's been on a role lately. He even got Guardians of the Galaxy right on the money when people were iffy about it. Looks like 200 million confirmed!

All at once? Well at least it'll keep you warm.I think I'll raise awareness this month by wearing as many of my dc shirts as i can
Wouldn't surprise me, I'm thinking it can best Jurassic world for 2nd place OW and pass it's domestic total.
Got my Batman and Superman funko pops and ordered the DC box for armored Batman. I'm gonna buy so much merch this month....
When he goes bold, he's been right a lot lately... I have faith in him... but over 200? Damn, one can only wish. I'm sticking with what I said before, which I forget... around 170-180
Managed to avoid Funko Pops so far... but I really really need that.
I already got the Batman and Knightmare Batman, just ordered the DC Box today so I could get the armored one as well. I've never ordered those Box things before, no idea what to expect or if I'll keep my subscription going.

They're pretty nice.
I love that they gave Superman a transparent base to make him look like he's flying.
Do they have ones for the Flash and Cyborg?

I have Superman, Batman, Knightmare Batman, Wonder Woman, and Blue and regular Aquaman Pops. The Legion of Collectors isnt available in Australia so I dont know how I can get the Armored Batman.

Not yet. The only other ones are a Superman Soldier, and Armored Batman (which is exclusive to the Funko box). There's also variants of the Batman, Superman, and Aquaman figures.
There are comic and TV versions of The Flash, though, and a comic Cyborg will be out in May.

I was 29 when this movie was announced. I remember when they announced the delay, I thought "I'll be 32 when this movie comes out."
And here we are.
Sooo nuts.
And here we are.
Sooo nuts.
Was thinking about it on the way home from work today
3 years... 3 years
You have a kid in less time
Most people stay engaged shorter than that
You could almost finish school in that time
We've had 3 Assassin's Creed games since its announcement...
And now 19 days away!

Four, no? Black Flag, Unity, Rogue, and Syndicate. And then there's the mobile games and Chronicles, and Liberation HD...
Yeah, a lot has happened since the movie was announced.

I never felt the weight of the...wait. BvS has been the most amusing production to follow. In no small part due to the DC universe taking shape around it.
About the only production that can top it is DC vs Marvel or a Crisis on Infinite Earths bringing back Bale, Clooney, Keaton, Kilmer, hopefully West.

man i miss kilmer so much. we get plenty of bale, clooney and even keaton now but val's disappeared. probably the best looking bruce wayne too tbh (not as comic-accurate as affleck of course but dude looked good before he gained all the weight)

They also say theres already 125 million in presales. Anybody hear about that?

I think they were just referring to when it was officially announced at comic-con and one of the actors gave that speech on stage.
No F-ing way. I'll wait to see it reported other places.

hah yeah, he's the forgotten one. he was in a crappy batman film but not monumentally bad enough to ruin the franchise like clooney's, hence that bruce wayne being remembered.
kiss from a rose is still a classic. lmao at his face in that video, he looks so sad. that was one of the better cameos in lifes too short for me.

yeah I'm really doubting that. I don't know how much of opening weekend these tickets make up, but I'll be impressed if it's over 20 million.
guess I'll give collider heroes a listen tonight.
They said it's in the movie too.
I think I'm having a brain fart. What does he mean by another Star Wars?
Star Wars had no early press screenings on account of spoilers.
Star Wars wasn't screened for critics, I think people were having a meltdown over that - meaning the film was definitely going to be garbage.
Ohhhh okay. I didn't follow SW at all lol. I just went and saw it opening weekend like everybody else, haha.
Star Wars TFA spoilers
Han dying was something that was thrown around almost a year before the movie was released, I remember reading about it in some SW fansite. Which makes the whole "no spoilers" thing ridiculous. There weren't that many shockers in the film aside from that one IMO.

There's something very uncharismatic about Ben Affleck, I dunno what it is. I get the feeling he doesn't really wanna be there. Not sure why.

So a preview screening for the press before the 19th?
Error. If that shit is true, there is a special place in hell reserved for people like you. I was able to be pretty much spoiler free for SW and potential bullshit like that was spoiled in a DC cinematic thread. Long story short, if true. fuck you.

I haven't seen TFA
You're not missing anything.
Correct
It was the first Star Wars movie that I actually liked. And to think I was dragged to watch it at the theater against my will. It all worked out for the best.

I was dragged to Revenge of the Sith and was mildly amused. It was kinda funny more than anything.
It's over Anakin, I have the high ground.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Wait. How haven't you seen the movie yet?
God UK Netflix is so bad in comparison.

Normally Affleck is affable. But this press tour, the guy just looks exhausted and holding it together. Coming off directing his own film, all the WB-DC commitments, and the, you know, personal baggage.
Yeah, I hope he's doing ok on a personal level. Divorce can be hell.
