Agreed. Believe me, I'm not even excited for BvS anymore. I'm very, very confident it's going to be bloated and silly, and not in a good way. Suicide Squad will no doubt be the superior picture in my eyes, I just don't think that it's gonna touch BvS money. There's too much star power in that one.
I would counter that The Joker is the most popular villain in the world, and could easily bring in the mainstream audiences as well as a Batman/Superman team up, especially one that is having somewhat confused marketing.
BvS doesn't have much competition in March, but that is pretty early for 'movie season'. Suicide Squad has Ghostbusters, Ice Age: Collision Course, Star Trek Beyond and fifth Bourne film coming out before it, but really nothing after it. Superman has never played well overseas. Batman does a little better. Curious how it plays out.
Lol a'ight.
He is, but I don't think you understand.
It's not rated R? Eh, I guess I shouldn't be surprised. :\
The first BvS trailer was one of the best trailers in years though. The last one just showed far too much. :\
I could see Suicide Squad being like Guardians of the Galaxy. Just a good fun summer movie that could gain momentum from little/no expectations and positive word of mouth.
I mean, I dunno about Superman, but Nolan's Batman is THE Batman to me. As is his Joker.
I think you've spent a bit too much time listening to asinine complaints on GAF. The marketing for BvS isn't confused. They're bombarding people with material and gaining exposure, while hitting on the kind of formula that tends to appeal to populist tendencies. They'll go to a more intensive stage in a few weeks time. It's pretty straightforward stuff, and it works.
Was Common that freaky thing in the subway?
Eh, I'd say BvS has a bit of a confused marketing atm. The first few trailers were selling a very dark movie with a clear focus on the two characters' conflict, now we're getting trailers where they're friends, Wonder Woman is beside them, we got like 3 potential villains, etc.
Both are going to be huge. I'll say it again, when BvS delivers, it might help bring Suicide Squad across the billion mark worldwide.
Friend Verendus, maybe BvS will beat it, but I can guarantee you the bolded won't be happening. I'd be willing to take an avatar bet on that.
My concern is that might be a fake promotion* to hype her Suicide Squad role up thus helping that shock kill.
His tattoos are still stupid as hell though. There is no way he doesn't crush it as the Joker, he's too good of an actor not to.
Cmon man, you can't tell me you weren't awe-inspired by the amazing shots of Jesus Christ behind Clark's head in MoS.I put in about as much effort in my insults as Zack Snyder does in his movies.
I'm personally awaiting the cinematic introduction of MAN-BAT, the best Batman villain.
