Ticket sales sharply declined day-to-day; the length of the movie doesn't account for the failure to bring in money if there are a bunch of empty seats in the cinema.  Word of mouth is working against BvS and it's showing at the box office.  No excuse.

Batman killed a lot of people. He killed several kryptonite chase scene alone. 

I'm obviously not surprised by the huge success over the opening weekend as many that were looking forward to see a movie between Batman v Superman regardless of the negative critics had probably already went and saw it.

But lets just wait and see next week's sales. My friend is a manager at a movie theater and has told me that sales ticket sales have significantly dropped day-after-day.

So just like i said, indirect death from his Batmobile, he destroys their vehicles but dont pull the trigger on their head.

Just like any other Batman movie, it's really a false debat started by haters because this debat never existed for last batman movies, just watch them, you'll see he kills as many if not more persons indirectly from batmobile or from his actions in general.

These box office numbers are an embarassment for WB and DC. People were expecting Star Wars numbers, they thought this movie would kick the Avengers' ass and it fell short of all of that. Now they're settling down for a fifth place acting like it's a huge feat. 

It was going to do great regardless of the reviews. The big question is how well it'll perform for the following weeks. It doesn't seem to have much competition until Civil War which is like a month away. 

I'm watching the movie tomorrow on discount day.

I guess box office returns reaction is based on expectations. To me having "Batman" and "Superman" on the marquee with a massive $250 million budget and huge marketing push (on par with Avengers and Star Wars) making anything less than a billion dollar gross cause for concern. It looks like it will comfortably pass that mark.

The big challenge will be the stand alone Cyborg, Flash, Captain Marvel (or Shazam), and Aquaman films if DC and WB can get audiences to buy into lesser known heroes.

Thanks dumb reviews.

The world is doomed if a bad movie like Avengers 2 does more.

what?  Those same reviewers who love the Daredevil and Jessica Jones shows? What about The Dark Knight?  

Maybe they just don't like bad movies.  Man of Steel and Batman V Superman are both bad movies, exercises in style over substance and poor excuses in worldbuilding.  This one tried to shoehorn in Justice League cameos and did it worse than Sinister Six building in The amazing Spider Man 2. 

I gave them my money.  I enjoyed the action scenes, but this movie was bad.  Stop pretending there's some sort of bias against DC.  If there was, then critics would have hated The Dark Knight.  

Don't blame just the critics. It's getting a polarizing reception from the audience as well. I heard more positive reception for Age of Ultron than this movie.

And don't bring up the IMDB score. BvS had a 9.6 score before it even came out.
