yes, it made a lot of money, but for what it is it should have made double that. Batman and Superman are not just comic book icons but also pop culture icons. Based on the opening day and worldwide opening, it should have been on par with The Avengers, at least. Instead, once word got out, its dailies dropped like a rock, giving it one of the biggest friday to sunday drops of all time, with one of the worst first to second weekend drops of the superhero genre. People hated it, and the box office patterns prove it. The 870 million it made was really the floor for this movie, once it was all said and done. |
Yeah. They hated Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows part 2, too. That movie had the bigger drop off, right? In fact:http://www.boxofficemojo.com/alltime/weekends/drops.htm
Batman and Superman are iconic. They've both been in great movies in the past. How do their great movies compare to the total gross of the horrible BvS? I mean box office is the metric, right? BvS was just a front loaded movie. Nothing wrong with that, is it? I'd say they did okay considering, by comparison, Civil War had almost every MCU hero in it besides Hulk, Thor, and Nick Fury. More characters automatically means more money?
