Please note the date and time: it is now official.  Captain America: Civil War has surpassed Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice in every category.  

 

Here's the breakdown:

Domestic Gross: 347.4M vs 328.4M
Foreign Gross: 706.1M vs 541.8M
Worldwide Total: 1.0535B to 0.8702B.  In the top 25, it is poised to knock the Dark Knight Rises (1.0849B)down a peg and now competes with Iron Man 3's 1.2154B.

But that's not all.  In addition to be a commercial success, it is a critical success as well, killing Batman and Superman faster than you can say "Martha".

This is an uncontested smackdown against the biggest heavy hitters of the DCU.  BvS could have great, and indeed it should have, instead it is the latest to showcase how not to make a superhero movie.  The 90's had Batman and Robin.  Then came Daredevil.  This decade it is BvS.  

How do you feel?

 

 

This one is for the tinfoil hatters out there (you know who you are).

I agree with you on most of everything except for a few things. First, Daredevil wasn't the worst superhero movie of the 2000's. Catwoman was far worse. In the 2010's, Batman v. Superman isn't the worst either. In fact, I thought it was decent and I think it gets way too much hate. If anything, the 2015 Fantastic 4 movie is the one you can compare to the likes of Batman and Robin. That movie was a trainwreck in slow motion. I say that because you never heard anything good about the movie even long before it its release.
