Don’t miss the full trailer this Thursday. #Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom - Only in theaters December 20.Director James Wan and Aquaman himself, Jason Momoa—a...
Wonder Woman also did amazing numbers before WW84 made the lowest opener for DC
Since the first movie, there’s no trust left in DC, the DCEU is already r making this movie a zombie, and WB hasn’t yet learnt from Ezra fiasco sheen they decided to persist with Amber.
The only real question is if this will be buffet flop then The Flash or The Blue Beetle?
IMO, the difference here is that this isn’t reliant on just the superhero crowd. People who loved James Wan and fast and furious movies showed up for Aquaman and I feel like they will again. The flash and blue beetle had way more of an uphill to climb being basically unknown outside of a cw show and the Snyder movies and there’s a big difference between what Ezra and Amber did. One went on a hugely publicized crime spree essentially and one got into a domestic incident that most people didn’t really care that much about outside of entertainment news spheres.
James Wan also has a lot more clout to throw around than Patty Jenkins. He also has a much better and proven track record.
I think this notion that people are checked out on DC or Marvel or superhero movies in general is very exaggerated. People will go to movies if they’re good and hear from their friends said movie was good. As long as the movie matches James Wan’s typical quality level I think this will not be a flop.
The last hit DC was Shazam and without any controversy and with good director, Shazam 2 was a big flop as well.
Wan may attract few crowd, but saying people care about DC is outlandish. Even worst MCU movie, Ant-man 3, made more than past 3 DC movies. There is no superhero fatigue, but there’s definitely DC fatigue, especially when it’s already going to be rebooted.
Btw last Wan movie was a flop, and it was his own genre, horror.
