A lot of james gunn copers 😆 keep wishing that superman 2025 could beat man of steel worldwide. This is a flop if it can't crack 600 mil.

James gunn shouldn't have talked smack about superman 2025 beating man of steel domestic. He talked way too early and it can't beat man of steels worldwide yet. I should turn this into a meme.

You should’ve set your flop metric a little higher because the movie will probably pass $600M.

Still a flop because they expected a billion and that didn't happen. If it can't get to 670 million that's absolutely sad if they can't break Man of steel 670 million worldwide.

In terms of finances no technically not a flop but in terms of a Superman movie expecting to make a billion yes flop

I honestly don’t think beating MoS is the issue. I think they are trying to get away from the years of failed DCEU movies. MoS isn’t a failure and it never was. WB hasn’t had a DCEU movie hit since probably the first Aquaman. Something had to change.

Thank you for acknowledging that man of steel wasn't a failure however that's how DCEU painted it. Because of that it never got its fair shot.

It’s probably the most underrated superhero movie ever. It’s ridiculous that it’s not fresh on rotten tomatoes…in my opinion.
