A new Pixar Disney distributed kids movie has already knocked it down to number 2 spot

I know these characters and scifi franchises but I would call myself more of a 'casual fan' rather than a real fan

For firefly fans we know Joss and Joss was involved in this universe, he has been at Marvel writing comics like Xmen and directing movies like Avengers
there were rumors of Warner Bros or DC trying to get Joss for a while

The strange Snyder vision?



Can't really blame Joss for....lots of factors conspired and it may have been doomed from day one

The Warner Bros DC cinematic Universe or DC extended movie universe featuring Batman, Wonder Woman, Superman and all those other characters has kinda failed.

they have difficulties, the director Snyder lost his daughter

The History of the Cola Wars or Marvel vs DC?

Warner Bros could be in trouble? they once were top dog used to have huge box office franchise films, Lord of the Rings, the Harry Potters, the Matrix....those films ran their course
at one time Warner Bros was the only game in town with the comicbook super hero world, they had the campy Adam West and Wonder Woman tv show, the Saturday morning cartoons Justice League, they had Richard Donner and Christoper Reeves, the Tim Burton movies, the Nolan films with Neeson, Heath Ledger, and finishing on the Dark Knight Rises with Christian Bale, Tom Hardy, Anne Hathaway .

Along come other studios making a comeback as Warner Bros celebrated rolling around in their money made at the box office blockbusters, the James Bond movies are revamped over the years, Star Wars comes back and Fox buy the rights to Marvels Xmen when Marvel was almost bust, when they went backrupt in the 90s they sold off characters like Professor X, Wolverine, Storm, Cyclops etc. Marvel themselves launched their own studio the past 10 yrs and the movie with Ironman is a huge hit...nine years ago at the end credits in the Iron Man movie (2008) they put an after credits scene Tony Stark with Nick Fury...it sent shockwaves and a buzz around the comic-con culture, buzz around the world across the internet and the cinema box office game has never been the same since, and Disney recently bought Marvel making the company even bigger than before, t-shirts, video games, mugs, broadway, theme park rides you name it.

The one regret I have here is not fully investing.....like being some smart business guy, not buying enough in Marvel, I mean with a few thousand you could buy into them, eat up those shares and watch their product skyrocket?
its a hockey stick investment

I know some people are big into their geek nerd dom scifi universe I dunno the whole Marvel vs DC, Fox vs WB, Pepsi vs Cola, don't really pick sides, Kmart vs Walmart, Dueling Franchise Products ...I will buy whatever product is good or entertains...in the end they will probably go 'Shexxon' or this whole global corporate one enity thing you see in scifi like Firefly

The Wonder Woman movie recently by WB DC got good critical sucess, it was well recieved by critics and fans

I liked the Batman movies, the Tim Burton ones with Keaton and the recent Nolan films are classic
for some reason Warner Bros decided to make everything dark like say Batman or that Marvel 'Daredevil' show
Zack Snyder was directing many of the DC movies, he already had some critical sucess with the cult favorite Watchmen, his Batman vs Superman movie got mixed reception, Snyder's daughter Autumn Snyder died by suicide in at age 20....he then stepped away from the movie and Joss took over, writing new material and ordering reshoots of certain scenes
you can see the changes to the movies color, tone and dialogue onscreen while at the same time it does not feel the movie has to different directors, their is enough skill to make this part of the movie seem smooth

Overall the movie does not work, Justice League is tiresome, even the kids will be bored....wait for the tv movies, the DVD, the on demand downloads...

DC Warner Bros Justice League, the petition to get a “director’s cut” of a Synder-only version of the film has now reached over 100k signatures.

Oh yeah and depending on how you count the numbers up? Justice League Production may have cost as much as 350 million to make the movie!! an insane figure! I mean who the heck spends that much money? it sounds like it may have been its destiny to flop. Justice League could lose Warner Bros millions according to projection at websites like box office mojo etc The JUSTICE LEAGUE movie is set to lose as much as $100 million, a big loss reported following the Warner Bros DC film’s box office flop.

Now things might turn around yet....some movies start bad but have great legs or 'staying power' going the distance...others seem to be able to make money back overseas like say Europe, Canada, S.Korea, China, Australia etc but everything so far might point another bad bomb, a box office turkey...all signs point to a flop? The Aquaman star Jason Momoa hit back after bad reviews and poor box office for Justice League.
The recent report on movies in Forbes breaking down what the actual costs of the film are likely to have been including an estimated $150 marketing budget, suggests that, after much number crunching, the movie might end up facing a loss of $50-$100 million for Warner Bros.

Out of all recent Warner Bros DC movies the new Superman Man of Steel, the Batman v Superman movie, that weird Suicide Squad film and the new Wonder Woman movie....Justice League is set to be the biggest loser of them all

A Pixar, Disney distributed cartoony Mexican CGI movie named 'Coco' now beats Justice League down to second place at the Black Friday box office

DC superhero team up is going to make a whopping loss...easily defeated by the Third movie in the Thor film franchise.

The vocal segment of DC movie fans go crazy across the internetz, lost their minds when Whedon liked this tweet by Vanity Fair senior writer (and prolific podcaster) Joanna Robinson. Witness the Joss Whedon Steppenwolf tweet debacle of 2017:

#JusticeLeague’s Steppenwolf is the worst comic book movie villain of all time and not even Malekith the Accursed comes close. pic.twitter.com/gU59uaT4Ud

Joss Whedon Likes Tweet Bashing Justice League Villain
... is just agreeing saying I tried but failed? is he playing around? even trolling? or should he have been allowed do more reshoots?

Zack Snyder directed but had a death in the family before reshoots were finished. He tried to power through but eventually said he just couldn't do it and they brought in Joss to finish up. Rumor has it Joss decided to do extensive reshoots and edit out a lot of scenes.
