Suicide Squad vs Guardians of the Galaxy

Subtracting the total brought in by the Chinese market (where Suicide Squad was not released), at the end of it's 15 week run, Guardians of the Galaxy made a worldwide total of 676,842,399 USD. Conversely, in 5.3 weeks, Suicide Squad has brought in a worldwide total 699,407,853. Why is the media still spinning it like this movie was some sort of failure? Are critics just throwing a tantrum because audiences aren't listening to their expert opinions?

Reply to this post and taylor swift will suck one of your guys' dick tomorrow

Because it was shit

Because people actually liked Guardians of the Galaxy while Suicide Squad was a fucking mess.

So was Guardians of the Galaxy.

Both are poop

No it wasn't.
It was good. That's why DC made a mockbuster version.

Suicide Squad
>Joker
>Batman
>Harley Quinn
>Will Smith
>Flash Cameo

Guardians of the Galaxy
>a bunch of whos that even the own movie makes fun of how unknown they are
>Howard the Duck cameo?

if Suicide Squad was good it would have made 1 Billion easy but DC keeps fucking up

Why do you care about this?

Guardians was actually good, along with Iron man 1 and Cap 2 those are the best marvel capeshit movies

Thank Mr. Skeltal

yay

worth a shot

Wouldn't that be something

>41% of the audience were either African American or Hispanic, and according to ComScore's PostTrak, they gave the movie an 81% positive score (via Deadline).
Reminder that if you like Suicide Squad you're more likely to be non-white

SS is over $700 worldwide at the moment, the international numbers are not updated.

Hey I know you

The intl numbers are one week behind.

boxofficemojo.com/movies/?page=intl&id=dc2016.htm

My country just updated yesterday's numbers half hour ago, it passed $700mil.

Shit taste

For you, she will

test

One had Will Smith and an ensemble of iconic villains
The other had...

>moving goalposts

I liked Shake It Off. As long as she wears that black girl outfit.

Metacritic & Rotten Tomatoes always seemed to be something a white person used to determine what they watched.

>The other had...
Literally the Avengers in Farscape clothing.

I don't think it's Marvel vs. DC wars, or whatever they call them.
I think it's bitter liberals hating over Ghostbusters fail.

Taylor Swift is shit. Thank god Kanye outed her as a lying cunt.

>guardians was actually good
Hello, Reddit!

>SS too subversive for China

another win for DC and SS

Katana triggers them.

...

Worth a shot.

watch it be the #1 pirated movie in China

Last I heard they were still trying but it's 99.9% not going to be in theatres there.

GotG was a much better movie.

Gunn is the next Raimi

what about Bluray or web download? or is it banned entirely?

...

thsnk

Really?

>not cara

This a straight only board, please leave

I mean what is the point of replying now.
After she has gone through all these anons she will be tired and probably have herpes on her dick.
Nobody here wants to share the same hole with the rest of Sup Forums do they?

But you told me SS was DOA and it would make less than that X-Men flick

people understimated the hot topic audience

The only reference to Thanos since Avengers and like 8 movies in the universe behind it

Suicide Squad is way more reddit.

Sure bro, that's why all the numale critics were begging people to not see it.

>tfw I got a bigger hard on reading that feminist bloggers saying "ok fanboys you won" when the BO numbers came in than watching Margot Robbie's barely covered ass

Move what goalpost? You don't measure a movie's success by lifetime gross alone. Nobody does this.

GotG protag: Alpha who loves casual sex
SS protag: Stronk womyn

I saw Guardians and thought I enjoyed my time
I saw SS and wanted to go back in time to warn myself not watch it

Hot Topic faggots are not welcome on this board

...

>DCucks need to subtract an entire market to compete with a movie about literal whos.

So.. why are they telling people that Suicide Squad flopped?

They are also saying that it needs somewhere like "1billion" to get even like what the hell how did that happen?

Im not into capeshit but for real, there's some sort of conspiracy going on against DC here

Because they make bad 2edgy4quips movies about literal whos

>it's fair to compare one movie that opened in China and other that didn't guise

marlelcucks getting triggered their flagship is being humilliated by a movie about some slut and a pyromaniac mexican is the funniest thing ever

Is the DCEU the new Transformers franchise?

Stronk Woman?

No, user. Wonder Woman wasn't in this movie.

>Slutty Harley Quinn in hotpants for horny male viewers.
>Katana was non-existent.
>Enchantress was a belly dancer.

Maybe Amanda Waller for stronk female? Will Smith was the lead.

>there's some sort of conspiracy going on against DC here

Protip: there is

Who's my guy, tho?

>Subtracting the total brought in by the Chinese market
How about no

>gloating that a shitty movie made a lot of money
That would be like Marvelcucks gloating that Iron Man 3 made 1.3 billion. They're still awful movies that don't deserve that level of success.

>Will Smith was the lead.
BLACKED

Really? The largest collection of alt-rightist is somehow where all the numales are?

This movie is about literal whos though, not the same as an IM flick

>Harley
>Joker
>Batman
>Will Smith in the lead
Nah.

I think he meant Guardians

>>Harley

Who?

>>Joker

I thought Ledger was dead

>>Batman

I thought Bale wasn't doing this anymore

>>Will Smith in the lead

Who?

More importantly, why do people keep comparing the two movie?

Considering the extensive marketing campaign, it needs to break 800 million to not lose money, which it won't do.

...

IT'S GONNA BE ME, I CAN FEEL IT.

>iconic
The general populace doesn't know any of them, if you're talking about iconic to comic book nerds then GotG had iconic heroes aswell.

Zoe Saldana starred in Avatar the biggest movie ever

>Suicide Squad isn't literal whos
boy it sure is salty marvel shill in here

but guardias was good

>Joker
>Batman
>crazy marketing

>vs

>lol that movie about some guys nobody knows
>and a talking badger

wasnt me bra, anyone predicting a flop with a movie filled with Batman characters and Batman is fucking stupid

>The general populace doesn't know any of them
The Joker, Harley Quinn and Batman are super popular and Will Smith is still an worldwide star

They both feature a team where the team gets set up in the same movie and they are released during summer.

And they are knock off versions of the dirty dozen

>GotG
>not insane marketing

Not even counting bought reviews

They probably compare them less if Warner Bros hadn't panicked and tried to force the tone of Suicide Squad to match GotG in post.

>Marvel is doing well
>DC is doing well
In the end, we all lose. Capeshit is never going away.

Taylor is pure, she would never do something like that.

Why doesn't DC buy reviews? Especially for Rotten Tomatoes?

I'll do it.

this, we're fucked

Yee

>butthurt dcucks
Guardians was made a lot better than suicide squad. Just admit it.
>if
>getting beat by who's
That's sad a well known cast got beat by a talking racoon and tree..
Dcucks going to commit sodoku

>conspiracy to get dc
>I'm not a dc fan boy but there's a conspiracy!
Butthurt dcucks

Guardians and Sui-Squad are not great movies, but Guardians had competent pacing and editing. Yes, Guardians is formulaic. Formulaic is still easier to sit through when compared to poorly done, choppy storytelling (you may personally disagree, but the vast majority of the population finds all the Marvel formula movies more enjoyable than SS. For the sake of the argument I'm referring to the majority, not all the patricians and kinographers here).

People don't refer to these blockbusters as flopping because they don't make money, they "flop" because they don't recieve critical acclaim and leave a bad aftertaste when done (whether or not critical acclaim is important is not my argument here). SS and BvS would be seen as equals or higher to Marvel movies if the studio was more focused on making a well edited and paced film instead of trying to make them under some random runtime.

I know OP's post is bait, fuck you.

...

Because Disney owns most media outlets.

>people didn't like SS
>yet everybody went to see it

???

Couldn't they just call it anything that doesn't have suicide in the title? Its not like international releases with a different titles are uncommon.

>This a straight only board
>Sup Forums
Whatever you have to tell yourself, you closeted homo.

That's why they love Ghostbusters.

Reminder that libcucks are all white. If you did not like Suicide Squad you're more likely to be a cuck.

Both of these movies are fucking trash. Squad deserved the shit it got. No idea how guardians garnered such stellar reviews. Such a cringe inducing Reddit fest
