I read on Business Insider that JL could lose WB up to $100 Million. However, this is only possible if the movie craps out at $545 Million Worldwide. Even at a worse case scenario, it will stall make more than that. I did the math and here's how i think the movies financial legs will play out. So i took all the previous DCEU movies and averaged their legs with the domestic and foreign openings for JL.
Best Case: (Average the legs of MOS & WW) >Domestic: $310 Million >Worldwide: $1.043 Billion
Worst Case: (Average the legs of BVS & SS) >Domestic: $205 Million >Worldwide: $663 Million
Most Likely Case: (Average legs of last 4 together) >Domestic: $260 Million >Worldwide: $890 Million

Evan Cook
look at this dude. this nigga actually has the audacity to even THINK of a best case that comes out with a billion for JL.
best case IS your fucking worst case homie.
Lucas Walker
Not an argument, and yes i think i have the AUDACITY to think that the movie can make a billion worldwide in its BEST CASE SCENARIO, its not uncommon for a movie to make less than $100 Million Opening weekend and still make over a billion worldwide.
Julian Young
For some reason you're under the delusion that worldwide will be better than suicide squad even in your "worst case scenario" learn to do math you fucking moron
Logan Howard

Wanna bet? (^:
Ayden Cook
God, I hope it under performs, I can't stand these crappy flicks, I mean I can enjoy a comic book movie like Blade or Hell Boy but these Superman and Ironman flicks really make me cringe.
Jason King
i did do the math fucknut, i averaged the financial LEGS of the last 4 DCEU movies then applied that logic to the openings of JL. how the fuck you figure it will be the same as Suicide Squad? SS opened $50 million less in foreign markets in opening weekend. By your logic the movie will make close to WW did worldwide. 325.1/133.7=2.431 x 93.8=228.1, then 420.5/133.3=3.154 x 185=583.6. Domestic: $228.1 Million Worldwide: $811.7 Million
Nathan Hill
yea ill bet, ill bet the $8.73 in your checking account faggot
Samuel Hughes
I'm honestly surprised that this has made 100 million domestic. Surely even the dumbest consumer could tell that this was going to be shit?
Jaxson Cox
How can I become a paid shill.
Austin Gray
>This is only possible if the movie craps out at $545 million. So according to you, the movie only needs $645 million to break even? Even though BvS, which had a smaller budget, needed $800m?
Asher Walker
That's cool OP. But did you consider the fact Coco is coming out? Then The Last Jedi is coming out?
Its over, Justice League got cucked out of the cinema
Carson Foster
i'll ask you the same marvelfag
Hudson Rogers
yes i did consider, i made 3 different scenarios but i guess you dont have very good reading comprehension
Owen Cooper
We on the latin America hemisphere can only spend money for 1 movie per month. This month's is going to be Coco. Sorry m8
Blake Jones
no i never said how much it needs to make to break even. and BVS cost around the same as JL when you account for its large marketing budget.
Ian Nelson
>yes i did consider I don't think you did, all you did was calculate an average for each prequel. You have to consider that none of those movies had to fight Pixar and then Star Wars like Justice League has to.
John Price
sorry abuela, but the world doesn't revolve around Brazil. Go kick a soccer ball in a favela.
Henry Roberts
>claims he wants 1 billion international ticket sells >proceeds to shit on international countries My amerimutt friend, you are hilarious
Isaac Price
I'm not a marvelfag, mate, I just want some of those sweet rupees.
Ryder Cooper
Man of Steel opened to more than $20 million domestic than Justice League, had the lowest drop of the low rated DCEU flicks, and only came up with $225 million domestic and less than $700 million worldwide. What happened? Monsters University opened the week after and fucked it. What's happening with Justice League? Coco opens next weekend, Star Wars two weeks after. It's fucked, might cross $600 million if they're lucky, either way it's a huge loss.
Easton Hughes
>MOS had Monsters Uni, WWZ & Despicable Me 2
>BVS had Jungle Book & Secret Life of Pets
>WW had Despicable Me 3, Transformers, The Mummy, & Spider-Man
Christian Wilson
>>WW had Despicable Me 3, Transformers, The Mummy, & Spider-Man No wonder it earned so much money. All those movies flopped
Ryan Jackson
yes cause the continent of Asia only equates to whatever couch change that Brazil can offer. Get real.
Kevin Harris
>he thinks China will save him Not with cyborg on the cover
Zachary Collins
My bad, MoS made $291 million domestic, what I said still applies
Hudson Bell
It has already underperformed. Justice FUCKING League made less money on opening weekend than IRON MAN 1.
Pathetic.
Ayden Flores
not really,
The Mummy made $409 on $125 budget Transformers made $605 on $217 budget Despicable Me 3 made over a BILLION on a $80 budget Spider-man made $880 Million on a $175 budget
Colton Garcia
really, then why did open at #1 over there i wonder...
Brody Anderson
cool, then that would fall under my worst case scenario, which is already in the top post
Luis Stewart
Good.
Wyatt Bell
you know funny thing is, if JL had the same Domestic and Foreign legs as man of steel it would be over a billion worldwide. 291/116.6=2.495 x 93.8=234.1, then 377/73.3=5.143 x 185=951.5 234.1 +951.5= 1,185.6 Billion
Lucas Jenkins
I suspect using the legs of MoS and BvS gets you closer to the actual numbers than your Most Likely Case
Blake Miller
but how would only using those 2 movies be any more accurate than any of my other calculations
Julian Reyes
Think about what MoS, BvS, and JL have in common
Chase James
Dude I love JL even with WB and Whedon fucking up the game but no way it crosses $750M
Brody Garcia
Bad WB management screwing up the director vision? Particular the last two.
Josiah Turner
Wow that's really cool bro. How long did it take you to do the math on that?
Julian Murphy
why all the number crunching faggots does anybody geniunely derive any sort of pleasure from this I fap to scat porn but I swear this feels was more sick
Leo Johnson
Just got back from seeing this. I hope it barely makes 200 million domestic. Whedon should be in Jail for every Cavill reshoot with his face cgi'd. CEO of WB should absolutely make plans to resign. Flash was HORRIFIC. Affleck/Jeremy Irons are already checked out you can see it in their eyes. This is, I am sure, nothing but a terrible professional embarrassment for those involved. Holy fuck.
Aiden Gutierrez
Reboot?
Jose Lopez
just STOP!
Sebastian Parker
SS, WW and BVS all came out in spring/summer. They weren't going up against oscar season and star wars.
Nicholas Long
>All those movies flopped
Did they fuck! He didn't even Include Pirates of the Caribbean and that movies worldwide total fucked up Wonder woman and GOTG2 foreign box office and made much more foreign than any Capefilm this year .
Ryan Nelson
All foreign bo.
Jayden Rodriguez
You are operating under the impression they'd have seen WW or GOTG if they didn't see Pirates.
Aiden Wilson
Think about it, Man of steel, Beavis vs Superman, Suicide Squad, Wonder Woman, Justice League, five movies that sucked and have no future, what can you do, keep on digging that hole or start fresh?
Levi Evans
It underperformed because Snyder didn't make any teaser on par with MoS/BvS. Doubt he had any passion left after BvS. Just give the studio what they want and it call it the day. When MoS and BvS were being shown off in trailers, they were marketed like huge paradigm shifts for the genre. For JL it was WB desperately mimicking Marvel instead. That cost them their biggest advantage. They became a lesser version of Marvel.
WB should've given Snyder more freedom for JL so he could actually make some decent trailers to hype the film with. But then each trailer was worse than the one before and Comic Con '17 trailer had even more quips than Avengers Meets Purple Melon. It reeked of desperation - especially when replacing Snyder with fucking Whedon. Now without Snyder or Nolan people have seen just how clueless WB is.
Austin Rodriguez
Listen you filthy capeshitters, you want to save DCU? Hire Raimi and Del Toro, offer them a good deal and let them direct the next two movies.
Brody Evans
but I like Snyder's films, it's just the audiences are retards who want Whedon quips
Thomas Clark
I don't get why everyone always considers a movie a flop based off opening weekend numbers. You guys are aware that movies stay in theaters for months right?
Eli Richardson
>but I like Snyder's films That's why you fail and that that is why WB fails, you people forgot that capeshit needs to be an actual movie and not just capeshit, you think that if the MCU started now it would be successful? It wouldn't, it keeps making money because it's already rooted, people are getting sick of it but they always find a way around it, for how long I don't know, but that system isn't working with WB, they need to let go of that type of capeshit and make capeshit that are actual movies, movies that can still be watched twenty years from now like Tim Burton's Batman, not shit like Suicide Squad etc, that no one wants to watch more than once.
Owen Cooper
its not going to lose money shit going to be in theatres for awhile and it have to make aleast 600 million. its already made half that in one weekend at worst it would just break even.
Anthony Roberts
Do you think mercedez and Gillette got the publicity for free??? Or fanta? Or all that fast food?
Think again retard.
If you want to be autistic at least do it properly, think for a minute.
Isaiah Smith
the stupid slut of my younger sister went to the cinema with her classmates. They watched Justice League. I got so mad with her for supporting this trash movie.
What should I do to make her pay for the 7 ticket sales DCEU got thanks to her stupid ass?
Carter Hill
The problem is that most of the good directors don't want to touch capeshit.
Owen Rodriguez
>its not going to lose money
Robert Phillips
Hugs and tickles.
Landon Parker
Raimi did the good Spiderman movies and Del Toro did Blade 2 and the Hell Boy movies, like I said WB just needs to let go of capeshit.
Easton Hughes
Not everything in life needs to be presented in argument form poltard
