I was really hoping Captain Underpants would beat WW at the Box Office or at least ratings. I guess that means memes and childhood fun has finally died to political baiting and 'look how stronk and independent and adult i am' mentality
I was really hoping Captain Underpants would beat WW at the Box Office or at least ratings...
it was an animated movie not made by pixar releasing next to a huge blockbuster capeshit film by one of the most strongest media brands in history and it was named captain underpants
you are fucking retarded
Right, Fuck Hollywood for having two good movies come out the same week. What were they thinking!
I actually liked WW, but your obvious falseflagging belongs elsewhere
inb4 the inevitable "Sup Forumsmblr" post.
No it was le womynz
>I guess that means memes and childhood fun has finally died to political baiting and 'look how stronk and independent and adult i am' mentality
Or maybe it means Dreamworks barely advertised CU, and what little commercials there actually were only lasted fifteen seconds at the most.
Because that's what happened.
This. I don't watch TV that often, but I haven't seen a single ad for CU. I didn't even know it was out until I saw a post on Sup Forums a few days ago.
anybody who wasn't in grade school from the late 90's-early 00's have no idea who Captain Underpants is.
>childhood fun has finally died to political baiting and 'look how stronk and independent and adult i am' mentality
Well someone hasn't seen the movie
I literally just saw WW today and didnt even know CU was out already.
Not joking.
This is a marketing failure.
But either way, WW will still win out with the little girl audience and the parents that will bring them to the theaters
Or maybe one is a much more popular character than the other?
Are you actually comparing Captain Underpants to WW?
Like I LOVE CU as much as the next guy but Wondy is one of the BIG 3 DC heroes in the popular culture. Captain Underpants is BARELY relevant to normies and that's usually because they saw the book in a scholastic book fair.
Yeah how could the single most popular female superhero of all time beat an animated movie about a guy wearing a diaper, damn ess jay UUs
...
...is this a new copypasta
>actually believing Captain Whogivesashit would beat one of the most iconic and well known characters from one of the most well known franchises ever
You deserve the disappointment you fucking retard, and I'm saying this as someone who liked both movies. CU is all right, but you'd have to have come from Sup Forums if you thought it was EVER going to beat Wonder Woman.
The Captain Underpants books still keep selling and the series released its last four books and started a new spinoff line in just the last few years
>shills
So many shills itt
the fact is wonder woman had a shill team and CU didn't.
shillfilms are for plebs.
It annoyed me the only CU exposure I had, and probably ever will, was a trailer before watching fucking horror movie Autopsy of Jane Doe. Worst theater mismatch I can remember.
You sound like a whiny bitch OP. I'm glad your movie flopped
>I wanted to shitpost about company wars like a fucking idiot but now I might need to put even an ounce of effort into it
>fucking feminists
Oh no it's actual retardation. I tried to tell CU fans that the film would do poorly because of it's poor marketing and how it was completely overshadowed by Wonder Woman and they said it would be a sleeper hit like Frozen
Not gonna lie, I would have liked to see Captain Underpants at least rival Wonder Woman's success in the box opening. It would have been amusing to see.
But besides, Captain Underpants is way below Wonder Woman in terms of relevance and fucking competent advertising (no, the internet doesn't count). As long as it makes enough money to turn in profit I'm content.
>As long as it makes enough money to turn in profit I'm content.
It wont
I fucking hate it when retard shut ins try to turn a good into anti-pc ammo. Fuck off.
And why not? It's budget didn't even reach 40 million. It's barely been 4 days. As soon as it's released in other countries it'll break even.
Then it's marketing would have at least been 40 million. The studio gets about half the box office take so it need to make 160mil before it starts making profit. It opened in 3,434 and ith such a poor opening most of the showings would look like a ghost town. With the success of Wonder Woman and the Mummy approaching a lot of next weeks showings of CU will be taken down and given to them so the theaters can maximize profit.
That's why not
Did Captain Underpants air at a bad time?
It aired at least 10 years too late
Don't worry, the real profit will be in the inevitable Netflix show Dreamworks makes
I didn't find the Captain Underpants books to be that funny growing up. I tried reading the first couple of books in elementary school.
look how shook drones get
The world needs more feminist idols user. I'm glad DC embraces feminism
It's Captain Underpants. It would've been lost to fucking Green Lantern.
>trying to start a flame war between cartoon fans and comicbook movie fans
>political baiting and 'look how stronk and independent and adult i am' mentality
None of which is in Wonder Woman.
>Yeah how could the single most popular female superhero of all time
Yeah, wondercunt, real popular, so popular people have to be told she's popular.
>Captain Underpants
I'd never even heard of this before.
They look to be two different target markets anyway.
But that user isn't lying though. CU may still be coming out now but it's peak was 10+ years ago. Hell the people who I felt were more excited about the movie were 20 somethings because it was a book that they grew up with.
Fuck feminism.
Women are disgusting, loathsome creatures, and our forefathers were completely in the right for treating them with annoyance, disdain, and why entire cultures treated them as a necessary waste of time and a total, and dangerous, distraction.
My life was better before puberty, before I started thinking about females. They're nothing but trouble and pain.
>100 million dollar opening for her very first cinematic outing of all time
I think she is "real popular" my dude
B..but dude's butts are all hairy and rough.
Millions of kids all across the globe grew up reading Captain Underpants, and kids still read them in high numbers today. Only a small fraction of that have ever touched a Wonder Woman comic. They might know about her, like how you'd know about the Easter Bunny, but you don't really care.
Either was either watching or get strange looks and the unlying implication of hating it because it had a woman in it, accusations of misogyny are incredibly destructive things that can destroy entire careers easily, so men are effectively forced to watch it to toe the party line.
You do realize you can hate women and not be gay right?
>Either was either watching or get strange looks and the unlying implication of hating it because it had a woman in it, accusations of misogyny are incredibly destructive things that can destroy entire careers easily, so men are effectively forced to watch it to toe the party line.
You need to get out more, and talk to real people.
But user, Wonder Woman was fun
And you need to stop drinking the estrogen laced kool-aid, buddy.
Women are trash, tripe, and their inclusion is a liability, a structural weakness hard coded into a film or game or novel, They're either there for awkwardly placed titties that kill the mood or to taut a political agenda, and them being heroes is completely laughable, they are scum, they know nothing of heroism, even on the occasions they 'sacrifice' themselves, it often comes across as a pathetic attempt of drama or attention grabbing as oppose to something tragic and moving.
>Fun
Fun is a meme word used to weasel yourself out of explaining things in detail, used by moronic, brainwashed peasants because big words confuse their drug riddled brains
>all across the globe
America not the world retard.
Then why didn't anyone watch Ghostbusters you cretin?
By your logic Captain Underpants should have crushed every cape hero
>Fun is a meme word
It's Dreamworks' cheapest 3D film by a wide margin. It'll make money.
The cruel last gasp of common sense and right thinking before being smothered by political correctness, Wonderwoman is an 'icon'.
Despite not doing anything besides being a woman, has no major accomplishments under her built that either Batman or Superman can reasonably do, and being a massive, unlikeable, turbocunt. She's a parasite basically, why do you think the DCAU was so against a wonderwoman series? Answer, because she can't hold one, she's awful, and no one would watch it, and back then, such a thing as accepted as perhaps, at most, slightly regrettable, but moved on. But now, imply a woman character, as a character, simply does not have enough to make a series or film of, you get accused of woman hating. Basic fucking logic, being overruled because women.
I'm not America. They were hugely popular where I live.
Russian here, first time I've ver heard about Captain Underpants was ina Wonder Woman threads like this one. Wondy is at least moderately known here from the Justice League cartoon a lot of kids watched.
Fun is the enemy of thought, fun is degenerate, it is like a drug, addling the brain and addictive, prompting not doing their duties and responsibilities to get a new high of 'fun'
>Fun is the enemy of thought
>Fun is the enemy of thought, fun is degenerate, it is like a drug, addling the brain and addictive, prompting not doing their duties and responsibilities to get a new high of 'fun'
I like this line. It's what a mind controlling supervillain would say as he commands his horde to build a nation.
>make work fun
>people work as hard as possible chasing the next high
boom. I just quadrupled your profit margin
It is WORK, its NOT SUPPOSE TO BE FUN
enjoy never being half as successful a candy manufacturer as willy wonka
That's fiction. I can also say women are capable of some level of emotional maturity beyond 'spoiled brat' and have a deep understanding of responsibility.
Does it make it true? NO, of course not
wow I thought I watched the movie because it wasn't directed by someone who I can't stand as a director and had a decent concept. I thought I went to watch it because seeing one of the big 3 in a movie with a normal structure would result in some cool shit.
Wonderwoman isn't a turbocunt, well, she can be depending on how she's written but she can also be badass as fuck or compassionate as fuck.
The real reason this succeeded was because comics are a big thing right now in the movies and wonder woman is a known character. Before superhero movies were a thing she'd be one of the only ones people could actually remember. If guardians of the galaxy, antman, dr strange and deadpool can get movies that do incredibly well of course wonder woman can on opening weekend at least even if it's terrible.
Ask most normies why they went to see it, most wont give a shit about any identity politics. Fact is, more people world wide know who wonder woman is than those who know who ANY of Marvel's characters are except Spiderman and Hulk.
Is that the Sup Forums copyapasta ?
Your queen feed you those lines?
>Disney cucks so abysmally retarded thinking some third rate glorified straight to dvd looking cartoon could compete against Wonder Woman.
Hilarious as Captain Underpants has a higher RT than most MCU movies.
Captain Underpants is Dreamworks
...
>Dreamworks
like i said. "straight to dvd"
They're like less ambitious Disney animations but with C-listers.
If you want to play that game we have at least five flagship DC movies with way lower scores.
Wait, you guys weren't trolling? You legit thought this shit would beat WW? Damn marvelfags really are stupid
True, but we didn't carry on how Captain Underpants was going to be more critically well received and be a bigger box office success than Wonder Woman for months. First it was going to get crushed by critics but then critics liked it at Iron Man levels. That's a lot of Evans memes down the drain, but they kept going. They said it was because of feminism CisBusters all over again but the audience scores came in and the movie was better liked than GotG2. Then they said it was going to flop and now it's doing better and is considered the highest grossing by a female director to date. (lol Matrix was considered directed by women). Now I'm just waiting for the box office total to come in when it's past it's screening longevity. But of course, I do expect to see the typical post of "Wonder Woman needs 400 Novemdecillion dollars to break even!"
This is literally a remix of you faggots saying how that dick joke cartoon was going to break Suicide Squad's streak.
God shut up, you fucking idiot, I don't care about your stupid little corperate war, I am objecting of this because female superheroes is obscene and trash, and you can expect me to return here when "Captain" marvel hits the film reels
Somebody tell me if the movie is worth seeing. I loved the books as a kid and the animation looks beautiful.
Why are you in a company wars thread, then?
>I don't care about your stupid little corperate war,
>Starts a corporate war
>Get's BTFO
>I...I don't care
>Is Literally SEETHING at the thought of a female hero
Wonder Woman is the gift that keeps on giving
>and you can expect me to return here when "Captain" marvel hits the film reels
Featuring Iron Man or some other Avenger. At least Wonder Woman didn't advertise her posters with dominant prescience of Chris Pine akin to RDJ in Spider-Man.
I came here to bash women superheroes. I HATE wonderwoman, because she is this stupid 'winning by existing' bitch with nothing going for her, all superhero women are in general absolute shit, but Wonderwoman pisses me off.
Can't wait for it to win an Oscar too.
what category? costume?
>this thread
I didn't realize Dr. Psycho browsed Sup Forums. Makes a lot of sense, actually.
I don't even think we have CU in our country.
Who hurt you when you were little? Was it rape? Or were you rejected by the ugliest girl in your class?
Fuck your weird fetish cartoon
Captain Underpants is a super hero too
I simply woke up to how utterly disgusting women are, they ruin everything.
You are a pathetic, insecure child.
You're confusing me for a woman.
Shut up faggot
You don't have to hate women just because you'll die as an alone virgin.
Like I'd willingly walk into such a blatant trap, sex with women is a one way trip to a hellish experience on earth.
>Not being able to accept that both are great in their own merit and that sales don't really affect the potential sequels for CU as it was made with only 32 million dollarydoos.
DCEU needed a miracle to happen in order to survive, and as much as you might hate comic-book heroic movies, you can't deny that plenty of them are at least enjoyable outside the obvious trash, and guess what? the miracle happened for DC at the end.
Also, please don't give this fella any (you)s, it reeks of underage. >93018631
Queer.
CU is completely irrelevant in CURRENT YEAR.
Why?
You know, back in your grandfather's day, such a blatantly stupid question would get you smacked.
Fuck your grandfather.
