Batman V Superman introduces Wonder Woman to the world ---> a year later: $820M box office.
Superman introduces Supergirl to the world ---> a year later: "Hey guys the partnership with KFC will help the movie breakeven"
#MillyAlcock says her version of Supergirl is “objectively” stronger than #DavidCorenswet’s Superman, but in a one-on-one fight, he’d just “let [her] win.”
This is so funny because that's exactly the response this puff piece wants but I didn't think anyone will fall for it. People are desperate.
The brand partnerships don't bring a single dollar to WB. Brand and the studio feed off each other for marketing. That's it.
There's a big aspect of this thing that can't be overlooked IMO: how are these brands going to react when, after investing a collective $100M on Supergirl, realise how unprofitable (and therefore, a bad marketing investment) this was?
SUPERGIRL reminded me of a time when a comic book movie didn’t need to be the next big thing, but simply tell a compelling story with heart. Its action may be too anonymous, but it has such a sincere approach to its world, characters, and tone that kept me invested. Solid stuff!
Esto no es BVS o la liga de la justicia, que reinicien el DCU despues de supergirl seria como que hubieran despedido a kevin feige solo porque el increible hulk fracaso
Funny details: it was yet again Deadline, and the same writer, who, 3 weeks ago, published the mathematically puzzling breakeven point of Supergirl (even before announcing the promo partners).
Very interesting timing!
So let me be clear: Deadline "forgot" that MoS earned $170M with promo partners when calculating its profits in 2015, they "forgot" when arguing Superman V MoS profits and now they're "forgetting" the same thing once again to prop up Supergirl?
What happened to journalism?
I genuinely wish all people who want to enjoy this movie to love it, and I hope it is better than what I fear it might be.
..but this whole "let's give the new DC universe a vote of confidence"? Nah.
If this project fails it's 95% because DC Studios are doing a terrible job.
Con un excelente, bueno o pésimo debut en taquilla. Vayan sin expectativas y disfruten la película.
Si te gusto Superman o no, de igual forma amaras esta película. No se dejen llevar por comentarios de haters, démosle un voto de confianza al nuevo universo de DC.
Silver lining: not one DCU bootlicker will ever be able to argue this movie's (or universe's) success without inadvertently agreeing by default that Man of Steel made $275M in profit (or, as we say in the industry, more than twice what Superman 2025 did). 💫

For those who keep relentlessly asking, I don't post about presales on every movie. I'm not getting paid to post here and don't care to (mostly) shit on movies that aren't doing well. Me not commenting doesn't mean anything either, could just be too soon. Each film is different.
No matter your opinion on the film or his films in general, you have to admit that the successful campaign to get Zack Snyder’s Justice League released is one of the greatest triumphs for film, and for artists in general I would say, of the 21st century
@SupesBatsy exactly, everything after was just random and/or meaningless sequels that did nothing for any kind of overall story. they were more worried about pushing snyder out than having a back up plan so in the end they wasted over 1B on those movies for nothing
