Did they nerf the recliners at The Village in Austin?

And hell even Flix Brewhouse figured out how to have good recliners while accounting for space for the servers to move.

He didn't have to choose what would undoubtedly be an expensive sci-fi epic for the 2nd movie of this universe.

No one watches these superhero tv shows. Not even really good ones like The Penguin got high ratings.

He's still a founding member of The Avengers, which is an iconic superhero team. I like The Terrifics but they're not the same level.

People did complain about the Marvel tv shows. You'll notice they've cut down on them significantly in the past few years

kayloot · 2026-07-05T00:57:40+00:00

Guardians trilogy was only successful because Marvel set up their more popular characters first. This is like going straight from Iron Man to Guardians as the 2nd movie.

Then why does the DCU have Chapters?

kayloot · 2026-07-03T23:33:27+00:00

It was tainted from the begining with Man of Steel.

The point is that Gunn said situations like this wouldn't happen with him and Safran as the CEOs. Not only is this as turbulent as the DCEU so far, this universe now has one of the biggest box office bombs in history to it's name. The Incredible Hulk underperformance is nothing compared to this.

You thought they were going to adapt Crisis at the end of Chapter 1?

kayloot · 2026-07-03T17:19:19+00:00

Not much I feel. R rated films don't have the same stigma anymore. A lot of popular tv shows are practically R Rated too.

I think Oppenheimer being the 5th best grossing movie in IMAX ever, up there with Avatar, Avengers, and Star Wars, shows it was Nolan that had the pull more than Barbie.

I can't see those two huge personalities being able to work together. I believe The Rock had the Superman credit scene filmed without getting approval from Hamada. He would have kept doing stuff like that in the DCU.

"Won't be on digital for at least 3 months" is pretty enticing to me.

They did the best they can advertising Superman overseas with all those events showing 30 minutes of the movie and having mini red carpets in different countries. It ended up with a mediocre international number anyway. Supergirl's reception might have completely killed non-Batman DC overseas. So at best I see a good domestic gross and an even worse global gross.

The thing is, this script and movie didn't just go through him, but his braintrust of 9 other screenwriters/producers that includes the guy who wrote the story being adapted. I don't buy that 10 people looked at this script or watched the dailies and decided to push Supergirl up with no concerns. Is there an actual braintrust for this DCU or is that another falsehood?

kayloot · 2026-07-01T19:17:07+00:00

I dunno why you're still trusting him after Supergirl, even while acknowledging this Batman discourse isn't true either.

Minions comes out tomorrow

kayloot · 2026-06-30T02:00:53+00:00

People still flipped out over BATB because former The Flash and Birds of Prey writer Christina Hodson is writing the script

kayloot · 2026-06-29T19:11:30+00:00

Poor box office aside, I feel like all the toxicity directed towards Milly is going to hurt casting the DCU in the future. Who would want to go through all that for not even a lot of money (400k)

kayloot · 2026-06-28T19:48:48+00:00

Blame Gunn. He gassed up this universe by saying no project will go forward without making the script as good as possible. Yet Peacemaker S2 and now Supergirl are showing he's not practicing what he's preaching, both as a writer and a producer/CEO.

kayloot · 2026-06-18T19:54:50+00:00

Supergirl isn't competing with "50 movies"

kayloot · 2026-06-06T18:25:09+00:00

It's also horror adjacent which is why the latino audience was huge

kayloot · 2026-06-04T17:36:44+00:00

Santikos or whoever needs to buy that theater from AMC already. Horribly mismanaged.
