Uh huh, just like Ant Man flopped because of COVID, anything to avoid taking responsibility for your failures
>>212973983 (OP)what a retarded
t. not american
I don't know if that's the reason, but most countries are pissed off at america because of tarifs. US allies getting hit with the threat of tarifs is retarded and helping to elect left-wing politicians across the world because no one likes to be bullied.
So... maybe?

>>212974166No. itโs never said in the movie
>>212974187Can you show us the Deadpool and Wolverine numbers real quick?
>>212974189Why is F4 bombing in the same countries? Hmmm
>>212974219That was before Trump destroyed our rep
>>212974080The new jurassic is flopping in China too. Its on track to make less than half of what Jurassic Dominion made in China just 3 years ago
>>212974230Why are bad movies no one wanted bombing? Hmmm
>>212974219Trump wasnโt president last year jeet.
>>212974234>>212974268Convenient cope, but I'll allow it since you're getting raped nonstop. Now explain Lilo and Stitch.
>>212974248That explains why youโre all consuming dinoslop nobody wanted. Fuck off you third world subhuman
>>212974248Then why did Flash do well in Asia?
>>212974230Because no one wants to watch uberqueer Pedro Pascal in every piece of media made, their costumes are stupid and lame looking and the fantastic 4 are and always will be unpopular heroes carried by their villains
This is what happens and will keep happening because the people making this trash don't like the genre
>>212974314So there is no anti-american sentiment? How about that.
>>212974308Lilo and Stitch a capeshit movie?
>>212974268>Trump wasnโt president last year jeet.depressing. 3 more years. cant we just elect some ned flanders motherfucker that doesn't get brought up in every conversation?
>>212974345Is Jurassic World an American capehsit movie?
>>212974347The anti-american sentiment applies ONLY to capeshit? How frivolous.
>>212974365In every sense, yes.
>>212974347Lilo and Stitch crashed and burned in China too
>>212974031he's crashing out. totally cooked and negative aura farming
>>212974031Ah yes, the world hates America now because of Trump, but domestically everyone loves America ...because of Trump. What?
>>212973983 (OP)Yes, but so is the world for hating Americans.
>>212974566Trump has made other countries dislike all seemingly American products because of his tariffs. Americans still like american products.
>>212974692What tariffs? What tariffs have ACTUALLY come into effect that are ACTUALLY effecting people to the point they wouldn't see a movie? How MANY countries is this happening in?
>>212974234>>212974268Literally only the fattest, most effeminate, most brainwashed freaks are crying about Trump at this point.
>>212974445Doesnโt surprise me. China is rejecting almost everything now. Which whatever. Fuck China.
>>212974842I voted for Trump, three times. I can careless if the rest of the world hates the US. Superman is American
>>212973983 (OP)>Is it my movie being shit that is the problem?>No. It's that the world hates America right now. That's it. It's why there were no successful American movies during the Bush presidency.
Is there literally anything left us won't sreech about and blame on Trump?
>>212974824>What tariffs have ACTUALLY come into effect that are ACTUALLY effecting people to the point they wouldn't see a movie?im sure they have some ching chong version of foxnews over there where they play trump clips nonstop. remember when Oprah mentioned 'mad cow disease' and the price in cattle dropped enough for her to get sued?

The American left once held the worst elements of the right in check. Subverting and destroying the left was pure brilliance. It just allowed for the right to spiral into some tea party retardation monstrosity. Thereโs no recovering from this.

>>212975002>>it's shit and communicates nothing>Every time.that meme actually got a small chuckle out of me. see, the right will agree with whatever the current statement from trump is...and when he reverses due to dementia or not being able to actually get whatever he wanted passed, they'll say he was just playing 4d chess. im just sitting here wishing for the apocalypse to end both sides. but getting some chuckles in the mean time
>>212974824People dont want to support American made products like hollywood movies because they associate them with Trump and his restrictive trade policies
>>212974943Learn American history. What President in the last hundred years has been blitzing countries with tariffs? No, Trump hitting China with 125% tariff has nothing to do with whatโs going on. China threatening to ban all US movies got nothing to do with it.
>>212975080People who watch capeslop do not give a single fuck about "restrictive trade policies" you stupid fucking moron.
>>212975083>they won't film another 28 ish film in UKGREAT NEWS
>>212974236That's still $70m Superman isn't getting from China
>>212975122I love comic books and free trade. I hope Superman destroys the Jones Act and longshoreman unions in the sequel.
can bayformers get the china money back?
>>212974268America's reputation was so much better when a barely alive corpse propped up by USAID was president. Superman would have hit 700m international like bomb your country: Maverick did
>>212975159Of course, Jurassic is a much stronger brand than Superman is. There have been 3 billion dollar Jurassic movies in the lasr decade after all. But its happening with all big Hollywood movies, not just Superman.

>>212975287Cuz he ainโt Christian, trad, or conservative. Heโs liberal and communist.
>>212975122They dont need to know the underlying rationale of Trump's trade policy to dislike it. He is making things cost more in their country, so they refuse to give their money to an american product like a Superhero movie. Thats all
>>212975287He doesnt. But this abomination of a character that Gunn created, does.
>>212974943Well if the movie does great in america but awful everywhere else, it kinda raises a question whether it's because of its quality

Lois Lane was clearly out of her element whenever she was doing something that wasn't her journalism career. The Engineer did whatever Lex told her.

how does james gunn have time to make movies he wont shut the fuck up every headline is about some new shit he said
>>212973983 (OP)No, it's because his movie is too woke and simply not good, maybe in America woke ideology is still on the rise, and maybe Americans still love capeslop, but everywhere else the vibe has shifted already, woke "positivity" is not cool anymore, and there's an international phenomenon called capeslop fatigue, people are really tired of the MCU-style superheroes.

>>212973983 (OP)How much is his movie about America, vs MCU's CAPTAIN AMERICA? Didn't his pivot to Krypto the dog meant to water it down to a kiddie/family appeal? Are the markets that dumped it really anti-American, or have better options at theaters?

>>212975806>American products are expensiveBecause Americans expect to get paid what they deserve. They won't work for scraps like everyone else.
>>212975986Hoover had nothing to to with the Great Depression. It was a long time coming.
If Trump is the reason capeshit is dying right now, then it'll be totally worth voting for him again for this reason alone. Fuck the Constitution, fuck the woke left and the woke right. Just kill capeshit with fire already!
>>212976488Superman feels pretty American thematically. Some of it definitely feels evocative of contemporary American politics, e.g. Lex has shades of Elon Musk and Peter Thiel. The message is about self-determinism and anti-ancestry. And it basically endorses foreign intervention. And aesthetically it's definitely reminiscent of silver age comics that Americans would be more familiar with.

>>212973983 (OP)Most people are either into heroes who are relatable (Spider-Man), edgy, or both (Batman). Superman is neither edgy nor relatable.
Although the movie had done ok so far. Gunn is just right that the Superman isn't as popular as he used to be.
>>212976230The 1978 Superman made a billion after adjusting for inflation. It wasn't woke trash, it was trad, pro-family, and pro-American, and it actually made people believe a man could fly. This movie didn't make us believe that men can cry because none of the "male" characters have any masculinity at all, not Superman, not Lex Luthor, not Guy Gardner, and not Jimmy Olsen, and Mr Terrific is just a cheap blaxploitation parody. Today, Superman '78 would have made at least $2 billion worldwide because it easily mogs any capeshit flick released since 2008, it mogs the entire MCU, it mogs TDKR, it mogs Sneeder's DCEU, and it easily mogs this shit.

>>212976616>Superman feels pretty American thematically. Some of it definitely feels evocative of contemporary American politics, e.g. Lex has shades of Elon Musk and Peter Thiel.So it's anti-American and anti-capitalist actually, huh?
So maybe Trump and tariffs have nothing to do with it flopping everywhere else. Maybe liberals outside Americs simply don't care about American internal politics and aren't as anti-capitalist as American leftists. Maybe they don't want to buy 10+ tickets per persin to artificially raise the box office numbers for propaganda flicks, as American leftists do? Food for thought.

>>212977026What does it mean to be anti-American anyway? If an Italian oppose to the policies of Berlusconi, he isn't anti-Italian. Isn't the anti-American thing a relic from the witch hunt from the 50s?
>>212976986>So it's anti-American and anti-capitalist actually, huh?No. There's another privately funded superhero organization in the movie that are good guys. And the Pentagon are shown to be just as skeptical of Lex as they are of Superman. Lex is just cast as the same sort of annoying, reckless egomaniac as Elon Musk.
>>212973983 (OP)>if you don't buy tickets to see my capeshit movie 3+ times in theater and buy $100+ worth of merch, you hate America, you hate all things good in the world, and are basically just a baddy bad guy

>>212974024It was woke, it was quintessentially American, and everyone hates it.
superman has never been so popular because Gunn superman is """"woke""" (which doesn't exist but which is also totally fucking awesome and everyone actually supports) and everyone but a tiny tiny tiny tiny percentage of online nazis are against """"woke""" (which doesn't exist but which is also totally fucking awesome and everyone actually supports).
but also everyone is against trump because trump is against """"woke""" (which doesn't exist but which is also totally fucking awesome and everyone actually supports) so the movie is bombing but not really because everyone actually agrees with """"woke""" (which doesn't exist but which is also totally fucking awesome and everyone actually supports) so the movie is bombing but not really.
so watch Superman to stand against trump and for """"woke""" (which doesn't exist but which is also totally fucking awesome and everyone actually supports).
also notice i didn't capitalize a single letter in this post, this shows i'm totally fucking apathetic and i don't give a fuck and so i'm cool so you totally agree with me and with """"woke""" (which doesn't exist but which is also totally fucking awesome and everyone actually supports).
Americans really shouldn't be surprised that their infantile comicbook slop doesn't play as well with non-stunted societies. Those dull movies are for dull minds.

Why can't anyone take responsibility for their shitty work anymore? Always with the excuses, or it's somebody else's fault. You see it in every aspect of life these days. It would be much more worthy of respect if they said "I guess we made a bad movie, we should try harder next time". But it literally never happens. It has to be Trump's fault. Unbelievable
>>212978658> I guess we made a bad movie, we should try harder next time". Guess Gunn shouldโve made Superman a chink.
>>212974972Except the market is all green.
>>212978575>normie approved fun self-mocking movie series, now with Deadpool and Jackman's Wolverine teaming upNext you will say that anti-woke is dead because GTA6 will make billions.
>>212978748the market went blood red when he announced them, then went green when he backed off.
the market no longer believes him because he has backed off so much.
not that I mind, I think being able to realize you are wrong and change your decision is very important in a leader.
>>212978755Not about woke. World markets are extremely hostile to US right now. Thatโs not even for debate. China stonewalling almost every Hollywood movie since Trump imposed massive tariffs on them. Only ones done ok are kid cartoons but not even close to years prior. Captain America was boycotted there, Superman was and F4 is tracking bad there was well. A year ago, Deadpool-Wolverine made 60 million in China. Venom made 45 million in China last year
>>212978629No
Aquaman is a globe trotting, Arthurian esque adventure with big LOTR style battles and world building at the end.|
It's also shot competently and have a bright colourful look to it that plays well overseas.
Superman 2025 is a big goofy blockbuster that is shot in a hideous wide angle 24/7 and has the colours of a superbowl commercial for your mobile phone plan
>>212973983 (OP)>pandering to spics and pro pali leftoids (poorfags who will not spend a dime to watch the movie)>flopsmany such cases
>>212975213i mean it could but were in a completely different era of the world now
back when the original transformers and even some of the early sequels came out it was prime movie theater time
hundreds of people would just be chilling in the movie theater lobby everything is like a fucking ghost town compared to then
It's funny how people who seethe about America are ALWAYS too afraid to admit what nation they are from because it is either a shithole or a loser nanny state. It really doesn't matter to me if our president is shit or what other countries think I'm always proud to be an American.
>>212973983 (OP)That probably hasn't helped matters but I think it's more about Superman not being as big an icon as the likes of Batman or Spider-Man. People still have this idea that Superman is too boring and too much of a goody goody two shoes. The mass market probably still thinks that superman but evil is more interesting even with it being beaten to death.
>>212979059Bayโs Transformers is an established brand so it might get the Jurassic World treatment. Or the chinks could see it as evil Americans
>>212979109> People still have this idea that Superman is too boring and too much of a goody goody two shoes.How can they think that after Snyderโs Murderverse where Superman is basically Homelander
Was the new superman really that bad or is this another case of /tv/ being contrarians?
>>212978629>Pedro Pascal >Jason MomoaThese two things are not the same.
>>212978297It won't, F4 has never been a big hit and the terrible cast is the worst ever.
>>212975676>China, Russia, Iran, India, Brasil and other brics are able to produce everything the world needs.Except a society where people actually want to live.
I wonder what goes into people not liking the movie internationally, do they simply not like positive messages or are they merely leery and do not trust anything too american? Like do people think Superman's message is a farce? I know Superman is american but he always struck me as being really iconic and compatible with international audiences so it seems strange to me. I wish I had more insigh on the happening.
>>212979194its contrarians, the movie was great if you like a hopeful and optimistic take on the character, something we have been lacking for a long time.
>>212974268Ryan Reynolds has been playing Deadpool since 2009.
Hugh Jackman has been playing Wolverine since 2000.
The movie was completely disconnected from the modern MCU.
>>212979194Not bad at all. It might not be your type of movie, especially if youโre expecting edgelord shit. But not even close to bad. Faggots on here, especially Snyder jeets trying to make people think is Madam Web or even lost Thor movie
Weird how this never happened after the globally-condemned invasion of Iraq
>>212975331>Well if the movie does great in america but awful everywhere else, it kinda raises a question whether it's because of its qualityI wouldn't say it's doing great in America, or comparatively awful everywhere else. It's done $236 million in the US which represents 57% of its gross. Compare it to the dinosaur movie and it's performing slightly stronger domestically whereas internationally its doing way worse. Do you think Jurassic World is performing better internationally than Superman because people hate America? Perhaps audiences worldwide are just tired of capeshit and this offers nothing that's new or interesting to change their mind.
>>212973983 (OP)No, its just this Superman is a manchild and only Americans can relate to that.
The rest are wondering why the movie feels like it was written by a woman.
>>212976640This comes from Americans, the creators od capeshit.
>>212979791>ITS LE HECKING HOPEFUL, WE HECKING NEEDED THISDo americans not see why the rest of the world thinks they are lame as fuck?
I hate capeshit more than I hate America
>>212975508Amerimutt seething that people around the world are actual men who want to see cool shit instead of a Live, Love, Laugh: The Movie.
>>212973983 (OP)He's right about having no idea how the movie is supposed to be woke. it wasn't woke at all.
The rest is just... a plethora of factors. Movies not making that much anymore i ngeneral, capeshit fat being waaaaaay past its prime, the banalization of the incredible, the DC brand being driven int othe ground after Nolan left, oversaturation of content, streaming killing cinema... and yes America not being a good selling point anymore, I guess
>>212973983 (OP)It's woke because superman isn't taking a knee to Israel and Russia
>>212974234Trump was the consequence of the left becoming woke and being universally rejected after a decade+ of crusading against normality.
We told you that you were going to get an opposite and equal reaction, but you didn't listen
Btw woke movies are what flop. I've never heard of a Trump movie flopping, because it doesn't exist
>>212976640but anime are popular specifically because modern westernshit is worse...?
>Superman getting BTFO by Jurassic World
>"It's not a flop bro"
Okay lol
>>212974972Without a fail.
>>212974692Other countries zoned out because all America is exporting is woke slop
A pity, after a century of american kino.
>>212976539Yeah and thatโs why you donโt have any manufacturing in the US
yeah, not watching any america trash until trump is gone.
>>212974824You can blame non-Americans for being stupid and worrying about things that haven't actually happened, but it's definitely the tariffs.
>>212975272What was woke about the movie?
and no, dogshit said by woketards outised of the movie doesn't count
>>212980082Nobody liked snydershit
>>212980067us being so terrible is exactly why we need a hopeful and optimistic movie.
our country is a joke and we need to fix it.
>>212975322He didn't create Superman, monkey
>>212975462You have seen the capmrip at 10x speed at best, and imagined the rest
>>212980265>Trump was the consequence of the left becoming woketrump was the consequence of both parties rejecting the working class in order to take corporate money.
trump spoke directly to the people who felt the system is unfair and promised to change it.
remember that trump was rejected by the Republican party at first, its only when the American people made it clear they liked him more than any career politician did they fall in line.
>>212976396>movie is too wokeWhere?

That's not reducing your debt, just paying the interest. It's currently 5%, if it goes up to 6-7%, you'll likely enter a debt spiral which will completely devastate your quality of life. Keep spending with a budget deficit and see what happens, retards. You've taken your stability and soft power for granted. No more handouts.

>>212974234What reputation? The world has hated the United States since the Vietnam War. That hatred intensified with the coups in Latin America during the 1970s and 1980s, and it boiled over with the wars in Iraq and Syria.
Donโt try to justify yourself with Trump โ the entire world has despised the United States for decades
>>212974842>betray your flesh and blood child because you're such a fucking hopeless and despicable NPC cuckoldMan, I wish there was a hell so people like this would be raped to death for all of eternity.
In Europe, people expect DC to be more serious and "adult", that's why these new wave of MCU-DC movies have failed.
>>212982554You can actually look up what they think. The developed world went from liking America more than not, to hating it at a near 2 to 1 margin with Trump
>>212981504
>>212981504>trump in office>everyone hates the us>biden in office >everyone loves the us
>>212973983 (OP)The world doesn't hate America enough right now nor for the right reasons. Besides, what statistical evidence does Gunn have to support this theory?
>>212976539>Because Americans expect to get paid what they deserve.They are getting what they deserve.
>>212973983 (OP)honestly it's why i didn't watch it so maybe

>>212982952the Great dread is upon I and I!!!
>>212975806>Trump is an idiot who assumes trade deficits must inherently mean foul playHe's genuinely retarded. Probably around 80-90 IQ.
>>212981194Superman is corny. And at this point looks like liek peopel hasn't accepted Superman in any form since the 90s/00s cartoon
>>212981578>avengers civil war was dropped todayremoved from its hype train?
Absolutely
>>212982854Really makes you wonder who he was working for
>>212975806He just uses the threat of tariffs to get good trade deals. The trade deficit stuff is just a pretence.
His whole self image is built around "the art of the deal" and being a deal maker. He wants to be remembered as making good trade deals for the US. I don't know how this isn't obvious to literally everyone on Earth.
>>212983160Good leaders like JFK and Roosevelt were popular. Shit leaders like Bush, Nixon, and Trump are unpopular. Any questions?
>>212982854It just seems like everyone wants America to be weaker, so obviously they want you to be lead by dementia ridden Biden as opposed to someone that won't take shit from other nations.
>>212982615In Europe people expect Superman to be Superman, not angsty grimdarkshit
>>212983248Found the retard who will still vote for the left in current century lmao
>>212983248If "good leader" means their policies were profitable to other countries, then I guess you are right.
The US playing world police allowed Europe and other US allies to spend less money on defense. In turn all of the NATO countries are beholden to US leadership. Basically a protection scheme that secured the US hegemony.
And the tariffs mean export heavy countries like Germany are getting pushed into a recession. It fucks their economy.
It's really not too hard to understand why Trump is unpopular outside of the US and why Biden who worked for international corporate interests was popular world-wide.
>>212983235>He just uses the threat of tariffs to get good trade deals.that would be great if he actually got any deals.
remember 90 deals in 90 days?
>>212983353>In Europe people expect Superman to be Superman, not angsty grimdarkshitMany Europeans seem to prefer anime and independent films over capeshit movies
>>212983372Leftists are higher IQ and more educated in every study. Blue states are vastly more economically productive than red states. California gave away 570 billion dollars while Texas received 346 billion dollars from welfare last year. Conservatives are inbred, obese, retarded rednecks and welfare queens while pretending to be productive and efficient.
>>212983474His failed rhetoric aside, he is still getting better offers from the EU currently, so why would not barter for more?
>>212983388you'd have a point if any of trump's plans were working but they are not.
the dollar is way down
our borrowing cost is way up
the deficit is booming more then ever
Epstein is being covered up
American influence overseas is weak
almost no trade deals have been reached
>>212983527call me if any of those deals actually go though. as far as I know only a single deal with the UK has been reached.
meanwhile out allies are trying to cut us out and create their own trade networks, this is a disaster.
>>212973983 (OP)>before donald, everyone loved america!
Superman isn't America's hero. That's either Batman or Spiderman. Part of Superman's issue with mass appeal is that he's an alien.
>>212975272>not understandingcome on... they know, they always know
>>212983582Few deals have been made, but at least the offers from the EU sound pretty good already. Basically free trade plus some benefits.
>this is a disasterEither way you shouldn't panic.

>>212977550in america artists are terrified of expressing themselves. curious.
>>212983747I think you are going to find that our loss of soft power in europe is going to fuck us, hell, that's one of the reasons trump cant close these deals in Europe right now.
>>212978243Itโs called the Pax Americana, not the Pax Othercountrianica.
>>212983475That's true. Despite anime getting worse since 00s (if not before), at the very least they are better, less mongoloid entertainment that what the west does
>>212983537Epstein is drama unrelated to economics so whatever. The US dollar and credit ratings were overrated anyway given the US debt, which is ballooning to the moon. The US is way too much in debt. The deficit is up, but the other NATO countries spending more on defense should allow a future president to cut military spending (which is the primary cause of US debt). I can see that Trump can't cut it at the moment because of Ukraine/Russia and China/Taiwan (and maybe he would just be assassinated if he tried it now to be honest).
>American influence overseas is weakThis seems like the only valid criticism in your list. Yes, Trump's actions will destroy the US hegemony in the long run.
Despite moaning publicly, the EU commission is already of salivating, since they were pushing for an EU army for decades, also for more independence from the US.
Russia is also moving closer and closer to China, but that might have been inevitable I suppose.
He isn't wrong. Superman has always stood for American ideas, and people don't like what they are now, especially with the lack of transparency with Epstein.
>>212983758The productive members of California are leaving to other states by the millions, what's it going to be like when it's just made up of sub-80 IQ shitskins?

>>212983802COPE! The world has reached a whole new level of hate with America. You guys just keep finding new lows. You can ignore it if you want to be retarded. But assuming you aren't retarded you are kind of spitting in god's face and the faces of all the legit retards when you make the choice to be as stupid as one. Some people are born retarded and don't get that choice.
>>212983980this is an impressive amount of bootlicking.
>>212984487Thank you for commenting
>>212983980Russia moves sideways to China actually and is at much better relations with best korea and various central africa states, they are realizing that Iran and China are all bark no bite and will play ball with west when push comes to shove.
>>212984487>trump promised he'd cut the deficit, but he couldn't(even though he did not even try)>nono, if the dollar and our credit rating sharply dropped it must be cause it was already over rated, it cant be trumps fault.you are doing a lot of coping
its important to hold our politicians responsible, not make excuses for them.
>>212984679I'm not American. I'm just describing the current political situation and Trump's motives as I see them. Since people here seem to miss the forest for the trees.
The US is an exorbitant amount of debt. You can make it look like everything is fine and dandy for a while longer (what you would have gotten from Biden/Kamela), but the chickens will come home to roost eventually.
The US needs to make massive cuts and repay debts and Trump's policies seem to go in the right direction there. It comes with a lot of downsides, like the loss of the US hegemony. Yada yada read my post above.
>>212973983 (OP)Oh for fucks sake. Maybe people didn't want to see yet another reboot of Superman? Maybe seeing the shit trailers turned them off? Maybe hearing about it having multiple cuts to fit the right focus group said more than Gunn can imagine?
Nah, probably muh blumpf whatever fucking shit that has nothing to do with the movie itself.
>>212973983 (OP)how is a movie where the white male "protagonists" is changed to no longer be competent and smart but stupid and weak so that a bunch of women and minorites can rescue him and tell him what to do not woke?
I mean Gunn also said that Supergirl is tougher then him and that she will actually be treated with respect since she is a woman and not one of those evil, weak and stupid white men
