That jeets got you on the ropes, fight him in his thread instead of crying and starting a fresh one ya little bitch.

>>213604349
Is there a cultural reason why you jeets are so obsessed with the synderverse? Is it because the movies are dark like your skin?

You haven't answered my question, jeet. Does your gorilla mom not teach you manners, jeet?

where are you from OP? Your timezone suggests New Delhi or a bugpeople country

Omg look at what you've done OP...You lured out those angry jeets from their basement and now /tv/ is a mess again...

>>213604498
>everyone is this jeet i am running away from
Very cool.

You disneyjeets are the ones spamming the board THOUGHIE

>>213604426
Why does Superman 2025 cause the mentally deranged to act like this?

>>213605127
Their synderverse is gone forever. So they're now in the 2nd stage of grief - anger. I kinda feel bad for them sometimes, ngl

>>213604305 (OP)
Let’s compare shit that actually came out during the same pre Covid time frame. How did MOS get destroyed by GOTG which came out only a year later?

>>213604305 (OP)
It's not exactly hard anon.
>Which is bigger? 570 million, or 670 million?
670 million is bigger.
>Which year came first? 2013, or 2025?
2013.
2013 is bigger. This should not be.

>>213605424
Hey did MOS get beat by GOTG a year later?

>>213605359
>OP made a post to counter synderjeet
>This dyslexic nigger made a comment to trash OP because he thinks OP is a snyderjeet
I'm speechless...

>>213605726
I know what OP was doing. But it’s retarded comparing apples to oranges which is what jeets are doing. Superman box office would be considered a disappointment in 2013. It was a pre digital and Covid time period. Today’s landscape with theater attendance at the lowest since Covid and shit hitting steaming within 35-45 days it’s a success. Only huge spectacle movies can make a billion now. Spider Man, popular kid movies, etc

>The film cost $225 million and another $125 million to market globally
Lmao I didn't know indians were this gullible

>>213605973
>Jeet refuse to believe something with proof because it contradicts with his belief
I guess the moon landing is fake and the earth is flat to you as well.

>>213605973
Movie had no big name actors. Highest paid actor was Holt at 2 million. Rest got paid under a million. So tops 15 mill in talent. 100 mill on FX. 80 mill on locational filming. Put it around 225 reported buster. 125 mill on promotions seems about right. Wicked at highest highest promotional budget at 170 mill, which included two separate Super Bowl ads, an entire float at Macy’s Day Parade on Thanksgiving and full on blitz before and even after the movie. You couldn’t escape it

>>213606074
What’s crazy is Gunn paid himself 15m. Kinda undoes the whole cost saving effort.

>>213606074
>Wicked promotional budget at 170 mill,
Lmao you people will believe anything the internet tells you

>>213606117
I don't think Gunn gets to decide on his own salary. I think it's decided by the top management. But yeah, him getting paid more than the actors combined is crazy

>>213604305 (OP)
>>The film cost $225 million and another $125 million to market globally
lmao it's always x2.5, especially for big movies

Why is being called indian considered a insult.

>>213606213
He IS top management

>>213606241
It's a scapegoat

>>213604305 (OP)
I have no dog in this fight since I DGAF about supey-man, but the key word there in your headlines is "grossed" - you cut that number in half to account for theatre take, so assuming the Variety numbers are accurate then the film has to gross roughly 700mil to break even.

>>213606193
>Nothing on the internet is true!!!!
Ok, go live in a cave or kys then.

Damn, you right. I forgot he's in charge of the entire DCU now

>>213604305 (OP)
idk about retards slapfighting over which capeshit did better. Usually the formula is
>official budget
>add 1.5x for marketing
>add 2.5x to that new total for theaters' cut, residuals etc
>now you have the breakeven point
idk if that makes you piss and cope that's how we always calculated it since people started liking the movie version of ToRtanic.

>>213606336
and I meant to write idc both times but I'm retarded, fuck it.

>>213604305 (OP)
They can do math just fine. It's just one really dishonest snyderjeet who spreads false information hoping others are dumb enough to fall for it.

The fact that both sides call each other ‘jeets’ will never not be hilarious.

>>213606476
The fact that they're both right is even funnier.

>>213606241
You know why

>>213604305 (OP)
This

>>213606646
Superman has almost 50% less ticket sales

>Hey what flavor of ice cream tastes better? Chocolate or vanilla?
>Hurr durr explain why vanilla loses to mango!
I'm not even a snyderjeet you stupid nigger and even I can see you pulling your hairs out at the fact that a 2025 movie couldn't beat a 2013 movie even when it has inflation boosting its numbers compared to a movie from 10 years ago.
Because you're assmad at the revelation that the incessant and whiney MoS critics aren't as numerous as you first thought. And the numbers prove it.

>>213606476
The irony is that neither Man of Steel or Superman did particularly well in India. Man of Steel was the 17th highest grossing American film in India in 2013, even behind films like 'The Croods' and 'Thor: The Dark World'. Similarly, Superman didn't do that particularly well there either, being massively outperformed by Jurassic Park and F1 in particular. It also is doing worse than Mufasa: The Lion King, Final Destination, and even Fantastic Four. So the whole nothing that India loves Superman is wildly incorrect.

>>213606507
nope

Penske media shills like Variety reported the Marvels budget of $250 million. Then the UK tax credit application revealed real budget of $370 million just like the Ohio state government tax credit application revealed Superman’s real budget of $366 million.
>The movie, which cost $250 million and sees Brie Larson reprising her role as Captain Marvel

Oh shit that's the whole reason isn't it? Before there wasn't any good measure to quantify towards which side of public opinion Man of Steel fell into.
The Snyder hate cult could claim that most fans hated MoS, and although the audience review was and still is positive, they could handwave that away by pointing out that most movies rating are skewed positive, or by claiming that the reviews were being artificially manufactured.
And so they could make absurd claims such as
>"Snyder cultists are a loud minority! Most people hated MoS or were lukewarm at best!"
But now we do have a measure to quantify public opinion, one that is a lot harder to handwave away. Box office. It's proven that the only "loud minority" that existed this whole time, was the Snyder hate cult.

>>213606737
Over 90% of the people who like both Man of Steel and Superman (2025) are white. Though Superman is more popular with casuals and comic book geeks, Man of Steel (and all of Zack Snyder's filmography) has developed a cult following among right-wing chud types.

>>213606912
The only person I've ever met who liked the snyderverse was a middle aged black guy. Though he's definitely an incel/chud who watches youtube grifters like Nerdrotic and Critical Drinker.

>>213606117
I mean he's the director and the writer. He also leads DC Studio kek.
That's pretty normal.

>>213605359
KEEEEEEK!!!! GUNNCHADS WIN AGAIN

>>213606670
...Because going to the movies is far less economical and you have things going to streaming shortly after anyway.

>>213606882
Is this actually the real numbers or just estimates before they start filming? Does it take into account any incentives to cut costs? If these numbers are true then the average capeshit movie is just throwing money down the drain if it doesn't make at least a billion, so you have to wonder why these movies even keep getting made.

Gunnjets LOST.

>>213606882
>if we made the numbers up then the movie's flopping
Why are pajeets so bad at coping?

>>213606939
It's hard to actually meet snyderjeets since they don't usually leave their basements.

>>213604305 (OP)
Snyderfags are such pathetic, snivelling fucking losers. They all need to be violently murdered.

>>213606646
Snyderfags can't read

>>213606737
So both snyderjeets and gunnjeets are murikans all along

>>213607135
And people form the UK. They liked both Man of Steel and Superman as well. The character is basically just really popular with white people.

How much are the overlords throwing in money to pajeets on both sides
Anyone who has this much interest over man of shitting street or pooperman is a shit skin

>>213606882
The figure for UK TAX RELEIF PURPOSES will be made as high as possible, in order to claim as much money knocked off taxes as possible, and to do that they'll include a lot of "creative accounting". Things like total expected lifetime residual payments inthe contracts of stars and the director, or wages that are actually paid by Warner Bros, like those of the accountants for example which are included in the assessment for tax as they were doing stuff for the film, so can be counted in an overall total.

Ever wonder why the "special thanks" section in the credits is so long these days?

Also note that it is quoted in $ not £ as it would be to the British Tax Authorities, they have done that to cherry pick a day with a favourable exchange rate for their accounting to bump the "UK costs" up and make it seem bigger.

Its unethical but not illegal, like the difference between tax avoidance and tax evasion. If you are getting a $370m movie tax break on what is really a $250m movie then you're saving a lot of money. That money can then be taken off the $250 budget meaning the film may have even cost less than $200m.

Dodgy accounting is where most films make most of their profits, its been like that almost as long as there have been films, how do you think Jews got such a strong presence in the industry in the first place?

>>213607399
sorry saaar but bloody componys wont lie in dey taxes saar superbenchod very flopp saar

Damn Snydercucks are taking a beating in this thread

>>213607260
There’s chads who want a fresh epic take on the character and there’s troons who want pure slop under the guise of “character accuracy”

>>213607399
Right. The UK government lies in order to give $92 million of UK taxpayer money to Disney in a tax rebate for the Marvels production in the UK. Disney lies to the UK government under penalty of perjury and jail time. Only 4chan schizo anon speaks the truth.

>>213606737
It was BvS that started the trend there

>>213604305 (OP)
Saar I am not understanding! Please be explaining that amount in Amazon gift cards saar!

>>213607767
Oh you sweet summer child

This movie failed.

Is not even about profitability but being the opener of a new DCEU.
But if just 600m is the ceiling, how can the lesser heroes be viable?

>>213609707
Iron Man and Batman Begins, and indeed Man of Steel, weren't mega hits either. Whether or not this is a true failure will be seen by how well the movies that follow do.

>>213609736
I'm more excited to see Supergirl than I was for Superman. But that's because I wasn't expecting to like Superman as much as I did and now I'm excited for what's next. Not sure if others will feel the same, but I'm hoping the films that are not directed by Gunn are just as high quality.

>>213604305 (OP)
>randomly attacking Indians for doing nothing
???
why??

>>213609779
It's a dumb meme. This notion that India gives any tin shit about Superman is dumb. They like the exact same dumb slop as every other non US/UK country.

>>213604421
Reminder that hands have been posted in these threads. The results are
>Snyderbros post hands more than gunnfags
>Gunnfags rarely post hands
>Snyderbros are always white
>Snyderbros look fit
>Gunnfags are usually brown
>When a gunnfag is white, he's so fat you can tell by the wrist
So let's settle this right now. Post a time stamped hand pic (you won't).

>>213609806
What does color matter? This is a movie and TV board

>>213606241
lmao, you really asking?

>>213609707
Ideally you would move forward with Superman 2 to properly build and assess but Gunn is skirting to Supergirl and Clayface? on top of all the other nonsense. Peacemaker is NOT Deadpool he’s trying to make it out to be. But the whole idea of a cinematic universe is stupid. Superman should’ve been treated as a standalone high quality product like The Batman, not a passable investment. I kid you not I saw a comment on r/movies that said Gunn needs to make 5-7 solid movies to make get profitable. Like what the fuck man.

>>213606725
>not a snyderjeet
>immediately cries that MoS is popular ACTUALLY
Does not compute pal, sorry.

Just witnessed a rape, not sure how i feel about that.

>>213609707
This 'failed' movie will be remembered by more people than you ever will. So I guess you're a failed human?

>>213609841
LMFAIOOOO

>>213606646
Supercuck has LESS ticket sales you jeet moron

>>213609927
Fewer. The correct word is FEWER.

>>213609913
you should feel repulsed (unless you're an indian).

>>213609914
I dunno man, this thing was 400M, is not that hard to make something bigger with that money.
This is more like just another superman returns.

>>213609736
The supersdudes era is mostly over, redoing stuff from 20 years ago will not cut it.
This superman was ok but you need way more, you need to do THE BEST if you want to stick to the formula.
