Thread 213799448

The way Snydercels adjust for inflation is a complete meme, Snydercels. You love to smugly throw around “a-a-actually if you adjust MoS’s box office it’s bigger” like you’re economic geniuses, but you’re leaving out the obvious part: money from 2013 LOST value.
MoS’s $670,145,518 isn’t magically “worth more today”, it’s worth LESS. If you really want to take inflation seriously, that pile of cash has the same buying power today as $475,483,734. Over a quarter of its real value gone. This means Gunn's Superman destroyed it.

Shut the fuck up nigger both movies are beyond shit. It's time to shut your fucking mouth about these supershit movies once and for all. There is no value to these movies or your opinion. Just shut the FUCK up

>>213799448 (OP)
Anyone attempting to use inflation to argue box office values has no understanding of finance and is probably brown.

And I thought the marvel vs DC fights were embarrassing.

Retard making a retarded thread.

Snydercels have no response, they are just making monkey noises lmao

superman's underperformance has raped the minds of capeshitters

well this is never being made

>>213800188
It’s already got a release date for July ‘27 haha

>>213799493
Lex?

>>213800048
Based, we keep winning DCchads!

Here’s the proper inflation-adjusted comparison (into 2025 dollars):

Man of Steel (2013)
Original: $670,145,518
Adjusted: ≈ $921 million

>>213800721
No, as I explained above, this is a meme way of adjusting for inflation and makes no sense. Inflation makes money lose value, not gain it. If you put 670 million in the bank in 2013, it doesn't become more valuable thanks to inflation. Your cope makes no sense.

>>213800771
your cope is pointless. if Superman really is getting a sequel the box office is irrelevant.

>>213799448 (OP)
Which amount of money is greater, 600 million or 670 million?

>>213799448 (OP)
inflation is not deflation, superhomo got sodomized by murderman.

>>213800048
rian where is your star wars trilogy?

Why are you idiots still on this shit. The movie is getting a sequel fast tracked. Production starts next year. It’s over

>>213799493
Now say that again without crying.

>>213801492
They never got past discussions. This movie has already got a release date for the sequel. Cope harder faggot haha

>>213801531
its just going to make less than breakevenman

>>213801555
Script already done and it was Zaslov not Gunn fast tracking it

Superman movies are always underperforming. He’s supposed to be the numbero uno superhero, yet not a single one of his movies has earned a billion dollars. Even Fast & Furious and Jurassic World movies earn more. Same with Batman. While one Batman movies has earned over a billion, Fast & Furious, Jurassic World, and even a few Disney live-action remakes like The Lion Kang have earned more than most Batman movies.

>>213801671
Incels on suicide watch

>>213800721
It all adds up. DC had a good name before Snyder. TAS and animated movies, Arkham games, Nolan movies. Warner Bros also had a strong reputation at the time

In comparison, leading to Superman. DC has a bad name. Gotham Knights and Suicide Squad games, failed Snyderverse etc. Warner Bros has a bad reputation nowadays too.

>>213801671
>will be writing
>Gunn said in an interview it doesn't have a script

>>213801671
Zaslav is a retard and he hates movies

>>213799448 (OP)
Granny panties.

>fantastic 4 and superman had great opening weekends
>both flatlined and now are going to barely break even
>old magazine websites and legacy media are now playing damage control

wasn't expecting that.

>>213801671
Reminder:
Warner Bros. Discovery has around $60 billion in debt — about $35 billion is long-term debt, and the rest is short-term debt and other liabilities.

The majority of their films are box office bombs. Fantastic Beasts and the DCEU failed. Joker 2 failed. As far as I know, only Barbie, Minecraft, and Sinners have made money recently.

DC and Fantastic Beasts failed as franchises,( but reboots are imminent. )The CW was sold for zero dollars.

Zaslav’s salary in 2022 was $39.3 million. In 2021, it was $246 million

>>213801842
Storyboards are done and Gunn answers to Zaslov. By all accounts Gunn wasn’t planning on working on the sequel until after Supergirl but the WB wants it out by ‘27 and already got the release date

Superman dropped 53% its second weekend. F4 dropped 67%! it’s second weekend.

anyone with an once of capeshit knowledge knew how this was going to go. Gunn abruptly shifting gears and throwing out this "Superman Saga" is not the win his fans think it is. It shows that WB is still as retarded as ever. I wonder if the merger with paramount (should it go through) will change anything.

>>213802732
Wait, Paramount now owns parts of Amazon like Reacher and is going to own WarnerBros? Including HBO? How is Paramount so powerful?

>>213802707
It’s a lot more difficult now and will only continue to be. Only been one billion dollar movie this year, Lilo & Stitch. Family movies or you got to make it a big event movie to get people in large numbers to see a movie instead just waiting for streaming. I don’t see large theater chains sticking around much longer

>>213802904
Minecraft movie got close to a billion (another film that chuds swore was going to bomb)

>>213802835
No. If anything, Amazon will end up buying Paramount. Though they shouldn’t because basically going to have full monopolies on entertainment

>>213802945
Turned into a big event movie with whole chicken fight. Just like Barbiehimer turned into an event thing. Avatar will be because 3D abby Nolan because he uses IMAX gimmick to get people to see his shit in theaters

>>213802946
But Amazon released Reacher but now Paramount owns it

>>213803009
Minecraft also went to digital after 35 days, just like Superman, even though chuds maintain that this is a sure indicator of a massive bomb

>>213801718
>number one superhero
do you live in the 1940s? spiderman since his debut has always and will always be massively more popular

>>213803214
Makes spending 360 something million on Superman 2025 all the more stupid. He's not even DC's biggest draw.

>>213799448 (OP)
How the fuck does inflation for an old movie make its box office go DOWN???

>>213803283
Because that money is now worth less. That is how inflation works.

Doesn’t really help that MoS came out during peak capeshit era and still earn less than half a billion compared to any MCU movies then

>>213803375
and it had Chris Nolan's name attached to it

>>213803214
AFAIK Superman, Batman and Spiderman are at the top with one year one selling more, another year another one

>>213803375
And it made more more than Superman without adjusting for inflation but it still wasn't enough to get Cavill a solo sequel. Something we're already seeing with Corenswet.
Superman will be a big box office draw. You have to keep the budget around 100 million. That means stuffing the movie with a lot of filler to pad out the run time and maybe ten minutes of VFX heavy action.

>>213800771
So one dollar in 1920 has the same buying power than a dollar today?

>>213803667
No, if you put that dollar in the bank in 1920 then it will have significantly decreased in value today. That is how inflation works. Yet, chuds pretend that inflation makes the value of money INCREASE over time.

>>213803708
>if you put that dollar in the bank in 1920 then it will have significantly decreased in value today
So you agree that the dollar in 1920 had more 'value' as in it could buy more stuff than it can today

>>213799448 (OP)
This post is still cope.

Gunntroons are not taking their defeat well I see. Sucks to suck.

>>213803553
Not at the box office. Superman gets smoked by by almost everyone. He has one film over a billion adjusted for inflation. Aquaman and Wonder Woman did better than MOS during the DCEU era adjusting for inflation.
I don't really see how anyone can justify giving him a solo film anymore with this box office performances declining overall.

>>213803790
Correct, the money Snyderman made lost so much of its value that it is now worth less than the money Gunn's Superman made.

>>213803088
Are you implying Paramount is even a zit on Amazon’s ass?

where's the Singercels

>>213799448 (OP)
based

>>213801555
he makes nothing but gold so I trust it'll be the best or second best Superman film like Superman25 is currently the best Superman film

>>213803579
Except Superman is a good movie while Man of Steel is a bad movie, and the DCU is entirely good so far where as the DCEU was a threat against DC fans

>>213804158
This must be trolling, but in case it's not. The point of inflation adjustment is to make movie box offices comparable within the context of their time. To make things comparable, we want to know what a person today would have to spend, in order to draw even with the buying power of 1$ in the past. Back in 1920 you got more stuff for 1$ than you do today. If you want to get the same amount of stuff of what a person got for 1$ in 1920, you'd have to spend 16.15$ in today's money. That's why box office numbers for older releases are corrected upwards, to convey what the equivalent of "today money" an old movie's box office was worth.

>>213805149
So if my money loses like 30% of its value due to inflation, it doesn't matter because I just think about how much I could have bought with it back in the days?

>>213799448 (OP)
They both flopped so who cares. You're comparing shit to shit.

>>213799448 (OP)
WRONG! Snyder told WB to buy Bitcoin. Now Man of Steel box office is worth 3 trillions.

>>213799448 (OP)
OK, so Man of Steel made more money than Superman 1978? Got it.

>>213802200
retard, they don't break even from the box office number because they don't receive 100% of the box office.

>>213802732
> Only Supergirl and Clayface are confirmed.
> The Superman saga aka just 3 movies.
> Everything else is in in development or shows nobody watches.
I am telling you after 2027 Gunn is getting fired. He's only around to complete the Superman saga (trying to make 3 films sound impressive. ) and then leave. I can't wait to watch him crash and burn.

>>213805233
you're the dumbest person i've seen on /tv/ this week, and that's fucking impressive. but what else would i expect from a capeshit sports team retard

There is nothing more pathetic than losers fighting over what made more money when it’s not even your money. The movie is getting a sequel so who cares

>>213800188
It'll probably just be another "Superman and friends" type of movie since they don't have confidence in Superman being able to hold its own, even though in my opinion, everything to do with Superman/Clark, his family, and Lois was by far the best parts of the movie because everything to do with the Justice Gang, Ultraman, and pretty boy Lex was just shit.

>>213805993
It’s a Superman-Supergirl vs Brainiac which is set up from the start and why there is a Supergirl movie next year.
