    The first two Deadpools outgrossed every solo Superman film ever, it’s not just nostalgia.

    Deadpool 3 was always gonna clear at least 700 million

    Superman is very tricky. DC and WB spent years trying to make him more realistic and grounded because they think he's too corny and boring for the 21st century audiences.

    Then flash forward to now he's finally wearing those goofy trunks again.

    It's crazy Deadpool is an easier sell to audiences than Superman now

    Young people think Superman is corny, cheesy, and echoes of an older time in America. He simply doesn’t connect with younger audiences.

    This could change with a great film, but as of right now that is the truth

    They will. I’m just saying it won’t lead to the movie making a billion dollars because audiences don’t care about Superman like that right now.

    If it’s great, the sequel will hit a billion

    Yep I agree. Batman Begins was coming off Batman and Robin so It didnt make that much at the box office. Once Dark Knight came out they crushed buildings.

    A good first movie can lay the foundation down for more money for the sequel

    Yea the last few Superman movies had bad word of mouth due to their low quality.

    People liked the Deadpool movies.

    Also if we talking Reeves Superman movies too that’s just silly because movie watching habits were different and cape s*** wasn’t the cash cow back then that it was in the 2010s.

    You’re just comparing numbers and not looking at context for things

    Superman was in in three films in the 2010s and not a single one cleared 850 million

    Bringing up the Snyder films as proof that people don’t care about Superman is bad faith cuz a lot of people don’t view Snyderverse Superman as what the character should be

    All they have to do is literally copy paste Cap Character to Superman. WB was overthinking like a mother f***er lol.

    If anything Captain America in the MCU ripped off Superman from the comics

    If a Superman movie is well reviewed and written it’s doing gang busters I don’t want to drag this out in marvel thread

    I do work under Warner brothers and we have talked about this some at work

    I agree. Everyone knows who superman is. It don't matter if they're 3 years or 83 years old.

    Truthfully wb they know their games are making them more profit than the movies . A lot of resurrections about wb is absolutely true they are scrambling

    But if Superman flops they would chill on blockbusters for a bit

    I don’t see it flopping
