I hope this will teach WB (and all the other studios) a thing or two about keeping a monster as their leading actor.

@jred201 Год назад

It was lose lose. They'd of had to spend a fortune to reshoot the movie with no guarantee it would do any better. He was literally in every scene. He's obviously done now.

@nanu421 Год назад

If you really think that big percentage of the international audience was interested in the allegations of a leading actor in the summer blockbuster they could watch, you are delusional. DCEU's condition and reputation among casual moviegoers is the real reason this movie bombed

@ThatGuy-jj3kz Год назад

WB was fucked no matter what they did. The movie was shot well before Ezra imploded, but the film kept getting delayed and rewritten (which ballooned their budget). I don't think a lesson has been learned at the end of the day (aside from never hiring Ezra Miller ever again).

@deltablueprint3186 Год назад

@ThatGuy-jj3kz The lesson is: Don't use people who have been dead for over 20 years and clips of Nicholas Cage Superman project that was never finished as Cameos to energize the DC fanbase.

@r.j.sullivan2104 Год назад

It’s not a mystery. It was Ezra Miller. The modern moviegoing audience does its homework these days and the studio underestimated how many “Joe blow public” movie goers did their research and were aware and chose not to support a film starring a highly toxic individual.

@fearlesshawk92 Год назад

Honestly this is one of the big reasons i couldnt get myself to go. If at some point the studio would have said something like, " due to allegations we a parting ways with Ezra, this behavior is not something we can condone or support. However we think our team has made a great film and we wish to support all involved with the production of this film and thank them for a great job." if they had said something like that, maybe i could have convinced myself to see the movie. TBH Keaton isnt a draw for me to see this movie but there are things about this movie that do make me really want to see it eventually.

@AlvinWazHere Год назад

You blame that? Why not blame DC Fans for not supporting any DC Property movies recently. Not just The Flash, The Suicide Squad, The Batman, WW84, Black Adam, Birds of Prey. These movies me be hot garbage but wheres the support from the DC Fan base. They love talking shit to Marvel Fans saying “We Have Better Characters, Better Stories, Better Villains.” Yet with all that their movies are complete dogshit and no support at all whatsover. Or is it because DC fans are actually not that big compared to Marvel Fans. If I were DC just Shutdown completely for another 10 Years. There’s no demand on their Characters at all. Black Adam and The Flash got their first Cinematic Movies and yet it flops. Who cares about the backstory situation with Hamada or Ezra. Nobody wants to watch these characters. Pull the plug and stop making DC Movies until there is demand. Period. No Money, No Profit

Two things where a big factor in this movies flop: 1. Ezra Miller himself: it’s no secret, Ezra is scum of the earth. The fact the WBD knew what was going on and chose to ignore it and move on without and consequences pissed everyone off. The only thing that actually happened was that Ezra was going to therapy. That was it. 2. James Gunn’s DCU Announcement. NOT JAMES GUNN HIMSELF but the timeline he announced for DCU.

@TheSpeedForceProject Год назад

Aside from the Ezra stuff and the fact that everyone has lost faith in DC movies, I feel like another factor of why the Flash bombed so spectacularly is because there were advanced screenings left, right, and centre. I get that studios have advanced screenings to determine how the public is gonna react to the movie, but the amount of them that the Flash had was absolutely ridiculous. I know people who have seen the movie multiple times without paying a cent. Maybe instead of inviting influencers (honestly their just people who are a part of a ‘cool club’ that’s highly exclusive) and their mothers to see a movie multiple times, how about having your little premieres and then releasing it for the public.

@jakegittes1864 Год назад

I saw it twice on opening weekend in IMAX, both theaters were fully booked. Audience seemed to really enjoy it both times I went so I was surprised by the box office numbers. Unfortunate but I don’t get their money either way so nothing more to do than hope the rebooted DCU is better!

I was confused as to why Aquaman of all flims made a billion dollars. Came out December 2018. It pretty much had no blockbuster competition. On top of being a good movie.

@deltablueprint3186 Год назад

Aquaman made most of it's box office overseas. Domestic wise it was a below average haul for a superhero movie. I've been saying this for awhile: Jason Momoa is a legit international Superstar thanks to his turn in Game of Thrones. He sells the movie and gets butts into seats way better than Dwayne Johnson.

@nikunjdixit3225 Aquaman came out in 2018 at the height of the comic Superhero blockbuster fad. Infinity War, Batman V Superman, Wonderwoman, Captain Marvel, Black Panther, The Incredibles 2 did more at the box office. Aquaman barely made more than Suicide Squad and Ant Man and the Wasp.

Amazing film

@change023 Год назад

For me, Ezra was never the problem. If anything, they might be the best thing about the movie. But, the cgi was bad at times to say the least, the humor felt very cringe and Josstice League at times. Keaton was cool but he was never “my Batman” (Conroy was more my Batman if anything). The cameos did not do anything for me (minus maybe one) and I do feel like they were the definition of member berries that had no real meaning or reasoning to the plot. The final act imo undoes the “lesson” of the film and while I did give a pretty big chuckle because of Ezra’s line delivery in that final scene, ultimately the film ended on a whimper.

Companies think they can do anything and get away with it. That the consumer will buy up everything they sell. I am so happy that this film is underperforming. The fact that WB didn’t say a DAMN thing about their main star’s problem irl and thought we would just go and watch this film anyway and just give them our money. People made a statement about this film the only way they’ll understand. Money. Do better.

The theaters were also reading the tea leaves for this. I went the Monday after it’s release and there weren’t even 10 people in my screening , yet there were so many showings listed. I was even surprised my theater still had 4 showings listed that day for Super Mario Bros which has been on digital for a while. But I knew it wouldn’t take long for the theaters to yank these extra Flash showings since no one wants to see it.

@markcrowson Год назад

They killed their own fan base by destroying the snyderverse, sharing waaaay to many spoilers and rebooting a universe and quitting the loyal fans! Lastly, I was able to see the flash at home in full high resolution. The movie experience is dead! This started with Bryan Singer oversharing Superman Returns and it's carried over to know make it hard to want to see a film. It also cost say yo much to take a family of four or five to the movies to watch something you can watch at home for free

@michaelm1221 Год назад

Don’t think spoilers are the things to blame here…spoilers, if ever intentionally leaked by studios will only be meant to hype the movie up, otherwise it’s somebody else’s fault that it leaked. Second, spoilers coming out is a very different thing from people filming it in theaters or leaking blue rays before it comes out. All movies leak if they have enough interest, No way home leaked in 4k images and immediately filmed upon release, heck John was a major source of the leaks, and that movie made nearly 2 billion, that not the issue.

@@markcrowson ?every blockbuster films nowadays have a gazillion tv spots and trailers and international promos, and that includes marvel films. It’s simply not a significant factor that leads to box office bombing. Where have you heard people complaining they know too much from dc films and so would not be going to the theater? Do you think those huge successful movies rack up their billions of dollars from first viewings alone? If the movie’s good and people have faith in the universe then they’ll go back for multiple times even having seen the whole film.

@SpriteShade Год назад

speaking personally, I can only see at most 1 movie a month in theatres. Choosing between a sequel to spider-verse, which the 1st one was amazing, or seeing another DC film that most likely would disappoint. I'd choose spiderman. Add the Ezra drama and it's an easy choice to wait till it's streaming.

@ardentdfender4116 Год назад

Movies are just another form of entertainment and unfortunately it has to also compete with other forms of entertainment out there that aren’t always talked about or factored in. This past weekend I didn’t go to the movies. Instead I sank 25 hrs into playing the new Final Fantasy 16 game release from last week. I barely even left the house just playing the new game. Now that was similar I’m sure for a lot of people who are fans of the game and who though could of maybe gone to see Flash some portion but didn’t. They just figured gaming was a better option and seeing Flash wasn’t a priority Ezra Miller aside. People have lots of options for their entertainment and movies by themself though huge isn’t the only form of entertainment when some some games are released around the same time.

@jaybling6687 Год назад

Thing is all the talk of all the hurdles The Flash would face in its opening weekend is less relevant in its second weekend. This is more about WOM, and it’s clear that a lot of those who went to see it didn’t see it twice or tell their friends and family to go see it, which means that audiences don’t really like this movie after all.
