$43,536,013 was the 2nd weekends final intake

Time and word of mouth are not the friends of DC's recent movies...

Looks like that early estimate was pretty good, less than 1% error. And still an awful performance for DC.

Killer Croc sucked.

Killer Croc was the most racist portrayal of any character that I've seen in a movie in a long time, if not ever.

 

[R.I.P. KMS]

Saw it last night, both me and the better half thought it was pretty good, entertaining at the very least.

He can't have been worse than Leslie Jones in the new Ghostbusters... (haven't seen SS yet). I am still shocked that the SJW crowd hasn't gone ballistic at the only relatively uneducated and by far the most stupid Ghostbuster being black, and pretty much a textbook black stereotype character - yet, I have yet to hear a peep about it.

terrible performance indeed - but the movies just have not been good.

I finally watched the movie this weekend and it wasn't that bad. My main complaint is so many of the members in that squad seem very useless. Maybe the movie just didn't display their talents correctly like the comic books do (I'm assuming). I'd give it a 6.5/10. The way they held back Diablo was annoying and it's obvious why they did that cause he's clearly the most powerful member on that team by far. He literally could have beat every battle a lone with the rest of the team just walking behind him catching up.

The trailer for Wonder Woman looked good but like someone else mentioned her battling soldiers is stupid. I'm also heavily turned off by her fighting WW2 soldiers they did the same for captain america which till this day is the worst Marvel movie in recent times. Fell asleep towards the end of it.

 

[Richard Cancer]

is it ww2 or ww1?

i personally loved the first captain america - i find it one of the most underrated origin movies made - just my opinion

It's set in WWI.

Ah ok couldn't tell if that was 1 or 2.

Mine too. I watched it again last night.

Loved everything about that movie. Evans nailed the character right out the gate, the supporting cast was strong, especially Cooper and Atwell, and Weaving gave good Red Skull. Always one of my favourite Villains, and one of the few memorable Big Bads in the MCU(if you want an utter bastard of a villain, you can't go far wrong with Nazis)

 

[berimBOWLoh]

it was turrible, just turrible. from the story to the acting. there isnt much redeeming things in this movie. literally faceless badguys they are blowing to pieces over and over lol


i was kinda intrigued by El Diablo, esp when he told the story about his family etc but then he does the typical, predictable corny ass shit and even says "my new family" lol wtf

 

[Kardashians]

Yeah I watched this last night and was getting bored and was happy when it was over lol. Idk. The characters weren't interesting to me and the flow of the film felt weird.

Also lul'd at "normal is a setting on a dryer", lul'd harder at this being said seriously. As if the hot topic outfits weren't enough . . .

The new family thing was definitely corny. And how long had he even known these people? I feel like not long enough, or well enough, to even be obligated to give two shits about them.

 

[Anung Un Rama]

Not the worst movie I've ever seen (Thanks "The Spirit"...).

Obviously a mess.
Robbie's Harley Quinn is the take home for most (and rightfully so), but I have to admit, I loved the look of the brother witch. He was awesome. He reminded me of Abyss http://67.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lmwmkgEcHi1qetaoro1_500.jpg, but not as cool. I also loved the fire dude's demon form. That battle was the coolest part of the movie for me. But it really just highlighted how bad the movie really was. No way that team, sans fire demon dude, defeats that witch, who oddly resorted to hand to hand combat...

The choice of ambiguously powerful villain with cliche zombie villains is exhibit A for creative mailing this in.
There were glimmers of potential; I liked the Joker side plot, but it was underutilized and shoehorned in.
How about Waller lamenting the loss of Superman, but glossing over the fact that Batman and the Flash are still out there and completely ignoring Wonder Woman?

Will Smith was the wrong choice. He is unbelievable as a bad guy, or even a tough guy.

Killer Croc... lame incarnation and wasted in this environment. Should have kept him shelved for the next Batman trilogy.

Flag. Lame.

Katana. Cool ass character origin. Get rid of some of the riff raff and she could have had a bigger role. Wasted.

Rope guy. Weak sauce.


Boomerang. Lets just pretend he's an interesting character for a second....

No, I know, but...


well will you try?


Just humor me for this next point.


Well thats not my fault!


Now your just being mean.


Alright, alright, moving on.

4/10


I'm hoping John Carpenter wins this lawsuit, too.

 

[Anung Un Rama]

His actions roles feel like he is phoning it in, films like Ali, Concussion and Pursuit of Happyness show me he is cable of better all around entries.

Will Smith always seems like he's about to quote some lame philosophical quote like John Jones.
Thats his gimmick. Tall, decent looking, non-threatening black guy who tells jokes, kicks ass, but read Nietzsche.

It cracked me up when he and his wife complained about racism at the Academy Awards or the industry, when he is probably Hollywood's whitest black Guy and both times he was nominated for oscars the winners in the Category were Black.

Don't get me started . When there is a problem in the world and attention is paid to a false equivalency that takes the attention away, and ultimately undermines the real problem .... nothing grinds my gears more than that (Bryan Singer comes close, tho). Will & Jada should have been shamed for that, imo.
