    Well, good riddance. I like Affleck's Batman but if he doesn't want to play the character anymore, that's his decision. I never thought he would be Hugh Jackman or RDJ but I didn't think he'd want to be done with the role so quickly either. And he said it a few days before JL hits. Clearly the guy doesn't care. Maybe now they can start looking for someone who'd actually be dedicated to playing the character for an extended period of time.

    To be expected once Disney dropped a Star Wars movie into that month.

    I do agreen with HandofPrometheus, though. Wonder Woman is probably a better Summer movie. But we'll see.
    Though much is taken, much abides; and though
    We are not now that strength which in old days
    Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are,
    One equal temper of heroic hearts,
    Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
    To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

    --Lord Alfred Tennyson--

    WW wasn't Snyder or have all the problems in production JL has had also WW opened only with Captain Underpants in it's first week. It bet The Mummy when it opened the following week which was a failure of a film. Then WW lost the top spot the following week to Pixar's Cars 3. Justice League will make money but losing the top spot that early isn't good because it stops momentum and Coco could do that. WW and Spider-Man Homecoming did slow burns during the summer slowly taking in more and more money but JL has only till December 15 IMO because Last Jedi will probably kill all it's remaining business. Which isn't good given it's reported to have a 300 million dollar budget and once you add marketing and advertising and the theater take this film has to make a lot just to break even.

    Yeah especially since WB needs this thing to bring in over $900 mil to be considered a success. It’s really scary that it won’t even get a full week to itself.

    They must be confident JL will do well in November then!

    You guys are worrying for no reason, this isn't the summer. The last thanksgiving Pixar film did luke warm and besides Coco won't be released everywhere internationally. Coco has less appeal than a dinosaur too, given a choice I'm sure most kids will pick JL over Coco.

    Trying to stay optimistic. He's staying non-committal and probably careful given the atmosphere in Hollywood right now. Just give us the solo and JL 2 PLEASE.

    Coco is doing great with reviews and I have a feeling this movie is really going to take off and do phenominal. Still seeing this movie friday morning but we shoudln’t count coco out just because how the dinosuar pixar movie did.

    So the story wasn't true, it makes sense actually. Gal already likely renewed her contract once WW became a giant success and even if she did want out she would probably be obligated to appear due to contract. I'm still gonna side eye some of her comments on all the harassment allegations happening though.

    And it got bumped up to November 1st.

    I really think Dick Grayson should be the DCEU Batman. It's either that or they just reboot/retcon. I say introduce Dick in Nightwing and have a sequel to the Ben Affleck solo Batman with Batfleck passing down the torch.

    So Ben Affleck stars in BvS, JL, the Batman, JL 2, and the Batman 2 with Dick Grayson taking the cowl.

    Reviews for kids movies don't matter much though it's always about appeal, why else do film sequels like "The nutjob 2" exists?

    Yeah I understand ratpac dune was always the financing arm and never had producing credits, would be very silly for gal to fuss over someone who is so far away in the background.
