It’s hard to really assess. We’ve only had films in general for a couple generations, so hard to assess “longevity” in that sense. But I expect a fewwill he talked about for a while yet.

This is insanity, all Disney owned properties get sucked off like no other by the media, and the only female woman property of DC. Coincidence all others by DC get buried? Pfft
It didn’t feel long to me. Strange.

I think DC are struggling for an identity.
Maybe because you were having fun with the daughters or summat? I had important shit to do and it was a running joke that the fucking thing wasn't over yet.

DC is late to the game, is their main problem, imo. I'm in full superhero movie fatigue, and I know plenty of others are too. And while I like DC's darker version of things, now they're going up against a 500 pound gorilla of Disney, and they can't make it budge.
There’s your problem. You didn’t really want to watch it. :P you can happily watch most films of in the right frame of mind. If you were doing it as a chore then it wouldn’t really work. Shame.

They also seem to me to be unsure how to play their best assets in a sensible manner.
Bullshit! I allotted 2 hours, and the motherfucker felt like 5 hours by the time the incessant droning and non-sense was done.

If they just let Bats kill everybody quick like, it would go a long way. Agreed.

if you were asking my personal opinion, i thought wonder woman was very cool. it'll be one that i watch fairly often, and i'll continue to talk about it, for as long as there is interest here.
My man, as long as we need female woman empowerment, talk away.
enh, i'm a horror fan first. for female empowerment, i'll go nancy thompson! :P
My man! *high fives*

What percentage of 25 year old and below have seen a Reeves Superman movie? My guess would be less than 5% and Burtons Batman 15%.

you should.

but whenever we talk superhero movies, i tend to think live action, so the incredibles is pushed aside for that reason, but i guess it really shouldn't be.

Just sounds like you went in feeling obligated to watch it rather than enjoy it. Never a good recipe for success.

I think there’s a lot of things they can do with Bats, but there is a big Nolan-like shadow over that.

Today's young adults are totally different because they spent most of their formative years only being exposed to select things. They get to pick and choose every hour of entertainment.

I spend the first two hours of my working day listening to the following:
- ear drum busting rap with some dude so auto-tuned it could be anyone
- a conversation about Drake
- A conversation about Kanye
- a conversation about which rapper would win in a fist fight
- a conversation about $200+ sneakers that are $200 for no particular reason
- someone whining about getting bbq pork on either those sneakers or their equally overpriced workout clothes they wear as fashion
- a conversation about "drifting" with their front wheel drive Kias

everyone is exposed to "select things". your employees seem to be exposed to the wrong select things. :P
