Will this movie be a hit?


With the recent underperformances of multiple superhero movies, do you see this one bucking the trend?

I liked the Beetle from the 80s/90s but this looks weak.

But who knows, Shazam was a nice surprise.

Box office tracking looks horrible.

This movie and Aquaman 2 are the tail end of the old regime at Warner/DC. I'd like to see it do well, but I think they're probably prepared for another poor performance. James Gunn has said that if it performs well it may be incorporated into the new DCU. Who knows, maybe it'll be a sleeper hit. Fingers crossed.
