But with Hollywood accounting it will not be showing a profit.

The movie was horrible, but people will go anyway because its a comic book movie by a big studio.....

I will never understand why DC which has great source material cannot make a good movie.

And it was predicted to do much better. Considering all the cash they spent to make, market and promote it, it needed to. It had the highest drop EVER for a movie between Friday and Sunday.
The studio thought it would be a much bigger box office because you are taking arguably 2 of the top 3 most recognizable super-heroes and putting them in a movie together.
It was totally humorless and dark in tone, God forbid they ever crack a joke. The director said “We couldn’t put Jimmy Olsen in much of the movie, but we did something fun with his character.” They shot him in the head in the first 10 minutes.
Meanwhile with Marvel, you’ve got Deadpool cracking jokes, and setting records, you’ve got Guardians of the Galaxy, full of nobody has ever heard of these guys, that was just a lot of fun to watch, and the upcoming “Civil War” storyline which I can’t wait to see. If it’s at all like the other Captain America movies, it will have some humor, some tugging at the heart-strings and also, awesome action.
My prediction is that Captain America will die though and Bucky will take over the shield as the new Cap.
