They know they can't just drop Justice League.

Batman vs Superman is their intro. They at least seem to recognize that the only big seller they have is Batman. So they throw him into the next Superman movie, and apparently use it to intro other members of Justice League. And there's a strong possibility that they're about to ruin him.

If you are right, they are in even more trouble than I thought. It would indicate that their line of thinking after Avengers was more "that guy wasn't even good enough to make a Wonder Woman movie for us" instead of "why did we pass on his Wonder Woman script?"

Biggest seller. Quality aside, Man of Steel still made $291 million domestically. - Inigo Aug 1, 19:42 10
- Which is just over where Dark Knight Rises was after the second weekend. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 1, 20:23
- Who are underestimating it? It will make a ton of money. - Star-Lord Aug 1, 20:05 8
  - Marvel is, imo. They're playing chicken with a much slower car. -- nm - Inigo Aug 1, 20:11 7
    - I disagree about a much slower car. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 1, 20:34 5
      - You're comparing it Superman. Why? You've already said Batman is their biggest draw. - Inigo Aug 1, 20:39 4
        
        Because I don't view this Batman as that Batman. Neither does DC or anyone involved in the film, apparently. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 1, 20:52
        
        That was Nolan and Bale, not Snyder and Affleck. - TWuG Aug 1, 20:43 2
        
        Adjusted for inflation, the Tim Burton Batman made $513 million. - Inigo Aug 1, 20:57 1
        
        This is not the Justice League. This is Snyder's Superman with Batman and a few others appearing in it. -- nm - Star-Lord Aug 1, 21:11
    - And Marvel will win. Because DC makes shitty movies. -- nm - TWuG Aug 1, 20:21
