I wouldn't say flop. Least case scenario isn't the same when we're discussing two of the most popular intellectual properties of all-time. - David Apr 20, 14:07 3
- I would say with toys and collectibles, and with DVD sales, they will be well past 1.2 billion. -- nm - groiny Apr 20, 14:19 2
  - Merchandising is obviously huge, but that's not the point here. Batman and Superman were going to sell toys anyway. - David Apr 20, 14:21 1
    - i agree for the most part, but i think that you can't isolate the success or failure of a property like this to the movie itself..... - x Apr 20, 14:38
Not a flop. Just not really a success. -- nm - Dark Callisto Apr 20, 14:05 4
- well, even to consider it not a success. -- nm - groiny Apr 20, 14:06 3
  - It seems like huge money to you and me. - Dark Callisto Apr 20, 14:10 2
    - If they continue onward past WW and Batfleck, I wonder how much the other projects get trimmed in. - Will Hunting Apr 20, 14:14
    - And sounds like they were betting the studio on it. -- nm - nic to be determined Apr 20, 14:11
