:cool:At least for the U.S. folks, JL *may* do pretty well 'coz of the upcoming holiday next week. E.g. past the first weekend, when entire families wanna go do something besides shop for presents and/or are getting on each others' nerves.

After two weeks in a row of box office dominance, Thor: Ragnarok will certainly not come out on top this weekend, with that honor almost certainly going to Warner Bros. Justice League. Unlike most Marvel movies, this DCEU movie does have some competition in wide release, with the Lionsgate drama Wonder, starring Julia Roberts and Jacob Tremblay, and Sony's animated biblical tale The Star, although none of those movies will come anywhere close to Justice League. We're predicting that Justice League comes in just a bit over its latest box office projections, taking in $126.7 million.

In late October, the latest Justice League box office tracking put the superhero ensemble between $110 million and $120 million, an opening weekend which comes in below both Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice ($166 million) and Suicide Squad ($133.6 million), but above the opening weekend of Wonder Woman ($103.2 million). Ironically, Wonder Woman ($412.5 million) ended up besting both Batman v Superman ($330.3 million) and Suicide Squad ($325.1 million) at the domestic box office, since it suffered minimal drops from weekend to weekend throughout the summer, unlike both Batman v Superman and Suicide Squad.

The Wonder Woman movie was also helped quite a bit by a glowing critical reception, with its 92% Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes far exceeding the 27% of Batman v Superman and the 26% of Suicide Squad. As for the Justice League reviews, they are still under embargo, which is slated to break late tonight. In an unusual move, though, Rotten Tomatoes is delaying the release of the TomatoMeter score for a full day, which will be revealed on their new show on Facebook called See It/Skip It. The move has raised some eyebrows although the first wave of reviews will be available for all to see on various websites tonight at 11:50 PM PT/2:50 AM ET. Still, it remains to be seen how much these reviews will impact the box office, since even the critical flops Batman v Superman and Suicide Squad fared quite well.
 
I see alot of folk saying the Villan is weak in JL....but isn't every Villan we have had been weak in so far across both universes.
With the exception of Loki in the FIRST film and Zod from MOS all the others have been poor. With the highlights of dire being Ultron,Mekelith, Trevor.
 
Ok, so my question to those who have seen it, how does this movie stack up against the rest of the dc films going back to the first batman?

No surprise that a movie where Zack Snyder did the brunt of the work on sucks. Still, I did hope that Whedon would be able to salvage it

One interesting thing about Thor Ragnarok or even thinking back to Batman Forever is just how easy it is for a superhero film to completely change the tone of an entire franchise with seemingly minimal effort.

Batman Returns was too dark and kinky? Okay just release Batman Forever which carries on as if things were *never* dark and non-family oriented. Were it not for the individual failings of the Schumacher films people would have just accepted it. Case in point Thor Ragnarok. He literally went from moping about his mother and brother's death in one film to full stand-up comedian in the next.

Thor 3 even took a moment to laugh with the audience about the failed drama of the previous film with that hilarious little play and then they just carried on as if Thor was always a comedic franchise. And that's all the DCEU has to do.

Open Justice League with some kids in super hero costumes pretending to fight in the street and then one of them says "Martha" which causes the other kid to crack up. Or have Cavill Superman in a bar where there's a TV recapping the destruction of Metropolis and some of the patrons say "why didn't he save more people?" to which Cavill replies "Oh he did..." *looks at audience* "off-screen..." *smiles and turns back to the bar.* You get the idea just own their previous failures instead of acting like it was all part of this supposed master plan of character evolution, have fun with it and move on.
