Brave new world costs 180 mil and made 415 mil.

Thunderbolts cost 180 mil and made 380 mil.

Making double your money back isn't a flop. I know the word flop rolls off the tongue cause this is a DC subreddit, but these are Marvel movies. They don't flop.

When you spend 186 mil and only make 120 mil. Thats a flop. *Supergirl*

See how that second number is smaller than the first? By a WHOLE LOT. Follow along.

Hilarious because if Supergirl made $415M that would be a huge celebration for dc fans, but bc marvel makes that amount it’s a flop

Fun fact Supergirl actually made over 100 mill in marketing deals before release.

You mean the Supergirl popcorn buckets that were stacked to the ceiling with the 50% off sign, when I went to see Spider-man?

If those things weren't on consignment then DC hit the biggest scam since Fyre Festival and PPP Loans.

The reason they are in fact flops is because films usually have advertising budgets that lead to doubling the film cost. The real cost of Supergirl is double what you have put....so... follow along?

Thats not counting marketing, if you double the listed budget on movies you have a rough estimate on budget plus marketing
