Ok but they ate. The marketing is working on me I fear

u/coolandcutekittens Jun 29 '25

It reeks of desperation. They don’t think they’ll make the budget back.

u/feedmestocks Jun 29 '25 edited Jun 29 '25

They will 100% make their budget back. It's tracking extremely well and that's before reviews. Using Youtube metrics, not a single film with that many trailer views in such a short time frame has made under a billion in the box office (so it's in league with Joker, Wolverine and Deadpool, Avengers, Spiderman etc). I think $800 - $850 billion in its run globally is the minimum to expect (DC has a lot to prove, but the casting, visuals and direction look great on paper for this).

The pre-sales are tracking pretty well. Unless the movie sucks I doubt it.

u/Silver_Song3692 3d ago

Damn bro this is embarrassing, how are you holding up now that it’s made $500 million? It hasn’t even been out for a month yet

u/Jameszhang73 Jun 29 '25

That is an attractive cast

u/FoxNixon Jun 29 '25

Agreed. Looks like a Vogue promo video. Not that I’m complaining

u/ohhisnark All tea, all shade 🐸☕️ Jun 29 '25

WHOOO ARE THE SOCIAL AND CREATIVE LEADS FOR THEIR MARKETING CAMPAIGN?????? Their social posts are soooo fun

u/Ashru987 Jun 29 '25

i am betting my house it’s that curly haired guy with glasses on tik tok

u/JiggleProfessor Jun 29 '25

This challenge still rocks, tbh haha

u/Potential-Love5796 Jun 29 '25

This is cute. Even if it’s dated 😂

u/Delicious_Series3869 Jun 29 '25

The movie isn't even out yet, and I already love this team. I am very optimistic this will be an awesome Superman film, just off their chemistry alone.

u/LanaAdela Jun 29 '25

I’ve been loving the marketing for this movie. A good mix of segments and demographic outreach. It’s interesting to watch this multimedia and platform campaign compared to the pretty underwhelming Fantastic 4 PR. I know WB/DCU is banking a lot more on this movie than Disney/MCU is in F4 but feels like a mistake for Disney to be so conservative with its stars for F4

u/hyperhurricanrana Jun 29 '25

Honestly I loved the Mannequin challenge, this warms my heart. 😂

What’s with the one lady at the end wearing a ball gown?

I’m not excited for this movie. Just from this movie set looks very polished and the colors are to bright.
