Not bad for a film series that was pretty much DOA after Superman Returns.
The best comparison I could find to MoS's box office was At World's End. Very similar openings and weekend 2 drops. MoS has better daily holds through 12 days vs At World's End, which made $309 mil US. If MoS can hold less than 50% this weekend, that'll give it around $248 mil. A steady drop in the 40s over the next few weeks could help it reach $300 mil.

I think it's slowing down already. When I saw it last night there were a total of four people in the theater. Waiting for the previous showing to finish, only two people came out.

Anecdotal, for sure, but it's all I know for certain. The other theater in town has already dropped it down to one screen, too.

Re: Man of Steel - The Reviews Thread

I always did love that cover with the little boy crying as if he's about to be raped by Superman.

Then of course there is also the infamous Bryne issue where Superman and Big Barda made a porno:



I also really love these covers:





Raping little kids, porno with Big Barda, torturing Jimmy Olsen and Aquaman. Yes, Superman has a very strong moral compass indeed.

^ Oddly enough there isn't many "I'm so emo it hurts" Superman besides Earth One.


Like I said, it seems that Zack Snyder was a real big fan of Superman is a Dick meme.

That and he suffers from some form of ADHD
