lol not "disastrous" is an understatement bordering on butt sore. It's a Aquaman movie (!) following up on JusticeLeague (!) in December (!!) yet beating MarryPoppins, Transformers, Spiderman (!!!) in the big key markets by a wide margin and having just opened already crossed 500M with a 160-200 budget (!!!!), which is as "spectacular" as the movie itself!!!!1

Do you hear an octopus playing drums under water? Some just can't.

Or speaking of drums, take it this way, Antman2 of the currently most popular CBM franchise (MCU) and following up on the final-act smash Avengers-InfinityWar made $622,674,139 worldwide in it's entire run.

Or put it that way, dead fish, just like raccoon turds, always float at the shallow end of the sea. Aquaman is neither.

I did nothing more than state the figures available. And from those it doesn't look as if it has exceeded most DCEU movies in the foreign markets, only significantly in China

As for the some of the other movies you mentioned...well Mary Poppins has already beaten Aquaman in the UK, but it has yet to be released in most of the "big key markets". There are only figures for Bumblebee for one of the 10 "key" markets, Russia. But that's neither here nor there. You stated it had surpassed most other DCEU films in foreign markets..I found that an interesting statement, looked it up, and it seemed it hadn't really. That's ALL I was commenting on. Not the quality of the film. Not it's performance in the US. Not it's perfomance compared to other current releases or non DCEU films.

I apologise if the use of the phrase "neither is it a disaster" upset you so much.

aww, don't mention it, I know you just got to try.

Reminds me of the good old day when you campaigned that WW wasn't as successful as thought. And it finally came out WW was the most profitable CBM 2017 with $252.9 million in profit for WB (whereas Homecoming pocketed $200.1 million for Sony, Thor: Fragglerock $174.2 million and Guardians2 $154.7 million for Disney). We had a hoot and a holler! Also remember your passionate mockery of the WW's "I believe in love" mantra while praising the comedic value of turd humor...? Lol, good times, still comforting to know love is still more valued than famously huge turds, you'll probably disagree.

Well, currently MaryPoppinsReturns is at $54,431,600 worldwide with a 130-150 budget, but maybe she pulls a mindblowing WonderWoman in the long run? Maybe Aquaman (now sitting at >500M) will in the end cry like Thor Fragglerock when getting a haircut? Who knows?

I'm Mary Poppins y'all!!!

So long, buster.
