Wide Box Office Release.
They said the buzz is trending tremendously, and they feel confident in a wide theatrical release with Zack Snyder’s film.
Why can’t WB swallow their pride and keep Snyder? They are ridiculous.
Side Note: Dave Bautista turned down “The Suicide Squad” with James Gunn to be in “Army of the Dead” quoted saying “I really wanted to work with Zack Snyder”
Could you imagine the egg on WB face... haha

The trailer looks good. I'm glad to hear it's getting a wide release. This is exactly the kind of movie that could be a surprise box office smash.

The obsession with zombie movies is weird especially when you've got the walking dead every single week night on TV.

Zack Snyder’s movies don’t have the best track record at the box office. As boneheaded as a lot of WB’s decisions are, keeping him around for the DC franchise would be too much of a risky endeavor.

He's the Kubrick of our age. Kubrick movies didn't do well and yet he was always sure of money.
The obsession with zombies, sharks, superheroes---it is because the minds behind Hollywood have such limited thinking capacity.
They will claim this is what audiences want yet I don't see the enthusiasm for this--where are the kids with zombie or shark t-shirts?
They aren't getting merchandising value out of this stuff--they cant even keep the story straight-one day they say merchandising is what movies are about--I think that's a lie. They can't be making much money off these movies in merchandising. Next say they say western box office is poor, so they need China as a new audience (a lie). The next day they say piracy is the reason movies aren't doing well (another lie--since we know people were going to theatrical re-runs of old movies until Disney stopped allowing old FOX movies to be shown last year).
Hollywood is governed by politics and nepotism.
Why aren't they going into Columbus Ohio or Memphis or somewhere to recruit new American filmmakers?
Why not? Because they don't want a new generation of American filmmakers.

Um and what if the ideas of these so called new Spielbergs are shit? You think it would be worse than Zack Snyder and co? If you allow competition, then production companies will weed through the content options, and from the public response, those with merit will rise up. Spielberg is a bad example because when he came along-everything became about blockbusters and visuals over story content. His Amazing Stories was a complete failure so we need less of the technology-focused filmmaker. I dont see how that can happen though--the internet should have created that--a new generation--but the studio owners also have influence in controlling the monetizing of internet platforms so there is no way professional artists to get a fair boost. They rather direct it to Communist agents like that Ryan kid on youtube who peddles toys made in China.
