If someone posted these facts in 2013 and 2014, and said I'm from the future, and this is in fact how things are going to turn out in 2016would you have believed it
Civil War-
RT Score 90%
IMDB Score-8.0
Metascore-75/100
Side Note's * - Ranked #1 on the majority of "Best CBM's of 2016" lists, Perfectly set up and Introduced 2 new characters in Black Panther and Spider-Man that will result in Their upcoming movies being massive hits, The Majority of reviews Specifically Highlight The "Airport action sequence" as The Best Superhero action sequence ever put on film in the Genre and the majority of reviews Specifically Highlight and Detail why Civil War Is SO MUCH BETTER than BvS
Doctor Strange-
RT Score 90%
IMDB Score-8.0
Metascore-74/100
Side Note's * - Being Praised as having The best Visual effect's and the most mind-bending action sequences in any MOVIE ever(reviews specifically saying its a lock to win an OSCAR for best Visual Effects) Marvel Studios Once again takes A "C list character" and turns him and his movie into A Massive Hit both critically and at the box office..
Batman V Superman-
RT Score -27%(LOL)
IMDB Score- 6.8
Metascore- 44/100
Side Note's * - A movie so bad and so embarrassing that WB/DC Literally had to release a completely different Cut of the movie on Blu Ray to try and save face and to try and apologize to FansA movie So Awful that WB/DC immediately DEMOTED Zack Snyder and Hired 2 new people to ran the DCEU branch..A Movie so Disastrous that WB/DC Immediately announced A complete Change in "Tone" for all future DCEU films after The horrific reception and backlash to BvS's ToneA Movie so awful, that it had Historic, Never Before seen Box office drops due to Poisonous Word of Mouth.
Of Ya ranked near the bottom on the majority of "Best CBM's of 2016 list's"Also widely considered the most disappointing CBM of all time
Suicide Squad-
RT Score 26%
IMDB score-6.6
Metascore-40/100
LOL Its stunning that somehow DC actually topped itself and made A worst reviewed movie than BvS, I mean seriously, DC fans had to have been thinking, "well BvS was as bad as it could get"lol Wrong, Leave it to WB/DC to somehow, impossibly make things worse
Side Note's * -ONLY WB/DC could SABOTAGE their OWN Movie, immediately after The reviews came out, Dozens of sites reported what went wrong with Suicide Squad and those reports were nothing short of FRIGHTENING, WB/DC literally Sabotaged their own movie, the reported confirmed, WB/DC wildly panicked after BvS failed at the box office and Bombed Critically, WB/DC started badly interfering in Post production on Suicide Squad and were desperately trying to change the tone of the movie after BvS's Tone was Universally hated, WB/DC shockingly brought in a completely new editing company to make A completely different cut of the movie(with a lighter, more Fun Tone)..It resulted in disaster, The movie was universally panned for being Poorly edited and The Tone being completely wrong, and to put the cherry on Top, somehow it resulted in Jared Leto's Joker having most of his scenes cut from the movie, leave it to WB/DC to cut out The single biggest selling point of the entire movie and then P!ss off The Star going forward for future movies.
Oh ya, Widely considered the Worst CBM of The year by The Majority
Conclusion: WB/DC Literally made 2 of the worst CBM's of all time in 2016, While at the same Time Marvel Studios Literally made 2 of the best CBM's of all time
to make things worse 2 of the movies were based on the exact same concept, BvS and Civil War were both based on The Hero Vs Hero Concept, Both released at almost the same time, and the results truly could have not been more differentIt can't get worse than thatyou have 2 studios making the exact same type of movie, with the same concept being released at the same time.and one(Civil War) turns out to be "One of the best CBM's of all time" and the other(BvS) turns out to be "one of the worst CBM's of all time" and that is in no way an exaggeration, just take a look at the reviews, I'm not kidding here, at least 75% of the reviews, Specifically go into detail "why Civil War is better than BvS" and why "DC failed and Marvel Succeeded"
would you have believed this ^ if someone sent it to you in 2014? Could you ever have imagined things going so disastrously wrong for DC in 2016 and Things going so Incredibly right Marvel Studios in 2016?
either as a Marvel fan or a DC fan, could you ever have imagined it would turn out like this
lol I've got to believe, in either case, hardly anyone could have honestly imagined how this situation would have turned out
lets take The most extreme cases, Lets take the most hardcore DC fans against the most hardcore Marvel fans
in both Case, Both Fans were really hoping that "Their Films" would win 2016..
In in Both cases, I dont think either could have imagined just how badly they would LOSE or WIN
In the most hardcore Marvel fans case, I just dont think they could have imagined just how -

You really need to edit your posts. It's a wall of text and more often than not, you repeat yourself several times over. Seriously.
As for your question, no, I would not have predicted it. However, you're making it out to be worse than it actually is just to get a rise out of DC fans. Give it a rest.
How does it feel to be deconstructed? -

yeah agreed, I usually start them then when I have to scroll or start reading the same thing reworded I skip the rest.
Short, sweet, to the point. That's how to make a post.Thanks to Batmeh v Supermeh Yawn of Justice, the "S" now stands for Sidekick -

No I couldn't have imagined it and wouldn't have believed it.
In fact I would have thought that X-Men would have stood a better chance. They have more beloved characters and they all have powers.
No way would I have thought watching a powerless Black Widow would be more entertaining than watching Superman AND Apocalypse, in the same year. -

SS I could not have given a damn about in 2014 I only had a vague knowledge of the characters and having seen them in the film I find them most disappointing, I have no idea what the obsession is with a blond crazy whore with a baseball bat.
BvS though I though the concept was really stupid to be honest, it is just such a miss match and I knew it would have to be heavily contrived for Batman to even stand a chance. However I would not have though that they would have made such a mess of the movie and I am pretty sad about that.
Marvel on the other hand has a rock solid track record and are not 14 fresh out of 14 movies that's impressive. I did not expect DC to just hand the total domination of the year to Marvel without putting up some sort of fight though.
To make a great film you need three things - the script, the script and the script -Alfred Hitchcock -

I figured Suicide Squad would be that in name but the film would focus on Batman with Joker as the main villain.
Harley is the most successful female comic book character, so I figured her debut would also be huge. Especially when the trailer hit.
But I didn't think that a focus on the squad itself was a good idea.
The thing is, SS was never a good concept and the books aren't very good.
I agree about BvS. It was backwards to do Frank Miller's story arc in the first team film. Do that later. And then to smash Death of Superman in was even worse.
Have them fight but do it as a discovery of kryptonite and more like Worlds Finest. A misunderstanding, not "I'm gonna kill you sucka." -

You need to learn how to focus in on the important aspects of what you want to say.

More isn't always better, and I say this as someone who is actually guilty of being excessively wordy pretty often. -

WellI never liked the idea of a Nolan-style "dark and serious" comic book movie. I also don't like Zack Snyder because he was responsible for that CGI turd-fest "300." I skipped Man of Steel and Suicide Squad but I couldn't weasel my way out of skipping Batman v Superman. BvS was even stupider than I expected and confirmed that I was right skipping Man of Steel. Skipping Suicide Squad was an easy decision after seeing BvSand I honestly have no idea why they thought Will Smith would be a good hire.
Get busy livin' or get busy dyin'
That's god damn right.
