Superman’s $217M “Hit”? - The DCU is Already in Trouble

The media spin machine is in overdrive, calling James Gunn's
Superman a "solid hit". But are they telling the whole story? We're diving deep into the numbers that Hollywood doesn't want you to see.

In this video, we break down:
* The "impressive" $123M domestic opening that's actually weaker than
* Man of Steel's when you adjust for inflation.
* The catastrophic $95M international performance, which is lower than
Ant-Man: Quantumania.
* The complete box office bomb in China, where the film earned a pathetic $6.6 million after James Gunn's personal visit.
*The budget math from hell: Why a rumored $425M+ total cost means the movie needs over $700M just to break even.

The so-called "Gods and Monsters" era of the DCU was supposed to start with a grand slam, but the numbers show it barely hit a single. Is this the end before it even began?
