I know they are 1 year apart from each other but which film do you think will make more bank and will be the blockbuster of the summer?

i have a feeling batman vs superman will make more money opening week but wont be as good as a movie as the avengers 2.
While I am inclined to agree with russellmania that just the title is enough to ensure financial success (actual quality being inconsenquentional) Marvel Studios has been making some loads of money by usually distributing their movies world-wide before its officially released in the US, its how they have been doing for quite some time and has being quite successful.
BvS, as it will be a better movie. IF, Avengers 2 is anything like the first.
This.
Batman vs superman. The first one made more than any batman movie ever but it was due to three d prices. We have the two biggest superheroes ever in one movie, it will make the most money if it is in three d
First off DC is not accurate at making films. Second of all, why is this even called Batman vs Superman?? I thought this was a Man Of Steel Sequel?? But whatever. Anyways Age of Ultron takes this one. I already got a bad feeling about BVS!!! I mean if you are bringing WW and Flash and even Aquaman and even rumors of Cyborg coming in in a freaking Batman Vs Superman film, that just pretty much makes the Justice League team and movie right there. Why not just call it Justice League?? Also BVS??? Whats the point going to be?? You got the two best DC characters fighting each other?? As I said, I got a bad feeling about this one. Age of Ultron makes more sense obviously, cause its the group being formed again to take on another Notorious villain as in Ultron. So Age of Ultron takes this one cause they will make bank from day 1 all the way till the Fall gets here again. I wouldn't be surprised if BVS makes just about the same amount of box office as Man Of Steel did. I Love DC, I love Batman and Superman but this project just seems like its going to run itself into the ground and lead to a bad Justice League movie, which im hoping wont happen.
@russellmania77: Then why has the 1st Avengers outsold all Batman films?
AoT.
I agree... Age of Toast outsells all.
@night-wing-zai: Watchmen was pretty damn accurate. And there are only so many ways you can adapt batman to the big screen and same with superman.
@maccyd: hehe makes you think tho... 6 heroes to be in the same league as the greatest hero of all time

You had one job, @wolverine08
@russellmania77: Everyone knows people only went to that to see Alfred, nobody cares about Batman.

@mr_clockwork91: True but I still cant get over the fact that Batman is going to be played out by BEN AFFLECK!! We already seen him ruin one Comic Hero "DareDevil" lets hope he doesn't do the same with the Bat. Also the other Reason Ultron takes this is because the casting for this is terrible! Gal Gadot as WW??? Are you kidding me? Jesse Eisbenber as Luthor??????? -____- I hope Snyder knows what he is doing cause as I said earlier, this can be leading to a bad direction to the Justice League movie
@night-wing-zai: Your predisposition is what is going to make you not like this movie. Ben Affleck did a good job as DD, but the movie as a whole wasn't that great. Ben is actually a huge fan of comics and I find it unfair to say he will do a horrible job when you have never seen him perform as Batman. He is an above average actor otherwise he wouldn't be around doing movies. I remember when there was a big fuss about Daniel Craig about being Bond and turned out to be one of the best.
Gal Gadot just needs to put on a few more pounds, and the roles she has been thrown in are non major.
Jesse Eisenburgh, why not? I have yet to see him in a movie I was disappointed in.

Oh come on it wasnt that bad. He got a bad script.
Marvel. DC will play it safe on this movie. Not to mention "Ultron" is in the title, something fans from all over have been waiting to see for sometime.
BvS.
It capitalizes both fans that want to see finally Supes and Bats in the same movie, and casual viewers that like Batman.

They may not be 'accurate' but they still sure as hell make a crap load of money. It's Batman VS superman why not call it batman VS superman? All of those with the possible exception of Luthor are just having a cameo to introduce them, so they won't need a huge intro in the possible JL movie. Batman and superman have thought countless times in comics, there was nothing wrong with those. Why not do in movies especially sin they're DC's cinematic universe biggest characters. It's clear the movie is going to make money and possibly out sell Man of Steel again DC is using 2 of their biggest characters, if that's not going to make money I don't know what will.

lol what?
No one even knows who Ultron is outside of comics until they announced the title and even among the comic community Ultron's fanbase is tiny.
At best BvS will pass the billion dollar line but Avengers audience has grown since the first one. Maybe JL stands a better chance. And trust me, it hurts me to say this considering I thought Avengers was meh
The idea of Batman vs. Superman challenging Avengers 2 in the box office is a pipe dream right now. Given the way people have been responding to the casting and the box office history of even the positively received movies featuring those characters, I can't see how anyone would think it has a chance of challenging the sequel to the third most successful movie of all time. Plus, Marvel is just better at marketing.
AoT.
Doubtful.
AoT.
Doubtful.
I don't think so. It has the backing of already boasting one successful movie(Avengers) in it's portfolio and the Marvel Studios brand for that extra umph in comparison to Man of Steel which somewhat underwhelmed to its expectations and I think AoT is going to be better critically acclaimed, which will help the box office numbers.
@wolverine08: Batman vs Superman is the first live action meeting between two of the most iconic superheroes of all time, it can get by on name alone. Factor in, that previous Batman films {e.g. TDKR} had no 3D, whereas BvS will.
@frozen: The idea that iconic background Superman had would sell Man of Steel alone was pushed a lot, and it didn't exactly pan out when things were all said and done. I do think name recognition is a pretty sweet edge for BvS, but I also feel that Marvel Studios has done a good enough job building their brand to compete with something like that, and have name recognition of its own that will help sell Avengers 2 to the public.(If the popularity of the first film isn't enough to begin with)
Oh. My. God. If I here one more complaint that it is Batman vs. Superman instead of Superman vs. Batman...
BvS has a better ring than the other way around, and people have been putting Batsy's name first for years. Deal with it.
@wolverine08: Well, it's Batman that sells - putting Batman in the film is what guaranteed the film the $1 billion number, it's just the idea of the two being on screen together. Though, I am speculating at this point, I do believe 3D will help sales.
I have no doubt in my mind it'll outsell Cap 3.
@frozen: Fair enough.

Yeah, Daredevil wasn't Affleck's fault.
Age Of Ultron. Tell em, what made more Avengers or Dark Knight. Or Avengers or Dark Knight Rises. How about Avengers or Man of Steel?

Yae more people know about guardians of the galaxy than they do about ultron outside of comics. ultron will have to be done right In order for the film to be successful. Batman and superman alone are known world wide so logically it should make more money at opening box office.
Age Of Ultron. Tell em, what made more Avengers or Dark Knight. Or Avengers or Dark Knight Rises. How about Avengers or Man of Steel?
Using that type of logic, whats more Avengers or TDK + MoS' box office?
And TDK didn't have 3d.
@those_eyes I'm not saying BvS will make more, people can argue with it either way. I don't really care either and time will tell. I just thought the reasoning was silly because no one knows or cares about Ultron.
Marvel has a great track record and a built in fan base not just for the characters but for the actors, studio and universe. Batman V Superman is a huge risk for several reasons. The heroes might be bigger, but the cast is debatable and the direction has mediocre support. Avengers made way more money than Man of Steel. To put it briefly, avengers has momentum. I'd be greatly surprised if avengers didn't do better.
@cdiddyman911: TDK/TDKR had no 3D.

Yae I'm mainly just mentioning the marketing aspect of it. Can't wait to see the trailers for both though.

Okay, that's acceptable I suppose. But I only still firmly believe that Avengers 2 will make more especially since many people didnt like MOS anyways.
i have a feeling batman vs superman will make more money opening week but wont be as good as a movie as the avengers 2.
This.
@those_eyes: the marketing will be fine. They'll throw RDJ's face over everything and everyone will want to see Ultron then.
