Its video game franchise.

it's not like that franchise is in a place to be hurt

they haven't exactly been making much all that great in years now

last sonic game I played had broken physics and glitched out real easy

but that might be anything they make for PS or XBox cause they don't put effort into those formats

They made Sonic Mania, which had a positive reception. I'm not sure if there were any other games afterwards that were just as successful. So, I have a feeling that the movie might not make an impact on the games since most of the movie-goers probably haven't played the games in the first place.

I was wondering that if the new Sonic the Hedgehog movie bombs (and I really hope it doesn't), will that have a negative impact on the franchise or will it have no impact whatsoever?

$1 billion dollar movie says they have hit it with whatever fanbase they were looking for

I agree that if one of the DCEU movies can at least break a $1 billion dollars, it might become even more successful in the future.

@Penguin-Dust: it’s expected to drop 4% internationally

Hope it doesn't drop too far down.

Week #2 had it drop 53% domestically taking in just over $25 million more for an approximate total of $95 million domestic. Internationally, Deadline is reporting it picked up an additional $35 million for an international total of $164 million. I don't think all of the numbers are in, but Variety adds a some specific country box office returns. In its second week of release, Shazam! sits at $266 million globally. Forbes said its rate of return is in line with Spider-Man Into the Spiderverse which is "fine". These days, I think fans of CBM's and movies in general get wrapped up in the big numbers of the billion-dollar club which is a fairly recent phenomenon. Most films don't need to make an insane amount of money to be successful.

It actually did better in its second weekend opening than Ant Man did, which is pretty impressive. In any case, I think Shazam would still make back its budget (actually, it probably already did).

Nah. Just because it was first doesn’t automatically mean it would have been as good as it is. There was/is a lot of people that’ve worked hard to get the MCU to be the brand that it is today, with crossover appeal to both the casuals and legit readers.

The WB/DC can’t replicate the magic of the MCU because they simply don’t have the same people working behind the curtains to make it happen. That said, Warners has found something with focusing on solo/singular stories and it’s working pretty good for them at the moment.

This.

What tethadam said and also hire Christopher Nolan for a batman movie

I agree that Christopher Nolan should had been a consultant for a Batman movie at least since his "Dark Knight Trilogy" is one of the most successful superhero franchises made.

Either way, the MCU would have been more successful due to the way that they planned out their universe and stories. Since they actually took the care to develop their characters from the very beginning, the audience would have been more inclined to see their movies instead of the DCEU's movies.

Even if the DCEU movies had came out before the MCU movies, if they had started out their universe with movies like "Batman vs Superman" and "Justice League" without developing the characters properly, then their movies still would have failed regardless of whether or not they started first since the audience wouldn't be that invested in the characters.
