Yeah, it's all a bit silly.
I truly believe - due to about 3-4 reasons (timing, tone, The World™ in general, etc. - this movie (
The Batman) is going to underwhelm/underperform in a way WB/DC aren't prepared for or expecting. It might open strong, but I think it'll be one of those things that makes most of its haul in those first 3-4 days (including those advance Thursday night screenings).
