The DC Studios co-chief admits that the executive role wasn’t quite right for him and looks forward to returning to filmmaking full time.

    What’s your point? Like I said, it was profitable, but for a studio to see it as worth the effort and for them to make money off of it, $618m is not enough. $393m in profits is not great, especially when you consider how poorly all the other DC movies have been doing. I don’t think it’s even enough to pay off the expenses from Supergirl.

    Spiderman has made over $2 billion on the same production budget. Venom from 2018 has made more money than the entire Gunn DCEU… Venom. Gunn is a failure for DC and a waste of money.

      Venom from 2018

      Venom was Sony and before Gunn was working for DC. Gunn’s Guardians of the Galaxy from the previous year made $869 to Venom’s $856.

        The point was that a move of a lesser character has made more money than Gunn’s entire DCEU… three movies… I don’t understand how you don’t see that as being problematic? You can’t keep giving money to someone who doesn’t bring in revenue. Why do you think they sold themselves to Skydance? To try and get someone else to deal with the debt.
