Poll: Batman v. Superman, or Captain America 3?

[SeeDarkly_Xero]

I doubt we have to worry about GL levels of shit, worse case scenario we get an extremely mediocre movie. Yes they are worried about making money first but think if they can show that "DC beats Marvel" headline to their shareholders, that they knocked the king off the mountain, and how much hype will that generate for the Justice League movie. People will be talking about it for a while, questioning if they can do it again.

Yes.. it will be "news." And they have shown that they can get in the news.
But I still believe they won't want to lose the bottom line.
Think about production and actor cost alone. If they take that risk and split their potential audience for the sake of "ego" or "bragging rights" they will still not earn in one weekend nearly what they could without the competition THEY chose to engage in.
Again... it's the failure inherent in the PR game they are playing.
If they go through with it, they will get news, but lose money. That's just math.

Absolutely no interest in anything that has superman in it. Pretty stoked for CA3 though, Winter Soldier was a blast!

cap 2 was probably my favourite of the marvel series so far, they're put together pretty well and they're pretty well acted.

i really enjoyed nolan's batman trilogy, and don't really want more of batman at all, let alone being introduced alongside superman. it just doesn't appeal to me at all.

cap 3 hands down, i MIGHT see BvS when its released on dvd, but only out of curiosity.

 

[Ursus Buckler]

Captain America, definitely. Loyalty before laughs.

Winter Soldier was probably my favorite Marvel movie to date, so I'm definitely going to see Cap 3 when it's in theaters. Depending on the set-up of the theater I see it in, I might just try to get away with walking out of Cap 3 and into another theater about to show BvS, since I'll already be there and won't have to shell out additional money for it (the last bit is why I assume there's some sort of safeguard in theaters to prevent this, but I've never seen them). As someone with a limited income (college student, woo), I doubt I'll be willing to pay to see a movie I don't already trust to be pretty good. (The only movies I've seen in theaters over the last few years are Marvel films and the last two animated Disney films. Disney's getting my money because Disney makes good movies.)

 

[Childe]

I will see neither of them in theaters most likely. Prices to high. I have no idea when i will see them out of theaters since i still need to see Captain America 2 and Thor 2

 

[Something Amyss]

I don't have any faith in DC and their movies. I will probably see both in time, but I'm in no rush to see BVS.

Captain America 3. I get enough darkness and grit from the Horus Heresy series already.

 

[Johnny Novgorod]

Whatever movie screens for the press first. For what it's worth though I'm more intrigued by the Superman/Batman movie than Cap 3.

 

[CommanderL]

I love superman and I love batman and I am a major dc guy that being said I will be seeing captain america first as mos sucked and b/sdofj seems to be a mess

and captian america 2 was an amazingly good movie easily one of marvels best

 

[Sniper Team 4]

Captain America. No contest. It is so refreshing to see a super hero who is a hero and good guy at heart. No brooding, no troubled past, no struggles with drugs or drinking, no pushing people away out of fear of them getting hurt.

 

[Papadam]

Im not from the US so to me Captain America is just a really stupid hero.

And I actually enjoyed Man of steel more than any Marvel movie Ive seen.
I don't see whats so great about the Avengers and whats so bad about MoS.

 

[Super Cyborg]

Captain America 3 as well. Main reason is I just don't care for the big named DC heroes. Batman, Superman, and even Wonder Woman don't do much for me. This comes from watching the JLA series, as well as other movies and Young Justice. I prefer the lesser known heroes, Flash, Green Arrow, Huntress etc. or the young heroes that live in the shadows of their mentors. Non of the live action DC movies have done anything for me. The Dark Knight Trilogy was ok at best, but they weren't anything great, and after watching the first movie, Batman does a big out of character act at the end.

Marvel has built a reputation, and I feel that they never fail to deliver. I've liked all their movies, even the ones that people don't care about, or even hate.

Captain America 3. I get enough darkness and grit from the Horus Heresy series already.

Pretty much this, if I want grim darkness, I'll read about how Horus messes up the galaxy.

OT: I'm going for Captain America 3, "Dawn of Justice" sounds like a mess of a movie at the rate we're hearing news about it.

 

[FPLOON]

Both...

I'll make it a back-to-back double feature with whichever one having the earliest showing at the theater nearest me getting first viewing... Although, that would not mean the one I see first would end up being the one I choose to be the better movie that particular day...

Yep... My optimism is all at a neutral stance right now... and I haven't even seen The Winter Soldier yet, mind you...

I'm not from the UK so to me Doctor Who is just some stupid Limey TV-show.
I'm not from Russia so to me War and Peace is just some dumb old book.
I'm not from Belgium so to me Belgian beer absolutely sucks.

Now, you see why that way of thinking is absolutely stupid?

OT, I didn't really have a problem with MoS, even though it was a bit too dark and gritty in my opinion. The thing that's so (subjectively) great about the Avengers is that it managed to combine different heroes with their own movies into one movie and make it work.

You actually don't see why anyone not from America would think a hero called Captain America is silly?
Your comparisons has no relevance to what I was talking about.

But on the other hand, Im from Sweden and think Thor is equally stupid as a super hero.

 

[Trek1701a]

Superman is my favorite superhero, however, I'm still waiting for DC to make a Superman movie, since MoS wasn't one, and I doubt I'll be seeing SvB in the theaters. So in this case, I would be seeing Capt. America 3.

 

[Verlander]

All of the BvS promo material has been grey and rainy. I live in Britain, ain't nobody got time for that.

Cap 3 for me.

But that's kinda the point of Cap - that he encompasses all of the virtues that the USA believes it has, and yet he clashes so hard with the reality of the USA. Given how deep the influence of the USA is in all of Western/Northern Europe, I'd be surprised if you couldn't appreciate the theme at least on some level.
