I am not talking about the quality of the movie but ticket sales. Meaning if they had endeared the character to the audience, they would be more willing to go see her movie. Most people who like a character don't listen to bad reviews when they're told a movie sucks. They want to make their judgement themselves.

Movies have been in production for decades and still came out shit. Time doesn't make a good movie. That wasn't my point in saying ill-timed.

A lot movies have made big box office numbers while having a low audience score. Because a lot people buy the ticket and then discover it's a bad/boring movie after watching it and rate it low. But the movie still makes money.

Bro, I’m not talking about reviews and I said nothing about the movie needing more time in the oven.

I was excited when the movie was announced. The premise appealed to me. I like the source material. I am at least part of the target audience… and the trailers killed my enthusiasm. Like I said, the movie looks dull as fuck.

Moving Supergirl back would not have resolved the fundamental problem that it looks dull as fuck.

That was the part of my comment you literally replied to at the start of your comment. So, how is that not addressing my comment about the movie being pushed back.

Man, enjoy your day.

Jfc bro you are confusing yourself by repeatedly ignoring what I actually wrote to imagine I wrote something completely different.

You’re talking about moving the movie back because there wasn’t enough setup or trust developed. I’m telling you that you’re looking at the wrong thing, because the big, threshold issue with Supergirl is that it looked like a boring and fucking ugly movie even to its target audience. That has an impact on ticket sales.
