That’s why they’re called sources. And not identified


Aka grifters on Twitter. I've seen tons of random accounts stating the test screenings were good. But i don't pay it any attention because most are just doing it for engagement.

Yea the rollout hasn’t helped for sure. Very odd choices
Need Superman, then Batman, then maybe a Green Lantern, then a Wonder Woman, THEN a Supergirl

You have to set the stage and get people invested with the major characters

Would have liked to see a Mr. Terrific movie, he was easily the best character in the Superman film

+1 and Clayface going 3rd. I'm actually excited for that one, but it's still an odd choice to put as the 3rd film of your cinematic universe.

Look at the MCU

You had Iron Man, then Thor, then Hulk. then Cap. . .start introducing characters inside them (Nick Fury, Loki, Black Widow, Falcon, War Machine, Winter Soldier, Black Panther, Spider Man, etc.)

Establish interest in those characters and capitalize on it later with IP.

It was bound to fault any momentum from Superman because you tell ppl they need to see it, Superman was family friendly then you open with a full on nudity filled orgy. I remember ppl coming out of the woodwork online mad about that first episode and it killed S2.

Right and I know Gunn likes to do the peacemaker type stuff more but if you want the franchise to hit you have to get the big 3 correct and lead with them. Batman I can understand because there’s another Batman happening at the same time that’s actually made money. He wanted to kill it but it was successful so he couldn’t. Still could’ve done Wonder Woman and Green lantern while teasing his Batman but his choices seemed more about what he likes than what would sell.

There are actual people in the industry who share info. Over time they get reps of being accurate on such things. They’re not ‘grifters’ as they don’t publicize it.

Of course there are, but I'm asking for proof on this film. Nothing else. Show me the "legit" ones that are saying test screenings have been bad

I told people she looked like a dude back during HotD, but was chided on here and told she was super hot.

Again, she was very popular among fans based on HotD. That's why she got this part. This was all just a huge PR misfire.

I'm telling you there are people on Twitter saying it's good and it's bad, and they should all be ignored

I get it . We don’t know. But I’ve heard anywhere from 3-8 screenings & alternate endings…

It seems to have mounting negatives. But it’ll be fine.

Has Chris Pratt — who likewise seems to lean vaguely conservative — ever received the level of nuclear blowback Sweeney did? Not at all.


There was an active campaign to replace Pratt in the Guardians franchise by females and gays when it came out that Pratt was an unapologetic Christian, and thus, probably Republican. He'd never even said anything political. It was after he said “Jesus Christ is my savior “ that they went into a froth.

There’s only been 2 screenings but there’s been 5 different composers and 8 different endings so far

Is it possible her last name is an in-you-face spoof?

They still hate him, and call him homophobic

Gunn had to address it once and basically said they could all EAD, paraphrasing

Dude has never said an offensive thing in his life

He is like a talented version of the 2012 Mitt Romney candidacy (completely inoffensive in every way). . .that swears

I'm not understanding this push to say she is ugly. She is very pretty.

She could never be hot, for the same reason Jenna Ortega could never be hot. They have this thing to them that makes them, that makes them look like children to me.

They could both play a believable 14 year old, and that can never be hot

I used to say that grown men who lust after those 2 should be on a list
