Why did Wonder Woman make so little money compared to Captain Marvel? Is it because of star power? Meaning people didn't know who Gal was but have know Brie for a while. Same could be said for Shazam with people not knowing who Levy is outside of America.
I refuse to believe that the character of Captain Marvel is bigger worldwide that Wonder Woman. What surprised me the most was the fact that Captain Marvel did more domestically (in USA & Canada) than Wonder Woman. Honestly I can't explain that one. I really don't know how that happened. It can't be bad word of mouth since Aquaman made a billion, but truth be told it didn't do that well domestically. So maybe that's why WW didn't outgross CM? Still why didn't WW make more worldwide then? Maybe zoomers just prefer these flicks to the other flicks. IDK. Thanks for reading this blog post
Captain marvel was more or less positioned as both a prequel and sort of appetizer to the last avengers movie. I think that gave it something like a 50% bump.

because its riding the marvel hype train and people thought they might miss something in Endgame if they didnt watch captain marvel.

Outrage advertising works really well with men.
If you call men incel shitballs instead of be nice to them they will share your movie all over the world and keep doing so for months.

WB didn't buy out their own sits. They aren't on Disney's level when it comes to marketing.

It's this: Not this: Most people watching are literally only watching it because her logo was the end credit scene of Infinity Wat. Myself and most of the people in the theater didn't even know what we had just seen when the logo appeared. Only one guy in the theater knew and was confident enough to say "oh that? That's Captain Marvel" whenthe rest of us were scratching our heads. Normal people don't give a shit about how batshit Brie may or may not be.
If you do end up watching Captain Marvel, watch it for Sam Jackson. The movie is as much Fury's origin story as it is hers and he knocks the roll out of the park.

No, it's this:
This is a fact that is well known in the advertising industry, just that they don't want people to know how profitable it is to be shit to your customers because once they know they might stop reacting the same way.

WB dont have the money to buy their own seats.

But even if Disney "bought the seats" that doesn't or shouldn't mean that CM would make so much more money than WW. I was under impression that WW was a character known all over the world like Batman and Superman. It seems like people don't really care if the character is known rather that is a part of some universe. Even so CM is a literally who to normies and people like myself who don't read comics. At most the movie should have had Shazam numbers, but because it's from Marvel/Disney and is a part of MCU it made/ is making more than movies about characters that are popular all over the world. Then again I bet 1k that Birds of Prey featuring Harley Quinn will not make more than 500 million worldwide.
