The DC cinematic universe, which brings together the beloved heroes of DC Comics, has been largely underwhelming so far.

The Movie grossed an impressive $821.9 million worldwide, proving that Movies centered around a female hero can also be commercially successful.

One of the most beloved science fiction Movies of all time, Blade Runner, made its return to the big screen after 35 years with Blade Runner 2049. Unlike many sequels produced after long gaps, Blade Runner 2049 succeeded in capturing much of the acclaim of the original Movie.
While Blade Runner 2049 was highly praised by both critics and moviegoers for its stunning visuals and compelling story, it did not quite meet box office expectations, similar to the original Movie’s experience.
