Continues to "Draw" an audience in

I am not surprised but the market place should be impressed with the Box Office results that WW continues to bring in. Marvel didn't start out with Iron Man as the intended lynch pin to the MCU and now WW might be that for the DCU.
I think DC has no choice but to ride on WW's connection to an audience that is more than receptive.

I'm glad people enjoy it but as a life long DC fan I refuse to watch it.

Caring is sharing. I understand you reason for not watching WW is personal but what is your reason?

Zack Snyder has poisoned DC for me. Any movie associated with him is unacceptable IMHO.

I really don't think God cares why WW is still making money
but audiences (families, summer, period piece, something a bit different and a female lead) have caught onto a momentary trend ? my gut feel is that it might make for a watered down JLA if DC attempts to focus on WW to the detriment of all of the other heroes. I personally felt that Captain Rogers became the comic foil in the Avengers and wasn't' rehabilitated until CA:WS. The person I see getting the short end of the heroic treatment is Supes for JLA. WW will shine of course but Supes didn't a heroes arc in BvS and it won't be any different if WW becomes the apparent focus and savior of JLA.
With Joss Whedon taking charge it might be good for Diana Prince but bad for Clark Kent.
Looking forward to JLA but hope that film can do a reclamation of Kal-El's persona and image without having to take a back-seat to everyone else including WW.

..and WW over this Labor Day weekend was well positioned to be available to a large audience with such relatively weak competition. DC/Warner has done a masterful job and WW's Box Office remains strong.
Impressive. I even expect there to be an Oscar push for this film which is again no doubt a deliberate move from Warner.

Why would that/should that be a problem?
