sigpic Oh then, what's this? Big flashy lighty thing, that's what brought me here! Big flashy lighty things have got me written all over them. Not actually. But give me time. And a crayon. -
Great news. It deserves to beat Iron Man 3. I didn't hate it, but as time wears on I realize how flawed it was. I enjoyed MOS and Trek: Into Darkness MUCH more than IM3.
I know this will start the "why do you care how much it makes" debate. Here's why I care. If it makes a bunch of money, they'll make more. And I want more. I liked it...a LOT!

Man, I suppose it was wishful thinking, but I would've LOVED to have seen MOS top the IM3 opening weekend total, but I suppose with IM3 coming off THE AVENGERS high, that was impossible. Perhaps for the MAN OF STEEL sequel in 2016...sigpic Oh then, what's this? Big flashy lighty thing, that's what brought me here! Big flashy lighty things have got me written all over them.

This article says it all:
For all the critics complaining over the fact the film is dark (it's really not much of a gloom and doom fest), that appears to be one of the main draws sending people to see the reboot.
According to a Fandango survey of 1,000 people who purchased tickets to see the film, the following factors are playing a role in people's decision to see "Man of Steel":
* 88% are fans of Christopher Nolan’s “The Dark Knight” franchise;
* 81% are looking forward to seeing a darker interpretation of Superman;
* 61% plan to see it on the big screen more than once, indicating heavy repeat viewing in weeks to come.
The most impressive stat is that a lot of people may want to see this movie more than once — something that was common with Christopher Nolan's "Dark Knight" trilogy...
We have a blockbuster, folks!

Awesome. This movie needs to do well so we can get more DC films and of course, JLA!
Some assorted quotes from David Goyer:
Warner Bros has hopes that there will be more Man Of Steel films, and that this will be the beginning of a shared universe. We could meet Batman, or Wonder Woman, or the Justice League in these movies. But they all hinge on box office reception.Zack [Snyder] has said that Bruce Wayne exists in this universe. It would be a different Bruce Wayne from Chris’ [Nolan] Dark Knight trilogy, and it would be disingenuous to say that Zack and I haven’t had various conversations on set, around ‘what if’ and ‘moving forward’.Previous depictions of Lex Luthor on film depict him as a bit bumbling. Even though Gene Hackman's depiction was fun, we've indicated with Lexcorps that you can infer that Lex in this world is more a Bill Gates or Rupert Murdoch like character. He's probably a multi, multi billionaire. He's not a crook.PUNY HUMANS!Comment

I'm with you, this is not the time to hate on fellow DC superheroes, this is when they all unite, we must finally bring the Marvel Universe to its knees, lol.
You keep on soaring, Supes, the entire world loves ya...
The decision to cast British actor Henry Cavill as Superman is paying off in his home country, where the tentpole scores the best opening-day gross of 2013 so far.
