It looks like 2013 is the year of the true return of Superman. After over a year of hype and a marketing blitz seldom seen, Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel opened to the tune of $113 million making it the larget June opening ever. When you add in the Thursday night 7PM screenings the tally sits at $125 million. That is way ahead of Warner’s safe estimate of $85 million and shows that there is another viable DC movie franchise out there besides Batman.
