15 Predictions For Next Summer's Biggest Movies

15. Wonder Woman Is The DCEU's First Critically Fresh Film

The Prediction: After getting off to a rickety start with Man of Steel and following up with two critical duds in Batman v Superman and Suicide Squad, the DC Extended Universe discovers that the fourth time's the charm, as Wonder Woman becomes the first movie in the series to scoop more than 60% critical approval. It probably won't creep much higher than that threshold, but it'll certainly do.

Why It Might Not Happen: Considering that three movies in they haven't hit their stride yet, the odds aren't in Wonder Woman's favour, especially as the movie was finished shooting before BvS and Suicide Squad even hit cinemas and the major editorial issues at Warner Bros. became known.

Though Warner's execs could cool off on the executive meddling as the movie still has 9 months until release, it's possible the damage has already been done.
