I think too much emphasis is being put on how much damage BvS movie did to JL's box office performance, sure it made a dent but, hypothetically speaking, for arguments sake, had the JL managed to win over Critics and general audiences (which it didn't, due to several reasons, but let's ignore it for a moment ) it would have got a good RT rating and good word of mouth, which could have resulted in a decent Box Office.
So, the damage done by BvS is not the Only factor here, the quality (or lack thereof) of the movie itself is one of the important factors.
This can be seen in the earlier tracking estimates of the JL movie that were predicting an opening of $105 mil. but once the rotten reviews started trickling in (which could be seen on flixster app as the movie site was not showing anything for first day) people started to lose hype.
