As others have pointed out, what happened to BB at the box office is nothing like what happened to MoS. The "Bad Previous Movie" stigma primarily affects opening weekends. BB had a crap opening thanks to Batman's tarnished reputation, but ultimately ended up doing quite well because it had great legs from all the positive word of mouth. MoS had the opposite experience: Great opening weekend, crap legs.
MoS had drops of 65% and 50% in its second and third weekends, better than Days of Future Past for example, or Godzilla.
MoS also faced Monsters University and World War Z in its second week, tremendous competition really. They combined for 471 million domestic.
