Metalhead Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 From what I've read, the new exec that is purging everything wants to focus on "unscripted" shows...trash tv in other words. Very low cost, more viewers, profit higher. What I can't figure out is why bother buying/merging WB when any lesser studio could have provided the same capability/filming logistics for crap shows at a fraction of the cost. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justice98 Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 So far, most of the things being scrapped seem like wise decisions. Some of them shouldn't have been greenlit in the first place. WB made too many bad decisions. Now, I wanted to see the Green Lantern show or another movie, but I don't think the previous regime really had a great plan for anything. WB and DC in particular needs a reset. They were all over the place throwing things against the wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88Comrade2000 Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 So Discovery announced that HBOmax and Discovery + were merging. While WB maybe shedding some questionable projects; I think what’s left is going to be cheap reality fare. The movies /tv shows will be cheap stuff that can turn a big profit. Those expecting the shakeup to improve DC movies; I don’t. Honestly , I can see WBDiscovery selling the DC rights to make money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88Comrade2000 Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 WB should shelve the Flash movie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, jus listened to this, this makes me believe Batgirl was so GD bad they refused to make it work to put in theaters instead: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhead36 Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 I'm glad there will be a sequel to The Batman. Thoroughly enjoyed Robert Pattinson as Batman and wanna see more. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

88Comrade2000 Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 DC finally has a plan. Will it work? Everything they are doing tv, animation, movies will use the same actors. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Momma There Goes That Man Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Ehh this makes me really nervous Kevin Feige didn't write the mcu. He just oversaw it and kinda had an overall map of where things needed to go and would drop input when needed. It seems like Gunn is personally writing and handling like 5-6 of these projects. That's nuts also I don’t like a teen/younger Superman with an established Batman that already has Damian Wayne as Robin and then bringing supergirl into it so early? Seems like we are walking into an established universe of characters already, not sure how I feel about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not optimistic, either. Jus leave Batman on an island and f everything else up like you normally do, I like Pattinson Batman.

That's nuts Yeah, I noticed that too. Like, he's Kevin Feige if Feige petsonally wrote everything himself. lol That gives me pause frankly. James Gunn is cool, but I'm not a James Gunn stan, I dont need him writing everything. But we'll see how it goes. On a side note, if they're open to having multiple Batmen and characters off to the side in an Elseworlds situation, then why not have a Cavill Superman movie? It'd just be off in its own thing like Reeves' Batman and Joker. But they seem adamant Cavill is not to be Superman anymore.

Hersh Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 DCU has really good animated movies/shows but they leave too many good story lines unfinished. Doesn't sound like they will, but they should pick up where some of those projects left off. O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FootballZombie Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Excited about the introduction of Damian Wayne to a wider audience. It also all but guarantees we get a Batman that aint "cool w/ murder" which was not 100% guaranteed. My biggest gripe was lack of info on the Static movie. Is it still coming? Is it canned? re-imagined? Love the character and in a world where both young and minority superheroes have a crazy strong niche it could be a blockbuster for DC.

I just don’t know that I like starting with Batman already having a son and what I can imagine are Nightwing, Batgirl, and perhaps even Red Hood running around. It seems like a such a strange place to start without any information about Talia, the other Robins, and what’s going on to lead up to that point. ill also say that I don’t like Robin in general or the idea of Batman letting a kid run around with him risking his life. It’s never sat right with me or made sense and I dont think it will translate well to live action. But I guess I’m excited to see a true comic book version of Batman, that seems like it’ll be different at least since we usually just get “realistic takes” on Batman. then again, I thought Batfleck is a great combination of comic book and being grounded another DC thing…if Superman has underwear on outside his suit, I’m out. I don’t care. It’s dumb. Everyone knows it, and if a real guy walked around like that they would be laughed at I don’t care how powerful they were.
