>Man of Tomorrow will be more serious and grounded than Superman. The title refers to both Superman and Lex Luthor, and much of the film is from Luthor’s perspective.
>The Brave and the Bold has gone through many changes and is a very different story from when it was first announced.
>The connection between the Peacemaker season finale and Man of Tomorrow is Luthor’s deal with A.R.G.U.S. and the creation of the meta-human prison Salvation.
>Waller is still in development and will address what Amanda Waller has been doing during the events of Superman, Peacemaker and Man of Tomorrow.
>Jimmy Olsen and Mister Terrific spinoffs are happening but are still in early development.
>Darkseid won’t be the main villain of the DCU because Zack Snyder already used him and he is too similar to Thanos, but he will be featured in the Mister Miracle animated series, which might be canon.
>Gunn’s DCU plans go much farther, but Man of Tomorrow will provide a satisfying conclusion to many plot threads that have been set up in the previous projects.
>The escalating conflict between meta-humans and the U.S. government is the main connective tissue of Chapter One and is building up to a “Salvation Run” adaptation that might feature superheroes locked up in Salvation as well, not only supervillains.

Not looking good for us Brainiac bros
>>
James Gunn is so lame, bro.
>>
>>150975094
Still not watching anything with Tom King involved.
>>
>>150975094
> which might be canon.
might be, wasn't the whole point of the reboot to label the canon shit DCU and the non canon stuff Elseworlds, what's with the 'might be' shit...
>>
>>150975255
Lanterns was supposed to come out Q1 and it's been nothing but crickets. That shit is obviously having some production issues.
>>
>>150975255
Just think, when Tom King's projects flop we might finally be free from him.
>>
After Lanterns and Supergirl bomb a majority of this stuff is getting quietly canceled or put in development hell.
>>
>>150975285
It means that they haven't decided yet if, the planned adaptation of ONE possible animated series, IF it even happens, will or will not be canon.

This is how the sausage has been made for years, sister. Sorry that people lied to you and made it sound like Kevin Feige had one HUGE book with everything spelled out and the Thanos Glove in Odin's war tribute/museum room wasn't just stuck in a 2010 movie by some random production designer for the LOLZ.
>>
>>150975425
Not suprised James Gunn has been lying nonstop since he became CEO also why are they announcing all this nebulous slop when they still have the authority, bane and deathstroke and sgt rock floating in the ether.
>>
>>150975362
Tom King most now where some bodies are buried. He will probably continue to fail upwards into whatever happens next.
>>
>>150975362
Hope that becomes true before he ruins Supergirl for ever.
>>
>>150975460
Name 1 lie other than saying the Flash movie was good
>>
>>150975094
After nor fcancelling DWJ’s AbsBat annual and Snyder publicly going to a no kings protest Im not watching anything the is loser company makes
>>
>>150975518
That he would label what is canon and what isn't
>>
>>150975544
Has this happened yet or are you just making shit up to be mad about? The project isn't even properly announced, why would he announce if it's canon or not? Are you retarded?
>>
>>150975609
>>150975425
>>
>>150975609
Also that Peacemaker Season 2 finale was worth watching, that shit was some ass.
>>
>>150975618
>It means that they haven't decided yet if, the planned adaptation of ONE possible animated series, IF it even happens, will or will not be canon.
How does "They haven't decided yet" become "He's not labeling what is canon and what isn't"?

I just rewatched Superman Unbound. Something like this would have made a far better framework for a live action movie.

>>
>>150975678
The idiot you're replying to probably thinks Gunn is gonna come out and say "MIRACLE MAN IS CANON TO THE DCU" just ahead of when it airs, when what's actually gonna happen is WE won't know if it's canon or not until something from the DCU links back to it.
Y'know, how it NORMALLY works.
>>
>>150975114
Grounded doesn’t literally mean closer to the ground. He’s basically saying it won’t be as silly and “comic booky” and peacemaker and Superman
>>
>>150975396
I think Lanterns will be a moderate success, but it’s not looking good for supergirl. Audiences don’t give a fuck about female led movies Kek. Furiosa and Ballerina flopped despite being banger movies
>>
>>150978435
Then that implies someone like Brainiac is out because green alien with big brain is definitely comic booky and silly
>>
>>150975094
everytime I see James Gunn my faceblindness immediately sees Adam Savage first so I'm left wondering why is he being brought up in /co/
>>
>>150975114
Brainiac is both realistic and terrifying, he can be 0% goofy and also rather grounded as a rogue AI
>>
Good, Lex should be the final boss
>>
>>150975134
Bro, you lost. People like Superman, bro. You're just not normal, it's okay.
>>
>>150975094
> jimmy olsen spinoff
> not the billion other characters
being a DC fan is suffering
>>
>>150975114
Are any of Supes' villains grounded? The most realistic one is Luthor and he's off the table for now. I feel like you could do high concept shit like Brainiac, Metallo or Bizarro while keeping the setting grounded. Or you could be boring as hell and adapt the gangsters, Toy Man or Zod for the third fucking time.

How do you fuck up at the first hurdle OP
>>
>>150978509
Nah he’s definitely doing Braniac. He had a dude with an exposed brain on the Man of Tomorrow script. What else could that mean? I think “comic booky” to James just means goofy and silly

What will they say when he returns.
>>
>>150975362
Or, if they succeed, he might fuck off to /tv/land
>>
>>150975094
I wouldn't get ahead of myself so much, especially when the company is being sold in parts.
>>
i liked that superman was guilty
>>
>>150979824
*goofy
>>
>>150975094
oh so they're doing Civil War at home
>>
so is this just going to be revolving around superman and peacemaker, what happened to shit like booster gold or paradise lost
>>
>>150980789
Booster Gold is getting a complete rewrite
Paradise Lost was announced to just look good for investors and they have no clue what they want to do with Wonder Woman.
>>
How is this whole CU supposed to work if people who liked Gunn's Superman will not like shit made by not Gunn and obviously Gunn is not going to make every single movie in it?
>>
>>150981171
fuck.
>>
>>150975094
>ARGUS
>Waller
>Peacemaker
>Jimmy Olsen spinoff
>Mister T. spinoff
>Mister Miracle cartoon
>"Salvation Run"

Who the fuck even watches this crap?

They said that Wonder Woman was made a top priority. The script is probably still being written, and most likely by Ana Nogueira. She must be good because DC Studios has already gotten her to write the Supergirl and the Teen Titans script
>>
>>150981515
Oh yes, very good. Check her list of credits on imdb, it is practically never-ending. I really hope they get this WW movie made before Batman
>>
>>150981469
not many judging by the numbers on peacemaker
>>
>>150975094
Trash

*sucking air between teeth noises*
>>
>>150975477
He is heavily rumored to be DC Publisher when Jim Lee retires.
>>
>>150983216
does he have any financial training or experience running a medium enterprise at all, or is it just a trophy position where he'll get shit on by WB when the IRS find out what's going on
>>
>>150975114
When Superman fails so hard as a main character that he is removed from the lead in favor of the autistic Luthor
>>
>>150975094
Damn, this has to be the worst opening to a cinematic universe in history, or at least the weakest.
>>
>>150975094
Building up to Salvation Run, a crossover no one remembers much less remembers fondly, is absolutely insanity
>>
>>150981515
>good
She's cheap since these are her first professional projects ever. Reminds me of that hack they got to write the cancelled Batgirl film and The Flash. They're just getting anybody they can afford besides Gunn.
>>
>>150983726
Dark Universe was worse, this is a close 2nd though.
>>
>>150975094
>Darkseid won’t be the main villain of the DCU because Zack Snyder already used him and he is too similar to Thanos,
Good.

>but he will be featured in the Mister Miracle animated series, which might be canon.
Prep yourselves, we're about to get canon Darkseid kicking back on Miracle's comfy chair.

>>150975535
Seething Sanjay.

>>150975094
>20 years
>they still cannot do a simple straight superman movie
with all these gimmicks it's like playing pokemon jesus
