Has James Gunn being doing a good job? What do you hope from the future?

I think this will all get cancelled after WB is sold

Half of those announced projects won't happen.

It borns dead

>>153162006
Warner bros fucked up their chances to compete with Marvel and this attempt to reboot their movieverse is gay. Just give up.
>>
>>153163246
DC should look its own identity rather than trying to be marvel-lite. Say what you want about the Snyderverse but it had a clear identity and it developed a loyal following for that

So local they didn't watch blue moon

I do agree that most of the announced projects won’t happen because of Paramount moving directions, but it’s pretty obvious they want a big movie franchise to lean on besides Transformers and Star Trek, Superman made more money than any of the Sonic movies and they green lit Sonic 4 right after 3 got good reviews and made its money back, there’s no way they’ll just throw everything in a trash can and restart they haven’t done anything stupid to prove they would. They’ll probably just keep Gunn on a tight leash and make bigger plans

I do think going forward they need to hurry up on their Batman ideas, either pay out the ass to contract Pattinson or hire someone new already, starting 2 DCUs without a solo Batman movie in sight is pure madness, and instead of doing a Justice League movie they should do a Worlds Finest movie instead, keep it small, keep it collected, having a movie where Batman and Superman hag out and act like bros will clean up their relationship to the mainstream so hard it’s unreal. I’m honestly hoping they don’t even do a justice league movie, the later DCU movies completely tarnished a LOT of reputations

Let's predict which future projects will happen:
>Man of Tomorrow
Yes
>The Authority
No
>The Brave and the Bold
It will happen, but as a more traditional Batman reboot starring Dick Grayson after it's revealed The Batman Part 3 won't happen.
>Swamp Thing
No
>Wonder Woman
Yes
>Teen Titans
Yes, but after they figure out The Brave and The Bold
>Bane & Deathstroke
No
>Sgt. Rock
No
>Creature Commandos Season Two
Yes
>Booster Gold
No
>Waller
No
>Paradise Lost
No
>Blue Beetle
Yes, but only because it's animated
>Mister Miracle
Ditto as Blue Beetle
>Jimmy Olsen
Yes
>Untitled Secret Television Project
I don't even know what this is
>>
>>153162006
There's no point in making an Authority movie when one of its core member got completely revamped as a different character in all but name
>>
>>153162006
Eh, I'm not impressed. Fortunately I like comic books so I don't need these film and tv projects to be good to enjoy these franchises.

Superman was pretty good. Not as good as Superman 1 from '78, but good.
Certainly better than the Snyder vision of Superman, but that's a low bar.
Something I've been surprised with has been the vulgarity. Now I'm no prude, but I always felt these characters, the DC world, has always meant more to children than it would to adults. So I always like it to be all-ages appropriate.
And, more importantly, the ways the DCU so far has tried to be 'adult' have felt so ridiculously adolescent.

I'm looking forward to Supergirl, I think that has potential to be better than Superman, which although good left much room for improvement. It's a different take on the character, but one which is fun and more unique for the purposes of building some cinematic universe.
Lanterns looks like it might be a well done show, but a missed opertunity for a true Green Lantern show. You can tell, and have been able to tell for ages, that most of Hollywood does not want to do superhero projects. They want creative, original fiction, and are fulfilling that urge by making shows which are only about superheroes in name only.

Bane and Deathstroke's script has been finished for a year now.

I'm just hoping some insider leaks it. Even if it doesn't get made

>I don't even know what this is
There's some TV show that Gunn is going to work on it after Man of Tomorrow. He's described it as his "favorite thing", that it has a writer and director attached, that they were asking about how to do costumes and VFX,
>There was one thing that I knew about from the very beginning that when I pitched to David Zaslav what the DCU would be, I pitched to him, but we did not announce in that first meeting because I felt like it was too easy to rip off by another company.
No one knows what it is.

>>153163189
"half" of those "announced" projects aren't actually announced

>>153163299
>>153163638
it's called a cult
very popular these days
>>
I like how nothing has the same tone outside of Gunn's stuff. Unfortunately, all of his stuff has been what has been released so far.
>>
>>153163547
Whats Blue Moon?

>what do we think of the first year of the DCU?
