>>154850934NUKE THE BIG 2'S OWNERS
>not even an official statement>just tacked on to another more relevant studio's statementDC has reached a new level of leeching
>>154850934DCU in shambles. Break the emergency Bat-glass now.
Boosterbros, it's over.
So other than Superman/Supergirl has every movie and show from Gunn's original slate been cancelled or gone into development hell?
>>154850934Really? It was only sixteen days from being released.
>>154851074I was actually hoping that they'd reprint his first run bc of the show but it really is over.
>>154850934what went so wrong with blade anyways? it sounds like an easy movie to make.couldn't have been the rating thing
>>154850934Good. The last time they "adapted" Booster Gold was casting the black guy from Scrubs in a baseball cap.
>>154851205It was going to be about Blade's daughter, not him.
>>154851205Last time I heard about it, they tried 3 different scripts and all of them sidelined Blade in favour of his daughter/some other woman
>>154850934His, Booster Gold. Far as I know he was meant to write a pilot, and likely didn't go from it. Basically the series was thrown into development hell unless they found a new scriptwriter, who knows if he will still be the showrunner.>>154851205I guess it was probably because it was hard to find a place for him, and with multiple scripts that would according to several rumors, sideline him.
>>154850934Good. Who the fuck cares or has ever remotely cared about Booster Gold?
Booster fans dodged a bullet imo
>>154850934good, no miscast
>>154851422Kumail should really get a new agent...
>>154851468https://youtu.be/D1G4glp986Q
Supergirl only made $130M worldwide total and as a comparison the Blue Beetle movie made more ($140M). Supergirl was such a huge bomb that Gunn's fantasy of making Z-list DC characters into WB Hollywood movies with budgets of $100M+ is gone now.Supergirl = 130M final worldwide box office grossSpider-Man = $250M+ in its previews / opening in less than 1 day
They called him the Greatest Hero You've Never Heard Of for a reason.
>>154850934It's not cancelled, they just didn't like Jenkins's script. Maybe it was too gay or too DEI. Shelved for now I guess.
>>154851696I doubt it will ever come out. They just released this to offset the bad impression. Same with the MCU releasing news of Emma Frost casting.
>>154850934I'm just hoping they'll cancel Paradise Lost.As a Wonder Woman fan I don't want to see Paradise Island turned into some shit imitation of Game of Thrones
>>154851629Supergirl will never make money on her own simply on the merit of being Supergirl. Spinoff adjacent characters who exist to market to teenage girls don't in this case just aren't going to make money on the level of a main hero. Blue Beetle's problem is really bad marketing plus no effort to make the character look cool. He doesn't even do any hero stuff for most of the movie. It was just anti-immigration enforcement trying to be Mexican Black Panther.
Lanterns will be good right?
DC has been trying to make a BG show since 2011.
>>154851797The newest trailer actually looks like a real GL show but still probably not. I'll at least give it credit if it avoids the soapbox vulgarity of the Peacemaker show.
>>154851797meh at best
>>154851838They won't. Expect a lot of "fuck".
>>154851205they kept sidelining blade for other characters in his supposed movie like they didnt learn anything from blade trinity
>>154851881Cursing is fine if lazy attempts at mature writing. I'm talking about no cameltoe or BBC jokes.
>>154851572denise looked amazing in undercover brother. an all around great film in general, but damn....
>>154851468Kinda retarded virtue signal cause there's a much, much bigger thing that released just now that would offset that news even harder
>>154851205They explicitly wanted to pull a Star Wars and replace Blade with his daughter
>>154851205I recall an article where someone attached said they didn't want to just do a black guy killing vampires.Imagine the guys behind Iron Man, Thor, Captain America or any movie saying they didn't want to do the premise of the thing they're working on.
>>154850934Finally some justice.
>>154852153Stop playing with his feelings!
>>154850934Was it that hard to follow up the Superman movie with Batman and Wonder Woman movies?
>>154852673They should just make a JLI show.Do they really think Booster can carry a solo series?
>>154852840He can.
>>154852898No he can't. His character is literally tied to the future & renown of other characters.
Gunn said sorry bro but there’s not enough needle drops from this gay glam rock band I like
>>154852943Is that why he fired the faggot? Kys, Snyderbro.
>>154852929He literally just needs Blue Beetle.
>>154851229Yeah, Blade fans dodged a huge bullet. I don't know who has that one brain cell at Marvel that kept delaying that shit, but thank you.
In hindsight, which movie should have followed Superman? Justice Gang?
>>154852929I guess you didn't read his solo series.
> Supergirl flops > DCU projects start falling a partWelp we knew it was going to happen. Gunn lost the company more then 100 million and Man of tomorrow won't make the billion Warner/Paramount expects, its over, the Gunn is done.
>>154853051>firing a bad writer and hiring new ones is falling apartKys Snyderbro.
>>154850934Yeah, we get it. We're stuck with Batshit forever, that's the only thing people care about.
>>154852962That's still not a solo then.
>>154850934Good because Kumail as Booster was a fucking terrible decision. I don't know how Gunn got Superman so right.
>>154852962This.
>>154851422I forgot that they were in talks with this hideous creature for it to play Booster.I miss when people in Hollywood were either beautiful, talented or both but now, nobody is either and none moreso than this ugly cunt. Seriously, did his pregnant mother piss off a gypsy caravan? Why the FUCK is Kumail such a challenge to look at? He's gypsy-curse-ugly. I can't imagine any other explanation..>>154851455Kumail should really get a new job. Maybe VA or something. I'm pretty sure that filming this ghastly twat violates the Geneva convention.
>>154852973WW
>>154852973>Justice GangI think so.Do what the original rumor of the Superman movie being a busy week in Superman's life, but for the trio as a vehicle to show how much they get up to and what else is in this DCU. Locations on Earth and in space, problems, allies, mysteries.Kick it off by having Mr. Terrific say everything they're dealing with has ties to stuff Luthor did or was going to do to keep them occupied once he learned they might help Superman. Now none of it has to make cohesive sense, it's all spread out distractions they have to clean up across a superhero road trip movie.Gunn could get all his obscure references and musical numbers out of the chaotic scenes and WB could screen reactions to certain scenes to know what to expand on later.
>>154852973In a perfect world, obviously fucking Batman but that's in a weird place so Wonder Woman
We need the not Watchmen.
>>154853099He was never cast.
>>154852973Diana
>>154852973Superman iiJust make a superman series with some references and cameos to other heroes
>>154852725Nah we have to wait 9 more years for Matthew Reeves to write Batman 2 for some reason.I don't even like Batman that much but you could easily put out a batman movie every 2 years without any problem
>>154852725Yes, Batman’s currently in limbo thanks to the Reeves movies and Wonder Woman still has the toxic stink of Gadot and Snyder and Wonder Woman can’t shake off toxic stink as easy as Batman or Spider-Man so she’s gotta be on the shelf for a while. See also Green Lantern, that movie came out 15 goddamn years ago and they’re just now putting together a new Green Lantern thing but even that dials down the actual Green Lantern stuff and isn’t even actually called Green Lantern. The real retardation was trying to build a new DCU when the majority of their major hitters are on the bench.
>>154850934Here's your Booster Gold
>>154851696This show has been in development for 3½ years now. How much the fuck longer can they keep developing it.
If James Gunn had been sent in by Kevin Feige as a sleeper agent to sabotage the new DC movie universe, would he be doing anything different?
>>154854128He would've been so good.
>>154853099>I don't know how Gunn got Superman so right.It is easy, he didn't.
>>154854180Hilariously, no. He would be doing the same stale, boring shit.
>>154854206Nah he did, that and Peacemaker season one. I think the merger blew everything up.
>>154854449No, he didn't. Peacemaker also fucking sucked since day one.
>>154854180>sent in by Kevin Feige as a sleeper agent to sabotage the new DC movie universeThis is retarded, the worst thing Gunn did was announce a whole slate of shit before filming started on a single project which he was likely forced to do by the studio to please investors. It’s fucking retarded to announce a whole bunch of shit that doesn’t even have a script yet because you just never know what’s going to happen. Scripts might not come together, a failed project makes the studio more skittish about certain things. Immediately announcing fifteen projects before even one gets out has bitten studios in the ass so many goddamn times and yet they still never learn.
>>154854455What’s your preferred Superman adaptation? Don’t be a pussy now
>>154851745I think the problem with a show focusing on the Amazons is that they’re always portrayed in one of two ways, as a perfect society of women (boring) or man-haters (also boring). There’s never any attempt to make them a real society, because in real societies people don’t all think the same way, regardless of what their government wants.
>>154854520The original movies, though only the first and the director’s cut of the second, along with the DCAU cartoons, the Smallville series, and, yes, the Snyder’s films all stand out. Gunn’s Superman, however, feels like the fake Clark Kent persona nonstop, with shallow characterization. There’s nothing to him beyond the constant “Aw shucks” attitude and being beaten and crapped down, as if the only way Gunn can make him relatable is by turning him into a pathetic failure.The less said about the plot, the better. You could find actual black holes in it, get it? Black holes.
Not a huge deal, I'd rather see Booster as a supporting character anyway
>>154853164>I miss when people in Hollywood were either beautiful, talented or both but now,post a selfie
>>154854661Are you a chatbot? You sound like a chatbot
>>154854661>The original movies, though only the first and the director’s cut of the second, along with the DCAU cartoons, the Smallville series, and, yes, the Snyder’s films all stand out.Hello based department
>>154850934>show isn't canceled and is just being revampedWhy did OP lie?
>>154854818screencapped for when it gets quietly dropped
>>154854818You are genuinely retarded if you don't understand that Gunn/Safran are sending out their shills to drop info to cushion the blow It happens in Hollywood all the time Disney/Marvel just did it to soften the fact they canned Wonder Man season 2 and Blade by announcing more Xmen castings through the trades
>>154854863Not to mention that Gunn/Safran HAVE to have shit in production at least on paper by the time the merger happens or they will have less leverage to use so they can avoid being booted
>>154854180He would be doing better
>>154854175Seems like you should be able to pump out a superhero movie or tv show in about a month (at least in terms of an actual script)they are all basically the same movie
>>154851205mahershala has no charisma and they were going to make him a blm character
>>154854892>>154854863>snyderfags are coping this hard
>>154852973Batman. Then World’s Finest.
>new creative team>Tom King comes in>production suddenly fast-trackedJust kill it now.
>>154851036James Gunn was hoping you would just forget it
>>154854863>LE SHILLS!!!!!1!!!1!you have never said anything worth listening to
>>154851137Lanterns survived, and we got the other James Gunn shows. Everything else though is dead, yes
>>154852725The complications with the Matt Reeves Batverse and Gal Gadot claiming she was still Wonder Woman is what derailed those movies
>canceled for the Xth timeThis has to be a bit right?
>>154850934What were they thinking giving a D-lister with a virtually non-existent fanbase like Booster Gold his own show in the first place? No one asked for this.
>>154851205They didn't just want to do a blade movie, they wanted to do a blade movie setting up his daughter and eventual replacement and the midnight sonsLook at Spider-Man, which is a really good Spider-Man movie buried in a backdoor X-Men pilot, with a Hulk and Punisher reset
>>154856112Why did Hulk get reset anyway, like what is the reasoning on professor Hulk being gone aside from, Marvel needed Savage Hulk back because people don’t like Ruffalo Hulk
>>154856307They're doing secret wars as a hodgepodge of both the original and Hickman and I would put hard cash on Hulk lifting that mountain upSo they need larger, savage Hulk
>>154856307If you meant story reasons then its either Hulk persona was more resistant to mind attacks thus he resurfaced or Bruce has been suppressing the Hulk persona until Jean broke his control.
>>154856021I mean at the time it made more sense than Waller or even Jimmy/Grodd.
>>154850934We dodged a bulletThey were about to cast a jeetI want blue and gold not blue and shit brown
>>154854509>This is retarded, the worst thing Gunn did was announce a whole slate of shit before filming started on a single project which he was likely forced to do by the studio to please investors.I mean, the slate itself is absolutely something you can blame Gunn for. Start a new DC cinematic universe with Superman, sure. That's actually an awesome idea. But your next movie is... Supergirl? And then... Clayface? We should have gotten movies of two of these three: Wonder Woman, Flash, Batman, Green Lantern, or MAYBE Aquaman. In other words, Gunn's next couple of movies should have been about actual big-shot DC superheroes, not sidekicks, villains, and D-Listers.Gunn thinks he can do his Guardians Of The Galaxy shit again, but he forgets that by the time that movie came out, the MCU was already into Phase 2. We'd already gotten two Iron Man movies, two Captain America movies, two Thor movies, and Avengers 1. And they'd all been huge hits. The public's buy-in to the MCU was already at full-tilt so they were willing to take a chance on a quirkier cast of characters like the Guardians. Gunn's DCEU has not won nearly that much goodwill yet.
>>154851167kek
>>154856695>Start a new DC cinematic universe with Superman, sure.Erm actually it started with Creature Commandos.
>>154856804Does /co/ talk about this show at all?
>>154855010>>154855522>Studio executives don't have their own shills/contacts in the tradesYou're either delusional or retarded
>>154855591>Lanterns survivedAnd they will regret that
>>154851205Marshela didn't want to do a Blade movie. It wasn't gonna be about vampire hunting. He wanted to do an art film about slavery and shit using Blade. So they kept fighting over scripts, because neither side wanted what the other wanted to do.Considering Marvel wanted to do retarded shit like sidelining Blade in his own movie in favour of his daughter, its probably a good thing it imploded and neither side made the Blade flick they wanted.
Why do people recommend starting with booster gold volume 2 without reading 52 first?
>>154853164>>154851455Didn't his dumbass agent cost him his gig as Prismo's VA?
>>154856843not anymore but there used to be threads about it pretty regularly when it was on. T.B.H. I only browsed them for the screencaps of the fish lady
>>154854661>yes, the Snyder’s films all stand out.Yeah, for being pretty bad, sure.
>>154851205
Hope Brave and the Bold is next to get canceled because fuck Damian.
>>154851205Fat Karens keep pushing for an idea that won't sell and won't accept any other ideas without crying misogyny.
>>154856389Yeah that’s what I was looking for, sorry for the late response I forgot what thread I posted this in.
>>154856695I fail to see the problem
I don't really need a Booster Gold adaptation when King is James Gunn's comic book guy. His writing for Booster was just terrible.
>>154850934Booster Fold.
>>154857570>if i pretend to be retard i won't have to face realityKeep it up Snyderbro. Two more weeks and we'll get Justice League 2.
>>154851455no he shouldn't
>>154850934I love brutally honest actors. More balls than all the faggots in these threads.
>>154854661>the fake Clark Kent personaClark Kent is who he is. 'Superman' is a thing he does.
>>154855010>>snyderfags are coping this hardSnyderhomos invented coping. It's literally all they do.
>>154852725should've just made a superman trilogy while reeves made his own bat trilogy i dunno what dc is thinking lule.
>>154852973superman 2
>>154857992I don’t believe any of this
>>154852973Batman, Wonder Woman, Justice LEAGUE
>>154851205They wanted to transfer the Blade valor to a new diversity hire black lady they could then shove into the Avenger's cast.So cancelling Blade pretty much goes hand-in-hand with Doomsday being finished. They never had any plans to use Blade, just steal his name for somebody else.
>>154859296Hello, John Byrne. There is a difference between work office Clark, and home Clark.
>>154850934>>154851026>make an actual good choice of not developing those 2 pieces of shit>in the picture that illustrates this thread, Ali looks like a round shaped tomato head while he is supposed to be Blade>NUKE THE BIG 2 OWNERS, WE NEED MORE SHIT, I NEED MORE SHITNah fuck off.
>>154851205Negros are serious bussiness now, so it was mandated to be a PRESTIGE movie, but also need to make money and setup more sequels so the PRESTIGE part would be in conflict with the capeshit, and the replace Blade with his daughter that is better than him story line was going to kill any chance of making money.So the movie was pulling into conflicting directions: prestige movie, capeshit cog, feminist replacement story and making money. It was an impossible puzzle to solve.
>>154850934I think it was proposed with the idea of making him a duo with Blue Beetle who was in theory the first DCU character except that flopped so..
>>154851629Supergirl isnt even a Z lister like Booster Gold lmao. I mean its not A tier, but its definitely B tier, not really lower than Batgirl
>>154850934Gonna be honest if that's your actors statement on the movie being cancelled you probably dodged a bullet of dealing with a diva, not surprising with Blade desu.
>Blade show wasn't even about Blade>Booster Gold show wouldn't have even been about BoosterGood.
>>154851797The curse of DC is that they make good stuff on occasion to encourage the studio that people still want to watch stuff but then when the next product comes out it's dogshit and loses a lot of money.
>>154854509>This is retarded, the worst thing Gunn did Nigga lets review what was released, ok, not the dead projects. Only what was done.>Decides to start from The suicide squad instead of full reboot, R-rated, flop and shit movie>goes into Peace Maker S1, R-rated, not family friendly tv series>Creature Commando S1, R-rated animated tv series, Z list characters>Superman movie, featuring some B list randos, family friendly>the story follow ups from the family friendly movie into R-rated dick fart joke Series PeaceMaker s2>Supergirl movie >clayface movie (lolwut)>Superman 2, family friendly movie>Bane and deathstrokeA kid literally is not allowed to follow up the fucking main story. Now Im up for r rated projects that can be separated or self contained once you build something already, but literally a kid cant follow up the series being a minor. Its retarded.If I put you this list a project, you would laugh and call me a retard or schizophrenic, which it is. How the fuck did Gunn do nothing wrong? Go read the watching list again. Its deranged. EXPLAIN TO ME slowly, how the fuck does this list, this progression makes sense.>wonder woman, teen titans, batman movie all given to a single woman writer with no credits at all>insists on the flash cinematographer for some reason
>>154861594The only canceled DCU project has been The Authority.
>>154861730Thats why I only listed what was released, genius. Can you in good faith say this is a good introduction to any universe? that it has momentum? sense of building something? or is it just a cocaine fever dream?Thats why I didnt even talk about cancelled shit, why would you come up with it anyways? why are you talking about cancelled shit when I didnt even mention cancelled projects? uh uh?Also Waller was cancelled too.
>>154861730Did you forget about the Amanda Waller show?
>>154854100>Wonder Woman still has the toxic stink of Gadot and SnyderCope
>>154854100The toxic stink of gadot and snyder made 800m. Still sells a shit ton figures to this day. Unlike Supergirlbomb which were already at discount one week after the movie released. And the Zimmer theme of WW is arguably more known in pop culture than the classic Linda one. While I personally dont like Gadot for being too skinny, a bad actress and a jewess, there is no toxix stink. People love her and would gladly watch another action movie like the first one. The mistake of the second one is to make a Superman 78 like movie out of it.
>>154861493What was the Booster show about?
>>154850934Good. Who the fuck wants a Booster Gold show without Ted Kord?
>>154852673
>>154861832>>154861796Wrong>Gunn later told People in August 2025 that the team is still working on the project. He said, “We’re working on it, so we’ll see what happens. Some things have moved faster than others. Waller’s not been the fastest. But I can’t wait to see Viola put on their Waller pants again.” This statement shows that the creators still have hope, even though progress is slow.
>>154862657>August 2025A year ago
>>154862699And there's been no cancelation announcement, and we've gotten Checkmate set up since.
This is a good thing. Hollywood cannot make a good Boost Gold series at this time.
>>154858098What's ironic is that if they just made a Blade movie where it sticks to the source and is just Blade being cool & killing vampires, then they'd get what they want of having more "diversity" and whatnot in media.
