Why the FUCK is Paul Dini, the man responsible successfully adapting DC comics to screen, not employed at Warner Bros adapting their fucking train wreck cinematic universe? Literally just lock this guy in a basement and have him churn out scripts for 10 months and you'll have billions of dollars onyour hands. Instead they play musical chairs with egotistical directors. Dini as creative and that new Latcham guy as final say would actually have some potentialThis would go double for Dwayne McDuffie if he were still with us
>>156249077The DCAU crew thinks BMWF equals kino, so fuck em
>>156249095Seethe, fag
>>156249077Because he’s not a businessman. We just saw what happened when you put a creative into such a position with Gunn. I would’ve liked him to be part of Gunn’s brain trust at least. Certainly a better pick than Tom King.
>>156249149I'm not advocating full control for Dini, making a creative the studio head is retarded (see: Gunn) But Dini should be up there SOMEWHERE, churning out scripts and giving creative direction to hired gun (lol) filmmakers.
>>156249077He will just try to push his own stories like all the other times comic writers became heavily involved
>>156249077It'd be Batman and friends just like the DCAU
>>156250123The DCAU was successful though
>>156249077>>156249149I'm surprised they didn't get Greg Weisman as a consultant. The guy's biggest talent is creating comprehensive, lived-in fictional worlds. He's also had a lot of experience in both DC comics and TV.
>>156249887Dini is a television writer first. Comics have always been a side gig for him.
>>156249077At least the new guy the Ellisons brought in is honest about religion. Dini is a Butch Hartman type, loves Jesus but never wants a single cross shown in media, repackages Christian morals as "common sense"
>>156249077He's not experienced with stories meant for live-action
>>156251322Comic books?
>>156249077Because he made cartoons and everyone knows that cartoons are only for kids.
>>156249077Paul Dini SUCKS
>>156253152No he doesn't!! Paul Dini ROCKS!
>>156251519This. You can get stigmatized out of live action easy just because you wrote animation in the part. Never the other way around, though.
>>156250123That would be an improvementThe Snyderverse had no Batman solo moviesJames Gunn's entire universe happened BETWEEN Batman solo movies unrelated to his universePants on head retarded, making a DC film universe with no solo Batman films is like a Spider-Man universe with no Spider-Man.
>>156251258>repackages Christian morals as "common sense"Based
>>156249077>Dwayne McDuffieToo much melanin for the Elisons or whichever Israeli worshipping fuck who owns DC
>>156250623Seasons 3&4 of Young Justice are proof he lost the sauce
>>156254038His latest work has been awful.
>>156251258Cope
>>156255556but jews love the blackies
>>156256033>>156255532Ellison bots who want me to bow down to the hypothetical new DC movies that aren't even made yet
His best work is well over 20 years ago now. He's not really great anymore.
>>156249077kicking myself for not asking that to him at a con rn
>>156251322>>156251519Dini created and showran Tower Prep and wrote episodes of Creepshow. He's done live action before. >>156255594And they're still better than a lot of Gunn's DCU output. If nothing else, Weisman's near-autistic proficiency for worldbuilding would've been a plus.
>>156259366He was also story editor for the first season of Lost and wrote an episode. He even made a joke about it in Arkham City.
>>156258616many such cases!
>>156249077>This man made my favourite cartoon thirty years ago, why isn’t he in charge?!?’Just because he wrote some popular cartoon episodes decades ago doesn’t mean every movie script he would write would be the best thing ever
>>156256010They can't all be winners
