In retrospect, was James Gunn making a Jimmy Olsen and gorilla grodd tv show rather than a batman movie the right choice?
Fuck no.
Fuck yes.
>watch Primetime>Jimmy Olsen pretends to be an underage boy to seduce pedophiles for a tv showBravo Gunn
This is why creative freedom's bullshit.
>>156266082Yes, because there was a Batman movie being madeGunn's biggest problem was not having Safran knock ot Matt Reeves door in 2023 and saying "this movie is going into production next year with or without you, and we're folding this into our universe with or without you or Pattinson"
>>156266430/thread
The truth is Gunn prefers to do dogshit like that instead of making something good
James Gunn is a one trick pony and him directing a Batman movie would be awful, he can't even get Superman right.
>>156266430That would have immediately pissed everyone off. Like firing Cavill x10.
>>156266082why was this nigga using threads anyways?
>>156266430yes that was a big issue but is not because gunn was too soft it's because he really, really, REALLY, likes to use z-listers so he can twist them to be whatever the fuck he wantsif he wasn't like that he would have pushed for a batman film (be it reeves or his own) right after superman
>>156266082>In 2 years MCU had Iron Man and Hulk>In 2 year DCU had Superman, Supergirl, Hal Jordan, John Stewart, Guy Gardner, and a lot of side characters that wouldn't get focus in a large project like a cinematic universeIf anything I like that Gunn was doing side stuff, made the DCU seem like it was already connected and worth watching multiple movies and shows. The MCU didn't do that til 4 years after they started.
>>156266747He would've made the lamest Batman ever and it would've flopped overseas because of that.
>>156266747Got Superman more right than Snyder's Christ wannabe
>>156266968It would've been Schumacher but worse and insincere.
>>156266974If so, then the world doesn't like Superman at all since they rejected him. Get the picture?
>>156266082He's a madman
>>156266082Fuck no. It's why he got fired. Brave and the Bold absolutely would have been enough of a deviation from Reeves Batman to stand on its own and really lock in attention for the larger universe. Landing a Brave and the Bold is the equivalent of Justice League themed Batman movie. They would have been covered on the Batman flank with a massive core audience locked in for YEARS.But instead he dragged ass, showed he wasn't a capable writer, and most egregious of all he failed the stakeholders. Had he internalized the golden rule of corporate, he would still be employed.>"Under promise and over deliver."
>>156267037>Brave and the Bold absolutely would have been enough of a deviation from Reeves Batman to stand on its own and really lock in attention for the larger universe.My guy, it would've been Schumacher but with way worse art direction and very insincere. Batman would've been lame as fuck under Gunn.
Word on the street is that zackieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee's back in towwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwn
>>156266082not like he had any choice with THE batman taking forever to fucking finish it, i guess gunn wasnt ruthless enough to call the shoot
>>156267094Then why focus on D-listers then? How is that an alternative?
>>156267105who the fuck are these A listers, WW was gonna get introduced in Man of tomorrow, The flash isnt gonna get a solo movie ever again, batman its stuck with the slowest director alive. the DCU didnt even had the chance to flourish
>>156267176>who the fuck are these A listers, WW was gonna get introduced in Man of tomorrowAfter Supergirl had her movie.
>>156266981He would absolutely give Batman a bat credit card
>>156266082Yes. And I really hope it sees the light of day.
fuck
>>156266082Yeah. They can't make an actual Batman show for stupid licensing reasons and a Jimmy Olsen show by the American Vandal guys is better than another Gotham, Batwoman, or Gotham Knights.
