DC needs to get over this idea that people care about Superman, let alone Supergirl.
These are products of a simpler age, where a man on wire pretending to fly, was still enough to get people to a theatre.

As far as DC heroes go, people like Batman. And... Batman.
Some people like stuff like John Constantine and Sandman, but that's a considerably more niche audience.
No one really cares about the rest of the Justice League. They're kind of dorks.

I don't believe it's super hero fatigue, it's fatigue from the movies being soulless agenda driven culture war demoralization
The first Joker movie proves you wrong and the second one proves the behind the scenes agenda of demoralization
These movies don't have to be cornball shit to give a minority actor and actress a job, but that's what's happening and turning people away which you call super hero fatigue, if they respected the source material and wanted to tell a cool story people would still show up, another example is how they cut all of christian bale's gorr the god killer's character scenes from the last thor movie, they are purposely sabotaging this shit, the movie industry is filled with spiteful agenda driven cunts that like to or get off on fantagonism

How? There is only Superman, and Peacemaker Season 2 in the DCU, with Peacemaker S1, Creature Commando, and Suicide Squad getting recycled into the mix.

It's kind of funny how Snyderfags always compare Gunn's and Snyder's Superman numbers to try to prove the later is more successful. Right now, Gunn is on a dire situation because the masses are fed up with superheroes, and Snyder's career is somehow on an even worse position.
If you are going to compare their success you should use Gunn's shit that came out during the peak of capeslop era, like Guardians of the Galaxy.

A long mystery is great, but the writing is terrible and not worth the length of that film. Never mind the fact everyone feels like a moron in it. I’d be less annoyed if each of these Batman films didn’t have a 5 year gestation, but when it takes that long one tends to overhype and be disappointed when it’s just mediocre
>>
>>220530980
Tragically Snyder understood the assignment even if he didn’t take a straightforward path like the MCU that people wanted. Focus on the mainline characters that people actually give a shit about and make it as epic as possible. If Gunn did his job correctly 2025 would’ve had a Superman movie, Wonder Woman movie, and a Batman movie (or The Batman 2) to firmly hammer in a new trinity leading into a Justice League movie. Instead he’s dicking around on random bullshit riding high on his own twitter ego. He’s like speedrunning phase 4 of the mcu. Stop it with the side characters and the shows, nobody cares about them and they don’t produce money. The cherry on top is that he hired a churn writer for the new Batman that oversaw some of the DCEUs biggest flops. So the whole “restore the brand” thing is out the window now.

The access media for some reason, only wanted Marvel to succeed. The media destroyed all other competition. I don't know how much of that is Disney. I popular YouTuber said he was uninvited to a Marvel press junket by Disney because of a favorable review he made for Aquaman. Who knows, but the media even attacked FOX Marvel. I maintain to this day, X-Men Days of Future Past is the best and purest comic book movie of all time, tied with Spiderman 2 Sam Raimi, Captain America: AWS, and of course the Godfather Part II of all comic books movies, TDK. Then Marvel started pumping out crap the media attempted to hold them accountable but it was too late, Disney completely has synergy on its side.

Green Lanturn used to be the main superhero group leading DC in the early 2000s, at least with comics. The movie bombing was heavily negative for the perception of the character with normalfags. Flash did well with the TV show but the movie being bad fucked it up for him. Womnder women will always be good, Aquaman probably peaked recently with the Aquaman films.

>>
>>220530980
I didn't even realize they officially ended the DCEU until I looked it up just now.
I imagine a big problem is how their whole universe continuity kept getting fucked up for one reason or another. A lot of it seemed like studio execs self-sabotaging; they had a good start with Man of Steel, and then they released Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (a stupidly long title btw), a movie that Snyder put a lot of autistic vision into but got reined in by the producers, ending up at an awkward middle ground that was the dogshit theater version... well honestly I've never watched the theater version, I've only watched Ultimate Edition, which was fantastic, but I heard the theater version was terrible. Anyway, both of those were profitable, and then they followed it up with Suicide Squad, which was hilariously bad but also profitable. Then they released Wonder Woman, getting all the girls to the theater with female empowerment and shit and then killed off Steve twice lol to live in their head rent free, very profitable.
After that was:
>Justice League: Terrible, Snyder and most of the cast left, Joss Whedon lmfao, box office bomb, beginning of the end
>Aquaman: Good shit, printed money
>Shazam!: Literally who?
>Birds of Prey: what
>WW1984: COVID
>The Suicide Squad: Actually great, a brief moment where the DCEU seemed like it was back on its feet (turned out to be a fluke)
>Black Adam: Cast Dwayne Johnson at his peak ego
>Shazam! 2: Literally who?
>The Flash: Ezra Miller in his IRL villain era
>Blue Beetle: Literally who?
>Aquaman 2: Kept Amber Heard at peak of her public hatred

I got massively carried away there. The point I never got to was their movies (initially) made money, but that somehow did not make the execs happy (WHY AREN'T OUR FIRST MOVIES AS POPULAR AS MARVEL'S ESTABLISHED FRANCHISE REEEEEEEE), and they kept meddling with shit until no one had any idea what was going on and eventually said fuck it and killed off DCEU.

It’s true though. If another more competent actress was Wonder Woman the DCEU wouldn’t have been scrapped. Gal was a horrendous ball and chain on the character. The actor should be uplifting the character not the other way around.

It’s clear they were randomly picking properties to adapt into movies, without any real roadmap or buildup to something bigger.

See what I mean? Gunn is innocent to these anons.

I remember one of the Batgirl directors bitching on Twitter about losing system access and henceforth being unable to download the movie. Snyder and Nolan have it in their contracts that they can keep and take home footage.

WB allegedly tried to tarnish Zack Snyder’s reputation by claiming he took the black-and-white version of the Justice League files from their server and transferred them to his personal laptop without permission. Among other things they said.

The real answer is Gunn cutting any possibility of continuing the DCEU.

Never let freaky nerds be in charge of a franchise meant to appeal globally.

Marvel only became a mess to follow post-Endgame when they started expecting you to watch the shows. With the DCU there's really no way to explain what it entails without sounding like Comic Book Guy from The Simpsons.

I thought Superman was okay but hated GI Robot in Creature Commandos and have no interest in Hal Jordan passing the mantle to John Stewart and a lack of green in Lanterns. Also I never understood why you people liked Milly Alcock and thought Phia Saban was a cute.

These movies need to make money so yeah. They have to appeal to normal people globally. No one's doing this shit pro-Bono, autist.

Nah

The advantage of superhero movies is that they have material to pull from the comics, tons and tons of it

>I get the first film did well, but it's fucking insane they let Reeves take this fucking long to write a script.
>The script is the worst part of the 1st movie anyway.

Robert Pattinson has already joked several times in interviews that he doesn't look like a young Bruce Wayne anymore. That they took too long to write a sequel.
>>
>>220549705
Yeah, they adapt it. But movies need to appeal to a wider audience to make a profit. Cape flicks are expensive to produce, so they need a global success over a domestic one.

Following the release of the Snyder cut discussion around his movies and DC in general became very disingenuous. There used to be nuanced discussion, layered and flavorful. Now people just abhorrently bash his DC work because they either fundamentally disagree with his interpretations or mindlessly regurgitate popular video essayist opinion. This is a problem because his DC work champions for artistic value and fights against post modern capeslop patterns that mcu phases 4/5 and the dcu know all too well. We need originality, ingenuity, and artistic expression back stat. The new Spider-Man movie is literally marketing on this.

The big audiences have an average attention span of zero

Your only chance at being mainstream is do what disney wars did and toss eveything you get at the screen, more ideas more crap you can toss at the screens

The Batman itself wasn't a huge success, I'm not sure what makes you believe the sequel will outperform it.
It's just much less competent Nolanbats with a worse Bruce.

I personally bash the Snyderverse because it was tryhard srs bsnss Supercrap that in the end was still completely goofy and shittily written.
You can't even just turn your brain off and enjoy it as stupid fun, because it hates fun.
>>
>>220550457
DC isn’t for fun it’s for self inserting and your inner darkness. Your edgy 12yo self. If you want fun go to the MCU. Every time DC attempts fun it flops. There is literally a single DC movie that’s had fun and succeeded and it’s Aquaman. Jason Momoa happened to be just the right guy at just the right time in just the right China. Unironically go fuck yourself.

>>220531325
Both Gunn and Snyder were horrible picks for mainline DC films.

Qrd last I remember he was king of the sea wasn't he?

>>220550848
Snyder was a good fit for DC. He just got hit from too many sides: professional critics and social media culture warriors (both masquerading as generic media criticism but politically motivated in reality), lore autists and WB corporate (this was one too much). You're going to see this machine spin up again if/when Gunn exits and Paramount sticks to their guns on a more normie straight male audience.

The movies suck and James Gunn is a colossal fucking idiot who is too stupid to know he's an idiot.

He does know he has Batman too right?

>>220530980
DC was doing fine, or at least better by just having standalone movies/trilogies rather than a whole MCU type deal. Problem is execs saw Avengers making big box office and wanted their own, but didn't want to put in the time to actually build one up. So they barely rushed out the bare minimum before throwing up Justice League and trying to tailor the brand identity to match Marvel. That failed of course, mostly because the DC movies were plagued by grimdark retard shit vs the more lighthearted MCU.

DC crossover events usually suck too. Seems dumb to try to base a movie universe off that model.

Still kinda pales in comparison to the source material. Then again it was kinda a product of its time and I dunno if you can do a 80s/90s Morrison comic like that in a modern setting and on tv.
