Normies don't care about DC characters aside from Batman. Wonder Woman and Aquaman were flukes. This is like the forced meme of cinematic universes. Can't wait to see how they embarrass themselves next.
>>224231823You don't know anything, you socially inept gay little homo. Hehe SHAMONA! OW!
>>224231899I kind of want to read that X-Men comic with Superman on the cover from the AI reality.
>>224231823Just go full full DBZ with Superman. Invincible is successful because of its violent not!Kryptonians. Superman vs Black Adam would have made profit, DC is run by idiots.
>>224231933Man of Steel already did this and everybody hated it.
How was the Arrowverse, without a Batman, successful enough to last for fucking 40 seasons of TV?
>>224231977tv shows are cheaper to make than movies
>>224231952>Man of Steel already did this and dorks hated it.FTFY
>>224232032CW lost the WB a shit ton. They were never profitable
>>224232032But also don't reach the same returns that movies do. The Arrowverse made more money licensing it to Netflix rather than with anything else.
>>224232098You have to attract normies if you want to make money. The christcuck guy they just hired has the right idea.
>>224231823>Normies don't care about DC characters aside from BatmanCorrect
>>224231823Mavel benefited with multiple studios owning their characters. WB had onetitist with Superman and then Batman. Where Fox had X Men, Universal had The Hulk, Orion had The Punisher, Sony got Spider Man. Miramax had Blade.
>>224232132Superman never been in a billion dollar movie. Batman hasn’t been in one since Nolan. But yeah just pump out more, that won’t make moviegoers sick of them even more
>>224231823They'll care if the movies are good. Marvel succeeded at making successful movies with mass market appeal out of characters that nobody aside from comic book nerds had ever heard of before, and some that people had heard of but probably didn't take seriously like Captain America. The proof of concept is there.
>>224232132Superman is too attached to America to be successful
>>224232127>You have to attract normies if you want to make moneyExactly. Gunnman was just too weird and goofy for them while BND had the right balance for everyone.
>>224231823DC has no answer to webslingin'
>>224232292>Superman is too attached to America to be successfulAnd Spidey isn't?
>>224232334They tried with Blue Beetle (Failed miserably though)
>>224232190The Batman fell off if you're comparing it to TDK and TDKR, but it was a huge success compared to Batman Begins and given how theaters were still recovering from covid at the time
>>224232334They have no answer to anything. Fucking Black Panther and Captain Marvel mog DC
>>224232334Unless...
>>224231823You get people to care about characters by making good movies.
>>224232374>Fucking Black PantherBlack Lightning
>>224232357He is but he’s so popular it doesn’t matter. China demanded the statue of liberty scene be cut out of No Way Home. Sony told them to fuck off and they didn’t even release the movie in China. Why it didn’t make over two billion like Brand New Day
>>224232378Such a comfy show. How do they translate whatever made Smallville great and turn it into a cinematic universe? Sexy dames, I assume
>>224232576Simple. The show just turned Clark Kent into Peter Parker. Bunch of high school teen angst bullshit. The “Ree I can’t tell MJ, I mean Lana my secret identity and now she hates me and I can’t be with her” cue Dawson Creek bullshit type teeny bop music
Make a trilogy based on the Arkham games.Tom Hopper with dyed black hair and a good American accent as Bruce Wayne/Batman.
>>224232378I read an article about the development of this show and a part of it was based on how they could women and teens to give a fuck about Superman since it was airing on the CW. They did market research tests that came back negative. So they re-marketed Superman as “a cute boy who’s tormented by his high school peers and has a deep, dark secret”. It still has the themes of American small town living and doing the right thing, but it was deliberately marketed as a coming of age drama.
>>224232663Awesome. Might rewatch Smallville lol
Nobody cares about Wonder Woman.People were psyopped into doing so for like 3 weeks in 2017, but that wore off.
>>224232292>implyingYou’re mother are getting fucked
>>224232663>The show just turned Clark Kent into Peter ParkerExactly. Just copy the 2 billion hero and you MIGHT make more dough than usual.
>>224232791>a cute boy who’s tormented by his high school peers and has a deep, dark secretSpider-Man?
>>224232824It was just novelty just like Aquaman. Why both sequels failed. Nobody gives a shit about either
>>224232824People like the idea of Wonder Woman, she's an empowering figure if you know nothing about her. The general public are just fine keeping on with knowing nothing about her.
>>224232859imo she works best when she's a totalitarian emotionless warmonger, but those aren't traits they can sell for female empowermenttwo of her greatest moments in the history of comics revolve around her unceremoniously snapping a villains neck in the middle of Batman and Superman argue about what they should do with the guy
>>224232791The article is bullshit. Smallville came form a pilot idea for young Bruce Wayne series. First episode be visits Smallville and meet a teenage Clark Kent. WB movie department wouldn’t allow the show because a Batman origin movie was in development aka Batman Begins. So went with the young Clark Kent in Smallville and redid it
>>224232858>It was just novelty just like AquamanAquaman was big FX heavy ocean adventure while Wonder Woman was a magical girl tragic wartime romance with handsome dude.
>>224231823DC will be sold to the Mouse. Disneyadults of /tv/ clapping and basedpogging at the inevitable deal.
>>224232886So people just want Xena?
>>224232824>Entire point of Wonder Woman story is that war is a natural state of mankind and there is no great evil you can just have a big explosion fight with to put an end to war>Anyways now that there are ten minutes left in the movie, turns out the British guy was actually a great evil you could have a big explosion fight with to stop warThought this shit was so dumb way back then
>>224232958I guess. I've never watched Xena, but I know it was on for years and years and did well in syndication, if we were to somehow translate that into ethereal concepts like success and "mindshare" I would be willing to believe Xena did "better" than live action Wonder Woman
>>224232897That's not a contradiction. That may be where the idea came from but it's about how it was marketed and sold to people.
>>224231977They made green arrow Batman-adjacent (more so than we already was in the comics) and they used him to kickstart the entire universe
>>224232132They like the teen titans though, particularly Raven and Starfire
>>224231823>letting normies dictate your taste
>>224234228Normies are money, dude.
>>224231977It was sincere the whole way through and produced, dare I say it, Kino AND Cringekino
>>224232824Nobody cares about female superheroes in general, them and Marvel think people give a shit about female capes outside of sex appeal
