Let's pretend for a moment this movie is a hit and the DCU launches to success, what comics should they take inspiration or adapt as movies? Gunn said Superman is taking elements from:
>All Star Superman
>Superman for All Seasons
>Whatever Happened to the >Man of Tomorrow?
Kingdom Come

So, what other comics should be used? Discuss what The Batman Part 2 can take as inspiration too. I'd like if they took some elements from Absolute Universe.

Clayface is currently planned as movie number 3, just lmao. Literally that would be like if Kraven the Hunter was movie number 3 of the MCU. Suddenly Batman v Superman being number 2 in a cinematic universe makes a whole lot of sense.

as 2nd Superman movie or maybe as JL Gunn is doing Superman vs The Elite but he is using The Authority, Reeves is doing Mr Freeze and Gunn wants to make Hush with Batman.

three villains i would like to see

the next villain in superman should be Manchester Black
i said it when this movie was first in incubation, black is a villain who says superman is outdated because he doesnt kill people, just like people who hate superman irl. it would be very meta.

or you know what might be interdesting mr .myxlplyx, just have superman go on some wild colorful psychedelic inter dimensional adventure

finally, maybe some sort of movie where he fights bizzaro superman and bizzaro is some retard who does the opposite of everything superman stands for cause he is an idiot

I actually think the lines work in OPs image, just did not translate to live action
I don't understand how they didn't change it before filming, the costume was otherwise perfect

Based, I wholeheartedly agree with you. Mr Mxyzptlk is a kino Superman villain that I would love to see in a future DCU film if the Gunnverse is successful. Another kino Superman villain that I would love to see in a future DCU film if the Gunnverse is successful is Toyman.

I haven't read or watched that much of Superman media but the second message Kal El's parents left for him is unexpectedly similar to Viltrumite ideology in the latest movie (just released early in my country). They commanded Kal El to rule over humanity instead of being it's savior and to make offspring as many as possible to preserve Krypton gene .

I thought it would be revealed to be a hoax made by Lex Luther but it turned out real . Some of the civilian reactions were kinda funny accusing Superman of having a secret harem to repopulate Kryptonian .

Overall I enjoyed the movie and I think this movie is really proud of being a comic movie. Like, there's a lot of absurd and campy things that only exist in comic media being displayed in the movie.Some people might say that there's too much stuff in this but I kinda like it. The world feels alive and populated unlike the typical phase 1 superhero movie.

They should hire me and I would direct a Batman The Brave and The Bold movie in the style of the cartoon that I grew up watching. The blue and grey suit is essential, and really stops the tonal dissonance that is evident in Batman & Robin. If Clooney had a blue and grey softer looking suit the movie would have been a lot more palatable. The secondary antagonist would be Kiteman, and then Killer Moth is the main antagonist. It would be played completely straight, with ZERO millenial/gen x irony poisoning, no reference to the suit being goofy or anything...like the 2003 the Cat in the Hat actually. A series of bank robberies would occur, involving Kiteman and a figure who keeps getting blurred in all footage. Batman and Alfred try to work out who this mysterious guy is, and at an early stage of the movie Killer Moth is mentioned as a potential suspect by Alfred, to which Batman says something like "These robberies occur at night Alfred, he'd be too busy oogling the street lamp outside" and they both laugh and move on. Then the big reveal will be it WAS Killer Moth, who has a new suit+gadgets and is now a competent fighter. Batman and KM fight for a bit, but KM catches him off guard and manages to escape. There's then a batmobile vs mothmobile car chase, and the final part of the movie would take place in the mothcave where Batman has to apprehend Killer Moth and Kiteman.
