Looking back, the DCEU/Snyderverse is one of the weirdest and funniest things to ever happen in pop culture history. Let's recap this hilarious mess.
>Man of Steel
A movie that was never intended to start a shared universe, pissing everyone off with its bleak tone and questionable narrative decisions like "stop, my invincible son" and having a depressed sociopathic Superman kill more people than he saves, including Zod. It's a hilarious mess that still has people mad to this day.
>Batman v Superman
One of the strangest big budget blockbusters ever made. An absolute fever dream; a strange self-indulgent arthouse flick masquerading as a big budget superhero blockbuster that focuses on the human response to Superman's existence. Produced hilarious memes like Jesse Eisenberg's ridiculous performance as Lex Luthor, Superman's weird Dr Manhattan arc, Batman acting like the Punisher, Granny's peach tea and of course MARTHA! One of the most divisive, talked about movies ever.
>Suicide Squad
Quite simply one of the worst movies ever made, bolstered only by Jared Leto's cringe inducingly hilarious turn as the Joker and the awful songs they commissioned for it, including Rick Ross' "Purple Lamborghini" which gave us a hilarious music video featuring even more Jared Leto Joker cringe. Ruined Halloween costumes forever and spawned the embarrassing failed "Release the Ayer cut" movement.
>Wonder Woman
A film that everyone loved at the time. Hailed as groundbreaking due to its depiction of a powerful female superhero and praised for its performances and poignant tone. Now loathed because its lead actor is a Zionist war criminal.

>Justice League
A commercial and critical disaster that was the result of the literal personification of Reddit stepping in to direct after Snyder's daughter ACK!-ed herself. An ugly eysore of a movie and a complete tonal mess that is only remembered for Henry Cavill's CGI upper lip. A failure so big that it forced WB to change the creative trajectory of the DCEU and completely remove Snyder and Cavill from the DCEU equation. Caused Ray Fisher to chimp out and get blacklisted by the studio.
>Aquaman
Released over a year after Justice League. An unironic comedy featuring CGI fish men riding giant seahorses and Jason Mamoa and Amber Heard walking through a desert while Pitbull's cover of Toto's "Africa" plays in the background. Somehow grossed over 1.3 billion dollars. The most successful DCEU movie.
>Shazam
A fun little movie and one of the better entries in the DCEU. Barely made any money due to being overshadowed by Marvel. Featured a body double with his head obscured stepping in for Henry Cavill's Superman in a post-credit scene.
>Birds of Prey
Feminist girlboss movie that barely anyone saw (largely due to COVID) and yet triggered an online culture war all the same.
>Wonder Woman 1984
An embarrassing disaster of a film that completely shat all over the previous one. Wonder Woman rapes a guy in it. Used as an example of Gal Gadot's acting inability.

>Zack Snyder's Justice League
The result of an extremely obnoxious years long online fan campaign that waged cyber war against those who denied its existence and forced WB to give Snyder 70 million dollars to make it. Dropped on HBO Max and Sky Cinema (in the UK/Europe). 4 hours long and claimed to be a restoration of Snyder's original vision, even though it features a bunch of new scenes like Swanwick being revealed as Martian Manhunter and a bunch of shitty post-credit stuff baiting sequels that never happened. Not a terrible film and fixed most of the problems of the original. Not good or successful enough to save the DCEU. Triggered the ongoing "Restore the Snyderverse" movement.
>The Suicide Squad
James Gunn's first foray into the DCEU. A soft reboot of the original and a much better film. However, it bombed at the post-Covid box office and laid the seeds for a complete universal reboot.
>Black Adam
A film that The Rock campaigned to make for years. Stuck in development hell for a long time until it finally entered production. The Rock hailed it as the film that would "change the hierarchy of the DC Universe forever" and pulled strings to bring Cavill back as Superman. Ended up being (unsurprisingly) a forgettable ugly mess of a movie that failed at the box office and was lampooned by critics as a massive piece of shit. The Rock continued to defend it after release and made up a bunch of lies claiming that it generated a profit before both he and Cavill were fired (again for Cavill).
>Shazam! Fury of the Gods
Forgettable sequel that absolutely no one saw or cared about. Its failure caused Zachary Levi to become a right-wing schizo.

>The Flash
Stuck in development hell for years. Originally intended to be a part of the original DCEU slate before the failure of Justice League (2017) forced WB to change its structure. Numerous directors were hired and then fired by WB. Eventually entered production under Andy Muschetti. Intended to completely reboot the DCEU through a story inspired by Flashpoint. A bunch of famous shills, including Tom Cruise, praised it as one of the greatest superhero films ever. Marred by pre-release controversy surrounding Ezra Miller assaulting people and kidnapping an autistic girl from her family. Opened to complete failure at the box office and mediocre reviews. Featured a tired old Michael Keaton becoming the real-life version of his character from Birdman and the Flash rescuing a bunch of flying CGI babies. It's story wasn't an adaptation of Flashpoint but just some shitty random bullshit and it's weird meta ending didn't reboot the DCEU in any way. Instead, it simply confused matters even further with George Clooney showing up as Batman for some reason. What the fuck was this movie!?
>Blue Beetle
No one saw this.
>Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom
The final entry in the DCEU. A sad wet fart of a movie. Very clear that no one wanted to be involved in this. Not James Wan, not Jason Mamoa, not Amber Heard (whose presence in it was surrounded by controversy due to the Depp trial). Completely forgettable schlock that barely generated a profit at the box office despite being a Christmas season release. Final scene is Patrick Wilson eating a cockroach burger. A fitting end to the DCEU.

So there we have it. The DCEU (2013-2023). 10 years of hilarious bullshit. What a fucking ride it was. I can't even say I hated it. I'm kinda glad it happened. It generated a bunch of fond memories, funny memes, hilarious moments, heated discussions and earned its place in the annals of pop culture history. What are your thoughts about this mess? Let's discuss!

Didn’t happen
>mediocre reviews
Mixed to positive reviews, the negative ones almost all cited the above fake news as their “reason” they didn’t recommend the movie. The Flash’s audience score is almost the same as Superman’s critic score.

Anyone not pointing this out in relation to the discussion of this movie is a shill for the tabloids or freemasonic producers

A cinematic masterpiece.

>pissing everyone off with its bleak tone
Who cares? The tone is fine and not that bleak. It just takes itself seriously. It isn’t made for babies garbage goyslop like Marvel or Gunnshit.

>questionable narrative decisions like “stop, my invincible son"
Filtered. It’s literally explained in the movie that the stupid humans aren’t ready for Superman and fucked up shit will happen if his identity is revealed, which we eventually see in BvS.

>depressed sociopathic Superman kill more people than he saves, including Zod
Who gives a fuck? No one is perfect. Not even Superman. This actually makes him more human and relatable. Superman has his own flaws and limits and cannot save everyone. It’s realistic and beautifully tragic. There is nothing more beautiful and more pure than sorrow and pain.

In the grand scheme of things, all that matters is the Snyder Trilogy. The fact it's complete is incredible. Man of Steel and BvS are masterpieces. Zack's Justice League is incredible although not at the same level as the first two.

Here's my hot take. It all went exactly as it should have. I love Superman. Has been and always will be my favorite. In the context of the trilogy it's perfect. BUT, his original vision going forward didn't sit well with me. You just killed him and he had a triumphant return, only for you to make him corrupted and evil? Fuck you. We just had a movie where he wasn't in 80% of it and now we have another full film where he isn't himself. Fuck you.

I'm glad Snyder lost control exactly when he did and we got a completed masterpiece of a trilogy.

The best next step should have been the Batfleck Deathstroke film and another solo Cavill flick. That's all we needed to succeed going forward.

I will never see Gunn's hot garbage. I can't even look at it with all the GoPro shots. That's not filmmaking.

It's not. He never got to finish his story, that's what sucks. I get that it wasn't everyone's cup of coffee but to not even tell it all the way is lousy. I'm sure even his haters would've been curious what will happen next, but it was abruptly ended after the successful ZSJL movement.

It's complete for me. If it was up to me, all the unfulfilled sequel bait would be removed from Zack Snyder's Justice League. I'm okay with Darkseid being in it. But Leto Knightmare and the flash forwards to sequels shouldn't be there. It's a better film without it.

I would have had Zack's Justice League end with the shirt rip revealing the red and blue. Signifying Superman is restored in all his glory.

It honestly might be the most prolonged period of complete crackhead-tier mismanagement any major media company has ever had. They had a license to print money, thought "but what if we could make even MORE money" and unironically ran the company into the ground trying to improve on good.

The conversation always descends into memes but the facts are that the Snyder films were profitable and everything they did after him was one catasrophe after another. And I think Snyder probably wasn't the right guy to be in charge of the entire thing and maybe needed a tard wrangler to talk him down from some of his dumber ideas but, fuck, the people who stepped in after him were like saboteurs. They were upset that BVS "only" made $900 mil and by the end they were releasing turds that couldn't even gross $100 mil domestically.

So the DCEU was getting outgrossed by the MCU. So fucking what. DC has been the comic book silver medalist since like 1965 or whatever. It still had fans, it still sold, it still made money. Blowing it all up because it's first place or nothing was insane. This is like Adidas getting butthurt that Nike outsold them one year, firing everyone, discontinuing their most popular shoes and letting the unpaid interns design some garish replacements that sold 1/10 the volume of the originals. It was corporate suicide

Knightmare works as Batman's paranoia fuel. The Flash saying "Lois Lane is the key" works because she is who calms him down when Superman wakes up aggro. I think it only falls apart in Zack Snyder's Justice League.

I'm probably just coping though because I think the Knightmare dream is one of the coolest Batman scenes of all time.

This is a false narrative. Defenders of the film tried to blame COVID worries, despite most people in the western world being practically unaware of it until directly before stay at home orders were put in place. You also had Sonic the Hedgehog making a respectable 320 million vs Birds of Prey's 200 despite Sonic launching a week later, thus only having a a single month in theaters before they were shut down.
You also missed the best part of BoP's flopping: After the opening weekend, they re-titled the movie for theater websites and box office marquees to have Harley Quinn's name in it.

Keaton was by far the best part of the movie. Hell, he's the only competent character in the film.
Also, you missed Peacemaker in this retrospective, a show with the dubious honor of being in two different cinematic universes between seasons.

I haven't seen that yet. It doesn't get good ratings but I've heard good word-of-mouth about it. I'll have to put it on sometime just to see what I think, I do tend to like fantasy B-movies more than most people. Have you seen it? If so, did you like it?

Not him, but I thought the movie was very forgettable. The scenes that played with Momoa and Wilson's dynamic were fun, but that's it.
I also saw it the day I got fired from my job to take my mind off things, so I guess that could've influenced my mood.

Yeah, I saw it at the cinema when it came out. It's fun at points but also kinda depressing in the sense that, as OP mentioned, everyone involved just seems disinterested and bored. It just doesn't have the lively atmosphere and soul of the first film. Also, the general direction is worse and nowhere near as kinetic as the first film.

Really? That's disappointing, does it have any of the visuals or feeling of adventure from the first one?

I enjoy a lot of shlocky fantasy movies like Beastmaster or Krull, but they have to have a fun fantasy world to explore. If Aquaman 2 is just murky and depressing, it might not be worth it.

being completely fair to superman, aquaman edged out most of DC by virtue of the chinese market -- which we know for a fact pays out multiples less than domestic. i think despite the worldwide total being more than 300m over wonder woman, aquaman was reported as only earning wb around 20m or so more, though i forget the specific figures. they're never catching that lightning in a bottle again. i hope superman's subpar performance doesn't make them scramble again.

Yeah, Creature Commandos makes explicit references to the events of TSS.
Gunn's stance is that the movie itself isn't part of the universe, but extremely similar events happened.
So basically, take the movie and cut out Harley and any character who died that they might want to use in the future, and you've got the DCU version of the events.
I suppose they might explain this a little better in-universe since season two of Peacemaker is going to have Flag Sr. hunting down Peacemaker for killing his son.

Also, Walter Hamada's original stupid idea was to have Affleck's Batman get replaced by a retired Keaton Batman training Batgirl and Superman to have been killed off as a baby and replaced by Supergirl.
Eventually, they did decide to have Affleck's Bamtna just be lost in the multiverse so they could do Crisis on Infinite Earths

Money, dingus. He was just paid 6-7 figures for filming the biggest movie of his career as that stuff was going on.
Most of them admitted as much, read the info sheet. It was either money or sex or both in all of those situations.
The media doesn’t need an excuse to report on that stuff, and you’ll notice once it became obvious it was a smear campaign the press promptly stopped talking about it.

They don’t get it. Ezra was just another Dave Chappelle or Lindsay Lohan to the the gossip papers. Even if it’s pure drivel or immoral reporting they just say "Well he's in the game so he knows the rules" and smile when the headlines make them money. Human beings are disposable to the media.

Saw this one pretty late but mostly it was nice to see a Superman movie released in my lifetime that wasn't utter garbage. I was a kid when Superman Returns came out and I swear I had to watch it three times or more just to convince myself it was real because I couldn't believe how unenjoyable it was. Anyway, MoS was decent but it felt like the climax was a whole quarter of the runtime so it kinda soured on me by the end.
>Batman v Superman
I had my friend read the plot synopsis for MoS to me while I drove us to the theater so we wouldn't be going in blind and yet I still felt like I had zero context for anything that was happening. Thankfully my friend was a comic nerd so she was able to at least explain a handful of character details in my ear while we were watching. That said, I loved every chaotic second of it whether I understood what was happening or not. I think OP got the summary of this one right. Drab tone aside, the zany energy just made the movie a wild experience few superhero movies can match and I left the theater saying I would have happily watched another half hour of it, which to my surprise was something that was already on the way. If I could change anything I would have spent less time trying to make it a Justice League prequel. Wonder Woman's appearance being advertised ahead of release felt like it killed what was supposed to be a surprise, so I think she should have only appeared as Diana in this one and saved her full reveal for the solo movie.

I expected this one to be so much worse than it was and I think it would have been more memorable if it actually was worse. Don't get me wrong, it was a bad movie, but not the kind that wraps back around into being fun for that reason which I was kind of banking on. Biggest problem it created for the franchise is that despite being something of a side movie, the threat is once again total world domination. It's hard to get that invested in the struggles against ultra powerful villains when every single bad guy in this universe seems to be showing up with the same threats. The threads making fun of this movie's marketing were some of my favorite on this board and the ridiculous soundtrack grew on me to the point that I would sometimes put it on while driving people around in college.

I thought it was cool. We hadn't had a period superhero movie since Captain America so that helped it stand out among the crowd. I do think its funny how even normies seem to have switched up on this one more recently because of Gal Gadot as if her IDF past wasn't openly used to prop her up as a perfect fit for the character back when she was cast.
>Justice League
I liked it a lot when it came out, but that could have just been cope from how long I had been waiting for a Justice League movie. My biggest issue at the time was that it was obvious which scenes had been written by Whedon and while his writing doesn't always bother me, in this one it clashed hard against the scenes Snyder directed. Other problem is what I addressed with SS: Steppenwolf just didn't seem like such an intimidating major event-level threat when he wasn't really doing anything we hadn't already seen Zod or Aries or Enchantress already try.

>Aquaman
I think on a technical level this is the movie that worked the best in the franchise. We got a peek at what would happen in JL, but it only barely addresses the rest of the series and just lets itself be a self-contained adventure. I would have liked a bit more closure with Black Manta instead of leaving him as sequel bait, but the rest of the story feels nice and complete and there was a good balance between the story and the action.
>Birds of Prey
Unlike Aquaman, I think this movie trying to isolate itself from the greater series did it a bit of a disservice. Squad Harley became a genuine pop culture icon, so ripping her away from her big sequel setup cliffhanger without any explanation was a weird way to start what might as well have been her solo movie. What worked was the smaller scale storyline that let the characters focus on their own personal stories instead of hanging a global threat over their heads. What didn't work is that they didn't really give the characters much of a personal story to develop. Other than that, it was fine for what it was and the feminist propaganda criticism got blown out of proportion by people who didn't see it. I've seen movies with way more divisive and straight up harmful messages pointed towards purposely driving up distrust between the sexes than this one, but internet warriors don't talk about those because there aren't any superheroes in them.

I don't know if this is something that producers do, but if not, there should be a job position in Hollywood where the person's sole responsibilities are to veto any and all creative decisions that they don't like and offer feedback until they're satisfied. I should have that job. I could have saved the sneederverse. Just let me say "nope, you can't do that" and "maybe try something like this instead" and boom, the whole fucking thing is saved.

>Zack Snyder's Justice League
I was excited for this to get a legitimate release not only because I liked BvS, but because I like when studios are willing to back up the people who do the hard work for them. I borrowed my friend's HBO to watch it when it came out, fell asleep halfway through, and never went back to finish it. There was nothing I particularly hated, but it wasn't such a transformative experience over the Whedon cut that I felt like I needed to see the rest of it. Seeing the individual stories for the new characters get more focus was neat, but it's the kind of thing they'd need solo movies for to make really engaging. Also I know Snyder said he didn't watch the theatrical version and didn't make any changes based on it, but there were some things that made me doubt that. Particularly using the Nick Cave needle drop for Aquaman felt super out of place when the theatrical cut used Icky Thump, which Snyder himself picked out to accompany the movie's Comic Con preview. I'll probably watch the rest one day, but it's already been four years so who knows when that will be...
>The Suicide Squad
It's Suicide Squad by James Gunn. That's it, that's all there is to say. The movie you picture in your head when you read that sentence is exactly the movie they released. Harley got her old colors back, so that was nice.
>The Flash
The second half of this movie was on the TV while I was hanging out with my brother and it just looked like any other multiverse superhero movie. I saw one meta interpretation that the finale, where Barry destroys himself trying in vain to change destiny and set everything right instead of just giving up on a world fated to die, is the perfect ending for a series by a studio that did just that. It's already been pointed out that while reviews were bad, these movies were making good money for years, yet Warner Bros had to pull at every thread trying to make it a cultural juggernaut that it was never going to be. Kino.

He knew what he was doing. Literally inciting his fanboys to be as annoying as possible about rebooting the Snyderverse fully. He got his chance, his one in a million chance, to finish off a project he probably shouldn't have been able to in the first place, and he does that with it. It's insulting. I could never respect the guy even if his movies were good, which they aren't.

>Man of Steel
This movie is fascinating because at the time it was just a normal action flick but today in the context of modern “cinema” and capeshit it’s fantastic. Couldn’t care less about Pa’s death or the neck snap.
>Batman v Superman
My personal favorite superhero movie. It was able to scale from street level fights to world ending threats and had a pure DC atmosphere to it. I personally believe this is Snyder’s magnum opus and he paid the price for it by sacrificing his career.
>Suicide Squad
I think this fits into the so bad it’s good category. While not technically good there’s a lot of colorful characters and it doesn’t really waste your time. I doubt the Ayer cut would have made it any better. Wish to have seen more Joker.
>Wonder Woman
A generally good film with a contradictory third act. While they should’ve stuck with the original ending (there being no Ares and mankind is just naturally violent and evil, which explains why Diana lay dormant for 100 years) I can see how execs thought Diana’s dissatisfaction could project onto the audience and work against the film’s reception and how the ending needed an oomph.
>Justice League (both versions)
This should have been the best DCEU film by far with the same level of ambition as BvS, even more so in fact. Unfortunately it was constructed as a head bowed apology rather than a prideful Justice League endeavor. The lack of a 7th member is also jarring. While there’s significantly worse DCEU movies this one however is probably the biggest disappointment. There was also some insane fuckery going on behind the scenes like that 2 hour mandate.

It’s almost like James Cameron made a capeshit, almost. It knew exactly what it wanted to be and succeeded. Provided a straightforward narrative with a charismatic actor and an interesting setting. And yet it makes one think if Aquaman, who’s supposed to be one of the lame JL members, can make a billion what kind of potential did the other members have?
>Shazam
A solid inoffensive flick. With a few adjustments (and a different release) it could have become a Christmas classic. But I don’t think Zachary Levi was the right choice for adult Billy. Ironically David Corenswet would’ve been great.
>The Suicide Squad
Suicide Squad 2016 but built properly from the ground up this time, a comedy from conception. IMO this is Gunn’s best capeshit alongside the original gotg. He’s able to mess around with whatever niche characters he wants while being able to do edgy adult humor he couldn’t exercise in the mcu. It’s also not visual dogshit. However when peacemaker came out that’s when I started to notice and get real tired of his formula.

>The result of an extremely obnoxious years long online fan campaign that waged cyber war against those who denied its existence and forced WB to give Snyder 70 million dollars to make it. Dropped on HBO Max and Sky Cinema (in the UK/Europe). 4 hours long and claimed to be a restoration of Snyder's original vision, even though it features a bunch of new scenes like Swanwick being revealed as Martian Manhunter and a bunch of shitty post-credit stuff baiting sequels that never happened. Not a terrible film and fixed most of the problems of the original. Not good or successful enough to save the DCEU. Triggered the ongoing "Restore the Snyderverse" movement.
That's bs, the movement is not the reason this got released, the previous WB CEO, I forgot his name, it was a young guy, did this because hbomax needed content. He was the idiot who came up with release on same day, both theaters and hbomax during the pandemic that cost WB more money long term.

I truly think Snyder lost all his juice after BvS or during JL. AoTD and RM were certainly something. But original stories were never his thing anyway. He needs to go back to comic book adaptations.

This is the most fascinating thing to me as MoS was so clearly intended to be standalone. Would they have tried to force it to change to fit into continuity with GL? I'm not really sure how you'd do that when both are stories about the world learning aliens are real.

Just watched it a bit of a mess but no worse than a lot of Marvel films.

Tobey Emmerich really fuckin hated Cavill and the rest of the JL cast. He approached Gunn about making a new Superman movie as far back as 2018/2019. Cavill was still under contract for more another appearance however and was holding out for a complete film. Hamada I think was just a massive dimwit pushover.

I didn't even care if it was Cavill or not. In fact, it would have been better if it wasn't instead of dicking around with this "will they won't they" shit that they were doing from 2016-2022.
Christopher McQuaurrie, off fucking Mission Impossible Fallout, comes to them personally with him script and interest in doing a Superman-Green Lantern team up movie, with Green Lantern likely being played by Tom Cruise, and they fucking say no.

This was during the time when they thought Superman wasn't relevant enough and they wanted to figure out a way to make him more relevant for modern times, which is when they were considering Michael B Jordan to replace Cavill.

Happy to say I only saw one DCEU film in the theater, MoS, but my family brought me. After that I avoided it like the plague. It was the whole "maybe you shouldn't save everyone" speech that Johnathan Kent gave, I knew that no one there knew what the fuck they were doing.
I ALMOST saw The Flash, just because it looked so weird, but I'm glad I didn't. I made the same mistake with Superman (2025), I remember now not to give them money for this slop just because it's off-kilter. It can be both weird and soulless.

This being bad baffles me and makes me sad, Shazam seemed a relatively sober take on super heroes, much more subdued, aware of the shortcomings and failing of the genre, it didn't deconstruct or reinvent but it didn't feel arrogant, I had good hopes for the sequel then.

I'd say it's far off Cavill's because his entire temperament is far more relaxed than Cavill's and he actually talks a lot - Cavill's Superman was extremely laconic. Like never mind Corenswet's very Superman-like speech to Lex about how he's human and it's his greatest strength, I cannot recall Cavill Superman even having a bit of continous dialogue in length that match's Affleck's little speech to Alfred about how Superman has the power to kill all of them and if 1% chance he's bad = they must take it as an absolute certainty. I will say this for BvS, Batman and Alfred scenes were very good. They both has real chemistry.

Huh? He raged a few times. Like that's one of the things I found so odd about him, not distant and muted he was sometimes over things that should provoke an emotional reaction contrasting with his very emotional ones. Smallville only became a battleground because Superman raged tackled him there and he was screaming WHERE IS SHE!??!!? at Lex

Bits and pieces of Snyderverse were great. Bits and pieces were absolutely horse shit. His vision with a competent writing team would have been something special. McQuarrie’s take would have been interesting as well. This whole thread is seething Gunntard cope (even the writing style just wreaks of soft faced, close set eyes, fat neck with rectangular glasses effeminate faggotry).

I always heard some true believers claim Snyder's work was deep, or there was a 2deep4u aspect that the masses didn't get, and to this day I have no idea what the fuck he was going for other than the claimed King Arthur inspiration which is just okay sure utilizing a different storytelling structure gives us what? Gunn in his DC films films critiqued the US government in TSS, and denounced Israel in Superman, while still services the characters and having the films work independent of that subtext. I just have never understood the claimed depth I am apparently missing in Snyder's work, BvS in particular.

Most analysts agree that WB understands they need to build trust in the DC brand again, and as long as Superman doesn't lose money AND it seems like people generally like the movie, they're going to move forward with the Gunnverse

Superman's soft overseas pull is going to prevent it from being a smash hit but it's playing well domestically. It will probably get a sequel, and the next few DC movies are small projects that don't need to gross $500m just to break even

Audience engagement and word of mouth can be determined by week to week holds. Batman v. Superman had a great opening weekend but dropped like a stone in its second weekend. Sinners had a decent opening weekend but dropped only like 4% in its second because everyone told their friends to go see it.

Unironically yes, because they can outsmart Superman and ultimately cause bigger casualties with him in their arsenal.
Also, do everyone really deserve to be saved? Clark should have adopted as National Geographic approach when it comes to humans, and live his life in peace. Of course, the upcoming events would eventually force Clark Kent to come out of his supercloset, but assuming nothing supernatural happens, Clark's best approach to life is "only superlook but not supertouch"

>Blue Beetle
>No one saw this.

Gunn still plans to fold Blue Beetle and at least part of the movie into his new DCU. Which I guess is more than can be said about Shazam.

>>The Flash

There's more
The intent of The Flash was to reboot the DCEU, so that Michael Keaton would replace Ben Affleck, and Superman would get replaced by Supergirl, so the original ending was Flash finding out that the Snyderverse still kept Keaton and Sasha Calle around. Keaton would generally only do cameos in other films because Batgirl would be the primary Bat character in the rebooted DCEU. The Batgirl movie was supposed to set that up.

Then Zaslav took over and shelved Batgirl for a tax write-off. There was a brief window in between Zaslav taking over (and firing most of the major people running WB before he came on board) and James Gunn and Peter Safran getting chosen to take control of DC films, and during that time producers Michael De Luca and Pam Abdy wanted to change the ending of The Flash to be the same as the original but also include Henry Cavill as Superman.

After Black Adam didn't do as well as WB wanted it, Gunn/Safran took over control of DC films, and the old plans for the DCEU were thrown out, Gunn changed the ending to have Clooney at the end instead.

I still don't know if all those CGI cameos were originally in the plans or not.

It wasn't just Coates, it was under JJ Abrams. I never heard that they were going to have an Asian Lois though, is there proof of that?

But yeah in 2019 before Rise of Skywalker was released, WB signed a deal with JJ Abrams that included various projects like a sci-fi show he was supposed to do, the Black Superman movie, and a bunch of Justice League Dark projects (Madame X and Constantine were in the planning/casting stages before they got the plug pulled)

Oh shit, I forgot

Okay so the original intent for that was they had Keaton doing the cameo at first, because Aquaman 2 was going to take place after The Flash.

Then after production troubles and I THINK when De Luca and Abdy were willing to bring Cavill and Affleck back, they filmed Affleck doing the cameo instead, saying that Aquaman 2 takes place before Flash.

But then after Gunn took over they dropped the Bruce Wayne cameo entirely.

Given that Superman is a cultural icon with basically the same characteristics for 99% of his existence in mainstream form, yes, it's FINE for audience members to not at all like the Snyder interpretation.

Superman Returns came out before MoS, and in the comics we went through the most grindark period in comics ever made before where Superman was characterized as a pussy that let other heroes kill villains, mind rape Batman, and so on all because he didn't want to wreck the boat and ended in tons of rape, death, and destruction which Superman took part in. Before that we had the DCAU where Superman was super serious and prone to anger where most of the big plots were a result of Superman being mind raped by Darkseid into destroying Earth.

But Snyder Superman did get weighed down by people thinking he killed those men in Africa, dubious of his existence being a good thing, etc. Corenswet Superman got weighed down by people think he's an alien sleeper agent sent here to conquer and harm people. That's actually an instant of an equivalence between the two versions lol

one of these is actually respectful to the source material and the proper questions to ask regarding the concept
the other is just juvenile humor that is very out of place and treats a well-regarded character like a joke

I actually think that the idea of Superman having a secret harem of female human was a cool concept to explore.

i'm sure you do since you're terminally online and don't go outside unless mandated by federal law (aka your father)
what i find hilarious is that the whole "superman is an immigrant story" defense flies in the face of the film's logic, since most immigrants come to other countries and then start raping
in other words the film is pro rapefugee and i simply won't have it

its not a perfect film, its a near 10/10 for capeshit.

With a film with that scale and destruction its hard to fully deal with consequences.

At least they tried in BvS, in the new Superman apparently not a single civilian died when the portal split reality and a whole city in half

DC going for le gritty realism after the Nolan era was a mistake.
Marvel managed to deliver a version of Captain America who was cool and stoic and could fight waves of goons by himself and lift Thor's Hammer. But they didn't sacrifice his friendly nature or optimism, even when the aesthetic became darker. I would dare say that Chris Evans Cap was like Christopher Reeve Superman for a generation. DC missed out on that with Henry Cavill being so divisive, and are desperately trying to course correct.

While these stemmed from bad decisions from WB, I will say this:

Birds of Prey was released about a month before the COVID lockdowns happened. It still likely would've flopped without COVID, though, WW84 and The Suicide Squad came out around the time of the COVID stuff and the idiotic Studio Streaming Wars where every studio was convinced they can do their own streamer without realizing how much it undercut things
When Black Adam didn't do as well as WB wanted they announced Gunn and Safran taking over DC and Gunn announced a reboot, which likely affected the films that came after because the audience realized they were in no hurry to see the films that came after. Aquaman 2 somehow did ok though.

Yeah, it is kind of weird the movie being this pro-immigrant stuff and, maybe, anti-Trump, to the point of Gunn even using that as a marketing tactic but then in the movie itself Superman, the big immigrant, was sent to Earth by his parents to conquer and rape. So... i don't know where they are going with that.

if they didn't rush justice league crap and had a proper Batfleck movie that explains why he kills several non-superpowered goons casually in BvS, they would have saved the snyderverse

cavill wasn't divisive at all
it was the lacking attention span of the general audience that couldn't understand a comic book film not made by nolan could be dark and mature while still holding to its roots
really i think it was casting jesse eisenberg as lex luthor that distracted people from it

Their problems started when they tried to force Man of Steel as their first movie in a cinematic universe when it was never intended to be that way. It was just a movie Nolan and Goyer thought up while making TDKR. So then their next logical step is introduce Batman, but since Marvel was already well into their universe they felt the need to catch up so start introducing the entire Justice League in this Superman sequel. Just bad decision after bad decision once after MoS. If they were smart they would have paid Nolan infinite money to oversee their cinematic universe and let him make decisions.

can you stop spreading this lie? i already told op that green lantern was meant to be the start of the dceu but when it failed they tried again with mos. if mos wasn't meant to be the start of a cinematic universe the wayne satellite easter egg wouldn't have been there in plain sight.

That shit was so hilarious, specially when the Ray Fisher chimping caused everyone to go after WB and one black writer for the syfy show accused Geoff Johns of being racist because he didn't want to hire a black actor to play Superman's grandpa.

I'm bringing this up because Johns defense was that the show was supposed to be a prequel to MoS, and so they needed an actor that looked like Cavill, but Johns was the fucker that ruined any chance of there being a prequel movie tied to MoS, or a prequel show tied to MoS as well. He hijacked that show and stripped it from anything that could relate it to MoS.

It's barely even noticeable and lasts all of 2 seconds. There's no other references to anything. MoS was just a pet project of David Goyer's with Nolan's backing. It was never intended to be the start of anything and I challenge you to find me direct quotes from either of them proving otherwise, not a 2 second easter egg. There's easter eggs in tons of movies that never amount to anything. They decided to use it as a starting point after the fact when they canceled the real MoS sequel and turned it into a Batman movie with a bunch of Justice League nonsense that kills the pacing.

Stabler's character, the general that anhero himself, was supposed to also be an easter egg. He's named after a obscure as fuck DC character known as The Guardian, named Jim Harper, who in the comics was police officer in Metropolis' Suicide Slum, the shittiest part of the town.
In the movie he is, of course, a member of the United States Air Force, but even that he goes by the call sign "Guardian".

i already told you idiot, after green lantern's failure the plan was to launch with mos because they had nothing else going at the time
it's already common knowledge that zack was working on bvs before mos even released

I am glad the whole DC=realistic is fucking dead in the water. No, DC characters should not be fucking realistic. Their whole appeal is being larger than life characters. Nolan has done a lot of damage with his Batman movies. Gotham should be a gothic urban nightmare, not Chicago.

The Rock continued to defend it after release and made up a bunch of lies claiming that it generated a profit before both he and Cavill were fired (again for Cavill).

The Hamada era is fucking insane to think about because they were going in multiple directions

They planned to do a post-Snyder DCEU where they intended to replace Affleck with Michael Keaton and Cavill with Sasha Calle, also with the intent of Keaton playing Batman as a mentor cameo role while Batgirl is the primary Bat-character of the DCEU. Aquaman, Wonder Woman, and Flash would be carried over from the Snyderverse

Then had Matt Reeves doing his own thing with The Batman, which Hamada claimed was not on the same Earth as DCEU and was on "Earth 2" in articles.

Then there was the deal with JJ Abrams where he was going to do a Black Superman movie with Coates and also develop Justice League Dark stuff (Constantine and Madame Xanadu were already in the works for HBO MAX TV, Zatanna was rumored for a film)

They supposedly had a deal with Michael B Jordan to do a Val Zod project

The Arrowverse was still going on and for inexplicable reasons even though JJ Abrams didn't even release Constantine yet, WB barred the Arrowverse from using their Constantine because of the WB embargo

There was going to be a Green Lantern TV show that didn't have anything to do with the Arrowverse or DCEU supposedly, and would've just spotlighted various Green Lanterns in different decades that DCEU wasn't using

They had the Pennyworth TV show which was basically about Young Alfred in a world setting up V For Vendetta

They agreed to the Black Adam project with The Rock

Can you imagine what would've happened if COVID never happened? Would they have crashed and burned fast the same way as IRL or would it have been a slower burn where flops just ended up underperformers?

Snyderverse is gritty, which means that Supes is not the happy go lucky retard who wears his underwear over his pants and saves people with no questions asked. It makes more sense to be realistic.
>Saar
Not a jeet. Snyderverse was made for white people first and foremost. Gunn's Superman is all about immigrants and brown people, but you couldn't figure it out because you are retarded
