If we got a new Justice League my ideal line up would be...
> Superman (cavill) > Batman (affleck) > Wonder Woman > Aquaman > Mera (if they recast with someone still hyper sexy who keeps the cleavage, ideally Deborah Ann Woll) > Doctor Fate >> Mary Marvel OR Darla
Take some risks and make a Damage film because people have been wanting a Hulk film that Marvel is never going to make. Make him the crossover antagonist that fights the military in his origin film, then the Suicide Squad in the next film (who lose) then the Justice League in the last as he gets folded in as a new Leaguer.
>Black Adam
I have no faith in this, aside from Winkler and Brosnan the casting is shit, the costume design is garbage, the story sounds like a pale imitation of Black Reign, it generally looks fairly generic, and it’s clearly just a vanity project of the rocks
>Shazam 2
This one I’m hyped for it looks fun and despite not having Mr. Mind in it, which is an incredibly dumb decision, the bad guys sound interesting enough on their own… having Gal appear as WW in it sounds like a bad decision though
>Aquaman 2
Much like Shazam 2 the movie sounds like a fun romp hopefully they underplay Herd the Turd
>The Flash
The movie just sounds utterly terrible and the star is a fricking Pedophile
>the costume design is garbage,
Not for Fate or Hawkman. Adam's suit isn't as good as the new Shazam family suits but absolutely is better than the 1st films suits.
Are you high? Fates helmet is fricking trash and he just looks like someone poured molten gold on him not to mention the costume looks like a shitty version of his post infinite crisis costume and Hawkman just looks awful in red the wings on the helmet just look way to much not mention the shitty tank top, Cyclone looks nothing like her comic counterpart (not talking about race), Comic Cyclone has a costume that was inspired by her aunts costume and Wicked so it’s very theatrical. The movie costume just looks like badly made armor. Smasher for some reason has Deadpool eyes and looks weird with sleeves. Also no Adams suit looks like they bought a shirt of a rack printed his insignia on and then threw it in the wash multiple times
>and he just looks like someone poured molten gold
This is a fricking good thing. It looks like actual fricking glossy metal instead of plastic garbage.
>Hopes & Ideas
For the DCEU to be quietly cancelled, to the extent they stop trying to chase the shared universe train they’re too late to get going and just focus on individual good quality films. That is to say, none of the ones currently being presented. >Biggest Concerns?
Amber Heard making a comeback. >Rate/Rank
While overrated, Joker is head and shoulders above literally everything else. Man of Steel gets credit for having a few interesting ideas, though.
That's because Joker is the most grounded one of them all and wasn't exactly a Joker film to begin with. It barely counts as a capefilm barring the names used. Man of Steel is legitimately my favourite cape film that has come out of all of this.
>Wally to replace Barry
If the DCEU didn’t seem to be imploding so quickly, I’d say it might be more likely than you think after all the shit Ezra pulled. But seriously-we haven’t even gotten a Flash movie and they’re already wanting to reboot. Your best hope is for WB to implode, then someone else come pick up the pieces. >redhead
Damn, Wally’s definitely getting blackwashed huh
Iris is already black and I can’t see them wanting to go through the effort of explaining how she has a ginger nephew unless it’s a standalone film or another universe.
Now that I remember, I had the idea that it’d be cool to do a live action Teen Titans film with the original members (Robin, Wally, Donna, Speedy, Aqualad) and then maybe a sequel introducing the mainstream members.

These are two ideas I honestly wish they would go for

Replacing shitty Ezra Barry with a Wally only serves to "validate" Barry. I say go full reboot and start over
I look at all the reboots the comics made just making shit more moronic over the years until we end up with Perpetua and Batkek and now Pariah/the Great Darkness trying to destroy the multiverse by having Slade beat up the Teen Titans (!?) and I think at this point a hard reboot what just confuse and frustrate everyone more. Do a soft reboot instead. Don’t waste everyone’s time with Flashpoint, NOBODY likes Flashpoint, just quietly go “hey we’re doing this Superman movie about Superman that focuses on Superman’s powers and character development, you don’t need to watch Man of Steel for it” like how The Batman doesn’t need you to know about BvS or Suicide Squad 2 can be watched without knowing anything about 1.
It’s like a zit. The less you pick at it, the less people remember you fricked up.

Yeah, I don’t think WB has the inspiration to go for that after looking at how big an impact 2003 Teen Titans/the shitty successor show to it had on their target audience.
Kek, as early as New Earth it was an infinite multiverse. The most stupid thing about the Death Metal crap is that shit doesn’t even materially affect any of the stories. It has as much substance and impact on the setting as a Ric Flair WOOOOOO

And that’s both dumb, and unwarrantedly self-congratulatory.
Hopes: Zaslav purges the writing staff of anyone who mentions politics on the job and focuses on hiring people who treat writing as a craft.
Ideas: Make a cool Superman movie, you need something recognizable where you can put a regular, not anti-hero edgy, man on screen.
Concerns: Zaslav will not purge enough of the politically focused, writing craft lacking, members of staff
Hopes that won't happen: New and interesting heroes, teen titans, anything related to Batman because it's too soon.
>Make a cool Superman movie, you need something recognizable where you can put a regular, not anti-hero edgy, man on screen.
Include this one in hopes that won’t happen. Not saying it’s impossible because, let’s be honest, that is basically what One Punch Man is. But it’s impossible with the kind of writers WB is working with who love “hot take” shit like Suicide Squad more than the idea a flying brick can actually be a decent bloke, even if you purge the culture war gang. It’s not the character that makes it impossible at this point, it’s the calibre of people writing him.

There's a reason one of my hopes is 'literally everyone in the writing staff is gone, and Zaslav hires people who have good craft'.
No matter how good or bad of an idea you put out there...if the writer's bad, it's fricked.

You can only hope for so much to happen, anon. Good writers don’t magically come out of nowhere, and where they are present people often don’t make the best use of them they could. I think if there were more people able and willing to write good Superman movie treatments, we’d have seen a better Superman movie by now. As it stands, I think there’s more of a chance to see a movie about Darkseid’s rise to power than there is about Superman right now simply because even outside of WB western writers seem to find it easier to write Darkseid than Superman.

Here's the thing, though.
It's not that good candidates weren't there.
It's that they were obsessed with appearances rather than quality of work.
Why do you think Ezra Miller got as many chances as he did?
I firmly believe that good leadership could right the ship, but purges are necessary as these kinds of people are subversive (and in Miller's case, just plain brand damaging).

If you want to read about how difficult it is to adapt Superman into the big screen, read about the production of Man of Steel.
>and I think at this point a hard reboot what just confuse and frustrate everyone more
Dumbass when has that EVER been a problem for Batman? For frick sake just move on

>Sad American Way noises
I don’t even mind “a better tomorrow” but it’s pretty funny to me how the writers seem to think changing the character’s motto is supposed to be a big deal. It’s not like Superman hasn’t stood up to the government before when he’s thought it’s out of line.
It has been brought up time and time again that Superman is a product of American exceptionalism and people have been trying to remove him from that position for DECADES.
Re-tool Ezra Flashpoint so EM becomes reverse flash and at the end of the movie gets his ass kicked by Wally West flash played Sean William Scott (you can suggest whoever you want) he also knows how to run normal and not like an idiot.
I hope Fate is not killed off in Black Adam & I would like him to get a spin off HBO series or something. Outfit is fantastic.
If we got a new Justice League my ideal line up would be...
> Superman (cavill)
> Batman (affleck)
> Wonder Woman
> Aquaman
> Mera (if they recast with someone still hyper sexy who keeps the cleavage, ideally Deborah Ann Woll)

Frick Shazam, Cryborg & The Flasher.
Also

None

Everything
I hope Aquaman 2 is good but also a flop so they can finally kill this failed universe for good

I say Solomon Grundy has more potential
Grundy is a better gimmick but we're talking about a Hulk film in all but name. Grundy is a wandering zombie.
Yeah, but I'm pitching to make a not!Hulk film to capitalize against the competition's inability to do so.
He definitely does and is one of the best parts of Stargirl because of it
Oh yeah that terrible take on Damage was a thing I completely forgot about him.
Grant was a much better character

Again are you high? That’s not a good thing as it looks ugly as frick and does not fit Doctor Fate at all
Frick you, cope.
can DC dethrone Marvel?
no
will Marvel be good?
no
Fate being covered in runic markings with an abnormally shapen helmet looks absolutely kino.
So to showcase how the costume is good you post costumes that look nothing like the shitshow movie design… are you moronic and high?
It has the exact same glossy metal look WTF are you talking about?
All the Doctor Fate helmets that have appeared in live action have had the glossy gold look you moron
>Happen to design the 2nd most fantastic-looking movie costume nexto Black Manta

WB people should be hanged
It makes him look like a Warframe.
And? it looks like shit

Unfortunately WB has proven over the past decade that they are genuinely too stupid to realise how badly they’re fricking their own cash cow.

My one hope that I’ll probably never get is for Wally to replace Barry as the Flash moving forward. And that he’s a red head.

Try to keep up. We were originally talking about Wally, not Batman.
You completely missed the point. We're fine just having a do-over Barry with a new actor/setting. No one fricking cares
Hopes: Zaslav purges the writing staff of anyone who mentions politics on the job and focuses on hiring people who treat writing as a craft.

The next Supe film should be titled Man of Tomorrow. I won't settle for anything else.

Just cancel the movie entirely. Put it in the fire with Batgirl.
It'll never happen, but a Lobo movie would be cool. He'd be deemed too unlikable for most modern audiences though, if done earnestly.
