should DC just scrap the whole cinematic universe garbage and just focus on creating oscar bait?
Should DC just scrap the whole cinematic universe garbage and just focus on creating oscar bait?
that would unironically kill them and lead to disney purhasing them for pennies
Stand alone kino>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Cinematic reddit universes
Hi, I'm an exec at Warner Bros. Thanks for making this image, I'll bring this up at the next board meeting.
Thanks,
Thomas
Only reason Fox's X-Men / Franchises was ever good at times
It would unironcally make more sense, even if it had to stay PG-13 I’d love if they stayed on making mature kino. Maybe do a full on All-Star superman for maximum kino potential
DC needs to bring Snyder back
Where does Shazam! fit in to this? seeing as it's not adult oriented but still kino.
>Maybe do a full on All-Star superman for maximum kino potential
Would be awesome stand alone kino. Can be a Chris Reeve type film easily.
>DC needs to bring Snyder back
Yes. But instead of DCEU just have him finally make MOS 2.
yo, my boy Tom gonna include me in the screencap?
it's like deadpool sort of?
From the beginning DC should have seen what Marvel was doing and decided to do the exact opposite.
Instead of a conected world, they should have used the opritunity of standalone movies to tell outlandish and different types of stories that don't need to worry about fitting into an established world.
When Marvel was going Captain Marvel, they could have been doing Red Sun Superman. When Marvel was going Iron Man 9, they could have been doing Batman Beyond. When Marvel was going Avengers 2, they could have been doing The Flashpoint Paradox.
And ONLY THEN after a decade of unique interesting stories that only work thanks to their separate continuities, DC can slap back at Infinity War with their own Crisis on Infinite Earth's bringing all of these different stories together for a huge crossover.
So much potential. But no, they had to copy Marvel because Jews will be Jews. Monkey see monkey do.
They should do a movie based on that comic were superman lands in soviet russia as a baby instead of america.
I think plebes will start to get the picture that these are one shot elseworld movies if superman is a commie and batman is an anarchist
>creating oscar bait
copying oscar bait
DC also needs to do three things
1. turn batman beyond into a live action tv show
2. turn static shock into a live action tv show
3. turn sandman into a live action tv show
DC needs to drop Marvel and form their own identity. WB had it so good right up to BvS, good or bad at least it was different and had something to say instead of playing it safe. And now we have glimpses of good DC films with Aquabro, WW, Shazam and now Joker. Embrace the Elseworld stories and make kino.
The most fucked up thing about the DCEU is their animation and small screen projects kicked ass for literal decades. Instead of getting people from those involved they thought it would be more productive for every studio executive to collectively fuck a doorknob with Zack Snyder on the other side of the door. He gets a lot of undeserved shit, but he was a bad fit for Superman. But there are tons of projects they he could have done to give DC movies a decent feel above the MCU shit. But the coke heads in WB were just in a rush to do ANYTHING after Marvel made its first billion. It's like they all looked at each other mad as fuck and yelled "DO SOMETHING!" at each other at the same time when they had plenty of people working and doing a great job.
DC should start making low budget indie niche films of indie comics like transmetropolitan, Y the last man, madman, savage dragon, sandman, witchblade, etc
GIVE ME A STRAY BULLETS SERIES ON HBO YOU FUCKS.
Who should play Monster?
>finally get rid of box office poison hack snyder
>bring him back
Wew
His handlers assumed he had vision because hebdirected watchmen, turns out he was just shot for shot remaking the comic and has no real artistic vision
Fuck snyder
thats what they are planning to do with Black Adam and Birds of Prey
Even tho these are still somewhat part of the universe
Release the fucking Snyder Cut first, Thomas.
Yes.
DC assets as standalone movies have always been better than the DCEU attempt. Its time they realised its standalone movies/trilogies works best for DC characters.
Red Son hivemind. That would make for absolute kino but I don't know if DC wants to deal with the PR nightmare of "commie Superman" even in a post-Bernie America.
I don't know. I've never actually taken the time to think about a cast for it. I think the book itself would be perfect for a series, though, as we hop in and out of these people's lives. Plus, I'd love for people to get an Amy Racecar episode with no explanation whatsoever and then have everything go on as normal the following week.
Watchmen was fucking garbage. You only pretend to like it for the Manhattan and Snyder memes
>He gets a lot of undeserved shit, but he was a bad fit for Superman.
People forget that at the time no one wanted to touch Superman because the character was too hard to write/direct for. It took Nolan and Snyder who was willing to tackle Supes and make the damn film. It's happening again now that Snyder is stepping away.
what the fuck memes are you talking about you fucking autist? at least I'm not aware of them unlike you.
Stop pretending All Star Superman was good. It's almost as overrated as Dark Knight Returns
All I know is that releasing the Joker trailer opening week for their new film killed all Shazam's hype. DC cannot stop shooting themselves in the foot - so whatever they decide (blockbusters vs arthouse), it will always fail.
I'm still surprised he managed to find work after Suckerpunch.
Shazam had to die so that Joker could live
No, they should just do a cinematic universe that respects the comics, like Marvel.
Seethe harder.
>Look ma I’m hating on stuff most people like again in front of muh Yea Forums friends!!!
I hope you die of carbon monoxide poisoning
UUUUNFORGETABLE
IS WHAT YOU ARE
UUUUNFORGETABLE
THOUGH NEAR OR FAR
**Why did you post watchmen, now I will lose three and a half hours of my life watching it again**
>DC Claps back with CRISIS of INFINITE EARTHS
I see it...in my dreams...in my dreams...
>Its time they realised its standalone movies/trilogies works best for DC characters
THIS. And say this as someone who reads comics: Unlike marvel comics, where most characters comics share the same climate and vibe, in DC things change too radically from comic to comic. That makes it reading DC comics WAY more interesting, since you are never eating the same dish and can read 20+ comics at the same time without feeling burned, but it makes crossovers weird to say the least. Reading Batman in a Batman comic, where stuff is gritty, dark, and edgy, and then seeing him on Justice League, a comic with a lighter tone, is somewhat weird, and makes Batman just seems like a gary stu asshole. Gotham noir tone, light, and unending violence justifies his actions and behaviour and make it seems almost obligatory, but that doesn't translate well in crossovers. That freedom to create it's own tone usually makes for more interesting stories and greater arcs, but this is obviously not crossworld material.
I'm not saying they should drop the cinematic universe stuff, just that it shouldn't be the main focus, like BVS to Justice League. It should be something more rare.
All you fags saying “oh they shud mayke a cinematick univurse” or “ maike it arthouse” are queers. They should stop pumping out capeshit every other fucking day, and stop it entirely.
Fucking imagine
One summer you watch Batman Beyond on the big screen
The next summer its Darkest Night
Only in dreams, only in dreams
Cry harder bitch nigga
