Its not secret that the DCEU hasn't exactly been a roaring success, and the recent reshuffle that brought in James Gunn, and shunted out Henry Cavill and almost everyone else, got me thinking about how badly this whole franchise went wrong.

    The expression: “Slow and steady wins the race!” is a cautionary tale for a reason and the DCEU is a perfect example of what happens when you try and rush things to catch up to your rivals.
  • A time when marvel used to be good. Their competitors actually crashed and burned trying to copy them. Man how irony truly works over time.
  • This shows to me how much of a miracle that first decade of the MCU was. They weren't always the best films but that they were all competently put together, and worked as a shared universe is a feat that's probably not going to be repeated in our lifetimes. Heck, even the MCU itself seems to have finally run out of steam.
  • The DCEU feels like that essay you write a few minutes before it's due.

    As a DC fan, I feel like being a fan these days is like being in an abusive relationship. "It's okay. This time it will be different. You won't hurt me this time".
  • @ReiMizere
    It takes talent to mess up a Cinematic Universe when the rival company already drew the road map and you have the top 2 most recognizable heroes ever with tons and tons of comics to guide your character work, world building etc

    Brilliant move by WB to drop Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot, Jason Momoa and Dwayne Johnson, while opting to keep the gender-fluid, shining beacon of morality that is Ezra Miller. That’s exactly the kind of person we need portraying our heroes.
  • @Arthas30000
    What's kind of funny is that Zack Snyder did have a hand in the original WW filmed by Patty Jenkins (especially in terms of fight choreography and stunt work). So when they got rid of Snyder and gave her full control, it was a disaster waiting to happen

    Henry Cavill deserved better. I actually love Man of Steel and there was room for that movie to lay groundwork for a superman everyone loves

    I’ve said this a million times. If there’s no Lantern on the team, it’s not Justice League. Plain and simple.

    What's funny is that the animated dcu is extremely good. Something like 11 movies ending a few years ago had non stop gems.

    They wanted the shared universe and they wanted it now. They didn’t bother with the long VERY necessary process of building up their core characters. They tried to do the entirety of MCU Phase 1 in a single movie.

    "One can only imagine the delights of Nic Cage teaming up with the campiest Batman since Adam West". You got that right, mate.
  • And even after all that, dear Drinker, you failed to mention the biggest super villain of all: Ezra Miller
  • Man, imagine if DC took their time and slowly released each film…..
  • The FACT that I haven't watched 2/3rds of the movies shown says it all. The batman vs. Superman truly did break it for me
