How again? I only seen that pile of shit once and it was years
She created the entire situation that needed to be fixed and executed all the witnesses that didn't have a bomb in their necks...

Then threatened Bruce Wayne telling him she knew he was Batman
 
Also, Brandon Routhe superman is essentially the kingdom come superman, which is way stronger than ever other incarnation.

He's basically been on earth so long that kryptonite can't hurt him anymore. He's virtually invulnerable.

So what’s the story behind Red and Blue Superman?

During an interview with DC Films’ Walter Hamada, The New York Times reports that up to four expensive DC movies a year will be released in theaters starting in 2022. However, other films, “perhaps focused on riskier characters like Batgirl and Static Shock will arrive exclusively on HBO Max.”


Director Joss Whedon stepped down from the Batgirl movie in 2018. Christina Hodson (Birds of Prey) is attached to write the script. Warner Bros. is also looking for a female director to replace Whedon.

Back in October, Michael B. Jordan signed on to produce the Static Shock film. Jordan and Reginald Hudlin are overseeing the Milestone Media/DC adaptation. A screenwriter and a director have yet to be hired.

 
Man I just watched Superman Unbound and that shit was DOPE!!!

This version of Brainiac was a super dope villain. Smart, menacing, motivated, ruthless, etc. A true match for Superman.

And the way Superman beat him made perfect sense given the time he’s spent alone on that ship.

Since getting HBO Max I’ve been going back and watching DC animated movies I might have missed.

Any other good ones I need to look out for? I’ve seen the Aquaman origin one and the flashpoint one and the crisis on two earths one and probably a couple of others. I’ve seen the killing joke, the one where Batman is back in the 20’s or something and maybe another Batman one or two.
 
I have a DC question:

What if the Snyder cut is wack?

I feel like fans are holding onto that as idk a last shot of hope the way they cling onto it in a way that’s supposed to exonerate Justice league and alter the perception of DC as a whole...that’s the way it comes across to me atleast...
I don't think it'd stop comic book movies because they are a cash cow whether people want to think they suck or not

I wanted DC to build the foundation before it made group movies but DC wanted to race Marvel. I was happy as hell about Man of Steel because I'm a huge fan and then instead of just doing a sequel they decided to do BvS

Pretty sure they have a bunch of solo movies that are in the works already though
 
Lol do you really trust DC right now with darkseid?
I kind of didn't trust them to do Superman because of how powerful he is. I don't think Marvel has shown how powerful some of their characters are. I was worried about DC. Darkseid is really powerful so I'm worried how they'll portray it

Also worried how they'll display his Omega Beams
 
2 New DC Movies A Year Releasing Exclusively On HBO Max

Justice-League-DCEU-Movie-Plan.jpg



The DCEU is beginning to flesh out plans to greatly expand the franchise, with plans for two movies a year to go straight to HBO Max. The DCEU began in earnest in 2013 with Zack Snyder's Man of Steel starring Henry Cavill as Kal-El. Three years later Batman v Superman brought Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman and Ben Affleck's Batman to the big screen. The franchise has struggled to get off the ground, especially when compared to its most obvious competitor, the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

While the MCU was both critically acclaimed and smashing box office records, the DCEU struggled to keep up. Movies like Suicide Squad and Justice League weren't received well by critics or struggled to make an impact at the box office. 2017's Wonder Woman and 2018's Aquaman changed all that. Both were well received by critics and the latter was the first DCEU film to cross $1 billion at the box offie. Still, plans for the future remained unclear even with a robust slate announced for the coming years.

Now, Walter Hamada, president of DC films, has revealed the studio's plans for the future. According to the NYT, the studio plans to release two DCEU films a year on HBO Max, in addition to theatrical releases (up to four a year). These films will focus on smaller, riskier characters (Batgirl and Static Shock are given as examples). Hamada also says that, in addition to films, television offshoots are possible and those will connect with the larger universe as well.

The larger DCEU universe has been in disarray for quite some time - while the studio has consistently turned out films, their grand plan has remained unclear. At times, it seemed as the studio was rushing out films simply to compete with Marvel, not to create a larger, interconnected franchise. That effort, though, clearly wasn't working - and it became clear Warner Bros. and DC needed to reevaluate their course of action for their comic book adaptations.

The development of an interconnected franchise of smaller movies, television shows, and four theatrical blockbusters a year represents the first effort to synch the franchise across multiple platforms, something Marvel began doing in earnest since some years back. With the recent announcement that Disney+ would have 25 Marvel shows over the next few years, the DCEU was clearly lagging even further behind. Upcoming films like The Flash, Aquaman 2, and The Suicide Squad are clear efforts to get the studio back on track, but they also serve as reminders of the past few years that the DCEU spent spinning its wheels. If the studio ever wants to catch up to Marvel or at least become a formidable competitor, the DCEU needs to solidify their larger plan and get the ball rolling. It seems like Hamada, who took over the studio in 2018, is finally beginning to do that.


Marketing plan on point. Now they need to figure out how to make good films and add some kind of depth and traction to their universe.
