DC Comics Movies/TV Shows News Thread. Chapter 1 - "Gods & Monsters"

[darryl]

I know a guy from LA who got to see a test screening of it months ago... said it was one of the worst movies he's EVER seen. Not just comic book movies but just films in general. I get that these flashy superhero blockbusters can be rough when all the CGI and shyt isn't 100% finished... but unless there was some all-time reshoot/green screen wizardry from then till now shyt sounds like it is gonna be a legendary flop. DC hinging all their hopes on this jumpstarting this reboot is insanity to me, Erza Miller must have some CRAZY dirt on every WB exec for him to keep his job through all this hoopla AND for Gunn to publicly cap so ardently for his supposedly shyt movie on top of it.

Test screenings are a real thing and people in the right industries/circles do get to go to them breh, get ya connects up IRL and you'll see

Forgot about The Authority which is a movie. I wonder if it is part of the DCU or just its own thing?

Gunn said animated, tv, and films will all be connected. Using the animated route is interesting

 

[Roid Jones]

Sounds like they have a plan, let's see if it all works

DC isn’t putting any stock in the flash kickstarting the reboot. The reboot is happening whether the flash is good or not, because once 2025 comes around the flash movie will be irrelevant to the DCU like all the films before it. None of it will carry on or add to the actual planned DCU. That is what a fresh start means. Nothing before it matters.

The reason the flash movie is still coming out is because DC believes it’s a good film that will close the chapter known as the DCEU. If it was terrible like bat woman then it would have been shelved.

Respectfully, I question you nikkas common sense at times.

They’re still trying to make their own universe?

Aside from Nolan’s trilogy, They did better running one offs. These announcements did nothing for me. I’ll wait for trailers.

I do think they should have had gunn put out the superman movie he's writing first as a temperature check and see if it did well rather just give him the keys and make a whole roadmap.

If the movie flopped they should have just left it alone and did one offs

history doesn't really back this up, b/c outside of Peacemaker, i'd had zero interest in the previous DC shows... I watched Doom Patrol S1 and it was fine, i watched the Flash and LoT, but those were some of the most repetitive fukkin shows i've ever seen and i had to bail... but i somehow have faith DC will utilize HBO Max way better than Marvel has Disney+. i'm already tired of the Marvel shows and all the DC Max announcements sounded dope.

Supes will do fine, but it can be a flop compared to previous MoS. We’ll see. I’m skeptical about him writing it tho.

I’m most hyped for that Amanda Waller show. Then I am for that Nick Fury show. The wall gets shyt done. And Viola Davis plays that role perfectly. Very comic book accurate. I like Sam Jackson, his 1 of my favorite actors. But I think the MCU, is not using Nick to his fullest.

And I’m saying they should stick to that instead of trying to build a universe after they already fukked it up. I never questioned anything about one offs not happening.
