DCEU prediction thread. What do you guys think will happen in the coming years?

>SS will be okay
>WW will be awful, worse than BvS but people will say it is better for some reason
>Justice League will range from okay to bad, maybe even Batman & Robin-level shit

Too early to speak on Green Lantern Corps, and I don't think they're actively working on anything else right now. Bear in mind, I'm a DCfriend to the core and want nothing more than for the DCEU to be good, but I'm really not okay with all the superheroic murder thus far. I think it's irreparably damaged the integrity of both Bats and Supes, but it doesn't matter. We have what we have and there's only going forward.

I hope it's all good. We deserve these films to be good. We've waited long enough.
>>
>>84594424
I think we'll see a bunch of /tv/ memes that stifle any quality and retroactively make the movies obnoxious as fuck.

Cause Batman never killed in the Burton or Nolan films...

Oh wait...

I don't have any predictions really, but I will say that I'm very interested in seeing the non-Snyder DCEU films as to whether or not they fit into the saga which Snyder is currently doing.

Personally, I really enjoy both Man of Steel and Batman v Superman and am looking forward to Justice League.

I'm also really excited about The Flash too.

>but people will say it is better for some reason
>for some reason
It's alright to call pandering/political correctness/Muh Diversity out for what it is, anon. People will pretend it's not nearly as bad as it is for exactly the same reason they're currently pretended the new Ghostbusters isn't nearly as bad as it is (and I actually *liked* the idea when they tried it in the new comics this was just not a very good movie).
>>
>>84594424
Hopefully WB and Snyder redeem themselves by not releasing an incomplete movie again.
WW introduces the Olympian Gods and New Gods concept.
Flash introduces the multiverse concept, maybe a Flash of Two Worlds adaptation?
Superman returns and gets a solo movie, have him fight Metallo or Brainiac and stop with the Jesus allegory already, he's the savior we get it.
Tbh i dont care about BatFleck getting a movie that much, he's awesome and the movie will do tons of money anyways.

That's the thing though. If the movie is good a bunch of crybaby MRA douchebags are going to say people are only saying it's good because they're trying not to piss off feminists. Also, crybaby MRA types are really fucking loud on the internet.

Which is even more retarded when you take into account that Wonder Woman is a member of the fucking DC Trinity, and is a Golden Age fucking character. The fact that there hasn't been a Wonder Woman film yet is more surprising than the fact that one is coming out in less than a year.

Regardless of the DCEU's future quality, it will never reach Marvel's level. The amount of cinematic universes the average moviegoer can tolerate is usually very small.

I hope that DC realizes that massive superhero movies are just a bubble, and get onto the next big craze - Hanna Barbera adaptations.

>You guys think Superman will be fixed?
Nothing to fix.
He inherently wants to save people, he looks for the good in people (hence not looking for anything amiss at the senate), he doesn't look down or see himself as above normal people.
Every core aspect of the character is perfectly intact, he just isn't campy or silly anymore and he doesn't pussyfoot around in desperate situations.

Y'know, they could adapt Geoff Johns Green Lantern run, albeit changing details to fit this universe and for newcomers. I'd really love to see that.
Secret Origin-Sinestro Corps War-Rage of the Red Lanterns-Agent Orange-Blackest Night-Brightest Day-War of the Green Lanterns
Though with the GL movie being Corps, and it seeming that the DCEU is already alive they could skip Secret Origin and go to Sinestro Corps War.
Imagine a Sinestro Corps War where they use the opening to show Hal Jordan's origin in a brief montage, Sinestro turning evil, etc. instead of retreading the origin.

Talked plenty, the point of him not talking to the public in BVS was intentional that he was making a mistake by not doing so, its called character development.

Suicide Squad will be fine, score in the mid 70s on RT, maybe even in the mid 80s and make a ton of money because of that. Wonder Woman will be received well due to its simpler story and focus but will criticized for its bleak tone.

Justice League's performance really depends on SS's and WW's reception. If they're seen as good solid movies, JL will probably do well, though I have very little faith left in Zack Snyder's directing skills.

But I am a pretty hardcore Aquaman fan and that is EXACTLY what I desperately want.

That's an exaggeration and you know it. Aquaman isn't particularly much more horrific than most other Big 2 superheroes. Yeah, some fucked up shit has happened to him, but then some fucked up shit has happened to EVERY other hero.

His hand being eaten by piranha and his baby being murdered are more tragedies than straight up horror.

People sure people forget the period where Black Manta was an actual monster for a reason.

Only point you really have is Cthulhu and that sort of thing doesn't even factor into the Aquaman 'mythos' THAT much.

Yeah, but wouldn't a movie about that be fucking great?

Personally I'm sad that they're using New Gods for the first Justice League movie and not based Starro.

Starro could work so well as this Lovecraftian monster with mind-control and nuke absorbing powers.

I have a feeling I'll never see Starro brought to life on the big screen, but a man can dream.

They better not make a thing of people being like "Oh, you talk to fish, how pathetic," and show Aquaman being a badass showing them up.

>I have a feeling I'll never see Starro brought to life on the big screen, but a man can dream.
Agree with all of this though. Starro would be so much better than fucking Steppenwolf.

What they should've done was started out with Starro or something else, like the White Martians (introducing J'onn this way as well), then introduced the New Gods in their own movie. Or maybe introduced Intergang in BvS or MoS2 and use that to lead into a New Gods movie.

Agree with this 100%. For fuck's sakes, the dude is basically Golden Age Superman on land, pretty much Superman underwater, can control sealife, which is much more badass than it sounds, has a hot, badass wife who herself has the same abilities more or less, minus the ability to control sealife, but has the ability to manipulate water with her mind, and finally, is the king of Atlantis, meaning he's got all the resources of Atlantis at his disposal. Or should at least. They should do more with that.

Point is, Aquaman is completely impressive on his own. The whole thing of people not finding him impressive in-universe has never really made sense. If he existed in real life, we'd think he were some real shit. And lesser characters captivate audiences as well. It's so stupid.

Hopefully with that Justice League Dark movie, they give Constantine a solo movie, much like how there's talk of a Harley Quinn movie after Suicide Squad. I really liked the Constantine tv show, and Hellblazer works for the horror genre. Also call the damn thing Hellblazer.

Its not, but I do actively want gritty immerse-ness so it feels realistic.

Yes, but not by Snyder.

Superman needs a new movie directed by a really high-caliber pop director. Somebody like Abrams or Gore Verbinski or Rian Johnson. It should have pretensions of deepness that don't really go anywhere, but above all else it should be fun to watch and it should convey a great warmth and love for everything involved. Snyder's Supes is too cold. He should overflow with cheer and joy and goodwill.

Are you fucking serious? Doomsday isn't anything but a giant, intimidating, nigh-invincible monster. How can you do anything BUT play him seriously? He has no real personality other than, "Kill and destroy everything in sight." I don't even really like Doomsday but that there are people out there who think like you worries me. Like, considering how one-dimensional Doomsday is, it's pretty fucking hard to fuck him up.

That was Marvel Studios though.

Anyway, thing about Doomsday is, even though he's never been a particularly good character, he's associated with one of the most mainstream Superman stories. A lot of casual superhero fans are at least somewhat vaguely familiar with Doomsday and know he's the guy who killed Superman. They know he's essentially a rampaging beast who's an omen of mindless death and destruction wherever he goes. Unlike the Mandarin, he's an easier character to translate on screen as well. All you really need to do is just make a big, scary rampaging monster that can challenge Superman in a fight. And that's all really.

Okay first, how the hell does a reporter, that's fucking another reporter that was raised on "People are going to react to you in certain ways" need to be TOLD to to do the bare minimum in PR.

Second, there's no realization of that mistake. There's an acceptance that Earth is his home, maybe. (One that took like twenty years too long) but nothing by way of him talking to the public.

Third, the only humanity he connects with is still Lois. She still remains a representative of the entirety of humanity. Too much hinges on her and his emotional attachment to her. We're still very much on the Injustice timeline.

Fourth, it's not character development until it's DONE. You guys pulled this same shit after Man of Steel and it wasn't delivered on for the entirety of this movie as you were so sure it was. Anti-Social Kal-El is just what Snyder wants. Stop trying to imply they're just getting to it.

There's at least three things wrong with that, but the most pertinent is the end of that sentence you curiously omitted. We're still on the path to Injustice. Nothing was done to rectify that.

>Being stoic and reserved isn't anti social.
No, but only having one link to humanity is.

Donner Superman got mad, he got sad at things, he had conflict. He just had the full range of human emotions so I guess if you're autistic that comes off as being happy go lucky all day every day.

I forgot a comma.
Clark is a reporter. He should understand PR.
Clark is fucking another reporter. She should've taken his pronged space dick out of her mouth long enough to say "we should really work on your public image".
Clark's dad committed suicide by tornado because of how huge a fucking deal people reacting to the reality of Clark would've been.

ALL that, and he still never thinks "Maybe I should put some effort into my image". Once is enough. Twice is stretching it. Three times and he still didn't do shit until after he was called in to the senate just proves he doesn't care as much as the movie claims he does.
>>
>>84605372
Naw man I've seen the Diana hates necks meme but she's supposed to be about love and rehabilitation and all that shit according to her fans. That's why they hated the Azz run. Part of it is also because Marston's femdom was non-violent in nature and he waso ne of those nu-male types that went "women are just naturally more peaceful and will go for diplomacy rather than conflict'.

It's in her DNA. Diana being turned into She-Kratos runs counter to that.

But it's exactly what they'll do, and you'll scream "NOT MUH WONDER WOMAN" at anyone that says otherwise, so whatever.

>>84605429

It's also possible he feared if he got too in the spot light on TV and everything someone would identify him.

>>84605412
So, this Superman has precedence in the version that doesn't want to be Superman and has to be guilt tripped into it, the one that retires and fucks off, and the one that requires the context of the "silly campy" classic version you guys hate so much to have any merit as a story at all?

Be honest. You've just read summaries of those stories off of Wikipedia, right?

Nigga I loved the Azz run. And because I actually read it, I have no problem remembering all the people that hated it and said how much it pissed on what Wonder Woman was. I'm just saying those people haven't gone anywhere.

Which, for example, is why the first thing Rucka did when he got back on Wonder Woman a month ago was retcon the shit out of it and say the Azz run was bullshit and never happened.
>>
>>84605512
Tone and mood are only part of a story and work in service of its plot and vice versa. You cannot remove one of those facets without fundamentally changing the others. You seem to think this is the case, and refuse to entertain notions that stories are constructed as a whole and not of segmented elements. Why is that?
>>

>If we have even an ounce of levity that makes us Marvel, remember?

>but if she makes Wonder Woman kinda brutal, neck snappin' and less than sympathetic with her reaction to the brutalities of modern warfare, it would be a badass twist
Oh fuck off with this shit. The worst thing modern DC ever did with WW was make her an angry Amazon that had NO problems killing people if she felt like she needed to.

Honestly if anything, she should be more gentle and even more adverse to killing than Kal-El.

This post >>84605452 nails it.

But unfortunately, we are more than likely getting a WW who kills so fuck everything.

A better twist would be a WW or a superhero in general who legitimately wants to solve conflict peacefully, MLK-style. Non-violent resolution. Someone who wanted to preach non-violence and actually supported her words with action. And actually managed to do it despite all odds.

>>84605495

>>84605544
The tone & mood are all I want changed.
I loved everything about Superman & his mythos but the tone and silliness.
He can inspire people thru struggling and striving to acomplish great things instead of waving his hand and it be done.
He can be a light in the darkness instead of a light in a already bright happy world.
I want him to contextually actually have something to improve.
>>
My DCEU prediction is that they're going to move Wonder Woman's release date, either to be one of the first movies of the season, or to the dead season around October-November.

Because while it might not flop, there are way too many signs it will under-perform where it's scheduled for now.

>Aquaman is going to get made dc has spent years carefully crafting his rise to popurality there not going to just throw that all away.
This.

They're not scrapping any of their 'Phase One' movies. They're too far into this now.

What's really up in the air is what they're going to do once Snyder's gone. Are they going to soft-reboot the universe? Or are they just going to try to salvage what's left of it? Or maybe they'll just give up if they keep pumping out flop after flop (which I'm not saying is what will happen, just that it's a possibility).

>>84605648
Did you really just attempt to compare Zack Snyder to Stanley Kubrick?
>>
>>84605669
No I'm not moving the goal post.
That is what I meant by waving his hand.
If the are going to take the concept seriously. Then he must treat him like they would any other character and that includes limitations and that means stuff like he can never kill because he will find another way is thrown out the window because that is sometimes not fucking feasible.
>>
>>84605673

I'm saying Superman can be as silly as Reeves or as dead serious and realistic ad 2001, BOTH are valid paths to take.

It's really obvious you don't get the point of the character. Maybe go read Spawn. That should be more your speed.
>>
>>84605734
Wonder Woman is the risky one.
It's got a relatively unproven lead, no major name draws (especially none that they can market), Ghosbusters has proven that marketing to feminism and controversy doesn't actually work (It didn't even get #1 movie its opening weekend, Secret Life of Pets is kicking its ass) and it's got too close an aesthetic to BvS to attract people that were burned twice by Snyder.

And that's all without considering the fact that its release is sandwiched between the money printing franchises of Transformers and Pirates of the Caribbean. Like I said earlier, WB HAS to move WW's release date or they're fucked.

I don't think Wonder Woman is as risky as you might think. Sure, it's an unproven character, but even people who hated BvS thought that Gal Gadot did a fine job as Wonder Woman and liked the character a lot.

Wonder Woman is THE female superhero, she's got a sizeable fanbase, and I think many people will want to see the movie just to see the character. After that, it really depends on the reviews to see how long its legs are.

DC will win

1. Females
Marvel includes the gratuitous ab shot a lot. But women would give up that stuff IN A SECOND for a female superhero. 11 years for a female led movie? Are they serious ? An ab shot instead of an ass or tit shot is not a substitute for female superheroes or villains (see Iron Man 3)
2. Diversity
Black sidekicks. Thats what Marvel has given to deviate from white males so far. They are rushing to make up for it with Black Panther. But what about Asians, Hispanics, Arabs, etc.? People are only getting more sensitive about this. Every DC movie thus far has had the diversity of the Fast & Furious movies and will share their success.
