Figured he wouldn’t want that and instead just keep his hands on the camera and pen/keyboard? I assume he’s done with marvel? But good on him, I feel confident he could take DC to greatness…. now let’s make more DC films/shows rated R, cos their animated movies almost don’t hold back.
 




This tweet by Gal Gadot and similar postings by the Rock and Henry Cavill make a lot more sense now. They were/are trying to save their characters.

 
Every time you think the DCEU can't get any more messy, it somehow does.
 
Huh? The DCEU was already declared dead, and they hired Gunn to move forward with the DCU?

Last month, WB announced the hiring of James Gunn to form a new "DCU", since the DCEU has gotten too convoluted and unpopular. (not to the Snyder-loving Twitter-dirt-mobs, but people who spend money on and/or care about movies being good) Gunn's role would be not unlike that of Kevin Feige's is to Marvel.
 
I've been calling for them to do a hard reboot for years. It is long overdue. In my opinion, a decent Wonder Woman and Aquaman movie (which were good but overrated) weren't worth all the nonsense. The main characters you need in that universe were a hot mess. You can't totally mess up Batman and just work around it.

Or Shazam? IMO it was their funnest film.

Shazam
The Suicide Squad
Wonder Woman 1
Aquaman
MoS
All good

Birds of Prey was fine but not really necessary
I would still like to see the original cut of Suicide Squad

Batman v Superman was okay but that should have come about after 2 or 3 stand alone Batman/Superman films.

Justice League was trash

ZS Justice League cut was much better but could have cut about 30 odd minutes and they rushed to it.

Wonder Woman 84 was dull

Green Lantern bad[yes apart of the DCEU]

I agree with all of that, except I am more "meh" on MoS. It was decent, but needed more innocence, for his start. 2nd half would have worked better as a sequel, IMO... Definitely wasn't good enough to give Snyder the keys to the kingdom. That was a huge mistake!

Honestly, I like Gunn, really liked TSS, as well as Guardians. I really want his DCU to work, but it's also kind of a weird choice, based on his own movies. I guess that he must have pitched someone a really good rough outline! Actually, it's a duo of Gunn and Peter Safran. I think people miss out on him. He produced The Conjuring universe, as well as Aquaman and Shazam (and obviously TSS & Peacemaker). He seems kind of like a no-brainer counterpart to Gunn!

My biggest issue with MoS was killing Jonathan Kent like they did.

Death from a heart attack(something Superman can't stop) is the only way to do it and even then don't do it right away.
 
MoS, WW1 and Aquaman were the best of DCU. Keep those 3 actors and make it work. Henry Cavill or f*** you Gunn. MoS was awesome and it sold beyond expectations and should have gotten a proper sequel.

Thank Snyder for that who wanted to rush. And WB for allowing him to do whatever.
 
Some of the same cast just different styles of characters.

Just make use of the multiverse and say Snyders was earth 40 or something and got wiped out.
