Except for the Green Lanterns (which I'm only cautiously optimistic for) show I can't say I really care about any of this.

Hopefully the sequel to The Batman has the Court of Owls. I'd be excited for that.

The Batman movie is iffy for me. I also haven't heard of some of these projects. But I'm excited af about Lanterns.

I feel the same way. GL might have potential if it's written well, with some inspiration, and not just boring, with lots of soul searching and filler. It's a mystery how anybody can stand the pain of watching Flash or Superman & Lois, much less renew them for new seasons.

I really hope the Lantern show doesn't end up with Hal turning evil and/or dead like that recent animated movie. Didn't like that shit in the 90s and definitely don't want to do it again.

I'm not enthusiastic but it can't possibly be worse than Man of Steel/BvS/Suicide Squad/Justice League so I'll give them a shot.

Did you watch Snyder Cut/Justice league ? It was pretty good. It was also a shame Zack Snyder took his sweet time until he got his act together with Justice League, finally... And it was too late by then.

I can say for the New Direction of Gunn, it is such a shame that Booster Gold doesn't get a film. Booster Gold as a character just right up Gunn's ally. That is such a missed opportunity... I like Booster Gold, it is such a shame that Gunn will make a TV Show for him that i will never watch. I don't watch tv anymore.

I like The Authority. I read both Warren Ellis and Grant Morrison runs back in the day. I wonder with Today's PC America, how much of The Authority from comics will be carried to the film true to the source material. The Authority team see themselves above all world laws and governments. I mean They are The Authority, duh. There was a part where They were scholding and threatining the president of France in comics. lol

Considering the shit Snyder was going through just be glad he got to finish Justice League at all. It is a bummer he never got to finish the story he set up though.

We can point to specific failures in each production, but overall, and recognizing that I could get in trouble for saying this, I think that Hollywood as a whole is being ruined by manipulative "woke" corporate culture. It poisons every aspect, from thematic content and characterization to costume design and music. What's needed is a Hollywood equivalent of the Twitter purge. There, I said it.

IMO the first GotG movie was okay at best... didn't like the 2nd one... and I thought the new Suicide Squad movie was horrible. And DC gives this guy the keys to the kingdom... don't get it.

snyder cut was fucking fantastic. One of my favorite superhero movies. And this is coming from someone who felt meh about his previous outings. It is truly a royal shame we will never get sequels. But I'm glad we got what we got.

Said what exactly? Hollywood is a business... it will always follow the money. And what do you mean twitter purge? You think Elon Musk buying twitter was a good thing for twitter?

If it leads to Twitter ceasing to exist then yes.
