(BP) Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 I’m happy with a larger universe Batman taking on all of the franchise baggage so the Reeves Batman movies can breathe and focus on Batman. Supposedly the new The Batman and Joker movies will be officially labeled as Elseworlds, which would’ve been helpful when the first ones were released. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheVileOne Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Announcing the whole DCU slate before they finished releasing these other films was one of the most monumentally stupid moves ever. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 I think what’s even dumber is that WBD, after axing stuff like Batgirl because it was from a previous regime, was still full speed ahead on Aquaman and Blue Beetle (I refuse to believe Blue Beetle was the start of Gunn’s run) despite those being obvious bombs and bound to lose money when it’s likely that Batgirl would have been more helpful to Max. I mean, Jesus, your co star in a supposed big blockbuster is Patrick Wilson who I feel like is the newer version of Greg Kinear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted December 6, 2023 Author Share Posted December 6, 2023 Honestly, it's more sunk cost than anything else. You have to do Flashpoint, because it actually sets up the different universes concept and actually allows to transition to the Gunn-verse. Blue Beetle gets done because Xolo Mariduena is going to be Beetle in the new universe too. I'm guessing the upcoming Booster Gold series will deal with that. Aquaman 2 appears to just be an expensive mess, so hey, why not get some of it back. The first one was more fun than a lot of the other dour offerings from the Snyder-verse, and frankly it was basically in the can when the switchover was announced. Guessing Momoa might appear in the new universe, since... Spoiler (and yes, Batgirl getting shelved sucks massively. Regardless of it being good or not, or whatever. There's no justification for it.)

odessasteps Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 I saw the Aquaman trailer the other day. All I can really say is that it was cool seeing Black Manta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man, Pedro didn't exactly suck as Lord, even if the movie was awful. He definitely wasn't the problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxB Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 I would imagine it's probably quite hard to schedule Pedro Pascal just now. He's pretty busy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
