Yeah but they defo doing an origin story, last time we saw that s*** was 20 years ago

Yeah media is going for blood on the exit. Didn't help how Gunn handled his relationship with them

These articles are hitting like bullets some of them border on hit piece and fluffing up lachtam without concen of the future but who knows.

unn’s “Superman,” starring David Corenswet — the duo’s first big swing as bosses — was touted as a hit with $618 million against a $225 million budget. Those ticket sales were promising enough, given the general decline in popularity of comic book movies. But they didn’t necessarily signal the kind of lasting enthusiasm that spawns an interconnected universe. Momentum all but evaporated with July’s money-loser “Supergirl,” which flopped with $126 million globally against a $170 million budget. And while October’s “Clayface” performed modestly with $109 million against a $44 million budget, sources suggest the body-horror thriller won’t break even until the studio factors in downstream revenues.

Insiders have raised eyebrows at Gunn and Safran’s decision to focus on lesser-known characters, like Superman’s cousin Kara El-Zor, aka Supergirl, and the Batman villain Clayface, rather than building out the franchise with marquee names. Although superhero movies have been hit or miss, the ones that spotlight notable characters can still pack a box-office punch. July’s “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” became the third-biggest movie in history with $2.5 billion, and December’s “Avengers: Endgame,” which brings back just about all of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, could challenge the web-slinging Marvel sequel’s box office records.

Internally, there’s hope that Latcham — an executive who helped shape the MCU — will get back to basics with DC.

“Jeremy is the kind of guy who would go to Comic-Con to get an autograph from someone,” says another source, “not someone who wants to be there signing autographs.”

Doing two or three different Batman stories where you continue Battinson as early Batman, do Batman Beyond with Old Man Bruce, and then Mainline DCU where Bruce is setting up the Justice League, Nightwing Robin 2 and Batgirl are holding down Gotham >>>> us pretending that we have the patience for another Year One batman trilogy which is overdone at this point if they do it a third time

Television efforts, too, were uneven. DC’s main small-screen success was “The Penguin,” a “Batman” spinoff led by Colin Farrell, was greenlit before Gunn and Safran took over. But the rest of the slate has generated less fanfare. Gunn’s “Peacemaker” series, anchored by John Cena, debuted in 2022 before he stepped into the studio job. Although initial season was popular, the second season – which launched three years later – failed to match the buzz of the first. “Lanterns,” their first live-action TV show, had posted decent viewership. Yet an insider at the company suggests the crime drama isn’t quite capturing the zeitgeist, pointing out the show didn’t get renewed for a second season.
“People cannot wait to make another season of a hit show,” the source said.

Which I also called would bite him in the ass lol

Well, The Odyssey didn't flop so the low-vibrationalists will take their wins wherever they can find em

that closing sentence was killer man

The variety article feels like f***ing cope from paramount. Just constantly stating “sources say”

S*** you talking bout will take 10 years. These mfers want a quick buck. They either make Battinson main Batman in universe or Batman 2 is his send off

I mean yeah just like the Kojima situation some of this is constructing a narrative

some of these media outlets were ready for blood though he talked to them crazy and taunted them.

I wasn’t a fan but some of it was alright

its been 4 years. If you had a clear list of directors and writers as a team. you would have a slew of movies and tv shows out and in development.

brother man of tomorrow and gorilla grodd ( which just went into production ) are the only things left.

"Sources" lol

The Lanterns point doesn’t make sense to me they say it was well received but “people cannot wait to Renew a hit series”

What people? It’s up to them to renew it lol

4 years after Man of Steel for reference

Man of Steel
BVS

were out with Justice League in production and he was doing all those films himself

Aquaman
Flash

needed to be started sooner and assemble a cast , directors adn writers and I called that too

Damn

he called it . mnay of us did.

ngl Gunn DC was a bust, never really found interest in it other than Superman. Might watch Lanterns but not sure if it'll be worth it if it doesn't get season 2.

Ew no

Lanterns worth a watch even if no season 2 and even if the universe is over.
