What damage control ? S*** wasn’t going to stop with one tumble especially considering the majority that have seen it believe it’s an alright film,

DC comes out with something that reviews well and you won’t say one word, but go ahead and wear yourself out.

Ah yeah the 200 people that have seen the movie and actually like it is certainly helping DC Studios

Maybe they should focus on making good movies so that I don’t have to talk s***

I’m excited for MoT but Clayface hasn’t really grabbed me yet.

Just hope Gunn steps up with the talent he involves in these

DCU kind of feeling like the Arrowverse rn with how they can't get Batman or Wonder Woman going

Wild idea:

What if they made Batman a recurring antagonist in this universe?

Rather than having two separate live-action Batman franchises running simultaneously, what if instead they used the character as the antagonist in these villain-led films? (Clayface, Bane/Deathstroke, etc.)

He would still be a good guy obviously, but he would be an antagonist solely from a structure standpoint

The villains are the main characters of these films and the stories follow them, but Batman is their main adversary the entire time, you could almost make him a horror-esque villain

Some industry insiders who spoke to TheWrap say the problems run deeper than one underperforming film. “All this is, is a Gunn and Safran production deal,” one DC insider said of DC Films’ current trajectory. “It’s not a brand. Announcing a universe was dumb. DC created an expectation and now you have delivered one Superman movie.”

With the Paramount-WBD merger looming, a top agent even questioned whether Gunn survives the fallout. “I don’t know how nervous DC is, but certainly James Gunn should be nervous,” the agent said. “There will always be a DC and the current execs have survived previous regime changes, but I don’t think Gunn survives.”

A Warner Bros. insider pushed back on concern over Gunn and Safran’s larger strategy or any potential leadership changes to be made by Ellison, reiterating that they have a 10-year DC plan and “Supergirl” was just a single-film miss. The insider said the studio is “disappointed” with the film’s performance, adding the character “didn’t connect.”

The narrative has begun

Gunn might have his way out lmao

There's no legit reason they can't get the ball rolling on Wonder Woman. The "Gadot was too recent" argument doesn't hold.

Amazing Spider-Man 2 was in 2014 and Tom Holland was introduced as the MCU Spidey literally two years later in 2016.

Wonder Woman 1984 was six years ago, they should've had the next film casted and dated by 2024.

The Batman holdup I get more because of Pattinson

Aka what they should have done way back in suicide squad

The cartoon assault on Arkham movie laid out that exact blue print

Also I just remembered that DC decided to throw her in Shazam 2 AND The Flash in 2023

So like we're only 3 years removed from Gal

You mentioning cameos in 2 flops as a valid excuse for no wonderwoman?

Henry cavill was a cameo in black Adam, did that affect putting out a new Superman movie? Exactly

It's not a valid excuse

I'm just saying like I get why they might be holding her back but I don't agree with it
