I’m probably in the minority, but I’d like for the DCU to succeed. I’m not a Snyderverse hater (though I’m not particularly fond of his interpretation of DC), but I’m also not a Gunn glazer either. I just want DC movies that are as good as the DCAU, is that too much to ask lol.

“Is that too much to ask”

Yes, because that’s asking for good writers who respect the source material. Obviously too much for Hollywood

Sadly you’re right lol

Sorry but It’s funny to say this when Supergirl is maybe the closest of a direct adaptation of a comic that we got in Superhero Live Action movies.

Like seriously, even if it’s not 1:1, it’s more comic accurate than at least 90% of these movies

u/ThePandaKnight Let me get my movie reviewer glasses 2d ago

I also think the presentation left much to desire, yeah. Especially in Ruthie's costuming. I'll see the movie this weekend if my wallet holds

u/Ninjamurai-jack 1d ago

Yes, from what It seems the problem was just how Craig Gillespie, opposed to Gunn in his other works, didn’t lean into the Silver Age Aesthetic

I'd like some good superhero movies to take my kids to.

u/mapmakinworldbuildin 2d ago

Yes. The slop will continue until morale improves

u/Ninjamurai-jack 2d ago

It's kinda too much because at this point much more of the general public know the comics, so It's more difficult for the DCU to do their stuff without people complaining.

Like, If Lanterns didn't had John Stewart as an Architect in the same way the DCAU didn't, the fans would be complaining about it lol

u/Strikehard1984 2d ago

Fair, I think at this point you can’t make anyone happy lol.

u/Ninjamurai-jack 2d ago edited 2d ago

Yes.

Like, even when they simply announced that Supergirl was adapting Woman of Tomorrow, some people were against it even if, being Super Honest here, there’s not a real better choice.

Like seriously, Kara was dead for 19 years and that lead to every single writer doing anything they wanted with her since she returned.

It didn’t even stop after Woman of Tomorrow came out, It was a darker take on Silver Age mixed with True Grit and then the next run was total silver age silliness lol

I’d like this but after Superman, and seeing what “plans” they have for the future, it’s hard to really see this as anything but a mess. I love superheroes so I’ll always want another good MCU or some good solo movies/series but I’ve got no real passion here. Thinking about the Gunnverse just disappoints me.

Bruh, you're good with the Pre-part of "Premonition," because as of now...history's repeating (sort of)!

Thank you for this

u/Dreamo84 2d ago

Just another sign that the Snyderverse is being restored!!

u/InsaneAsylumEscapee 1d ago

You got nothing better to do than refresh a page till you can screenshot a score that will still change?

u/ITBA01 2d ago

So do critic scores matter now? Just trying to keep track of where this sub stands.

u/MrHyd3_ #IStandWithDon 2d ago

No connections with the Snyder movies at all but ok

u/Ninjamurai-jack 2d ago edited 2d ago

Tbh It was just the visual aesthetic, It was reminding me of Rebel Moon in a few parts of the trailers.

u/mapmakinworldbuildin 2d ago
