Dc just making silly decisions and preventing other dc heroes from taking the spotlight.

Well, if they're planning on keeping Superman as a flagship movie franchise I think it makes sense to not do a Shazam movie for a while. Dc is still trying to rebuild and establish Superman on the big screen again. I think after another movie or two and after a Justic League movie people would be ready for Shazam.

You're clueless

Making a Shazam flick when they're trying to re establish Superman and set up a Justice League series of flicks would be a stupid move.

Another failed troll attempt by quan...

nice lats

lol he works out

What is wrong with establishing both at the same time or releasing Shazam afterwards. Nothing. It is all about Superman and Batman while the other heroes take a backseat. Marvel meanwhile is shitting down Superman's throat. Open wide, Kal.

So, this article basically has no proof whatsoever. That's nice, I guess.

If WB are making the choice to slow Shazam as a movie for the time being due to Superman, then I can understand why, as it might confuse some people. I think there are ways around it though, and they shouldn't be so hasty.

lol @ the insecure butt-hurt though. Seriously, it's always amusing.

lol, quanicakes.

They're all posting the same thing. The director's opinion as to why there won't be a movie is one thing. Whether we actually get a statement about it is another, especially with DC pushing Shazam pretty hard in the comics this last while.

Nice of you to completely ignore the part of my post where I addressed what it would mean if it was actually true, though.

I know you hate DC, but try to see past your obvious bias for once, kay?

lol, because Wonder Woman wasn't totally added to the movie. And they totally don't have other movies in the works. Your hate blinds you.

Of course, only you can enjoy Marvel, right? lol.

Dc puts everything else on hold and reboots Superman and Batman again while sharing screen time. Big whoop.


You loved Man of Steel. The movie was offensive to my sensibilities but if you like repetitive action along with a stale romance then Man of Stell will click alright.

Your logic is broken. Stop pretending like DC and Marvel are at the same point in development.

lol, you again with the personal insults. Stay classy as always, junior Marvel fan. I never said they were on the same point in development. Marvel is light years ahead. Part of the problem is Dc's focus on Superman and Batman whereas marvel is bringing Ironman and Thor into our living rooms. Seems like the bigger heads at dc are hellbent on history repeating itself.

Plus, like it or not, Caps more of a"B lister" by mainstream standards. Making a movie with him makes about as much sense as Marvel making a Beta Ray Bill movie during the build up to Avengers.. Or, showing the Guardians of the Galaxy before the A listers broke the box office and established interest for the likes of Rocket Raccoon and Groot.

As much as I'd personally like to see Billy (and Bill ) get a movie, now isn't really the time..

Except your posts keep acting like they are. Marvel's first big movies were about its bigger characters ie Xmen and Spidey. And Hulk. Iron Man came much later, as much as you might like to pretend otherwise.

Exactly. Xmen and Spidey aren't in the same movie universe nor are they in the same plans as Disney's marvel universe. Iron Man, Thor, and Cap not more of the same. They threw in an entirely new Hulk into the Avengers movie as well.

Disney's marvel makes Dc's movie universe look like a junior varsity.

Why isn't Marvel making a Beta Ray Bill movie right now? Exactly. You might as well cry that DCisn't focusing on a Matter-Eating Lad film instead of a sequel to MoS.

Considering they're two of the biggest characters in DC, focusing on them right now makes sense, if you had any common sense you'd know this. There's also the fact they're setting up movies for other DC heroes and seemingly going to use the JL flick as the launch pad. Different strategy than Marvel; as a fan of superhero movies I'm hoping it works.

Again, you're probably the only bandwagon-boi who cares about "Marvel is making more money at the moment", if DC heroes start making more money, you'll just as quickly jump over, tourist. ie Batman films did very well; you claim to like them, bandwagon-boi.

Incorrect again. While the actor changed, it's the same character in regards to Banner/Hulk and the events of The Incredible Hulk (2008) are part of the same continuity and lead up to The Avengers, just as the Thor, Iron Man 1&2 and Captain America do.

This has got to be the 3rd or 4th time I've explained this to you, watch the damn film already if you can't accept some else’s word

Ironman crushed the rebooted Man of Steel at the box office.

I don't care about money making but it is an objective indicator on which company is more successful. Marvel makes better movies. Points to Avengers. Pumps arms.

Neither is DC, if you follow their plans for setting up other characters

Iron Man 3 did.

Oh my, you're just dense.

Did you miss the fact that we see Tony Stark in the end credits of The Incredible Hulk? <--- Clicky

Did you not follow that the part where Ruffalo explains "I got low and I put a bullet in my mouth" was a nod to the deleted scene in The Incredible Hulk where Banner tries to kill himself, but Hulks out?

So for what is probably the 5th time, The Incredible Hulk (2008) is part of the same continuity as Thor, Captain America, Iron Man and The Avengets flicks

Yes, it did.


The films are better. Man of Steel was absolute garbage. I look down on anyone who says it is an awesome movie.

Thor 2 made big leaps as well. Mother are gaining steam unlike dc hey lets mimick the marvel way.

A different actor but without the continuity. Marvel adds to their universe they don't just keep hitting the reset button.


They should have more than just another character on the horizon. Its clear they don't know what they are doing evidenced by the colossal nightmare Man of Steel turned out to be.



I disagree. Avengers craps all over Superman as well. Quit picking and choosing what counts. Avengers and Ironman crap all over Superman's chin.

Lol Batman crapped all over IM. MOS origin surpassed IM's origin. The next Superman has Batman. You'll be crying when everyone's jumping to the theater to watch it

It is a shame that IM was so good and the two sequels that followed couldn't top it.

I'm more looking forward to seeing IM in another Avengers flick than another IM film at this point.

MoS topped IM origin because superman logo was already way more popular than iron man. Superman already had a huge fanbase and several movies while iron man was getting a live action movie adaption for the first time. Same with Batman, already a huge character before movie.

Once marvel developed interest in iron man, he crapped on both Batman and superman.

Ironman 3 made more than Batman 3.

Sorry, but marvel isn't dc that is why I like them. Dc is a step down and it is obvious. Dc keeps shoving the same old heroes whereas marvel is bringing newer heroes into the mainstream.

What the heck are you talking about quan? Also hasn't Captain Marvel( I don't care about legal issues that's his name) received a lot of exposure over the past 3 years? Besides why would DC put Billy on the big screen when they haven't properly established their title characters?

They don't need to establish anything as the general public knows who they are. Marvel didn't start out with the Avengers but have firmly established Ironman, Thor, and Captain America as well. Dc is doing what it has done in the past focusing on just a few. The only reason they are attempting this is due to marvels success.

MOS2 will have the novelty effect going for ie: Superman and Batman on the big screen for the first time ever. This is going to be huge.

Avengers is in a tough battle in 2015 to be number 1. Superman/Batman, Star Wars 7 and the final Hunger Games film will all challenge it.

Considering the last well received Superman movie was made back in 1980 and the Nolan trilogy is finished, I'd say that yeah Superman and Batman both needed to be firmly established in DC's movie continuity. Sure Avengers might seem like a no brainer now but putting B list superheroes in the spotlight and expecting success was a hell of a risk.

That's the problem with Warner Bros, their inability to take risks to promote their DC properties.

A reason DC fans need to thank marvel ~ marvel's success has finally motivated DC execs to get off their asses and invest in their characters.

This DC/Marvel competition is good for fans of both because it forces the companies to put out their best product. I hope MoS 2 and Avengers 2 are great movies.

Its understandable why they would be cautious after the hole Green Lantern thing.

DC have to establish a canon movie verse for all the characters to be in first and in order to do so they need alluring characters to get butts in seats. Marvel seriously lucked out with Ironman.

Well Marvel should definitely step it up with their small screen endeavors.

WB has taken risks with Green Lantern and with Watchmen. And other failed projects too.

Watchmen was actually really good though so it's financial failure was disappointing and probably made WB left wondering what it is they're doing wrong.

Watchmen is one of the best films based on a comic/GN. The marketing for that film was abysmal though, especially considering it's not an IP that was already well known like Superman, Spider-Man, the Hulk etc.

It wasn't much of a failure though, as it made money. Just not a whole lot of it.

Quanchi likes to go on about ' how marvel is better.' But reality is that Marvel is only ahead in the movie game for now. DC has the Nolan trilogy which is better than anything Marvel has ever put out.

DC has better tv shows, cartoons. DC direct-to-video films are far superior. DC has the better lineup of books. I would give Marvel the slight edge in video game for now, because they have had more success in that department longer.

I don't care who is doing better from a financial standpoint, as "making more money" isn't a factor in me liking a film or franchise.

I do think it's great that many comic films are pulling in loads of cash as it means the studios will be more inclined to give us grander comic-based films going forward. ie the success of the prior films lead us to The Avengers being made.

The DC animated films do shit all over the Marvel ones, imo. ie Batman: Under The Red Hood

Yeah I don't really care either. I just want quality films. No more Green lanterns and FF4 anymore.

If you're going to take the time to reply to posts, at least have the decency to actually respond to what's in them.

And stop acting like Iron Man came out in some sort of vacuum. FFS I know you thrive on arguments, but that doesn't mean you have to make stupid ones.

Considering the last well received Superman movie was made back in 1980 and the Nolan trilogy is finished, I'd say that yeah Superman and Batman both needed to be firmly established in DC's movie continuity. Sure Avengers might seem like a no brainer now but putting B list superheroes in the spotlight and expecting success was a hell of a risk. People are aware of Superman and there have been plenty of Superman films since 1980. No, they didn't need to be established again as most people know who they are and don't need to start from the ground up.

Quanchi likes to go on about ' how marvel is better.' But reality is that Marvel is only ahead in the movie game for now. DC has the Nolan trilogy which is better than anything Marvel has ever put out.

DC has better tv shows, cartoons. DC direct-to-video films are far superior. DC has the better lineup of books. I would give Marvel the slight edge in video game for now, because they have had more success in that department longer. That is just your opinion. Avengers is better than any Batman film IMO. It made more money which is a fact than any Batman film.

I disagree but that isn't where the money is it is in the cinematic films which hit the theatre.

Ironman and other characters were established in a concerted effort to gain steam. They did as Ironman 3 and Thor 2 both shattered their previous bests.

Dc is trying to copy marvels winning formula. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

If DC wanted a composite movie universe where all of their characters can be in the same movie then yes, DC needs to start from the ground up. Besides Marvel pretty much did the same thing with the Hulk movie so I'm not seeing why its a problem. Also what does this have to do with Captain Marvel?

Marvel threw another Hulk actor in and just kept things going from the second film. No, dc didn't when it comes to Batman they could just continue things from the Nolan films but they'd rather start over again.

Uh...at the most "the Incredible Hulk" was a loose continuation of Ang Lee's Hulk so yeah Marvel did the same thing. Not when both Christopher Nolan and Christian Bale are done with it so once again Batman has to be redone.

Let me rephrase...what does you're Marvel fan-boying have to do with Shazam? Seems to me you just went out of your way to take a shot at DC.

It has Banner in South America, that's about it. I'm not a copyright-buff but I'm pretty sure DC can't just use Nolan's Batman in an adaptation w/o his permission.

So you admit to picking on DC for no reason right?

The hell is wrong with you, keep making these absurd claims in some futile manner to crap on DC. Marvel has also sold rights to several of their characters for live action movie purposes; are they in turn "stupid"?

-Sony: Spider-Man and Ghost Rider (and all related villains, characters, etc.)

-Fox: X-Men, Daredevil, and the Fantastic Four (and all related villains, characters, etc.)

-Marvel Studios/Disney: Isn't allowed to talk of "mutants" in their films, else they get slapped with a copy-write lawsuit.

While Warner Bros owns the vast majority of DC characters, which means they could potentially mix and match any number of heroes without legal issues.

You hate DC, fine; you're free to do so. Just stop making these asinine claims that keep exploding back in your face.

You didn't answer the question, you dodged and danced. Repeat: Is Marvel "stupid" like DC because they sold the movie rights to characters?

Yeah, I just told you this, so you're welcome. They're also working on combining the characters now, hence all the talk of a Superman/Batman flick and a JLA, genius,

Your point is that you hate DC and use an asinine double-standard to try and talk shit. Do yourself a favor, hate DC privately and stop making claims that make you look like a complete imbecile.

So you're using a double-standard, as propriety rights over a given length of time(esp if certain deadlines aren't met, see that ashcan FF film as an example) works for both DC and Marvel. Using double-standards just makes you look like an ass.

Avengers came out in 2012, a JL film is slated for 2015-16. Yeah "light years" indeed.

No, marvel has already given plenty of heroes their own solo movies as well as a Guardians of the Galaxy movie on the way. Dc rebooted Superman and here comes another Batman.

And now moving on to an entirely different point. But who says that's the only way of making a great multi-hero comic movie? You're effectively saying that the JL film will suck and it's just some ideas on paper right now.

So? See above.

You are. You outright claimed DC was stupid for selling rights to their characters in film; when it was shown Marvel did the same thing, you made BS excuses.

If less than 5 years is "hilarity", sure. Batman trilogy and MoS both did very well at the box office, don't see anything idiotic about that.

The Shazam character was more interesting including the "lore" and history.


I agree with Quan that they squandered a potentially excellent foray.




Wait, they didn't. There can still be more Shazam flicks.


I think Shazam is similar to Spider-man and it could do VERY well at the box-office as a live-action flick. Also, penis.

Stop lying. I teased you that you'd be hugging Zod's nuts since you were doing your usual DC-bashing before MoS came out. "Many others", another stupid lie. Going to keep up the nonsense into 2014?

The whole thread was created in order to display once again why dc keeps repeating the mistakes of the past. They focus too much on Superman/Batman who are firmly established unlike marvel.

Once again what the phuck does this have to do Captain Marvel being in a movie. He already has an animated movie and it was pretty cool IMO.

Besides even though Marvel's doing well, I give most credit to RDJ and Joss Whedon for that. Because had the Marvel cinematic universe started with something like Thor or Captain America I doubt it would've gotten as far as it did.

With Captain America it would've worked, Flash foward a couple years and then bring in Iron Man and so on.

Are you high?

Nolan's Batman has had a huge influence on making the superhero movie genre as big as it is today. So it's a good job Nolan rebooted Batman. But that world was too realistic for a future Justice League film, hence the need to reboot the character for his first superhero crossover.

Superman was messed up by Singer a few years back. You can't just leave your prime superhero in the toilet like that, hence the need to reboot that franchise which Synder has made a box office smash again.

Now they're finally doing their first superhero crossover (which has been in the works by WB for many many years now. They were planning this long before The Avengers came out). And they're introducing new heroes as well- Wonder Woman for one.

And stop pretending WB has done nothing else. There's been Watchmen, Constantine and Green Lantern. That's just some of what they've given us on the big screen. On TV we have Green Arrow and the Flash.

And let's face it, the real reason Marvel studios have worked so hard to get their "lesser known" heroes in the public eye is because those were the ones they had the movie rights too.

If they had the movie rights to Spider-Man and Wolverine, then I can guarantee that's what they would have been concentrating on the most over the last 10+ years.

Now they are rebooting Batman and here comes more crap just like Man of Steel.

Watchmen was boring and Green Lantern is practically unwatchable. Constantine wasn't bad but it isn't going to be brought into a shared dc universe.

Speculative bs. You're just an angry dc fanboy. Sit and stew.

But you said previously that the Nolan-verse was its own isolated thing. Make up your mind already.

Also just to go back to the original topic of this weird thread, exactly why are you so keen on a Captain Marvel flick when you haven't shown any love for DC as of late?

The original shazam movie had private investors involved , the total was over 300 million. Shazam actually had better financial backing then the superman movie, whatever happened to the backing I have no idea.

I agree with you Quanchi its all about superman and batman. In the marvel universe the spotlight is more evenly shared, I think this is the reason marvel gets more of a variety of fans where D.C. caters to the much younger teenagers and young adults. And I don't want to hear this is untrue because my bro own's 3 movie theaters.

More funding doesn't necessarily mean better movie as we saw with Superman Returns. Also what's exactly the matter with DC presenting its title characters first. I honestly doubt Shazam would've done well if it came out so early anyway.

As for Marvel doing better with their lesser known characters, yeah I can say they've done a phenomenal job introducing their B-list superheroes: I think Iron Man is A-list now because of it. However lets not forget that their hand was force considering their top superheroes like X-men and Spider-man were owned by other companies which pushed them to making their lesser known heroes more attractive to the general public.
