Fix DCEU

ok, the executives at Warner Bros. gives you full power to fix the DCEU. How would you turn it around?

1. Get directors that knows the characters. Directors that read more than just the Dark Knight graphic novel

2. See number 1. Instead of directors, it’s writers. Competent writers.

3. Don’t call the JL the big seven and just have 6 characters.

4. Don’t copy Marvel’s comedic route. Make your on staple.

5. Get good actors. Ex. Jesse was a shitty Luthor. Why Mark Strong weren’t chosen, I have no idea. Same with Ezra Miller as the Flash. The kid sucked as the Flash.

6. Give each characters their own movies before bringing them together. And don’t add stupid shit like Martha for god sake!

7. Bring in Morison and Geoff on board.

Salt the earth. Reboot the franchise. Too many shitty ideas have taken root and set a precedence that can't be escaped from. The garbage aesthetic, for example.

At this point, my initial response is to reboot the entire franchise and start over from square one.

That, or a Crisis on Infinite Earths-esque story line to remove and erase a lot of shit.

I was calling for a reboot after the tragedy that was BVS. But not many people wanted to take their head out of the sand. After Suicide Squad though it was becoming more obvious even to defenders of the DCEU.

According to some, there’s entirely different version of Suicide Squad out there. Don’t know how much it’s true. But it’s suppose to be way better than the one we got.

^ Must be the extended cut that they released on dvd/Blu-ray.

Make stand alone movies and not make a cinematic universe.
DC/Vertigo has a ****ton of great comics that i can get/pull a story from.

as for directors ,i'd hire these following guys:

Christopher Nolan
David Cronenberg
Alfonso Cuarón
Wachowski Bros
Olivier Megaton
Martin Scorsese/Brian de Palma

nothing its dead . let it stay did..
two options, sell all dc properties to disney..

2nd option a total and complete reboot by hiring better writers and directors.. have a plan.. don;t just announce something and keep in developmental hell. don't tell the whole f$cking story in the trailers.

also hire d list and f list actors/actresses

Restart from scratch and do not try playing catch-up with Marvel. I think one of the big problems with this universe was they were trying to build something up in half the time the MCU did it, but without the clear plan and leadership the MCU has in Kevin Feige. So, we ended up with things like BvS before we'd even gotten a proper solo Batman film.

The reason the MCU works is because they didn't rush it. I mean now they drop a couple movies a year, but it wasn't like that initially. They were ironing out the formula first. Taking their time. DC just skipped that and went HAM, and it blew up in their faces. Which irritates me, because if you look at the animated films, you know they can do it if they take the time to do it properly.

Aquaman will be the start of the DCEU 2.0. They should focus on making good films first and hire directors with proven track records and let them do their thing.

Start over. Write better stories, play to your characters strengths, i.e don't try and make Superman a Moody edge Lord. Don't rush anything, Marvel has 10 years on you, cranking out bull shit won't change that.

The execs stop butting in where they have no business and let the directors do their thing

They could borrow the reality stone from thanos and erase zack snyder and the rest from the past....

Why on Earth they gave it to him is beyond me. I mean as far back as interviews during Watchmen, he was talking about ideas like having Bruce raped in prison if he did a Batman movie. Obviously, that didn't actually end up in the film, but it should have been early warning signs about Snyder's vision.

It cannot be fixed.

Sell it to Disney (as Bruce already mentioned) or terminate it.

At this point its kinda phucked...even if they reboot it I just cant give a phuck about another Batman or Superman movie.

Same goes for further DC movies.....

So, we basically got the absolute turd of a film that was BvS because of nepotism?

That and the fact that the higher ups at WB's have no ****ing clue of what they are doing.
