Somewhat related: Westworld and all the other major HBO/Discovery streaming shows that were cut are going to be on Roku's new ad-supported streaming service and Tubi. Everything "major" that gets cut from Hbo Max/Discovery+/whatever the new merged service will be called is going to end up on those two places.

I want a DickBats and Damien movie so bad, but I also in no way, shape, form, or concept want it to happen right now with this current WB/DC situation. I think I would literally pay money to prevent it from happening.

Madkal posted:edit: Thinking about it they need to make a Grayson movie like Spiderverse/No Way Home which features Teen Titans Go Robin, Batman and Robin's Robin, Batman TAS's Robin, Batman 65's Robin, original Teen Titan's cartoon Robin, Titans Live Action's Robin/Nightwing etc. You get a taste of this in Teen Tians Go! vs. Teen Titans. Also we at least know for sure that Teen Titans Robin isn't Jason Todd from that Red X episode where Beast Boy pulls down the conspiracy theory chart. theironjef fucked around with this message at 22:18 on Jan 31, 2023 |

Most of this DC stuff sounds pretty bad to me. If they are introducing Damien I hope it means that all the other Batfam characters are already established. Taking the worst version of Supergirl and making a movie about her is bleh. Also lol at saying the Flash is the greatest superhero movie ever. Yeah I'm sure this thing that was supposed to be out what, two years ago, and has had extensive reshoots with a criminal lead actor is simply amazing.

Part of what he was saying had me curious, he went out of his way to call out Teen Titans Go! as an Elseworlds property, along with Joker 2, etc. Makes me wonder if stuff like Inhumans, MODOK, and the Netflix stuff wasn't more of an internal pain in the rear end at Marvel than we've previous heard, leaving him wanting to get ahead of it early.

This all, every bit of it, sounds phenomenal to me and even if it was mostly garbage it would be worth it for getting a Creature Commandos cartoon. Finally, Frankenstein will get his due.Codependent Poster posted:Most of this DC stuff sounds pretty bad to me.

Several projects were being developed before this reboot and they've been tweaked and retooled for this, so I anticipate the Nightwing movie that's been in development hell for a decade will go down this avenue to finally get made/used with some changes.

Yeah, it was a video of someone livestreaming the Gunn video and the transcript from the press event yesterday. This was the full quote from Safran: quote:I saw the movie. There are a lot of incredibly talented people in front of and behind the camera in that film, but that was not releasable. It happens sometimes. I think Zaslav and the team made a bold and courageous decision to cancel it, because it would have hurt DC and those people involved. I spoke to Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah last week — we’d love to be in business with all of them. Christina Hodson wrote it, and we’re already back in business with her. I think it was not an easy decision, but they made the right decision by shelving it. It would not have been able to compete in the theatrical marketplace. It was built for the small screen. And so again, you know, I think that it was not an easy decision, but they made the right decision. Batgirl is inevitably a character we’ll include in our story.

There was also some reporting that they were "teasing" Aquaman 3, but the transcript looks a lot less clear.quote:Gunn: Jason will not play two characters.

This is JUST directors, not even getting into cast or writers (or Ezra themselves . . .): October 2014: Flash formally announced April 2015: Lord and Miller possibly directing since they were writing the initial script October 2015: Seth Grahame-Smith announced to direct, leaves the following April June 2016: Rick Famuyiwa announced to direct, leaves the following October *largely on hold due to Fantastic Beasts filming* March 2018: John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein announced to direct, leave in July 2019 November 2019: Andy Muschietti announced to direct

The weird thing about the flash is Geoff johns and WB wanted it to be about Flashpoint from the get go. Famuyiwa Is the only one who wanted to go in a different direction and have it be more of a crime detective story where flash has to stop Captain Cold. If flashpoint must be adapted it should be like the third or fourth film not right out of the gate lmao.

Here's one thing I don't think I saw anyone else bring up I like the concept of "Elseworlds" Movies. I might actually love the concept. I have a great idea for a Batman movie, but it doesn't fit in with the larger DCU continuity. Well, OK, we like the story, and think it will be profitable, here's a sack with a big $ on it. Go make that movie and do your best. In the meantime, mainline Batman, aka the one we care about, is going to be over here pushing the overall narrative. And that's a great idea. Until, Elseworlds Batman is more popular or profitable than the mainline one. Then what are you going to do?

CzarChasm posted:Here's one thing I don't think I saw anyone else bring up As it stands now, I feel like the "Elseworlds" projects are the ones that they should be focusing on more but it's almost a disservice to label them that since it's almost a promise they won't 'lead anywhere' in the end. The MCU established the idea of a shared movie universe so firmly that they seem absolutely desperate to get the DC one set up and have done that at the expense of creating enjoyable movies. From a planning standpoint I would rather they invert the focus of a mainline continuity and the Elseworlds movies and just say, "yeah, we're going to release a lot of different movies that focus on being good movies about interesting characters. But we'll also eventually be coming out with a line of movies that cross over and build up to some cool comic events." By not labeling them Elseworlds specifically, they could also leave themselves open to incorporating whatever they wanted. If you want the Reeves Batman to be the Batman you use in your Justice League movie down the road, you can do that. But it seems to be much better for movie making to make something like The Batman the way it was done without any pretenses of tying in to a bigger universe or storyline. I realize this might be a little confusing for an audience that has been trained to connect everything into the same continuity and, probably more importantly, totally stalls out the massive hype engine that is at the heart of these franchises since you're not constantly promising how you're gonna smash your toys together next. I do trust Gunn to have good ideas about the direction to take things, but I kinda wish the plan was a little more taking a deep breath and thinking about things than this full steam ahead into dozens of projects. But that's probably why I am not a good businessman.

He was working on a New Gods film that Zaslav cancelled and I think there was another project as well. We don’t know what extent Jurgens and DeMatteis are involved. They may serve as creative consultants.
