Aquaman trailer and some sort of Shazam reveal make sense. They'll probably want to get some positive hype using Wonder Woman. The only thing that sounds iffy is Reeves and Affleck. I sort of hope it's not true, I don't really want Affleck to continue as Batman, I want a younger recast. That being said I do want news about Reeves's Batman.

Warner Bros has always made great Comic Con impressions and build up the hype year after year, yet it doesn't save the quality of their movies.

@XKnight -

that's right, dcu always "win" comic con, building mega hype for their films, I remember when the teaser for bvs came out, the whole internet when BatShitCrazy, even a lot of ppl said that 'Civil War' had no chance at the box office
and now we know know how that turned out.

we all want good movies, wonder woman was ok and by no means was bad at all but that's the only movie in the dcu that's watchable
hopefully shazam, aquaman and the batman
bring something Good, I'm not even expecting something
'new to the table'
I just want something good.

@Equivocal -

but to be completely honest....

I'm not even remotely hype for any of those movies right now
maybe when we see the trailers I might change my opinion
as of now...

nope.

@XKnight - It doesn't help that the quality of films like "Suicide Squad" and "Justice League" is drastically reduced by unnecessary reshoots. If they would stop with that garbage, they would be fine.

I'm just glad Ray Fisher won't be there, that #BORGLife thing ain't happening.

@Kurne - Leave ray fisher alone. He was the only actor in justice league that was captivating. (maybe cavill too)

RageDriver2401 - 6/5/2018, 3:42 AM
@Kurne - amen. DCEU Cyborg is like their equivalent of Hawkeye. You like him, but not enough to go watch his movie. Also, Ray Fisher might be a decent guy, but he kisses way too much Snyder-ass.

@FunkyCipher - Cavill deserves a chance to portray the full of life, charming version of Superman, now that Snyder is gone.
CaptainElrond
CaptainElrond - 6/5/2018, 3:45 AM
@RageDriver2401 - You know its funny i support a reboot, but that would also mean letting go of cavill (i'm all in)

However he could older supes or another supes in a infinite crisis storyline.
RageDriver2401
RageDriver2401 - 6/5/2018, 3:53 AM
@FunkyCipher - same here. I think a reboot would be a good idea, the only problem is it would mean losing Cavill and Gadot.

Cavill especially looks great as Superman (the MoS version, not post-MoS).

There is no Man of Steel 2.
Superman? Fingers crossed an announcement is coming.

@FunkyCipher - IF they hard reboot the DC Films Cinematic Universe in the next year or so, and it inevitably fails, he should come back as Rebirth Superman.

Of course, rebooting the DC Films Cinematic Universe would be a terrible idea anyway. You only have two outright hated films (Trailer Park's “Suicide Squad” and Frankenstein's monster “Justice League”) and people even have things they like about THEM. Rebooting at this point would be a waste of time and money, and would cause more problems than it would solve.

@BlackBeltJones - They could still announce them, then s**t on it months later or after another shakeup because another movie failed.

PINOYFAN - 6/5/2018, 3:22 AM
To be honest, I couldn't care less. I'm cool with Aquaman but Shazam and Wonder Woman doesn't interest me. Maybe if they announce Shazam trilogy and the next movies on it will be Black Adam with The Rock and Shazam vs. Black Adam and if they set WW in the present I'll be freaking pump. The only thing that will make me interested with WW set in the past will be if it's a JSA movie with her as a member during WWII.

This company is intent on driving this IP into the ground. They are now trying to revive a dead brand. There is no other way aside from returning to the Dark Knight Trilogy and Man of Steel as a foundation for future films. Following that aesthetic is the ONLY thing that brought them success in the past and is the ONLY hing that will give them success in the future.

That ship has already sailed. WB had its chance to do that and I would have supported it
but BvS, Wonder Woman, Suicide Squad and Justice League happened. You can't just
throw Christian Bales Batman in there and say, MoS and (I suppose) Wonder Woman
happened,but ignore everything else including Wonder Woman's intro to the DCEU,
her large role in Justice League, and the same for Aquaman while saying those characters
upcoming films are still part of the canon.

It's over. Nolan doesn't want it to happen and WB will never risk a relationship that is still
working for them with Dunkirk, and could someday pay off in other projects like an
Inception 2.

Bale would never do it if Nolan isn't behind the project.
Forthas
Forthas - 6/5/2018, 3:41 AM
@FunkyCipher - Oh right just look at ALL of that success that they have had thus far.


Demba
Demba - 6/5/2018, 3:42 AM
@Forthas - I don’t think it’s the only way they can achieve success again. They have good characters to build a universe around, what they need are good films, with good scripts, good directors, who will take the heart and essence of these characters and their respective worlds and bring them to the screen. Setting a universal tone for all movies won’t work if they constantly change it on the reaction the GA has to other films ( ie justice league and avengers/mcu films)neither will releasing a film reactively (Suicide Squad). They need a plan, and to set goals. Wonder Woman is a perfect example. Hopefully Shazam and Aquaman will be too.

@Forthas - I agree it needs a reboot, just don't reboot the dark knight saga.
PINOYFAN
PINOYFAN - 6/5/2018, 3:44 AM
@Forthas - As much as l likethat idea (imagine TDK MoS and WW) , TDKR happened and the movies that happened after MOS also did plus Bale isn't into it.
Forthas
Forthas - 6/5/2018, 3:50 AM
@WarnerBrother -

Wait!

"WB had its chance to do that and I would have supported it"

So if it was a good idea then, why is it not a good idea now?

You CAN just throw the Christian Bale Batman in there. That is EXACTLY what is being done with the Terminator films. They are ignoring EVERY single film after Terminator 3 and I don't see fans organizing against the idea. Linda Hamilton will reprise the role despite the fact two other actresses have already portrayed her.

I don't think Wonder Woman should be a part of that reboot.

"Nolan doesn't want it to happen"
Not true, Nolan advocated for a spinoff film of his iteration of Catwoman which WB ignored. Show me a quote in which he states he is opposed to it.

https://www.theguardian.com/film/2012/jul/12/anne-hathaway-dark-knight-rises

"Bale would never do it if Nolan isn't behind the project."
This is not true. bale is interested in a good film, that was his only requirement. We don't know what he would have done since WB never approached him about it.

https://screenrant.com/batman-christian-bale-superman-justice-league/

Show me a quote from Bale where he states he would never do it unless Nolan was behind it.
Forthas
Forthas - 6/5/2018, 3:57 AM
@Demba - OK it is not the ONLY way...but it is the fastest and proven way to do it. I agree with everything you wrote. However the problem was the overreaction to the general audience...WHICH IS WHERE EVERYTHING WENT SOUTH! What I am suggesting is gong back to that point and get back on the right track. The obvious next film after Man of Steel should have been Man of Steel 2, not a unsubtle Batman film. In addition following the Nolan aesthetic makes it distinct from other super hero films...and in my opinion films that followed that aesthetic are batting four for four.
