Seconded. I'm much more of a lurker here than a poster, but it does make for exhausting reading.

Its in the Hideo Kojima favorite movie topic. someone posted it there so i just copied it from there.
I actually like the BvS fight with Doomsday even if his design is hideous. It was choreographed and executed well on how gods would fight each other. It also showed Diana being a bad ass which is the complete opposite of JL where she was thrown around like a rag doll.
Damn, that's crazy about joker becoming the number 1 r-rated movie. Didn't know it was blowing up to that degree. Glad that it's doing so well despite of the media circus. Hell, the fraught pearl clutching probably drove more people to see the movie lmao.
I wonder what could dethrone joker now? Deadpool 3? It'd have to be something close to a billion right? Maybe dune?
It's not gonna be dune is it brehs 😞

Pfffft Of course it won't be Dune.
My best guess is Deadpool 3... especially if they find a way to wrap him up in the MCU. Other than that, I can't think of anything else.

The Batman will likely hit a billion.
It won't be rated R
I wasn't going to say anything.
It's apparently going to be close w/ Maleficent. Around $18-19 million for both of them.
Joker is going to roll past $800 million. What a fucking run.

Deadpool 3 ft. zombie Iron Man. Re-released a few months later to get it across that $1 billion mark because uncle feigu can't help himself.
I pray to Leo Sagittarius that we never get someone like him to run things for DC films. I gratefully accept the bad movies that we occasionally get if it means that there are fewer bland films that almost everyone is tricked into liking.
I agree. DC's own worse enemy has been WB itself. But even they look to have realized they don't need to copy anyone and they really have embraced the film-maker driven approach they mentioned so many years ago. It doesn't need to be producer driven.
The only thing I want is to have a connected universe. They don't need to meet up and crossover in every movie. They don't need to reference everyone either. Having all these superheroes siloed into their own universe just doesn't work anymore. I just want to be sure Reeve's Batman and whoever plays Superman is on screen together at some point.
But if they want to keep everything separate again, then I'm done. They can't put it back in the box now and expect people to be happy with it.
I don't think WB is done with the interconnected universe. If Reeve's Batman does a billion and J.J. Abram's Superman does equally well then it's a certainty that we are getting a new Batman/Superman movie within the next decade. It has too much box office potential and the average moviegoer would have already forgotten Batman v Superman by then.
I hope so. I really do. It's why I've been so tepid when discussing Reeve's Batman because I just don't know what to expect. I don't know how WB is going to position the film. But I'm hoping for the best.
I just watched the Apes trilogy (never seen the last one) and it was great. Really enjoyed the last one too. So, we'll see.
I bet my account that there won't be a Justice League film throughout the 2020s.
(edit: should clarify that a Justice League film with supes, bat, and ww in the roster, anything else (e.g. International, Dark) doesn't count)

I'll predict not only will there be a Justice League film
There will also be a standalone one like the joker
I think we'll see a Justice League film within the next 5 years. Considering how much money Joker made and how DC Superhero films have been WB's biggest moneymaking franchise every year, there's no way we won't see a decent amount of projects greenlighted heading towards a potential team-up film. Whether it'll actually consist of the traditional league, who knows? But I wouldn't be surprised if at the very least we'd see Flash, Wonder Woman, Shazam, Aquaman, and Batman make up the majority of the roster.
Or you know, they could just release a certain cut of a certain film and it'd probably make a lot of money that way if WB had a decent marketing strategy :p

I'll believe it when I see it. It's taken damn near 3 years for Reeves to start production.
I hope y'all are right though.

We will get a JL film (with the supes, bat, ww in it), im just saying it won't happen in the 2020s.
It makes sense to use Flash to reset stuff but we'll see. It would be stupid of DC to not have another JL. As someone said their DC movies are their biggest moneymakers. After Fantastic Beasts 2 didnt do to well, they're probably taking some time to work on it again.
I like connected universes and the masses seem to as well. Don't know why certain people here are so against it. They just need to do it well. The Avengers movies and Civil War are just straight up fun to watch except Ultron of course.
Ive even been thinking that Shazam 2 might need a known hero or something to elevate it to the masses.

Speaking of, the way Shazam let you know it was in the DCEU was nice and organic without going nuts. It's proof you can connect them and let the directors do what they want.
My second waifu. Raptor took Milana Vayntrub from me
Yeah this is what I'm thinking
and I'll go further than that
Neither Pattinson, Gal, Momoa, and maybe not even Ezra will be in it
Its on the way to a billy. I never thought it would do this well, I said in the box office thread last week that I thought 600m would be the ceiling and that would of been fantastic.
Maybe it's because I recently marathoned all of Primal, but hear me out for an idea of an R Rated DC villain movie....
Javier Bardem starts as... Vandal Savage, an epic spanning the entirety of human history.

Last I heard, he actually has an idea and seems willing to jump on it if given the opportunity. Had a couple phone calls, including one with Manganiello. Studio just hasn't followed up on it.
Sounds similar to a pitch of another once far-fetched idea that turned out in spades.
I think the biggest difference is a Deathstroke film could tie into whatever Reeves is doing. So I imagine no matter how good the pitch could have been, I think they're in a holding pattern on almost all things Batman related until Reeves lays the foundation.
If y'all are at all curious check out watchmen on HBO, second episode just dropped. Jeremy Irons and his scenes are just 👌
Superman TV show... Guess we aren't seeing Supes in any movies for the next 5 years at least.
I mean, they're planning a Supergirl movie and Supergirl will still be on for the foreseeable future lol
I thought this Arrowverse thing will be ending soon. I figure Flash, Legend and Supergirl have at least another 1 or 2 seasons left. I love the shows but boy am I waiting for them to end. How many more are they gonna add?
I don't like WB benching Superman but i'm willing to wait for them to show their hands. Considering how things are for them now, It will be a bad idea if they dont do anything with Supes.
I hope the JJ Abrams rumors are true.

It's hard to say with how... weird the movies have been
We've seen Cyborg on TV since Justice League
The Flash... existed for a bit.
Batman/Bruce Wayne was technically part of Gotham and is on Titans.
His 85th anniversary will probably be when they announce the next reboot, if they ever plan to reintroduce him into the films. Honestly I'm fine with it. Only the diehards thought there was a chance in hell of Cavill coming back and this will at least keep him in the public eye. Hopefully the next try will be better.
