The DCEU ends not with a bang, but a wimper.

10 years after Zod’s snapped neck, Martha, “some kinda Suicide Squad”, CGI moustache, rennouncing your wish, the hiearchy of power changing, and Speed Force PS1 graphics, the DC Extended Universe finally comes to a close. And it ends the same way it started - with a Rotten score.

Looking back at all this wasted potential, what would you have done differently with the DCEU, and what are your hopes for James Gunn’s DC Universe?

paddirn,

I’m just confused at what the continuity is now. So with Aquaman 2, that’s the last of the old stuff and now it’s being rebooted with Gunn as DC’s Kevin Feige-esque person in charge? I feel like he’s been in that roll for over a year now, yet everything that’s been released is all part of the old continuity and was going to get phased out, so what was the point of all that then? Releasing stuff for a universe that’s getting scrapped (though will likely show up in 5-10 years in some crisis on infinity earths story or something).

It takes years for movies to be made… have patience.

angrystego,

Movie making and planning takes a lot of time and money. It’s done in advance. You can’t just stop everything that’s been in production from releasing.

UnaSolaEstrellaLibre,

I hate WB with a passion with how they fumbled the DCEU. What a shitshow.

CitizenKong,

Hey, it’s not as if they could have involved the people who did the animated series or the Arrowverse TV series, both of which have been very successful.

DC anything is worthless garbage.

GeoGio7,

Is it me, or he seems very high in the photo? Like a full deluxe package of weed after party, high.

That money could have saved starving refugees.

I was hoping it would be better than this. Aquaman 1 was not masterpiece but with James Wan flavor it was at least interesting.

As long as Jason can continue to travel around the world in his jet, everything will be good. Right? Right??

Nomecks,

Any hope for DC died with Heath Ledger
