    If there's one other thing James Gunn can learn from both the DCEU and more recent MCU, is that each of your films can have the director's just have there own creative vision and each film and show to feel different and break the over saturated comic book formula. While also having story first and connections second. I know that's a lot but however I do have hope in James Gunn.

    Chris I’ll admit, The DCEU's ending left many fans, including myself, feeling somewhat disappointed. While it had its standout moments with blue beetle & man of steel, the overall execution fell short of expectations. However, I share your hope that the new DCU will learn from past mistakes and strive for greater success. It's an opportunity to deliver a more cohesive and satisfying cinematic universe that truly captures the essence of these iconic characters. But regardless, I have high hopes the new dcu will be what us fans have been waiting for.

    Blame fans: - The early movies made money, but fans rejected the project outright because it was not as "fun" as the MCU. Meaning too much drama, no humor, and not "sweet." - The eight straight Hamada flops after 2018 was an attempt to please those fans. Meaning no drama, focused comedy, and "sweet." Where'd the fans go for Hamada? The failure of the DCEU was always on you. From wanting a BvS movie to later complaining that it was too early, from liking Josstice League to later hating it, to not even showing up for Hamada's crap... it is all on you.

    And that’s the point why fans rejected the project outright for good reason. BVS is a complete mess and doing it so early is a death sentence. From cramming so many storylines like the Knightmare, Death of Superman, a little bit of Dark Knight returns, Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor, setting up the Justice League so rushed, unnecessary slow motion and drama, unnecessary plot points like Lois Lane’s part, and the color grating being too dark. And you wonder why this movie ended up alienating casual fans and audiences. If Zack or WB had taken the time to give each of the characters their solo movies and build up their universe properly like how Marvel did it, then the general consensus wouldn’t be complaining, but here we are.

    @@tonymata8070 I don't agree. In my opinion, while it wasn't a bad movie by any means, for a DCEU movie, Zack Snyder had no idea how to write superman, though it was not all his fault, he was only the co-writer. The entire world treated him like an alien and he was even interrogated by Lois Lane and put him in cuffs. No other interpretation would do that. I don't think Zack Snyder understood the character of Superman. Why would they put him in cuffs? He's a superhero. And that's how you treat him? They completely dehumanized Superman. He may be an alien, but in all other interpretations, he's had a human side to him, where people looked up to him as their hero, but there's literally a line that says "the alien, we're calling him superman" like wtf. That is not how you portray superman. Don't get me wrong, I think Henry Cavill is a fine actor, I really liked him as Sherlock but as Superman, not so much. I liked his suit but that was about it. I did not like his version. In my opinion, the weakest portrayal, writing wise. And that's coming from someone who stopped watching the DCEU after Wonder Woman came out as that was the only good one.

    The pointless DCEU, which was a reward to how the fans reacted early. It is funny to hear how fans were creaming their pants over BvS, but afterwards complained that it was too soon and that "rushing" the DCEU was the problem. Make up your minds. No, the problem was that Nolan and Snyder did NOT set out to create a shared universe in the style of the MCU, but baby-fans rejected the project. WB panicked, butchered theatrical cuts, refused the time necessary for character developments before a JL movie (of which they butchered and made "sweet"), and then enlisted Hamada to deliver eight straight MCU comedy-clone flops. Thanks fans! Blame yourselves. Now you all whine about the MCU being too sweet and not serious enough. The lot of you have no idea what you want.

    Someone correct me if I’m wrong but I believe it was during the dawn of the justice league special on the CW where they announced the slate of the DCEU and then they had the directors do a panel at comic con to further discuss their plans and I was so excited. Although I didn’t hate BvS, I was really excited for the future of this new universe especially with the setup of Darkseid

    Well said !!! My high was definitely seeing Zack get his movie out so it's fitting my low was how WB treated Zack and especially Henry Cavill. If the DCEU fans don't show up for Gunn's DCU, you will be making this video again. But a lot sooner than 10 years. though.

    Damn, I still remember seeing Man of Steel in theaters back in 2013. I was 16 and a Sophomore in high school. Now I’m 26, graduated, and married and recently saw Aquaman The Lost Kingdom with my wife. It was a very bumpy ride so I’m glad James Gunn is rebooting the DCU. I trust he’ll make it something amazing. Because the DCEU just became a hot mess.

  • @ThompsonBrosStudios

    You know, the reboot announcement caused a lot of issues, but maybe also saved future DC, because they either had to announce it early and take the loss on the last 5 movies or not announce it and essentially let Gunn take the fall for all of that essentially ruining any chance of ever getting to his own universe, by then people would not have been interested if they thought he was behind the last few movies, heck even now people are against him and blame him for some of them. But at least now people MIGHT have something to look forward to.

    @@BrandonTBlackwell I'm not talking current DCEU dude, that was already on it's way down the drain. What I mean is, specifically FUTURE DCU projects would likely have never even been given the chance if those in charge (Gunn and Safran) were directly associated with the past DCEU ones. Obviously it's been super detrimental, but hopefully only in the short term. It's not like they weren't going to hire Gunn, and it's also not like they were going to try and keep it secret somehow, they weren't going to say, hey Gunn, come back in a five years so we can finish tanking our franchise before we bring you on. Frankly I'm surprised they even released anything after the announcement, no idea why they didn't just make the call to cut their losses early. THAT is what really screwed them over. They should have taken every tax write off they could get and simple start over.

    James Gunn should’ve ended the DCEU by giving it an actual ending. Here’s how I would’ve ended it. Give Wonder Woman, Shazam, Aquaman, Suicide Squad, and Blue Beetle their own trilogies. And in Shazam 3, have Black Adam be the villain and to make Dwayne Johnson happy, have Superman be in that movie as well. And for fun put Blue Beetle in there, too. Then have a big Justice League movie, more likely to be a two parter, with Darkseid be a big part and doing the Crisis on Infinite Earth story line.

    This reminds me of game developers starting out fresh. Whether it's diving into filmmaking or game creation, if you leap into a big project without proper groundwork, things can quickly go wrong. The situation in the dceu is that they rushed without establishing the characters, world, or storyline properly. It's like new game developers attempting to make a triple a game without the essential knowledge. It's all about laying the groundwork first to create something solid.

    The two things I hated most in BVS were Jesse Eisenberg as Lex and the lackluster design of Doomsday. I remember loving Batman's warehouse fight and wished we could've gotten a film with more of that. Also it's wild that we got a DC cinematic universe where Batman and Joker didn't even fight each other on screen. Really hope Gunn can give us a more cohesive cinematic universe. I'm cautiously optimistic

    You hit the nail on the head with WB's reactionary nature. That's what derailed the DCEU before it ever really had a chance to get going. Sadly, this isn't new for WB (or WBD now). They have a history of interfering with productions as far back as Superman 2. It's crazy to think if the studio just got out of its own way, where the DCEU might be today. That said, this was a really fun retrospective of a big old mixed bag of movies. If nothing else, there are some real gems in this universe that I'll happily revisit throughout the years.

    Rest in peace DCEU. I hope the DCU will not face the same mistakes that the DCEU have. There is a lot of potential with the DCEU but sadly it ended too soon and it's for the best. It started strong and it ended so weak. When I was a kid watching Man of Steel, it makes me interested in watching comic book movies. At first after watching the movie I thought it's just gotta be like a trilogy where it's only Superman which I didn't realize it's their starting point in creating the cinematic universe. Henry Cavill's iteration of Superman is one of the things I will never forget about the DCEU.

Plus I remember seeing Jared Lego’s joker for the first time and getting super excited because I lived the dark knight. However I also remember hating BvS even as a preteen but still holding out hope to get to the two justice league movies. 10 years later, half of those films didn’t even go into production and we only got one justice league film where we were promised two! All in all if I told 12 year old me that it turned out this bad, I would have given up all hope and only watched Marvel.

    while the dceu for me is a good universe even with its flaws I find it to be a prequel to Gunns Chapter 1, and what Makes me really sad is when I saw Aquaman 2 in theaters knowing it was the last film of the dceu it was by far one of the best visually looking films we have had on pair with ZSJL, and ofc Blue Beetle especially that mature storytelling of Carapax's life, sadly I grew up with this universe starting from 2013 when I was 12 to right now being 22 I love this universe and I will go back and watch them time and time again, 🥲and most of my film reviews of this series is around the 6-10 marking average (that includes THE FLASH, its one of the very few films u can watch the film while working out), but as of right now Im skeptical but hopeful in Gunns Superman Legacy film but im intrigued to see where it goes (especially if all things go well we can finally have that Swamp Thing movie) 🤔
