Imagine if DC focused on releasing its animated films with full theatrical releases instead of their live action flops. Their animated films have been consistently excellent with much smaller budgets. I'm sure they could turn things around and make some very good money off of doing that rather than spending 100's of millions on movies that maybe break even. I'm sure the margins would be much larger.
Warner Brothers are run by terrible clueless executives. These executives needs to go back to business school. Their main focus is to make quick profits without any long term vision for the company (opposite to Disney/Marvel), ironically instead of making money they always lose money on each projects. That’s what happens when you put executives who’s main mission is to only make the clueless investors happy and their bonuses. I don’t think this James Gunn reboot won’t work. Fans building up interest and connections with these new actors will take 10 years…I don’t think Warner Brothers executives have that patience.
Great stuff!!!!! Great research and insight into what could have been through the years!!!!! I totally can’t understand why DC can’t get it together and put together a strong universe!!?!?! Hopefully the reboot can give us DC fans the DC universe we want and need!!!!! Keep up the great work guys!!!!! Love the content!!!
I think you forgot to mention Justice League Dark, which Del Toro was also involved in. They even had Doug Liman (The Bourne Identity series) attached as Director at one point after Del Toro got too busy to do it…kind of like he & Ron Perlman were with Hellboy 3.
Not a Movie But Based On a DC Imprint Title Global Frequency cancelled 2x to be exact by The WB and FOX Broacasting Company would've loved to see Warner Bros go through with It
I've been thinking again, that Warner Bros should sell it's property/ DC characters that they don't use and give it to the hands of Sony. Not only it could help expand the DC universe but also usher a new era of Non-canon crossovers with marvel. I hate the direction DC and Warner bros is going with the reset. But here's how they could expand it. 1. Sell anti-heroes and villains such as (black spider, clay face, batman earth 43 and Lobo) and 2. For heroes they can add animation for teen titans, and take the worst show Gotham knights and sell the rights of Robin and Batgirl. Sony can rinse and repeat their own formula and make the best out of small things they have and put it on the big screen. If anybody should be worthy of expanding the universe it's Sony. P.S I would definitely go for a Robin film set in the Christopher Nolan's universe.
