I genuinely hope the DCEU fails.
WB has 0 (zero) respect for DC's source material, its fans, or the capeshit genre as a whole. They are threatening to single-handedly destroy the mainstream capeshit theatre Sony, Fox and the MCU spent nearly half a fucking decade molding from nothing. WB really has the audacity, the fucking balls, to blatantly steal the MCU's successful gimmick without none of the time consuming world building or character development. The worst part is, instead of properly copying the MCU, they take only the concept and rework the execution like a high school student switching around the wording in a essay he stole from some kid he jumped in the locker room.
The result is a Superman series without a Superman, riddled with plot holes, choppy dialogue, horrid pacing and hamfisted themes. Suicide Squad was an Avengers movie without any the investment in the characters the Phase 1 MCU had, what we've seen of Erza Flash makes Flash fans everywhere wish they just threw that budget at the CW show. Aquaman is a unironic metaphor for the entirety of the DCEU when compared to its comics counterpart, and the Wonder Woman movie genuinely looks like it'll be a 2 hours long snorefest in a year where two cosmic movies and Hugh Jackman's finale will drop.
WB and their puppet Snyder don't deserve to get away with this level of arrogance and dickholding. They are the needle held dangerously close to this bubble that is this cape movie boon.
