Call me when they announce another Superman movie, or a Batman movie that’s connected to the rest of the DCEU
Now that's all said and done, which was the bigger disaster longterm?

Wonder Woman and Suicide Squad were made before Justice League. Also Suicide Squad is shit. I don't feel like looking it up but I'm sure Aquaman and Shazam were already far into production to cancel at that point, so I don't think JL's failure would get them canned. I would say Pattinson's Batman is going to be the first movie to really test if DCEU can be salvaged.

>whereas Disney could pump out a obi wan or Luke skywalker prequel film/ tv show and despite it probably being shit, would make them a shit ton of money.
Could they? Are you forgetting that Solo bombed or that the Obi Wan show has been delayed and most likely cancelled?
Samuel Nguyen
>Wonder Woman and Suicide Squad were made before Justice League
And both are having sequels. And so are Aquaman and Shazam. You've got nothing
Wyatt Powell
>The Batman
That movie is not connected to the DCEU.
This Wonder Woman sequel will be a real test.
If they can't get people interested in these characters enough to successfully make at least two profitable films with the same/similar actors, then they have failed and will never be able to do what Marvel did/is doing for each character.

Completely valid that solo was a bomb that hurt the prospect of future Star Wars movies, I just personally think man of steel, BVS and JL together make the studio more wary, especially with the financial risks being greater with WB
Oliver Rogers
>especially with the financial risks being greater with WB
WB isn't exactly a studio on the edge. They're owned by AT&T so they aren't hurting for cash

JL ruined an already underperforming franchise that had been underperforming since its inception.
TLJ ruined Star Wars. Motherfucking Star Wars. How do you fuck that up?
Lucas Powell
>Hate on the Force Awakens all you want, but it did a fine job setting up a new trilogy.
No it didn't. It set up nothing. Retards like you excuse shit writing and filmmaking from JJ just because you were too stupid to see through his shit and instead blame TLJ for not being the giant fanwank you expected.
>People shit on JJ for that but they really had no choice after TLJ.
And this is the next fallacy. TLJ actually set upo things, like Kylo Ren being the big bad. They could have worked with that. The Trevorrow script draft did. That your favourite director Abrams lacks the creativity to do anything other than bring back things from the OT is not Rian Johnson's fault.

Aquaman made 75 million more globally than the final film in the new SW trilogy. One of the craziest things I've heard in a long time
