Is This the DC Cinematic Universe's Future?

Are you betting against BvS? Are you so unsure all these things won't happen you gotta bet so low, as of 15 dollars? 1) BvS probably will make 1B, considering MOS made 660M (I think). 2) Probably not because RT sucks. 3) Probably won't, but it's a possibility, TDK and TDKR both made 1B if I'm not mistaken.

Am I the only one to say...WHERE IN THE LIVING HELL IS AQUAMAN!? IN WHAT WORLD DO WE GET SHAZAM BEFORE AQUAMAN! WHAT!? SCREWING US IN JL WAR WASNT ENOUGH!? THEY HAVE TO DO IT IN THE DCCU AS WELL!? WHAT THE ACTUAL @%#&!?!?!?

@i_dont_like_comics: Broseph, it's time to face the facts here. People are going to pay money to see this movie. Why? Batman and Superman. Two of the biggest names in comics. Plus, I have faith in Snyder's work. He made Watchmen, 300, and the first Man of Steel. All great movies. And Avengers is a bit over rated.

Betting for it.

@_atomikill_: first strike: have faith in snyder? i'd sooner have faith in obama. 2 strike: he made great source material into ok movies. 3. you liked man of steel and consider it greauh cant even say it. you are out sir.

I see.

A live-action Batman movie based on the "Under the Red Hood" Storyline? I would love to see that made. The same can be said for the "Hush" storyline.

I'm in agreement, mostly. If Snyder can redeem himself of MOS with the upcoming stuff, he shall live on in my memory untarnished. Aside from Man of Steel, he has a pretty good track record.

WAIT,

No Man of Steel til 2018

THAT'S IT DC,

I QUIT YOU

BRAVE AND THE BOOOOOOOOOLD!

They also need to do a Justice Society movie.

I wonder which Sandman it will be Lord of Dreams of Gas Mask Pulp Hero?

First off I doubt they'll be doing three movies a year. Hopefully they'll get it up to one a year at least not counting comic adaption that won't be part of the shared universe. Second Wonder Woman and Shazam need to be switch. It would be best for her and the shared universe if they came out before Justice League, and Shazam would work better if he was introduced after Justice League. It would be nice to have Flash/Green Lantern come out before Justice League but I don't think that would be as necessary.

Oh, quit your bellyaching. You'll watch them whether you want to or not.

I hope this is true. I'm assuming Sandman will be the only one that his not linked to other bunch?

What kind of fool think there's no one that cares about a Shazam movie? I have found one.....

@bsaa: The problem with Superman Returns is that it didn't have a good story, and it lacked action. I'm not asking for a Donner Superman anyway. I just want a fun, hopeful Superman to kick off the DC Cinematic Universe.

Greatest response ever.

If Batman vs Supeman and Justice League disappoint me (which the former seems dead set on doing so far with all this info thus far) I won't be watching them no matter what. I've already had my heart broken with MOS, I don't intend to have it punctured over and over again with a butchered DCCU.

Anyway, I seriously question the reliability of any non official movie related source. This Nikki Finke sounds like a journalistic shark using aggression and bullying so I have my doubt as to whether this is legitimate news or pure gossip. DC wouldn't be able to get their act together this quickly on Marvel's level of film production so soon when they struggle to produce films that have nothing to do with Superman, Batman, Green Lantern, Jonah Hex or their Vertigo/non DC graphic novel franchises?

It's been said I'm sure, but Warner are doing this because they can. Not because they should. It will NEVER be what the M.C.U. is.

@aquamanisthebest: Is this how Marvel fans felt about Ant-Man not having a movie (or being in Avengers) till 2015?

Seems suspicious. Shazam is setup for 2 months after BvS, but there has been zero news about it so far. Green Lantern and (Red) Flash for a Xmas release? That sounds cheesy and made up. And the biggest sticking point for me is that they are referring to it as Man of Steel 2. On other forums (haven't seen it much here) a lot of commentors seem to like splitting hairs over what constitutes a Man of Steel sequel. Basically they are saying BvS isn't the actual MOS2, MOS2 will come out much later. I mean BvS was "untitled Man of Steel sequel" for a long time, I don't think DC would play that kind of game. This all sounds like fan-bait

THE HYPE IS REAL.

Cant really say all my opinions here.

HERES SOME SELFISH PROMOTION FOR A BLOG POST I MADE ABOUT IT!!!

http://www.comicvine.com/profile/lynxbearaus/blog/random-thoughts-warner-brothers-dc-cinematic-unive/98332/

Shazam and Sandman then Justice League huh? Sounds like a mistake. Fast tracking the JL movie could work if they went MOS >> BvS >> JL. See? Supes, Supes Bats and a couple cameos of others, the League. Adding in solo titles of characters that aren't (?) in JL seems like a waste of momentum (if Shazam and Sandman ARE in the League and they get movies before Wondy and, say, Flash.. something's wrong).

Man Im so mad at DC for throwing everything on the table in one big train-wreck redefining the art of rushing things. I gotta say Affleck has been impressing so far, Batman is supposed to be a BEAST not some skinny circus artist (Nolan & Bale; that's Robin youre thinking of...).

Shazam before Wonder Woman? Seriously, what is the hold up with her movie? At this point I just don't get it.

...a Shazam movie? I really hope it's true, I love his character and well as long as there is an appearance of Nightwing in the JL movie I'll be happy (:

IF this is the truth, then

i would believe this if there was at least ONE batman film not that i care for bats but lets be real you know they are going to put him in solo films as soon as possible. but looking forward to a wonder woman film!!

its not actually confirmed yet. I really wanted to see the metal men movie.

@edblank: Doesn't really look like Shazam and Sandman are ruining any momentum. From 3 years between MoS and BvS to 2 years between BvS and JL seems more like gaining ground. Besides Sandman was already confirmed to be happening and I highly doubt it will have an effect on the grand scheme of things. I'm not the familiar with Sandman but it was mostly standalone from the DC universe, no?

@feedonatreefrog: who knows, the people that like him? Probably. Aquaman is a founder and he is one of DC's main heroes which is more than can be said for freaking Shazam

flash and green lantern movie could really be F everything up

Just some thoughts...

Batman vs Superman: DOJ will be awesome whether you say you'll see it or not. Because it's all about Batman!

Shazam movie makes sense and will introduce to viewers what he's all about, and a wise decision since WB is making it clear he'll be in JL film.

I don't know how I feel about Sandman, might be a thriller film or a mystery film, but fans might get into it. Still waiting for Metal men though.

Justice League, will it blow every superhero film out of the water? Or will it fall flat like every other bad superhero film? Only 2017 will tell...

Still unsure about Gal Gadot and her WW film but it's about time and I'm willing to give it a chance for support.

Wait, a GL and Flash team-up! Man o' man, it's going to kick so must @$$ I can't wait for 2017. Should've made it in 2016 after Batman vs Superman around christmas, make sense to me that way.

Man of Steel 2 in 2018? Well that kinda sucks for Superman fans. Such a long wait, but hey, Sups' is going to be busy for a while in 'other' films, right?

All and all, I like to say that I'm proud of WB for setting up their game even if they did take this long to do so and I'm going to see these films since for the next couple of years I be going to the movie theaters like crazy because I'll have something to looking forward to.

First of all I doubt any of this is true except for the Sandman and Justice League movie but why does it matter if Shazam and Sandman get movies before WW, fans should be happy she will at least get a solo movie.

Fans: we want more DC movies, WB/DC has no faith in their DC properties; why does DC have to release one movie per 3 years, marvel releases 4 movies each year.
WB/DC: Alright, here you go, more DC movies.
Fans: This is B*******, DC is rushing and releasing too many movies in one year, they are trying to catch up to marvel....

No matter what DC does, haters will hate, theres no pleasing the public.......and thats waay too sad, i have faith in DC, and i dont care if its marvel or DC, both get equal treatments from me and thats how it should be

Just listened to AMC movie talk today. Christian seemed to believe this pretty well. Nikki apparently said she was going to drop a major story "when she came back" (she's been gone for a while)

She has a pretty good career and started Deadline amongst other things.

We'll find out next month in any case.

@lvenger: Did iron man 2 put you of the avengers or every marvel movie after that? no?....then this shouldnt be any different when WB/DC has only released one movie (MoS)

I'm not saying all of these are false, I think she's right about Sandman, Shazam and Justice League and maybe MoS 2, we already know JGL and Goyer are working on a Sandman movie, we've heard about Shazam movie before and JL is pretty much confirmed but I don't think she's right about others.

Personally I would find those 3 only being the ones true the hardest to accept. Because they're all coming out in sequence of each other very soon.

But yeah. Comic Con this year is gonna be nuts.

I don't think she's right about the dates too tbh but yeah have to wait till CC.

is Green Lantern (I know it sucked but still) Canon for the DC Cinematic Universe

I won't believe it until I see some trailers.

I don't get you people. You want DC/WB to get the ball rolling and then you slam a possible timeline because its not how "Marvel," did it or isn't up to your standards. Newsflash WB is a successful studio and has already made a billion this year. They have already released 8 films this year already and I wouldn't put their timeline against them. On top of that Superman/Batman/Wonder Woman are known by general audiences (they aren't stupid) and The Flash by the time of the Justice League movie will be far known than before. On top of that WB has a franchise finishing in the form of The Hobbit and now they need one and a Justice League one will be it!

Get over this guys, fanboys are the last thing on their mind.

So excited if this it's true.vim kind of disappointed that there is no Aquaman movie but this lineup looks great. As long as Grant Gustin is NOT the flash in the movie then I'm a happy camper

How can people not read this and get excited? I don't care about who gets put out first, as long as they get done, I am Happy McHappyPerson. Wonder Woman is a go, the beginnings of Justice League is a go (and the focus on Batman and Superman tells me that Warner is giving these iconic characters their due) and as for the rest, it sounds awesome.

Personally, I am happy with what's been confirmed so far, the Batman/Superman film and Wonder Woman. Knowing there's more in development is freaking awesome.

Sandman there surprised me a bit.

Not that i am against DC creating Sandman, i think they would focus on JL characters before going to Sandman but meh!
