Every time people talk about the future DC movies someone will always complain all the movies will have a dark tone. How do they know and why do they assume that? Just because the one movie in the DCCU so far (MOS) had a dark serious tone doesn't mean WB/DC is stupid enough to make all their films in the same tone. Lets look at other superhero shows and movies set in the same universe: The Flash is a spinoff of Arrow a dark and gritty show but the Flash is a more lighthearted and humorous show. Superman: The Animated Series didn't have the same tone Batman: The Animated Series had. GOTG was different from The Winter Soldier. Not in the same universe but Green Lantern was the 1st big DC movie after TDK and they didn't try to make GL dark even though the super successful TDK was and came out only 3 years prior.
I know someone will bring up the rumor about DC allegedly having a "No jokes" policy but I'm pretty sure that's been confirmed to not be true. That just sounds ridiculous even the TDK trilogy had jokes and moments of levity. I can easily see Flash and Shazam having a more MCU feel to them so I don't think every movie in the DCCU will be like MOS.
