Apparently the sequel to Matt Reeves’ The Batman (2022) is called The Batman – Part II, which is an interesting title considering not only that there was no The Batman – Part I but the first movie didn’t end with an indication that it was the first part of anything. That a sequel was expected […]
Is James Gunn playing the game – by which I mean towing the Warner Bros Discovery line – when he and Peter Safran said that the scrapped Batgirl feature was ‘unreleasable?’ I ask because I’ve seen Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah’s Bad Boys For Life, and let’s just say that it wasn’t the most […]
The production slate for James Gunn’s and Peter Safran’s DC Universe was revealed and while the proof is in the pudding, let’s just say I’m a bit confused (when I’m not being underwhelmed). While I think the idea of leading off with a Superman film – Superman: Legacy – is inspired though fairly obvious, The […]
Recently James Gunn buried the hatchet with Henry Cavill about his iteration of Superman not making it into the revamped DCU, instead deciding to go with a younger version of the character. He did the same with Dwayne Johnson, who played Black Adam, though when he did so he was very likely lying and possibly […]
Remember when Dwayne Johnson tried to essentially muscle his into running the DCEU by doing things like going above Walter Hamada to get Henry Cavill to cameo in Black Adam – now keep in mind that I’m not a fan of Walter Hamada, though there is a such thing as a chain of command – […]
According to Comicbookmovie.com, James Gunn and Peter Safran’s goal is to wipe the slate clean as far as prior interpretations of DC characters in the live action space goes. And I believe that’s a likely, and more importantly, necessary step to take (and have argued it should have been taken place long before now) but […]
What the newly minted DCU (what I assume means ‘DC Universe’ as opposed to formerly the DCEU – the DC Cinematic Universe) does not need is drama, but that’s what’s happening. The trades recently reported that Patty Jenkins sank Wonder Woman 3 due to an unwillingness to change her screenplay, based on studio notes. Today […]
According to The Hollywood Reporter, James Gunn and Peter Safran have completed their work on a new bible for the DC Studios – did they really need to go to Aspen to hammer things out though? It always bugs me when companies lay off people, which Warner Bros and it’s various divisions have been doing […]
I’ve gotta admit that I didn’t see this coming. James Gunn and Peter Safran – Gunn handling the creative end, while Safran takes care of the business side of things – isn’t something that I expected to see. Now comes the question: Which James Gunn will DC Studios, formerly DC Films, get? Will it be […]
