Chapter 1 - Gods and Monsters | DC Studios | DC

Well kinda it's Damian pretty the antiRobin. The Robin you use when you don't want a Robin. The equivalent of having a chance wear an spot on version of the comic suit just to bring up how silly it looks and how they would never wear it.

@SilverShion Because he’s not only the current Robin to helm the moniker, he’s also Batman/Bruce Wayne’s ONLY biological son.

AND that Robin being Batman’s biological son: Damian Wayne.

I'm glad finally the door is open for a greater batman and for Robin to receive what he deserves. Robin is a very underestimated character. Hope things will blend really well

💯🙌🏾🙏🏾

@Abhi that’s why DC has something that Marvel isn’t doing & that’s called standalone universes, which is why now DC movies & TV shows has DC Elseworlds along with DCU.

​@Abhi I just wish that we get Joss Whedon Back... Please, just for one more Justice League movie

I just hope there is constantine in swamp thing, i mean originaly constantine was a side character in swamp thing and later become canon and dc decide to write his own story.

Let’s hope that the DCU makes a much better DC-themed MCU attempt than the DCEU ever could. Good luck to you, Mr. Gunn.

Can't wait for Lanters

I need those magical characters too....(zatanna, Constantine,raven etc,) :(

And Constantine 2 ( not mentioned )

@Aaron Tyler They can cast actors that can voice act

@Marvel's The Punisher(1.0) año 2023 Well, how do you explain when the world keeps switching between two completely different art styles? And if it doesn't in-universe, how does everything canonically look? I want to see exactly what the characters see, not see through a cartoon lens and live-action lens. Things have to be consistent.

@Sean Wheeler No.

@Mason Monroe Awesome! Me too.👍

Lies again? Official Soundtrack

Think DC learned from the last decade about listening to the fandom.

I'm very excited to see Nightwing in the theaters,

Nah, at this point Barry Allen would always be the main flash. If Wally west is introduced, it’ll be in a teen titans movie.

@michael knight I'm glad you said that, because growing up my top 4 favourite superheroes were Black Panther, Shazam, Ant-Man and Blue Beetle, all of which I was made fun of for liking, people saying things like "they're not cool characters" "nobody cares about them" all 3 now some of the best movies Marvel has made, so I have no doubt in my mind, if they follow the recipe, Blue Beetle will slap hard

blue beettle will flop coz he is a minor character and nobody cares about him

You are praising a murderer!!! He butchered the DC universe.

That's wrong, because he made guardians of the galaxy

@Will Jackson tbf all the Gotg movies and series have had good story telling which have actually made us emotional.

its a shot at previous DC movies if its a shot at all, which it isn't

He wasn't taking shot a Marvel lol. I mean he's trying to do exactly what Marvel has in making everything connected. He wants that same connected storytelling for DC, as many of us do.

Lol a shot at himself then. Hasn’t he made more MCU movies than DC?

​@Oscar Martinez Scott Adkins would probably work better as either Bronze Tiger or Spider.

known*

@Sholo yeah dc again producing garbage. instead of focusing on their main characters who are famous they are focusing on less knwon characters

@Nick Thomasme too. It’s about damned time. He’s my all time favourite character

Your best option for the new BAT-MAN is Scott Adkins.🥷🏻🦇🏆🥇

Nsosi Villo man of tomorrow

@Ben Black the movie wouldn't release without him ngl. He is probably in 90 percent of the movie I'd imagine.

Just wish they’d gotten rid of Ezra Miller, definitely not watching Flash if he’s in it

@John Constantine um yes it will

@John Constantine ITS NOT IT WON’T

i love henry and i know it sucks, but we have to move on

Hate to break it to you but he’s not coming back

It's a new time line. As The flash will reset the DCEU

I'm sorry

@Ben Black Still hoping that even if flash does well, ezra gets replaced. Someone who actually looks like comis barry and isnt problematic

This is a Clip-Share video. It's not face to face. Easy mistake to make though.

Just wished they’d gotten rid of Ezra Miller

I'm so with you!
I feel the same about Ezra still being the flash!

@Sumeet Behera Smiling, going on dates (with Lois) and saving kittens from trees are all things that Superman does. These are exactly the reasons why Superman is called 'The Big Blue Boy Scout' in the comics.

@Sumeet Behera Peacemaker dancing is AMAZING thank you very much

@herloss
We have it already but in TV with Superman And Lois but we need one in the main DCU universe and not just an elseworlds version.

finally we will get a superman with actual personality and character in live action after reeves

@WhoisBenjaminBlack
They aren't keeping him except until his movie comes out. They are hard rebooting the DCU and recasting everyone. The last DCEU show will effectively be Waller. Afterwards even Amanda Waller will be recast hopefully not into being psychopath like the DCEU version.

I'm looking forward to blackest night and brightest day, plus at some point in the future we could have any comic turned into movie or even a series

@Ursidae I hope you enjoyed the 2011 film. Seems you’re the only one truly all in.

Bro, this is what I'm waiting for right here. I love the Green Lantern Corps. I don't care who they use, Hal, Kyle, John, use them all I say😀

@Damara Ari he’s the original GL.

@onlyone23km oh Alan Scott. what's wrong with him?

I hope instead of a DC Fandome we get like a Warner Bros version of something like D23

Tbh I was expecting a reboot or a sequel to the Gods and Monsters movie. Where Kirk Langstrum is Batman, Big Barda is Wonder Woman, and Lor’Zod is Superman.

I expect James Gunn to remember this is dc and he can't pull some guardians of the galaxy festival comedy fest, something that works perfectly for gotg but not for dc stories

@Empire of the Wolves It's probably gonna follow Marvel lead. Sprinkle the bigs in little guy stories

I like the title too but what I don't like is they introduced bunch of characters only super comic nerds will know instead of starting with basic ones like batman, flash wonder woman aquaman etc

@sara it's not even an original title, DC used it for an animation which was about Superman being raised by a Latino couple, Batman was a blood thirsty vampire (I forget what Diana was)

@Deathstroke ok.

I mean, if you are THE greatest, then I can't possibly also be, I'd assume. But, no, I'm not. I'm somewhere in the middle.

You know it

as a mcu fan im so excited, keep em coming!
congrats dc fans!

@AlexJ Sánchez Neat

@Ghost in the Sea No Sinestro is a full on bad guy, when he was a Green Lantern he use the power to do as he wanted and abuse of his power. Later on The Guardians took the power ring from him and deserted him, he then discovered the power of fear and formed the Yellow Lanterns now with the only goal of power and the destruction of the Green Lanterns

@AlexJ Sánchez Isn't Sinestro more of an anti-hero? I'm genuinely asking. I'm not very well versed in Lantern lore, but from what I've read, I got the sense that Sinestro was sort've the Red Hood to the Green Lantern's Batman, if that makes any sense.

@Michael Tennyson read the 2010 comic Green Lantern: Secret Origin. It’s a great version of his origin that uses characters like pre-red lantern Atrocitus as the antagonists

I was just thinking that also I would love to see some evil lanterns like Black Hand, Sinestro, and Atrocitus

Seems like James Gunn is having a much easier time getting projects into than Snyder
WB really screwed up something awesome

​@Sat Nav ok 9 year old Booster gold wanna be.

@michael knight as long as they have different screems it will be alright

this only works with hardcore fans....regular people wont even know what is elseworld and surely will be confused when there are 2 big screem batman

Yes, DC elseworlds will be more interesting, IMO. I'm done with MCU.

Not to be argumentative, but it's 100% reasonable to assume that not every DC fan knows much about Themescera. Everyone has their own little niche. For example: I know a ton about the Batfam but absolutely nothing about the Lantern Corps. He could also be speaking to any potential newcomers who don't know much about DC.

@Rhysio Eren I’ve been saying if they really wanna do a hard reboot, just pivot to Justice League Dark! I looove seeing Constatine, Zatanna & Etrigan together!

@Jaylenjayden930 man, something like the animated film would be fantastic.

@LaToya Aitcheson oh yes, i see what you are saying. We haven't seen a good lex Luther on film since Gene Hackman (my opinion) would live to see a good/respectable lex against superman. hopefully they will have a chapter with magic, meaning constantine, zatanna, etrigan. Man, that would be awesome.

@Rhysio Eren I do agree that I wished he announced more legacy characters & storylines. Like I hope Lex Luther is somewhere around this universe! Gunn has a real quirky sense of humor so for now I guess we’re gnna get all his quirky favs.

@Rhysio Eren bruh if he has Damien than nightwing and Oracle are here Jason is probably dead and we could get a sequel with an under the red hood adaptation

Well more than likely if Superman Legacy 2025 is a big Successful film then you will end up getting a Superman trilogy from James Gunn

I will never pay a penny for a DC product with Gunns name attached

Same!! I've just finished reading Allen Moore's run and now I'm on Scott Snyder's new 52. Swamp thing needs to be on the big screen!!!

@Myelement2110 exactly, it was really good and dark 👌🏻

We had a tv show and it sucked

I bet he cant top The Dark Knight.

its a shame they cancelled the show.. i hope the bring back the cast, they were phenomenal..

@Batman Gummies I can never get into DC’s characters since almost all of them are like gods like Dr. Fate, their characters are completely annoying like Supergirl and Booster Gold, and their over saturation of Batman which I don’t get.

In Terms of movies marvel is king in terms of comics cartoons dc is king maybe that will change in the future when they show us what they can do

@# youngme captain America and Thor didn’t get as popular as they are now until the movies came out. They were still very popular but like not nearly as much as they are now.

@Batman Gummies yeah they're not memorable,DC has the most iconic characters in marvel i would pick just spidey , hulk and ironman

@Tony bablony not really, marvel shows aren’t very memorable or good most of the time

In the world according to James Gunn, yes.

Totally! Feels like the creepiness of Morrison’s GL run (which was an echo of the Hal stories back in the late 60s/early 70s! Totally the right way to go and just focusing on Hal and John is perfect

@Xeato1515 the direction that show was going to take would’ve been god awful from what I had heard it was going to be about. The descriptions for the two scripts and premises are night and day

does anyone remember the green lantern show from cartoon network? i actually liked that show

@Ryan anyway the point remains the same, origin movies or shows are what builds up the fanbase and gets everyone in the world onboard for bigger things. Without them only hardcore fans might (key word) be interested and that's just not a big enough market to support even a comic let alone a show or a movie.

@Ryan and i was there when it premiered at NYCC in like...2010? and it was BOOED because it was CGI and tons of ppl were like "no CGI!" "Animate or don't do it at all" and it was horrible that the fandom were so close minded and intolerant. I loved the series but as you already know, countless ppl refused to support it and it died with one season. I thought the series was awesome and sinestro's guest appearance was amazing but it died and after the two GL animated movies bombed, GL was left to rot.
The Ryan Renolds movie had great potential but somehow went off the rails so fast esp with Hammond being both total cringe in the movie and ...becoming the first yellow lantern....wut? Beware My Power wasn't a terrible movie but wasn't great either and was all over the place with the characterizations and the finale was a mess....
I despair

@Rezsurfer ! Why are some of you MCU stans so defensive to your core? Like, each of your mediocre movies are doing in 700-900m range, just be happy instead of taking offense in every little praise for DC. Where did I say MCU has bad writers? Gunn had directed Slither, Super, and wrote Army of the dead before moving to MCU, so he doesn't belong to them.

@Abhi what he means by talented writers is those that are woke and protected, there's a reason why Henry hated the writing of Witcher, when a writer tried to cancel Henry, the writer got backlash and tried to backtrack on their attempt at cancelling Henry by saying the things he had done was only rumors
Hollywood is so knee deep in wokeness they're sinking into the quicksand making films (and other media) that actors are ashamed of, Chris Hemsworth and Charles dance did the wokebusters, it failed hard

@Rahul read the comics gunn is adapting from and come back

@44excalibur I would like for you to ask people who knows Adam Warlock? Bet you you'll get a few people of being who is that but if you meant your Peter Quill I bet you everyone that room is going to be like I know who that is and I know what you're talkin about.
Yes staying true to Comics is important but you also have to look at the consequences of doing that which is turning away or turning off certain people you have comes with fans that read Comics ever since they were two years old if they're pulling for a certain comic book and be like I don't know where the store is going I don't need to see it or I know what his story is going but I'm not interested and I wish they tell a different story.
You have to meet people in the middle you can't have it one way and expect different results

@44excalibur cuz look overtime at the film's The Hulk doomsday 100 percent to the comics it change things, Ironman didn't say 100% true to the comics but it changed its story, Captain America didn't say 100% true to the story, neither did any other superhero film that came out over the decades or the years of comic book movies. You can take the essence of the story the essence of the characters but you have to create your own story if you follow a storyline in the comics you are tied to what the story is in those comments you have to look at the comics that came out this year you have to look for crossovers of these characters meeting with other people you are tied down to an existing story and you're being lazy. Also they are coming book movies that stay true to Source material the Toxic Avenger that movie nobody even knows about, the first Fantastic Four movie that stayed heavily close to Source material and everyone hated that film the very first one if you don't know then that just proved my point.
And yes not everyone the world is a comic book reader but some are so if you're making a film that stays heavily true to comment then you losing those fans because they already know what's going to happen. Do you have to change the source material again look at Peacemaker changes its source material but also stayed true to the character there's a character called White Dragon and that stays heavily true to his, counterpart, Amanda Waller face heavily true to her, counterpart. But they're in stories that feel human that are interesting to follow and that not a comic book reader or a modern audience can point unsafe I know where this is going just because I read a comic book about it no you have to give them a new lens a new frame of where the story is going for also they can't point out oh I know this because I read in the comic book or no I read this because I seen the comical panel I know what's going to happen. If did use that character nobody's going to talk about his Guardian of Galaxy phones because they're like well I don't care or this characters to self serious or this character is not as funny or none as important and then guess what you're going to lose that more audience because they don't care but just want to be entertained and what he's doing is entertaining people so you can't argue with results

@Road Runner I don't want to have to read every Star Wars book and play every Star Wars game ten times for a Star Wars marathon. Just watching the nine Star Wars films is enough for me.
I'm currently watching Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. with my mother, and the next episode we have to watch is The Well, which ties into Thor: The Dark World. So do we have to watch Thor: The Dark World before we continue watching the series? And if we decide to watch The Dark World, will we have to watch the Phase 1 MCU movies and Iron Man 3? My Mom can't stay up watching a whole movie at night, so it would be awful of me to force her to binge watch every MCU installment because of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. And when we finish Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and if we watched everything that tied into the show, will we continue our MCU binge into Phase 4? Because of Daredevil's appearance in No Way Home and She-Hulk and Kingpin's appearance in Hawkeye, we would have to watch Daredevil. And Daredevil crossed over with the other Netflix shows in The Defenders, so we'd have to watch Jessica Jones, which Mom really didn't like when she saw the pilot episode with me those years ago, so she didn't want me to see that show. Also, No Way Home used characters from other Spider-Man film universes, so would we have to watch those films too? And when Deadpool 3 comes out, it's going to tie the MCU to Fox's X-Men movies.
So yeah, with Marvel doing a whole continuity across multiple series, it's such a pain to binge. The Star Wars expanded universe is even worse because it includes novels which requires you to think up the images yourself based on descriptions, and video games which are interactive with choices and may be on a system I don't own. Across multiple media, a series is a pain to bingewatch. The old DCEU was simpler to binge because it was just live-action movies and one show that can be skipped. Pretty sure Ezra Miller's cameo on the Arrow episode of Crisis on Infinite Earths is non-canon. Because if it was required to watch, then we'd have to watch the entire Arrowverse to get up to that point, plus those other shows and movies referenced in Crisis. And Michael Keaton's Batman is going to be in The Flash movie, so does that mean we have to watch those Burton Batman movies? And what about pop culture references and crossovers? Would we have to go through every piece of media in existence? It would be better if one series is self-contained and not crossover too much.

Disney was already doing with Star Wars and its fantastic

No, this is horrible. It is going down the same failure of the MCU. I don't want to be required to watch all the shows and play video games to know what is going on in the movies.

@spritemon 98 Or have Grant Gustin reprise his role as the CW timeline's Flash?

They should have gotten grant gustin to play flash in the movie instead of ezra Miller

New generations come into play.

Yes but rn everyone is tired of mcu an wants something new everyone hates phase 5

@Ben Black That was WB Discovery, and Batgirl was scrapped a good few months before Gunn was in the mix.

zHack snyder's toilet superman

@Ben Black Batgirl was scrapped for a tax write off wasn't it.

@Ben Black true, but they also thought it was a terrible movie (did bad in screenings, apparently) and they're saying the opposite about Flash[point], despite Ezra Miller's antics 🤷🏻‍♂️. They seem to think it's actually a really good film. And again, it's a convenient way to do a reboot. Batgirl was just a street level movie with no consequences for the DCEU, at large. They obviously thought they had nothing to lose, and not enough to gain from scrapping the Batgirl film.

@SpiderboyN2Jesus but didn’t they scrap a whole finished Batgirl movie cuz they were nervous it wud damage their reputation?

@BcB Theta I'll be like 40 by the time we get Chapter 2 😂

Fr I’ll be in my mid 20s by the time this comes out. I feel old

@Aesthetic Ballers Oh god, you’re one of those people who think a movie is a masterpiece because it got a good rotten tomato critic score or made a lot of money at the box office, but ok fine by that logic we are going to use your mindset and say with a straight face that all of Michael Bay’s transformer films are a masterpiece because it made a lot of money at the box office? Now don’t get me wrong you could like the films, it’s your opinion at the end of the day. But are you going to say that the films are objectively good for example does the film have plot holes, plot contrivances, inconsistent characterisations, inconsistent/bad world-building, inconsistent internal logic or objective examples of poor writing? If so and it ticks all or almost all the boxes then I am sorry to say this but your favourite film is objectively bad in a movie sense.
The only good film Snyder made was man of steel because of the action, good music and pretty decent writing (I still haven’t watched justice league sc yet so I won't say anything and probably never will because it’s too long also not worth of my time to watch it).

@Euro Nation Snyder is not a fan, he didn't understand the stories or the characters

Just wish he’d gotten rid of Ezra Miller, I’m not watching Flash movie if they’re in it

@TheDarkKnight
'Everything Snyder made flopped'
*Man of Steel* budget: 225 Million ; Collection: *670 million*
*BvS* budget: 250 million; Collection: *872 million*
*Snyder Cut* IMDb: *8/10*
Rotten tomatoes fan rating: *93%*
Next time research your facts and come with a proper comment.

​@Kal El it bombed at the box office because it released at the height of pandemic when no one was going to cinemas either by choice or because they were shut. Saying it's DC's biggest flop without taking that into consideration is just plain idiotic. Especially given it was the most watched DC film on HBO Max which didn't get included with the box office stats.
