I just hope they can start putting out at least 1 movie a year. If its 1 every 4 or 5 years how can they make a universe? Actors will be in 4 movies in 20 years.
Why? He’s quite possibly the worst person they could choose for this. He doesn’t make comic book movies. He makes James Gunn movies, while using the familiar characters to get butts in seats while then proceeding to make classic characters weird for the sake of being weird. People are not going to be happy to see a quippy Superman in a dance number, but that’s what’s going to happen. Look at his history: Star-Lord - A classic Space Opera character, with a genius level IQ, who got his powers from the Sun, as well as his element gun. He was the brains behind the annihilation wave defense, created the global planetary protection network, and was respected for his leadership and tactical knowledge across the cosmos. Now he’s just a dumb frat boy that gets lucky and is the son of Ego for some reason. Groot - A savage monster with a genius level IQ, who would rip people apart and was intended to be scary. Now he’s a goofy mascot. Drax - A genius and deadly serious warrior who has a zealous quest to kill Thanos. Now just a literal mentally challenged character who is just a joke. Adam Warlock - An impossibly powerful cosmic being with an alter ego that is a threat to the universe. Also very honorable and intelligent. Now a character only existing to be a joke and is very dumb. Then there is Peacemaker, which is a whole other animal. The thing is, all of these characters were D listers, so he could get away with pooping all over the writers and artists who created these amazing characters that allows him to have a job. Now when he turns Superman into a mentally challenged character too dumb to exist as a human let alone a kryptonian, all because it’s funny, people are going to be less forgiving. He makes good movies, but he is the terrible at making comic book movies. He only knows how to make James Gunn movies, and has zero respect for the characters and the fans of the characters. Just look at what he’s done.
So. Mixed feelings about James Gunn, mostly because I know his secret sauce. James Gunn ONLY uses relatively unknown characters. Makes the job easier, because the character can be crafted to the story. So, when he announced "Superman: Legacy", I should have figured it out. When the cast list and set photos came out, I should have figured it out. Finally realized it, though. This isn't a Superman movie. This is a how the world (cue B and C and D lister chorus of characters) is effected by the existence of a Superman. In other words, James Gunn's Superman movie is actually a Superman adjacent film.
OMG you guys still supporting this sham man?! He used to work for Marvel! *hi Marvel* He’s gonna take the seriousness out of DC. I just hope he doesn’t let DC fans down with Superman. And truly wish it is a good Superman story. And does well at the box office.
I'm sure the new movies will be total bullshit. DC can't keep the cast for long, how many more Batman and Superman will we see? We're tired of starting all over again.
I don't like this guy. James Gunn turned Thor into a comedy. Now it's Superman's turn, right? I hope someone stops this guy from doing to the DCU what he did to Marvel.
@@farismihawk391 Groot shouldn’t be lovable though. James Gunn made Groot into a lovable mascot, when he is really a savage and vicious monster with a genius level IQ. He ignores literally everything about the characters he “adapts” and just makes them really dumb so they can be funny. He even tells the actors that they aren’t allowed to read the comics because he doesn’t want them to be influenced by them. James Gunn is horrendous at making comic book movies, and gives zero respect to the people who made these awesome characters. He’s gotten away with it because he only has used D List characters, but people like me who have been actual comic book readers since they were kids have zero respect for the hack. He can make good weird movies. The problem is he wants to slap Marvel or DC on the title but still do his own thing, so that way he can make a ton of money while making slapstick comedies. Just make your own movies and leave the characters we love out of it.
I've always prefered Batgirl over Batwoman. I would love to see a live action adaptation of the Black Mirror story.
Why the reference to Taika Waititi? He did Thor 3 not James Gunn... I am confused?
The dcu will be amazing...better than the dceu....in James gunn we trust
Really??????
Indeed
We dont know yet..

I’d watch a Zod origin film

It will fail leave us with our comics and imagination
all crap
I don't understand what you mean.
I'm sure the new movies will be total bullshit. DC can't keep the cast for long, how many more Batman and Superman will we see? We're tired of starting all over again.
the dceu wasn’t good that’s why it rebooted
At least they're not all dead like marvel

It was taika waititi who made thor into comedy.
The fact you think it was James Gunn who turned Thor into comedy disqualifies you from this conversation.
It's Tika wattiti who directed thor movies Gunn directed Guardians trilogy,The suicide squad and peacemaker S1 only
James gunn introduce GOTG film series which was C-List no one know. Thats how impactful he shown even talking tree become lovable character.
