ita not just WB, its perfect storm of backlash and valid criticisms towards snyderverse films, and then the ever growing competition from marve, and the desire to separate their universes from marvel and then halfway bailing out on the changes in fear of more backlash. its almost like the entire universe aligned itself to screw over the dceu.

Well in the DCEU Superman came out first but I understand, however Batman is DC’s golden goose like how Spider-Man is for Marvel. And peoples attention would rather be caught with the name Batman on it than Blue Devil.
DC have so much characters, hero or villain, they are amazing. Just imagine animated series movies characters of DC to become Live Action. Idk man, WB can't see that opportunity

Honestly, if I'm Jesus, I'd have quitted my job centuries ago, human-kind simply doesn't deserve my help. I mean it gets to a point where being a god is literally being a babysitter.
The AU had a lot more creative freedom since "pfft animation is for kids and doesn't lead to much sales". While Life Action Movie Releases need to have the executives make their quotas and criteria the director's problem.
Honestly, the dceu just don't have a guy like Kevin Feige, a person that just loves marvel and want to make movies that he knows the fans will like. the people that marvel bring to create the movies are people that adore the comics and the storylines, they basically hire fans, and that's what makes it successful, cause they know what to bring to the audience. If DC will do that they'll succeed. And of course unlike Disney the WB are meddling much more with the making of the movie, instead of trust the people that they hired.
At first, I didn't like Batman killing because of the 1989 movie. After watching Batman v Superman, I got over it. Nowadays, I have no problem with Batman killing anymore.
the line "all superheroes have a scene where they can't quite get off the ground...what a perfect metaphor!" should be written on the tombstone of DCEU
he didn't beacuse the studio didn't interfiere woth aquaman, because he is james wang a terror movies dierctor, wb knew that if they tried to tick him off the movie like they did almost everybody else they would get nightmares for decades to come.
It’s definitely the relationship with the directors that’s why the majority of the movies suck. If you don’t allow someone to have creative freedom and are constantly on their backs the work they produce is not gonna be good. Wish WB would understand that no one likes a micromanager
When you're nostalgia invest you in too deep to let go even though you know there is only disapointment waiting 🙄😄It's essentialy gamblers falacy. I can't quit now I already invested so much. I'm sure the movie that turns it all around is right around the corner... 😋
So don't be... I just don't get why people would ever be fans of this franchise. I get that you like DC characters. I do too. But what these directors are doing (or at least Snyder is doing) is essentially mocking you. He ignores the comic books which have so much good content, he compromises the character's inherent traits to make way for his whims, and above all he chooses really bad color pallets that hurts the eyes when you try to watch the movie. All this would be acceptable if he at least made a solid movie but he doesn't. His movies, even in his extended cuts are filled with plot holes. Love DC. Hate DCEU.
@@hittingyouoverthehead true but some DCEU movies are really good. Atleast the movies which Snyder has touched the least are good. WW, Aquaman, Shazam, even BOP(which was average imo but still is Critically acclaimed) . WW84 was bad. And it was a full Patty Jenkins' movie. WB never interfered and here we are. And interference to some degree is necessary. WB wanted to include some more action scenes in that movie. But she refused to do so. And they also wanted to change some scenes.
@@swift_lordyt6865 I agree with some of what you said. Shazam was good. Aquaman had too many jumps jumpscares for my liking. I know the director is a horror director but that doesn't excuse that. BoP was very weak in plot to the extent that it didn't even make sense to me. So far the only DCEU movies I felt was really good was WW and Shazam. Even in WW, Remus Lupin is a very cheesy villain saying cheesy villain lines.
I’d like to personally give an award to the people who commented “first” to commemorate their stupendous achievement If you’re interested, I do great in depth BREAKDOWNS of MARVEL and Star Wars Movies and TV shows (if you’re not interested, just ignore this and have a great day:)
This trailer has made me unironically appreciate the chaotic mess the DECU is. It's like watching a toddler learn a new skill. Full of potential yet an expert at fucking up but moments of successful are cathartic. Thank you
And the funny thing is. That toddler is supposedly the smarter and wiser adult on the pack. Given the fact, WB-DC had decades of a headstart for their superhero movies, compared to Marvel, Yet here we are.
@@hazmat4260 Right, well, that in and of itself is not everyone. Second, I am a comic book fan, and have seen comic panels not out of context. And everyone in their own right is a critic. You can always find something you don't like it something that could be better. But even still, I definitely don't throw up, I haven't thrown up, and I won't throw up at the idea of the DCEU.
@@DarthTingleBinks Your comment boils down to "everyone cant possibly dislike a movie. There's bound to be a lot of fans since there's so many people" Like duh. But yeah there's a large portion of people who hate these movies Theyre divisive AT BEST.
I like how on the parents part he didn’t show Batman’s because *WE ALL ALREADY KNOW BATMAN’S* And it by default is unique unlike all the other ones where the parent either leaves their child and/or does somethin terrible to their kid.
"So many of these movies have scenes where heroes try to fly but can't get off the ground. What a perfect metaphor." that took me off guard for some reason
I really liked the part that basically said "f*** it, do what you want with it" imitating the studio directives, that was hilarious. Congrats on the 400th honest trailer!
Congratulations on your 400th video! 😎👌 What makes this one so painfully accurate is a reminder how good the DCU could be. If only there had been a clear vision (and a KF like overseer) for 20 years, right from the start. I still feel Nolan's take on Batman was the right place to begin...
7:20 some executive at WB thought the scene in the first Iron Man where he flew headfirst into the ceiling was the greatest moment in cinematic history, and demanded that every DCEU film replicate it.
“When the closet thing you have to a Feige is Trump’s treasury secretary. Sheesh, No wonder these guys hated Cyborg.” Omg that line nearly killed me XD

Yes thats what they said
MCU: Lets introduce new characters
DCEU: BATMAN!
Well in the DCEU Superman came out first but I understand, however Batman is DC’s golden goose like how Spider-Man is for Marvel. And peoples attention would rather be caught with the name Batman on it than Blue Devil.
DC have so much characters, hero or villain, they are amazing. Just imagine animated series movies characters of DC to become Live Action. Idk man, WB can't see that opportunity
@@anthonychang1426 yeah because they don't want to show the world who Blue Devil is. They're too scared to stray away from Batman. Marvel got us to care about Cap, Thor, Iron Man, the Guardians, Ant Man, Hawkeye, Black Widow and Black Panther. All those characters were nobodies prior to the MCU. Now, they're household names.
When in doubt... Cast a new Batman/Joker!
@@whosaidthat84 Marvel made their D-list comics characters into AAA blockbusters. DC took their A-list characters and turned them all into D-list Batman ripoffs.

It's weird how DC's animated universe is so tight, and their live action universe is such a mess.
The AU had a lot more creative freedom since "pfft animation is for kids and doesn't lead to much sales".
While Life Action Movie Releases need to have the executives make their quotas and criteria the director's problem.
@Ben John not to hollywood sadly.

And then there's independent superhero series that are beating both dceu and marvel like boys and invincible
@@glendarjj3991 They're good, but they're not beating either. It's just a fresh take so to you it seems better.
Okay, but the scene where they disappear and only Flash and Gordon are still standing there is legit hilarious.
"Do you know who that is? That's. . . that's . . . that's another director's problem.
Died😂
the attempt to fly is a PERFECT metaphor for the DCEU 🤣🤣😂😂
Honestly, the dceu just don't have a guy like Kevin Feige, a person that just loves marvel and want to make movies that he knows the fans will like.
the people that marvel bring to create the movies are people that adore the comics and the storylines, they basically hire fans, and that's what makes it successful, cause they know what to bring to the audience.
If DC will do that they'll succeed.
And of course unlike Disney the WB are meddling much more with the making of the movie, instead of trust the people that they hired.

"So many of these movies have a scene where the hero is learning to fly but can't quite get off the ground" really is a perfect metaphor for the DCEU.
Good point
Bailey flexing his coked out raged out WB Exec is priceless.
Once, out of curiosity, I tried to count how many people Batman indirectly killed in the 1989 movie. He kills more people than The Joker.
do you remember how many it was? i’m curious lol
Exactly. There is only one live action Batman film where Batman did not kill anyone and that was George Clooney in Batman and Robin.
IIRC in the Val Kilmer one at the circus he breaks a dudes neck then punches him in the face. Figure that one out. XD
@@trueblue6201 the best one
At first, I didn't like Batman killing because of the 1989 movie. After watching Batman v Superman, I got over it. Nowadays, I have no problem with Batman killing anymore.

I love that the one guy who didn't blame studio interference ahead of time is the one who knew he did a good job.
he didn't beacuse the studio didn't interfiere woth aquaman, because he is james wang a terror movies dierctor, wb knew that if they tried to tick him off the movie like they did almost everybody else they would get nightmares for decades to come.
I don't know what's more unhealthy. The DCEU's relationship with its directors or the fanbase's relationship with the DCEU.
Directors. 100%
I'd say it's easily the fan base.
The executives relationship with it's directors and fanbase
It’s definitely the relationship with the directors that’s why the majority of the movies suck. If you don’t allow someone to have creative freedom and are constantly on their backs the work they produce is not gonna be good. Wish WB would understand that no one likes a micromanager
Amazing how just a year ago they did the MCU for their 300th honest trailer.
Technically, a year and a half.
“LIKE” for finding another reason to include “This is Katana ...” 🤣🤣🤣
That series of " 's feud with Warner Brothers" is why I keep scratching my head over the whole RTSV hashtag clan.
If you mean RTSV under WB, maybe.
It’s kind of a miracle that we’re all still actively invested in the DCEU when half of the movies flat-out suck. Now we know how Star Wars fans feel.
I see you saying "we" oh you speak French now?
Most Star Wars fans sure. I still like all of them, even the ones I don't like. It's kinda weird, but hey.. I just like Star Wars.
Star Wars>DCEU though
When you're nostalgia invest you in too deep to let go even though you know there is only disapointment waiting 🙄😄It's essentialy gamblers falacy. I can't quit now I already invested so much. I'm sure the movie that turns it all around is right around the corner... 😋
Except all Star Wars films good or bad have fun extra material that let the story continue indefinitely. DCEU is too isolated to make that work.
Being a fan of the DCEU is the most stressful job I've had and I worked in a supermarket deli in a largely white Karen infested neighborhood.

"Somebody pray for Gini!" -- Me, an atheist
So don't be...
I just don't get why people would ever be fans of this franchise. I get that you like DC characters. I do too. But what these directors are doing (or at least Snyder is doing) is essentially mocking you. He ignores the comic books which have so much good content, he compromises the character's inherent traits to make way for his whims, and above all he chooses really bad color pallets that hurts the eyes when you try to watch the movie.
All this would be acceptable if he at least made a solid movie but he doesn't. His movies, even in his extended cuts are filled with plot holes. Love DC. Hate DCEU.
@@hittingyouoverthehead true but some DCEU movies are really good. Atleast the movies which Snyder has touched the least are good. WW, Aquaman, Shazam, even BOP(which was average imo but still is Critically acclaimed) . WW84 was bad. And it was a full Patty Jenkins' movie. WB never interfered and here we are. And interference to some degree is necessary. WB wanted to include some more action scenes in that movie. But she refused to do so. And they also wanted to change some scenes.
@@swift_lordyt6865 I agree with some of what you said. Shazam was good. Aquaman had too many jumps jumpscares for my liking. I know the director is a horror director but that doesn't excuse that. BoP was very weak in plot to the extent that it didn't even make sense to me.
So far the only DCEU movies I felt was really good was WW and Shazam. Even in WW, Remus Lupin is a very cheesy villain saying cheesy villain lines.
I'ts funny how the true villian in the DCEU is his own creator: Warner Bros.
I think you meant to say Zack Snyder
@@cameronhodgetts920 no. Its WB

Second, I am a comic book fan, and have seen comic panels not out of context. And everyone in their own right is a critic. You can always find something you don't like it something that could be better. But even still, I definitely don't throw up, I haven't thrown up, and I won't throw up at the idea of the DCEU.
@@DarthTingleBinks Your comment boils down to "everyone cant possibly dislike a movie. There's bound to be a lot of fans since there's so many people"

Theyre divisive AT BEST.
I like how on the parents part he didn’t show Batman’s because *WE ALL ALREADY KNOW BATMAN’S*
And it by default is unique unlike all the other ones where the parent either leaves their child and/or does somethin terrible to their kid.
Does anyone else got a Pagoda Egg Rolls ad narated by the Epic Trailer Man himself before watching this?

Yup, now that's some good algorithm-based confusion.

Most of the blame.
*All of the blame
Warner Bros. is completely to blame.

"So many of these movies have scenes where heroes try to fly but can't get off the ground.

that took me off guard for some reason
It’s HILARIOUSLY accurate
If you ever do another Trailer for a big film series, you should do every Pixar movie, every James Bond movie, or Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga!
love the writing. An Instant Classic to be remembered for future generations looking back at the DCEU and asking "What was the beginning like?"
I really liked the part that basically said "f*** it, do what you want with it" imitating the studio directives, that was hilarious.
Congrats on the 400th honest trailer!
Congratulations on your 400th video! 😎👌
What makes this one so painfully accurate is a reminder how good the DCU could be. If only there had been a clear vision (and a KF like overseer) for 20 years, right from the start. I still feel Nolan's take on Batman was the right place to begin...
I love DC, but the DCEU is just a hot mess.
You Love DC Comics? You can't ever work for us!
It will take one brave soul to do a injustice movie to get the DCU back on track or a batman who laughs movie
That coke sniff and sound after was the most realistic thing ever
5:13 That scene with the mom in Shazam is so well done (my favorite in the whole movie), they should have done the entire movie more like that.
7:20 some executive at WB thought the scene in the first Iron Man where he flew headfirst into the ceiling was the greatest moment in cinematic history, and demanded that every DCEU film replicate it.
This episode was simply beautiful, and thank you guys for so much entertainment.
