SharpWit 2,867 September 13, 2018 Share September 13, 2018 I haven't seen any of their films so it doesn't concern me really. Sucks for superman fans though. Maybe if they had taken their time with the franchise like Marvel did then I would've gotten onboard but at this point I feel like most decisions they make will come back to hurt them with exception to the Wonder Women sequel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBD 17,274 September 13, 2018 Share September 13, 2018 So they wanted to remove superman because of supergirl the age /time conflict? They should realized that they could work on her origin without removing superman out of equation. 1 ♪ "I practice every day to find some clever lines to say, to make the meaning come through"♪ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xhegu 16 September 13, 2018 Share September 13, 2018 The DCU films so far have been heartless cash grabs anyway, and everyone knows it. Nothing of value has been lost. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmarston1 5,964 September 13, 2018 Share September 13, 2018 Looks like the DCEU has finally collapsed. It really was only a matter of time. Outside of Wonder Woman and its sequel, and maybe Shazam, not much will be missed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could never do a death of Superman movie after that. Firing Henry was the final nail in the coffin. No one will care about aquaman or Wonder Woman now. WB should cut their loses and stick with making TV shows. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a lot harder to predict.... 2 "Work Hard! In the end, passion and hard work beats out natural talent." - Pete Docter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twilight Luna 31,493 September 14, 2018 Share September 14, 2018 Henry was canned so they could do a supergirl movie which makes zero sense since she has a TV show. Rumor was that Superman was going to be in Shazam but that didn’t happen. With Ben gone, they need replacements for Batman and Superman to do another justice league movie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moony the Cat 3,707 September 15, 2018 Share September 15, 2018 Well, as always im just excited to see the next Superman Actor and wonder where the franchise will be going next. I actually like most DCEU Movies, i loved Man of Steel and Batman V Superman, i liked Wonder Woman and Justice League and i only really disliked Suicide Squad, so of course im also a bit sad if the current universe gets cancelled, but since most comic book fans dislike the current Cinematic Universe, im fine with a new try, to please more fans. Whatever they will do next, i will watch it anyway. Sig made by Kyoshi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
