New agenda

Of what's use are the "iconic characters" on the big screen when they are bombing?

We are talking about building a franchise brand using HBO MAX, then when the franchise brand has been built, the movies goes back to cinema and make their money.

With the above, the franchise brand is created without incurring unnecessary loses, WBD makes money through collective annual HBO MAX revenue, HBO MAX gets massive increase in it's subscribers.

The truth of the matter is, the first five DCU films have high possibility of underperforming at the BO whether we like it or not, and the "iconic characters" won't stop it. They should have plans to harness HBO MAX to build a franchise brand before going back to cinema.

What WBD should do is;
1.) Release the first two DCU films in cinema, and if they perform well, then they proceed with further cinematic releases.
2.) If the two films underperform, then they should port to HBO MAX to build the franchise brand.
3.) They build the franchise brand by enormously progressing on the planned saga or completing the planned saga.
4.) When the franchise brand has been built, then they go back to cinema and harness the franchise brand in making money.
5.) They should make sure their films are of high quality and standard.
6.) They should also minimize cost in other to maximize revenue.

That's the way to save the franchise and get audience interest and faith in it. "Iconic characters" won't save it, rather strategy, quality, patience, resilience and sacrifice will.

As a matter of fact, since the DCU first set of films are bound to flop, WB/DC can avoid that by releasing the films on HBO MAX with the intention of establishing their brand first either by enormously progressing in the planned saga or completing the planned saga. When the brand has been created, they can then port back to cinema.

At this point, loses won't be made, franchise brand will be created, HBO MAX gets to make a lots of money, and when the movies goes back to cinema they will make lots of money due to audience interest and faith in the franchise thanks to the brand created.

Personally, if I'm to create a shared universe franchise like the DCU, this is the exact thing I will do.

Streaming platforms are good platforms to build a franchise and its brand without incurring loses. If The Boys and Stranger Things are to be released in cinema, do you know how successful they will be? Their brands have been created with streaming without loses on the part of the studio

That's the part I suggest DC should take, but if they still want to go the cinematic route, no problem, but they should get ready to deal with loses. But in the loses, they should relentlessly press forward in establishing a DCU brand with the consistent progressing on the planned saga. I just hope Zaslav, Gunn and Safran will be that relentless.

The kind pressure on Barbie ehn no be here..

CGI is bad though. But I feel the film would have benefited from having a central villain, hence why RF would have been better.

Now that the DCEU has been rebooted, it will be nice and of necessity for James Gunn to give detailed explanations on the nature of things in the DCU as regards what stays and what does not in other to eliminate confusions on the side of the fans.

Since the reboot is a soft reboot, we need to know which movie stays and which ones are out.

We need to know which characters stays, and which ones are out.

For movies that stays, we need to know the elements in them that stays, and those that are out.

He should do this to avoid confusions, complications, unnecessary and irrational complaint and criticisms on the part of the fanbase and critics.

He should create a video to do this

The CGI in the movie is the same as the trailers with that $300m+ budget. I guess the spent so much on the nostalgia bait, marketing and generating fake hype they barely had anything left. 😂 Does this shot remind you of something, Thor 4 maybe? 😂😂 Hypocritical fûcks. 😂😂

Dotng:
Jason Momoa was acting like Captain Jack Sparrow in FAST X.

Oga go cinema. July 18 is still far

BlackManta:
To those of you that will watch The Flash next weekend or anytime soon in the cinemas, if you use Twitter a lot I will advice you to mute the word "Flash" and other words related to the movie like"Batman" "Keaton" "Zod" "Supergirl" "cameo".....etc

Those crazy Snyder cultists are moving mad on Twitter, they are hellbent on maliciously spoiling the movie for whoever intends to see it.

SOZINN:
Shazam fury of the gods had 86% audience reviews but that's not the DC fans being biased and flooding the movie with positive reviews, Zachary Levi must have his own cult-like following too like Dwayne. Wonder Woman 2 had positive audience reviews but maybe that's Gal Gadot's fans demonstrating some love. Two movies that we can agree are utterly terrible but their audience reviews are not biased let's just add both main actors to your list. 🤡

"Michael Keaton’s return as Batman in ‘THE FLASH’ is a delight to see but his mediocre dialogue makes him feel more like an action figure than an actual character." - Discussingfilm


"Mediocre dialogue" 💀💀💀

Critics don't like DC sha

They gave Ms Marvel 98% on RT...
But see The Flash

Hopefully the score will improve as more ratings come in
