But Stan Lee is an executive producer.
Who is talking abt Stan Lee? Nolan was also an executive producer on BvS. But that doesn't mean he had a say in it. Stan Lee is only credited based on his input on the characters n0t like he did any or much work in getting the films to producti0n. At best, he was only a c0nsultant, s0mething N0lan served as in MOS yet credited as executive producer.

Shazam is pure lighthearted comedy, no surprise there and that tone is perfect for Billy.
WB wouldn't have done it any other way.

Harley Quinn was always light, crazy and fun. We already saw that in Suicide Squad.

Wonder Woman 1984 will never use the Marvel formula.
The tone will be just like the first movie, WB is not crazy enough to change something that already worked the first time.
Patty Jenkins is still in charge.

So count out WW84.
am n0t speaking of the films just being lighthearted mind you. Am speaking of the films bearing deeper meanings than it been just pop corn flicks. WW was a generic film that had n0thing new to it. I think the only reas0n it wasn't trashed was the feminist thing it had going which to be truthful wasn't even present. The film barely showed the essence of why the world needed w0nder w0man, it only pushed to audiences lungs that they needed w0nder w0man. If you call that s0mething great, then i guess WB going generic is the way to go for you. Shazam needs to be lighthearted, true but the film also needs to have meaning and a sense to it. I trust the director, but WB? They'll ruin it. And, we d0n't want a harlequinn m0vie. Seriously. That's catw0man sloppy. If a film like that manages to be a hit at the BO expect trashs like that henceforth.

I support you on this, bro. WB no longer has the balls to produce good movies.

This was You !!!! Time sha has a way of ruining things up angry grin
yea, that was me and is still me. Suicide squad like i maintained in my earlier resp0nse to you, could have made a billi0n had it n0t been for WB. Alot of scenes were cut, changed and the story was meh. Had those things n0t been present, you won't be here trying to feed ur ego by quoting me. N0w, show me where i said infinity war would be a flop...pls. I was a supporter of infinity war b4 its release. My only fear then which i remember posting either here or the Mcu thread was its handling of the villain, which marvel did handle well. Infinity war, the winter soldier, thor are my favorite marvel films so far.

But come to think of it.

DC has already done movies with deep meaning.

Zack Snyder's Watchmen was really deep and had some sense to it.

Also BVS wasn't a generic action flick.

At the end of the day critics thrashed these movies because it was too depressing, dark and gritty.

It failed bro..

Critics didn't hype or praise Suicide Squad.
Both fans and critics hated the film.
It only became a BO success because of good marketing from WB.
i wasn't talking abt the critics. I was talking abt fans pre the m0vie release.

n0w u get me. That's why i say critics aren't the go to squad for films being g0od in its sense of entertainment or significance. They have this idea that super hero films are meant to be cart0onish. I thank the fox films for having the balls and bringing abt an era of superhero films being agenda based.

Yes fans praised the film after those early screenings.

Aquaman has had 3 early screenings and fans praised it as well.
But I didn't want to post it here cuz I was waiting to see what critics would say.

You know those situations where critics would thrash a movie that fans love... Vice versa.
Venom is a testimony to that.

I thought Aquaman would suffer that fate but it turned out differently.

Fans were praising it after 3 early screenings and critics are now praising it after the world premiere yesterday.

The critical reception is gonna be like WW.

I can't wait to see the movie for myself and make my own judgement.

One thing I know is....

The entire DC universe will not become cheesy like Marvel films.
Matt Reeve's Batman will be an exception.
It will carry on the dark, gritty nature that Zack Snyder used in BVS.
The director confirmed it himself.

Other future DC movies might be cheesy to an extent cuz its obvious that Warner Bros don't wanna risk the wrath of critics anymore.

the problem with Nigerians is english. The dude just quoted a critic and said himself that he will make his judgment when the m0vie c0mes out, and you are still asking if he's kidding. No one said infinity war wasn't a good m0vie n0w, did they? S0metimes i wish for the day this superhero films will end. S0me guys just l0oking for the slightest chance to start s0me useless fan war.

According to analysts... When it comes to box office projections, Aquaman could be the first movie since June to open with $100m or more this year.

The last movie to achieve this feat is Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom with $143m and that was way back in June.


These projections are not set in stone and therefore should be taken with a pinch of salt.

We will wait and see...

I don't blame you, maybe you watched the latest trailer in 3gp format 140p grin

The critics who saw the movie are saying the visuals are spectacular.

JL failed to market the character well.

But it's not a big of a problem that James Wan can't fix.

People are already buying tickets to see fish boy and there's nothing you can do about it. undecided

the CGI in aquaman is okay but the movie wont top infinity war,black panther and venom in the list of best superhero movies of 2018

Why did those people bother buying tickets in the first place undecided

Not only did they buy tickets, they bought so much that WB made 3.7 billion dollars with DCEU first five movies.
