Superman to hit theaters July 11, 2025, marking the start of the DCU - Batman movie THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD/Superman | Official Teaser Trailer
- Thread starter Gemini
- Start date
These people they "fan cast" are probably right in the target range.....
These new main actors will need to be early 20's to maybe mid 30's
Think about long game ....3-5 movies 7-12 year commitment if Gunn's first few movies hit....
If Gunn bombs 2 maybe 3 flicks, he's out....and back to the drawing board

I agree and disagree with you. While I don't need real world explanations for superhero/ villain powers, DC was too vague. I am almost 56 and didn't know that Aquaman had strength comparable to Namor until I was in my 30's. Been reading comics since I was 5.
Marvel: Polaris can fly by manipulating the magnetic fields of the Earth and lift her body accordingly. Under normal circumstances, Polaris can control magnetic fields of natural or artificial origin. It is possible that she has all the same powers as her father, Magneto, but thus far, Polaris has only displayed the ability to manipulate magnetic, electrical, and gravitational fields.
DC: "Magnet Man" can fly.
Everything Superman they just find creative ways to fuck it up. 
Yet you're in this thread. Superhero movies is geek territory whether you read comics or not. Pot meet kettle

..and it's gotten stale l filled with bad humor and all of their character designs/costumes have the same militaristic themes and are over designed. Same murky purply tones in most of their films. Same 3 act st ucture with ends with the hero facing a faceless CGI army. Outside of black panther and Spiderman fuck MCU because they ruined just about every other franchise besides those two.We're talking plots and story lines. One is indestructible and pretty much hides behind glasses at work. It takes a lot to make his stories interesting because he has very few weaknesses. The other guy is a genius athlete that runs around with NO POWERS (which is cool) but is pretty much written like's he's Superman too. Give him prep-time and he can fall from space and still survive.
We aren't arguing who's more iconic. We are talking plots. All or MOST of DC's characters are archaic white male fever dreams. Fake cities and powers that make NO SENSE. lol
A dude that can run fast, that is tricked by mirrors and Ice. A chick that is basically the female superman (I'll admit she's more interesting than the other two)
Expect to see this bald ninja fight Superman, YET AGAIN in another film
WHICH ONES? Up until NOW, they only produce 2 character's movies (and that was most of my life) - Superman and Batman...Superman and Batman....Superman...and BATMAN...(Now finally?) Wonder Woman. First movie was cool..second hot trash....Hell when they TRIED TO DO a GREEN LANTERN film it fell into the dirt it was so bad.
Hell NOBODY even knows who the rest of DC's characters are because they've done such a shit job of promoting them on film. And their back stories are BADLY written...Corny shit.
Tv Shows...Titans started off good, puttered out.
STAR GIRL? a chick with a staff (that makes no sense) and her partner...STRIPSEY........the fuq? This is what you consider better plots????????....a nigga name "STRIPSEY"? Then he makes his car into Robot S.T.R.I.P.E....
No engineering that we can speak of...just does it.
Green Arrow...a dude dressed like Robin Hood, shooting arrows in the age of automatic weapons...in a green suit....Hawkeye..is waaaaaay better written in the comics than this dude with a handlebar mustache dressed like Gumby.
The reason Marvel wins is that they at least tried to base their characters in reality. SOMEWHAT....
Well...damn....I agree with you there. DC still sucks
Marvel sucks especially nowadays their comics are ass and filled with weird shit.i look at marvel now the way I looked at dc when I was a kid back in the 80s when I was an outsider and didn't understand.
I don't really collect comics anymore. I read occasionally the CBR's online. The comics have gotten way more complicated, and they are trying to compensate for low readership. I saw this coming 30 years ago, when the internet was here....movies and video games too. There isn't a younger audience of kids to replenish the readers (like I used to be) that have walked away.

spiderman has been the most popular superhero for a long time.

don't count your chickens before they hatch. i am not impressed with guardians of the galaxy or the suicide squad or peacemaker.
i think brightburn and super were solid. but i am not getting my hopes up.
the whole quippy white boy dick and ball joke shit has always been trash. and that is the majority of what i see from him.
he ruined too many characters. drax anyone?????
man of steel was the best superman put to film.
i literally just watched superman 1, superman 2 and man of steel last week.
them 1970's movies was corny as fuck. smh.
as a kid i loved them. as an adult, yikes...... if they were released today they would do as bad as superman returns.
we honestly would do better if they just left the property alone for now.
when i saw that one it raised my eyebrow.
You must be young to say something like that.
Us “Old Heads” are appreciating what comes out.
I’m 52 years old. I was 8 years old when Christopher Reeve Superman debuted. That shit was like Fuckin’ Porn to a 8 year old sitting in a theater watching it.
Prior to that, all I had was TV’s “Spider-Man”, “Incredible Hulk” and “Wonder Woman”. Along with the 1960s “Batman” series and the movie they did that got shown around Thanksgiving break.
The 1980s we basically didn’t get anything.
When Tim Burton did “Batman” dropped in 1989, that sparked the flame on how to do a proper superhero film thru the 90s which we didn’t get that much.
Once Disney got ahold of Marvel in 2007. We finally got a lot of content.
I gotta pour out a little liquor tonight for all the old school comic heads who read books back in the 1950s thru 1970s who are no longer here.
What is coming out today from Marvel/DC is what they dreamed of.
RIP TO THE OLD SCHOOL COMIC HEADS NO LONGER WITH US, I’M WATCHING AND ENJOYING THIS CONTENT FOR YOU!
don't forget blade 1998.
Soooooooooo.....a younger Superman and a Batman whose been thru 3 Robin's already and already has a son. Timeline isn't timelining!!!
While I'm glad to finally have a plan it's a bitch to wait two years because it's gonna be 2 more years of fancast and story ideas from these reddit geeks. I'm chilling until someone is casted and the trailer drops. Untill then I wanna see his this flashpoint movie reshapes the universe I just watched the animated flashpoint paradox today. It would be dope if Michael Keaton's Batman was Thomas wayne better yet they should've had Jeffery dean Morgan to boay Thomas wayne bats.

Good . Stay away from that weird silver age crap. Silver age DC is the worst.
