Let's see how it pans out.

TonySpike:
Lmao...we shall revisit this argument in roughly 5 years from now. The chances of a DC reboot succeeding is less than 30%, not even with die-hard fan bases that have been faithful over the past few years. I wish James Gunn well on his new adventure...lol

Xavier5:


The rebooted DCEU will or might have issues at the beginning which is synonymous with change(s), but if they're committed to completing their proposed story arc, the franchise will be successful.

johnyace:
Snyder fans never supported black Adam, they were even shiting on cavil for returning without Snyder
Guess they were right because Snyder was probably the only one who could guarantee his stay in the DCEU

abduleez1:
This was one of the sole reason I was bothered by Pamela Abdy and De Luca making DC decisions when they weren't the Studio heads and clearly knew a new chief was incoming sooner than later.

This was the same skepticism I shared with the Constantine 2 decision and shopping out Madame Xanadu and other JL Dark projects.

You knew someone was coming in a few months, then why take major decisions that could be overturned when you aren't sure the new person is on board.

abduleez1:
The real question...

Minemrys:

The real question is, who had the final say in the decisions? Just because they made propositions doesn't mean they had the final say. Before anything is announced, the studio heads and board know of it and sanction it.
Saying those people screwed Cavill is wrong considering they didn't have any final say till it was agreed.
Cavill said it, so blaming a bunch of employees make no sense. It's like saying a staff working in a bank goes on to hand employment letter to someone behind the knowledge of the board.
You can get sued lol.

Minemrys:

Either he keeps them and become a hypocrite or brings some of them back as new characters.
I could see his wife being the new Lois Lane lol. Na them sabi sha, for what it's worth, it was quite the ride but now, my watch is over.
Now I rest.

Minemrys:
Mhen, to think we really were excited and had high hopes for the DCEU when it started back in 2014.
@raalsalghul, Tonyspike, SMAUG and many others who sadly I can't recall again, were with us from the beginning when this thread was created, what a ride.
Turns out the excitement was all for nothing.

abduleez1:


Yeah, you could see his wife as Lois Lane. Repeating the same shït Snyder stans be saying online since and then come here to deny Snyder stans bashing Cavill for showcasing Black Adam.
I guess you mistakenly regurgitated the lines of "a few with multiple accounts".

Make na dey suffry dey pretend. You wey talk say you no be Snyder fan one time like that.
The duality of you peeps is eternal. LMFAO.


Anyways, farewell brother. It was quite a ride all these years.

abduleez1:


Yeah, who made the final decision as if you knew who had the final say in letting Cavill go.
It works both ways bro.

Raalsalghul:


Lol!

Big bro, you still dey these streets? Haha!

Between DC studios and Nigerian government, I know know who clueless pass.

Shebi James Gunn is in charge now and feeling fly? Let's wait and see na.

We all know how it will go.

He'll be given the free reins to work on his projects and maybe release one or two films which likely will bomb seeing as they alienate their fans each day.

He'll be kicked out and another figure brought in who'll put his/her spin on the whole DCEU mess.

As usual, some of us faithful fans will come here happy and start lauding this new head going as far as calling them genius and the best thing that ever happened to the DCEU; we argue, fight, apportion blame to the previous head and how the future will be bright, "again": typical rinse and repeat.

Minemrys:

You sabi the package jare.
Nothing pain me pass the fact we were so hopeful early on, imagining what could be and being stupid enough to troll a better company who had their house in order.

abduleez1:


Na official slate me I wan see first. I wan check something.

pu7pl3:


Him talk say na till next year na

Minemrys:

The final decision is made by those with the money or in control of the money. It's like saying Xavi signed Lukaku to Barcelona and shielding Laporta and the board from the blame.

AnfieldFan:


It makes sense....Gunn will do his thing, Battinson won't be in the DCEU...

Gunn wants everything to be his brainchild, so Matt will probably see off his trilogy, or he might get sacked along the way while Battinson gets incorporated by Gunn..

Minemrys:

Lol, don't pin my words on any group bro. I hardly log on Twitter to follow some online fanatics. That I said, I base my argument on the reality that we obviously had his wife pop in for a cameo in black Adam that obviously could have used another actress, and the fact that he casted a woman he was dating in a studio project.

If she's cast as another character, it's not far fetched.
Of course I said I wasn't a Snyder fan knowing what you all describe as Snyder fan. And if you have been here earlier on, you would know that there are levels to me being a Snyder fan.

I am not pained that Snyder left, let's clear things out, am pissed because the whole idea of a shared universe of connected DCEU stories was a sham I invested my time in. First and foremost I am a DC fan, then perhaps a Snyder fan, and I don't go trolling or even monitoring troll comments online.

pu7pl3:


Omo that tweet doesn't make any iota of sense and Battinson is at risk of getting axed too.
Reeves is probably scared for his future too.
Everything is bleak and there is no hope.

Nickshrapnel:
Issues like what? Low box office?

You know this one na en you dey shout Gunn Gunn since abi.

AnfieldFan:



Dwayne wanted to be a consultant of DC studios, not like Gunn is now, more like a Producer role where he would have substantive input on DCEU going forward...

There was lobbying involved at this point, Zaslav calls up Peter to be the creative and business head of DCEU...Peter tells Zaslav that he can't handle the creative aspect and asks if it's ok to bring in Gunn, Zaslav OK's the decision...
At this point, nothing has been signed yet but Dwayne is aware WB is close to hiring Peter and James, so he goes double or nothing on Black Adam, does everything to bring Henry(they have a business relationship) back so as to prepare a massive cinematic show down between them( doesn't want to get involved with Shazam as a side villain, wants to be the big gun)...

At this point, Dwayne knew James would want to do his own thing and he would have to be subject to his creative direction, so he leveraged his star power into getting WB to get Cavill back in hopes that this would make Black Adam a huge grosser and the studio on seeing this, would let him take his Character and characters( Superman, Justice league, Shazam family etc) whose stories revolved around Black Adam whatever direction he wanted creatively..
I.e - While Gunn would be doing what he was brought in to do, he(Dwayne) wouldn't be subject to him...

Unfortunately for him, BA bombed hard and Gunn as anticipated is cleaning house, leaving him in limbo...
He's also burned bridges with Diesel so the Fast & Furious franchise is out of the equation too ..

There are rumors he's trying to get the Mummy Franchise going again because he wants something that identifies as his brand cinematically...

Na my legend wey you dey talk about laidis?
Using The words "limbo" and "unfortunately" to describe my legend? Chai

AnfieldFan:


Battinson is under Matt....And seeing as some fans are incensed now, Gunn won't do anything to further divide the fan base... The tweet is saying, "Gunn and I( Matt) know this one isn't under his purview" ... Hence, in my earlier post, I said the only way I can see issues coming up is if Gunn wants to incorporate Battinson in the DCEU...
