The Last 48 Hours Has Shown the Anti-DCEU Media Bias Bloggers like to laugh and claim there isn’t one, and then go and call DC fans “assholes”, but the last 48 hours has shown that there is definitely an anti-DCEU bias in the movie reporting media. Anything even remotely negative, even if it’s completely untrue, is plastered everywhere with huge sensationalist headlines in order to try to fuel the “Marvel is great, DC is terrible” mindset so many film writers seem to have these days. Just look at what has happened over the last two days: 1. News came out about a potential “Elseworlds” style Joker origin movie. Despite them doing a pretty cool origin idea in the comics that everyone seems to like (where there were three Jokers over history, explaining his different looks over the years), everyone swore that no one wants a Joker origin. 2. Then word came out about a Joker/Harley Quinn movie. Again, despite “Mad Love” being one of the single most popular graphic novels DC Comics has ever published, people claimed that no one would want a movie potentially based on that story. 3. The biggest example of an anti-DCEU frenzy in the media and social media came last night where people mis-construed comments by Matt Reeves in an interview to claim that The Batman wouldn’t be part of the DCEU and wouldn’t feature Affleck in the cowl. Things got so bad with that story, The Hollywood Reporter even had to delete part of their reporting and issue a correction. Today Matt Reeves confirmed the movie is set in the DCEU, but it won’t be filled with Justice League cameos. It’s a Batman movie, not a crossover. The last 48 hours has shown, in particular the Batman story, that it doesn’t matter if a DCEU story is completely false; if it makes DC look bad people will slobber all over it and spread it far and wide. The sensationalist headlines get all the clicks and social engagement, while the eventual retraction will get ignored. DC fans aren’t “assholes”. Bloggers are in their attempt to fuel some stupid Marvel vs DC war just for website clicks and Twitter shares. 1 Like |

@kingrapha, to cap it all, the shit is about to hit the fan. A lot of closet marvel critics have already written down their bad reviews against Justice League premiere. Snyder can and will never make a great film according to them! |
Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by AmuEwu: 2:53pm On Aug 25, 2017 |
Kingrapha: Have the critics been harsh on DCEU ? The answer is HELL YES But the truth is that most people, including hardcore comic book fans don't want to see a Joker's origin film Hell even Christopher Nolan refused to tell us about the Joker's origin. Like i said before, in The Dark Knight there was absolutely no background story about the Joker. They didn't even give him a name. Unlike in Suicide squad where they showed us hints of his origin and they where also calling him ''Mr Jay" ......... And now between those two films, which one ended up better. Let me deviate from superheroes a bit. The truth is that most people don't want to know about the origin of the bad guy, they only want to know that the bad guy was conquered. Let me give you an example. We have lots of films about the heroes e.g Chris Kyle (American Sniper), Alan Turin ( The Imitation Game) and many more. Have you wondered why there's no film about Osama Bin Laden.(He is even a bigger Legend than most people that have gotten their own films). I don't mean a film about how he was conquered, but a film about what made him the terrorist master mind that he turned out to be. The answer is because most people do not want to understand or sympathize with him. Now back to the Joker. This is the same logic that applies to the Joker, most people prefer him as a guy of mystery. Let's face it, the Joker's mysterious past is one of his biggest lures. What exactly do you think makes the Joker the most popular super villain ? He has no super powers, he's not trying to take over the world like most other villains, he can't even win in a fist to fist combat with any hero. But still he is the most feared. The reason is because you can't predict him and this is what makes him special. As far as i'm concerned WB and DCEU are doing a lot of things wrong. They know that Batman is their biggest money spinner, so they have decided to make everything about Batman to have its own film( They're literally milking the character to the last, and very soon there'll be nothing special about Batman anymore) Today you'll hear of Harley Quinn movie( Gotham City Sirens), the next day its Joker origin movie, the very next day Nightwing movie, the following day Joker and Harley Quinn (Mad Love), and we still have a Gotham TV show running. Please whats the meaning of that, is that how films are produced, when you have the most popular superheroes on the planet. You can hardly hear of the Flash movie, or Man of Steel 2, instead its Harley Quinn and every thing related to Batman. It hardly makes any sense. So what happens to other heroes, or their fans do not deserve to see their own movie. One of the best ways to out wit your competitors is to forget about your competitors and focus to be exceptionally good at what you do. The humble truth is that WB has not been good with DCEU. Just look at what they're doing with Justice league. Till now, i doubt they know how JL would end. If the ending scenes of JL turns out to be the convoluted mess many are expecting, they'll blame ''marvel critics''. Tell me is it ''marvel critics'' that have been responsible for WB cutting out important scenes from their movies, is it marvel critics that made Batman turn into a spree killer in BvS. Is it marvel critics that made the phenomenal Joker a mere gangster in Suicide squad ? Believe me WB and DCEU have alot of problems, but the least of them is marvel critics. They should just focus on what they are doing. 1 Like |

^^^ Although, I agreed with many of your thoughts above. Somehow, your second to the last paragraph is very debatable. The creative choices in the current DCEU is heavily inspired by Frank Miller's and Nolan's Dark knight. We might say the audience felt that it wsd rather too serious and broody. Batman, for example, had 20 years of history between Dark Knight and BVS. He was in the darkest moment of his life, an angry and frustrated crime fighter. There's a video in the previous page where these choices were explained. As for gangster Joker, I never got to see much of him in SS. Perhaps, if WB had left his scenes intact, I will have something to say. |

Batman and Harvey Quinn, has anyone watched that animated live action yet? |

Please check out my post on why I think the DCEU is hated https://barnabasoyarero..com.ng/2017/08/why-does-media-hate-dceu.html |
Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by Kingrapha(m): 1:41am On Aug 29, 2017 |
Alfred actually said you..... Am thinking everyone dies and flash run back in time..... Lois is the key? ...... I think he learns he can time travel during the course of the movie and he does it in the end..... It could set up flashpoint... Guys what are your thoughts

Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by GreatEvilBeast(m): 9:28am On Aug 29, 2017 |
Gotham has done a good job explaining the jokers origin story |
Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by AmuEwu: 10:02am On Aug 29, 2017 |
Kingrapha: Everybody dies I somehow love the idea. I want to feel that the heroes are in real danger, and not fighting for sports or exercise. But I don't think this would happen. This is as dark as a superhero movie can get, and at this point I doubt WB would accept this kind of idea |
Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by Kingrapha(m): 10:14am On Aug 29, 2017 |
AmuEwu:I'll love if that happens it just fan theory for now, but imagine it the league was useless against Steppen wolf and imagine them against darksied, it would be a clear marker of the difference btw the DCEU and the mcu.... Come to think of it, steppen wolf did kill superman batman and wonder woman of Earth 2 in the comics... |
Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by Kingrapha(m): 10:18am On Aug 29, 2017 |
TonySpike:you mean that Bruce timm's disaster |
Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by TonySpike: 12:04pm On Aug 29, 2017 |
Kingrapha:I doubt WB is willing to do dark themes again...lol |
Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by Kingrapha(m): 3:04pm On Aug 29, 2017 |
TonySpike:shame tho.... What's you thought on Alfred saying you said you'll come? |
Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by TonySpike: 4:30pm On Aug 29, 2017 |
Kingrapha: I have seen different theories. But a zoomed view of that scene showed that the shoulder of whomever it is, is red. This leaves us with either superman, supergirl or flash since they all have red shoulders. However, some theories believe there might be more than one person that appeared to Alfred. |
Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by TonySpike: 1:03pm On Aug 30, 2017 |
Kingrapha: On a second thought, it could be a green lantern in the person of Kilowog. He has a red body and shoulder also...just saying! |
Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by Minemrys: 1:28pm On Aug 30, 2017 |
TonySpike:1. That shoulder doesn't lo0k broad or big, and d0n't forget kilowog is a big guy. 2. Its clearly a cape seeing as its blurry. |
Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by xtin007(m): 5:04pm On Aug 31, 2017 |
Minemrys: I'm thinking either Superman or Aquaman(wearing a red jacket or something) also because by the look of things he will be the last member to agree to join the league so it makes sense for batman to know he might show up. 1 Like |
Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by Minemrys: 6:46pm On Aug 31, 2017 |
xtin007:that shoulder l0oks like that of a w0man, and d0n't forget jas0n m0m0a's a big guy with straight up shoulders. |
Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by TonySpike: 10:38am On Sep 01, 2017 |
I just read that Greg Berlanti is in charge of Titans. Why would they give that SJW guy another series to destroy? He has ruined all DC series with LGBT themes except The Flash. What da heck? |
Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by xtin007(m): 12:54pm On Sep 01, 2017 |
Minemrys: At this point, it can be anyone either a man or woman, WB sure is teasing fans with this scene, making it feel as if its Superman. Don't u think that feels kinda predictable some how? Anyway it might just end up being Supergirl at the end. |
Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by xtin007(m): 12:56pm On Sep 01, 2017 |
TonySpike: I don't even see why WB would want to do a Teen Titans series, why not make it a movie and let it be part of the DCEU. |
Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by Minemrys: 1:42pm On Sep 01, 2017 |
TonySpike:who cares abt a titans series? They're just creating a superhero fatigue. |
Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by morsadh(m): 2:21pm On Sep 01, 2017 |
efilimu: You mean, mixed... |
Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by Kingrapha(m): 2:40am On Sep 02, 2017 |
Minemrys:speak for yourself brother...... Nightwing is my favourite comic book character so I'm hyped... |
Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by TonySpike: 6:11am On Sep 02, 2017 |
I don't like Greg Berlanti's cheesy style of movies and series. I heard he is also in charge of Black Lightening. It was him and and Geoff Johns that messed up Green Lantern in 2011. |
Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by TonySpike: 2:20pm On Sep 02, 2017 |
Brand new picture update for Justice League.
