We both agree that DC is "willing to commit" - when was that an issue in this thread? A better discussion is "Is it a good idea for them to
do it in this manner, and do you think it will be successful?"
Isn't that what the entire stated purpose of the Movies forum is?
If I had known we were arguing over WHETHER OR NOT WB/DC was making the WW and Cyborg films, I would not have wasted my time. I find it hard to believe that that was the standpoint you've been sitting on this entire thread, somehow believing that others did not understand that WB was going to make films with these tropes of characters BEFORE MARVEL and that Marvel should have somehow altered their Master Plan long ago to accomodate certain character tropes.
Take it up with Ike Perlmutter. He's the money man!
(EMILL to play the Flash, TROCK confirmed as Black Adam) {nm} Oct 15, 09:26
Fritz: [EMILL] is [FLASH] 2018 Oct 15, 09:27
Awesome, he's a great actor {nm} Oct 15, 09:39
and nearly as intimidating as D.J. Qualls {nm} Oct 15, 10:01
My trade history is showing FLASH delisted today. I cannot find any news or announcements. Anyone know why? {nm} May 26, 16:59
no new batman or superman until after 2020? thats takes some guts {nm} Oct 15, 09:29
I read this as "in addition to" their plans for Superman and Batman {nm} Oct 15, 09:33
that would make more sense, but they do mention more standalone ones for those characters, but no dates {nm} Oct 15, 09:37
but after Superman kills Batman in Dawn for Justice, nowhere for his story to really go {nm} Oct 15, 09:40
you're right. from the press release Oct 15, 10:21
what else is WB going to spend its cash on? {nm} Oct 15, 10:33
Can't tell if you're trolling with the "First!" argument or being serious... {nm} Oct 15, 11:21
Serious. Fans have been riding on Marvel being unwilling to take a chance on solo female and BPNTH. {nm} Oct 15, 11:24
They were either waiting for a good movie, or ten years old. {nm} Oct 15, 11:43
Elektra was Fox, not Marvel/Disney. {nm} Oct 15, 11:46
that wont change how marvel sees themselves. Plus, whats more important to them is to do it right, not just to do it {nm} Oct 15, 11:26
But they have no problems making solo movies out of their White Male superheroes. {nm} Oct 15, 11:56
Wow -- you are reading my points completely backwards. Explanation inside: Oct 15, 12:11
Every movie is a risk, the caveat goes without saying. The point is DC is willing to commit, but Marvel so far doesn't. {nm} Oct 15, 12:31

i think you're misunderstanding. they want every movie to be good, but they are looking at a much bigger picture than "first" Oct 15, 11:59
Sorry, but it doesn't fit the plan right now is an excuse. Why weren't they in the 10-yr plan to begin with? {nm} Oct 15, 12:03
BPNTH was hinted at in IRNM2 and had several scripts so was obviously in the plans, yet still no follow up. {nm} Oct 15, 13:02
BTW, this isnt the first non white solo superhero. But why let facts get in the way of fanboy excitement! {nm} Oct 15, 13:17
You know I meant this current gen. Even then, Steel, Blade and Spawn are all WB. {nm} Oct 15, 13:32
yeah, don't sacrifice your cookie-cutter comic book movies' mediocre quality at the altar of diversity, Marvel! {nm} Oct 15, 11:55
WW and Cyborg are being introduced in SUPE2 so moviegoers will know them. {nm} Oct 15, 11:22
its called hubris. I really hope BvS works {nm} Oct 15, 11:27
Marvel would really have to hustle to get a Captain Marvel movie out before WONDR, but plenty of time for BPNTH {nm} Oct 15, 11:47
Actually, JMOMO is Polynesian so AQUMN would be their first non-white solo superhero. {nm} Oct 15, 12:14
WB slate: [SUICD] 2016 [WONDR] 2017 [JLEAG] 2017 [AQUMN] 2018 [SHAZM] 2019 Oct 15, 09:57
