This is what happens when money takes over and common sense is questioned. Today, I learned that Warner Bros. are thinking about DC Comics films in an interesting manner.
Here's the news from THR
The studio has closed one franchise with the July 20 bow of The Dark Knight Rises, which has grossed a strong $543.5 million worldwide to date despite the Colorado shooting tragedy (though it trails by about $25 million at the same point). Warners will try to resuscitate Batman as a stand-alone franchise and/or as part of a planned Justice League ensemble that could connect to next summer's Man of Steel.Um... reboot Batman? AGAIN? No sir, that series has ran its course. It's time to focus on some of the other DC characters.
Look at Marvel, we got Thor, Iron Man, the Hulk and Cap first and then we moved on over to The Avengers. Why reboot a successful series in hopes to draw attention to the Justice League film?
Who's over at WB right now and are they talking to DC Entertainment? This just sounds reactive and subjected to poor planning.
This is what you need to do, WB:
- Focus on the Man of Steel, maybe throw in a cameo in a respectful way.
- Work on a Wonder Woman film (She's one of the big 3, remember?)
- Design a reason why they are being brought together (take out your Avengers Kicked Our Asses notes and start sticky taping certain points)
- Find the RIGHT writers, directors and producers.
- And get this show on the ballroom floor!
See, I planned this and did it in 10 minutes. I know Warners won't listen to me, but I hope they reconsider their plan.
