Catch up

Maybe this is the biggest problem with the DCEU – trying to play catch up with the MCU. And this is also a problem for the fans, comparing the two distinct universes from this point of view.

But Warner Bros. can only screw things up if it tries to equal the shared universe from Marvel. Wouldn’t it have been better if they were actually planning all the movies, without interfering with the schedule each time the fans demanded it?

Maybe it would have been better to have solo flicks for the heroes before the ensemble movies. Even if that meant drawing even more comparisons to the MCU, everybody would have been accustomed to the new versions of the characters.

And it wouldn’t have been so extraordinary to see a violent Superman or a gun-wielding Batman.

So maybe we should have patience and understand that, despite whatever we may think, Warner Bros. needs to take its time with the DCEU.
