The future

This isn’t what the critics say, but what I believe. At this moment, out of three DCEU movies, Warner Bros. hasn’t managed to meet all expectations with at least one. Of course, the hardcore fan base says otherwise – but these fans also say that all is good as long as the movies make enough money Really? Transformers are huge hits as well.

Unfortunately, Wonder Woman has a kick-ass first trailer – and I say unfortunately because all DCEU movies began this way. And I say unfortunately because Zack Snyder was the producer for all of them. So Warner Bros. needs to reassess this: Do they move forward with Snyder’s vision, even if his role has diminished after Batman v Superman was released? Or does the DCEU need a soft reboot?

Ben Affleck’s The Batman is the best opportunity for a soft reboot, even if I have no idea how that could happen. Affleck is an accomplished writer and director and, as long as he is not hurried, his movies are hits.

Another opportunity is in the Flash movie, which is set to arrive after the Justice League. A Flashpoint adaptation would erase this timeline, without the studio having to fire all the actors. Pretty much as it happened with Days of Future Past.

In any event, the DCEU cannot continue this way. Especially if Wonder Woman will undergo reshoots.
