It's almost like maybe planning giant tentpole crossovers before you have even checked to see if people like your characters was a bad idea...

I can't really agree with that


The DCEU is in total limbo right now. It's a complete disaster.

No this doesn't mean Wonder Woman and Aquaman are bad movies. But the concept of a connected, consistent universe built for crossovers is basically dead.

Meanwhile the Arrowverse is gearing up for a Crisis on Infinite Earths which nobody would have predicted back when Arrow started.

The Flash is better than every movie.

Legends S2+ is better than every movie

God no. Hell, even Man of Steele is better than Legends.

Not even close

Arrow and Flash are dramas for teen girls at this point. A few episodes of season 2 of Arrow and season 1 of Flash were good. That's it.

I don't think the DCEU isn't as bad as it's made out to be. It has issues, but most of those issues are prevalent in all blockbusters. The MCU shares a bunch of problems with it but rarely gets called out on them comparatively.
I'd say that the only good show out of them is Flash and that's still not that good. They're crap TV filled with even crappier plots. I mean, they're decent for CW shows but with so much good TV out there why waste your time on them?

Are we really at the point where people hate the DC movies so much they think teen drama with a veneer of superhero schlock is supposed to be good? Get some fucking taste guys.

It doesn't matter what you guys think about the TV shows. They're still doing way more than what the DCEU is when it comes to crossovers and having a big universe that builds up to stuff.

DC movies may as well be standalone movies again at this point. Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill and Amy Adams don't even seem to know if they have a future in the DCEU. Arrow, Flash, Supergirl and Legends are all having good seasons this year too.

Meanwhile people are relieved that Aquaman is good and there's a whopping 1 more DCEU movie set for 2019 along with a non-canon Joker movie on the way.

Is it no longer super hero masked soap drama? I dropped around season 3-4 along with all DC TV shows.

The difference being that the CW shows actually embrace the source material and have the balls to go wild with it. And I'll take the cringe levels of teen drama over Snyder's attempts any day. This is Martha!

Legends had a shitty first season but it has been an incredible amount of fun since season 2.

Legends of To-meow-meow was amazing.

Imagine being the creator of the new live action Teen Titans show. Just picture that.

I actually started watching it a few days ago. It's amazing in a "insane that they're doing this" kinda way. It's not what I want from a Titans show, but is damn entertaining for sure.
And if this is what I have to watch to finally see Robin being a badass in live action, I'm down.

Nah. DCEU's definitely better. CWverse only has 3 seasons. Flash season 1, Arrow seasons 1 and 2. The rest are garbage fire.

Ehhh. I would have thought the same after Suicide Squad but they're finding their footing right now. Making solos first, getting the characters right with limited "universe" references and then when they're ready they'll do the big crossovers
