I don't get how this franchise is such a mess. I mean, I guess I do.

Warner Bros, the entire time, has been more focused on attracting people with brand recognition and big names than good storytelling.

Zack synder completely screwed up the foundation and there was no recovering no matter how hard they tried.

Rebooting it completely is for the best.

How is DCEU not considered in a storytelling mode yet?

It's not like they need to take 20 years to unfuck themselves like Marvel and Sony did.

What's crazy is WB had several chances to do a soft reboot when Zack Snyder had officially left and the tone of the movies started changing.

But they always got stuck in this weird in-between of refusing to let go of Zack Snyder's foundation while also somehow trying to pretend like it didn't happen

If this is true they need to just recast Black Adam as it seems someone has their head up their own ass too far to see anything but themself as the center of the universe.

Batman V Superman was responsible for 10 years worth of terrible DCEU movies.

The moment that movie ended I knew this disaster would take years to recover from.

It's more likely that Rock didn't want to do a cameo or had a scheduling conflict. I can't imagine he'd say, "No. I'm not sharing the screen with Shazam."

Honestly that's a rather terrible idea. Look at how Vin Diesel is said play Groot. You have no way of recognizing him in that role, yet as a famous actor I'm sure he is being paid far more. I don't think his personality type and voice go with the character of the thing either. Why waste the money when you can get a better fit actor for much less? With this latest incident, it appears he has ego problems too.

I think Man of Steel could have been salvageable, but then they just doubled down on the bleak, depressing tone from that movie and gave us the most joyless, uninteresting Superman ever.

Which is unfortunate, because I think Henry Cavill had a lot of wasted potential as Superman

It's an out of context statement he made from way back when the original Shazam movie was going to have Black Adam but Dwayne Johnson felt Black Adam had a complex enough history that if you tried to do origins for both Black Adam and Billy Batson in the same movie you'd end up with a mediocre version of both and he wanted to do Black Adam separately before sharing the screen with Shazam.

I don't think the rumors that he "hates" Shazam have any truth to them.

If we're casting him for Marvel I'd love to see him as Juggernaut.

They might just need to stop and rethink whatever the hell they're doing to cause so many movie series to get canceled. I was excited about the idea of the DCEU, but so much stuff has gone off the rails that I feel like they just need to start over.

Definitely. He could have been a very good Superman imo, and in ways was, but poor writing/story/direction/etc just started a snowball effect that destroyed not only one movie, but storylines to follow connected to it.

I don't understand why they are having such a difficult time getting away from Snyder.

Snyder didn't even have anything to do with Black Adam, but there are points in the movie where they went out of their way to make it seem like a Zach Snyder movie.

A good number of movies were already in development by the time synder left. From wonder woman, aquamen and JL off the top of my head. And most movies afterward were relativily stand alone.

After MoS(2013) WB didn't release anything until BvS in late 2016 which was a massive mistake. These actors aren't getting any younger and you have to shot gun this stuff in the early stages. Even more so because theirball middle aged.

But they was so focused on BvS they they simply lost sight of it all I guess.

People are convinced he is some kind of auteur. He has made a couple of good movies, but thematically a lot of his stuff is the same, virtually no growth as an artist. His fans have somehow convinced themselves that he is the only person who can make the DC movies.

Pretty sure he was making a joke on how The Rock should play a character who is literally rocks.
