Do You Think This Will Kill James Gunn's DCU?


It's only the second release but I'm not convinced Superman is going to make it.

Even Marvel fans have grown incredibly tired of the "it's all a big laugh" nature of their output, one that the Guardians films fully embrace. If he does the same with his team Superman film, that could well flop and then this will be next up.

If this does flop I hope they return to making (less) of the standalone superhero films, which aren't buddy team ups.

Let's face it, the best superhero films are the original Superman, Keaton's Batman, maybe some of Bales, the Maguire Spidermans (minus 3) and maybe even, the at least interesting, first Hulk film.

What do these all have in common? That's right, no Avengers style team adventures.

Yes to all of the above and the 2003 HULK movie was garbage from an FX standpoint and proves that the FX just weren't there quite yet in 2003 like they are now in modern day. I remember in 2003 when Universal released the HULK trailer at the Super Bowl and it got panned HARD

I don't see why. I mean, it might. But I think it's got a chance of doing well
