The only Gunn-DCU project I have any interest at all in is Superman.
I'm not counting BATMAN II, which was already in production, as a part of this "new" slate.

I'm not trying to be overly negative man either.
It's just that most of this stuff I have never even heard of.

It is only by the merciful hand of the silver fox that your Batman continues to exist. Tread lightly, lest the boy king insert random body horror into this sophomore entry. Reeves is impotent, he too must bend the knee. Hee hee hee...

Hee hee hee... to be fair, i doubt they would have let gunn pull the plug on that, and definitely not on my beloved JOKER franchise im not expecting more of either franchise in the future, though

Batfamily is actually a turn off for me, probably because of my secret hatred of child actors.

The Batman Part II. I love the first and am eager for more.
Superman Legacy. Cautiously optimistic because I love Superman. But unless Gunn has another hidden creative side to him I don’t see him being the right man to write the thing.
Batman Reboot #7. Wait and see. Could be cool seeing Batgirl and Nightwing on screen. Also some outlandish villains to contrast the Reevesverse.

A staunch traditionalist and ultra-right conservative, Freeze's powers will be exchanged for the elaborate metaphor of a "cold society." Hee hee hee...

Maybe some of the new stuff like Booster Gold or something else I know little about a may be missing out on.
Don’t give a damn about superman or the Batman 2 and I’m dancing on the grave of Wonder Woman 3. I tried to tell you all something was wrong with the first one, but nooooooooooo, we had to pretend it was awesome ;-)

The Batman part 2. I unapologetically loved the first film, especially that ending.
Reeves absolutely gets Batman. Better than Nolan and Burton.

I’m particularly amused by the idea that I wasn’t on to something. So let’s see, I call it deeply concerning and sophomoric conceive which apparently landed in just such a way as to escape attention, and then the second film falls apart for blatant sophomoric conception, and then it becomes so problematic they don’t even want to bother. It really is a disaster all into its own in a franchise of disasters. I’m perpetually amused.

While the sequel wasn't successful...it's hardly the first comic book movie where this has been the case. You hatred for the Wonder Woman films seems very OTT. I'd be amused by it...except I find it more odd that you concentrate a large percentage of hatred towards this one female-led DC superhero film franchise.

Its got absolutely nothing to do with it being female led Chalice, and it’s absurd for you to even suggest so. I’ve insulted Zach’s films for far longer, suicide squad, and others so you’re wrong. You’re dead wrong and it is extremely low class for you to try to play the sexism card with me. And please notice that I hold Black Widow as perhaps the best entry of phase 4. The only thing odd here is your defensiveness. I insulted WW on its merits and have done so in detail. I don’t give a damn how successful it was. I fully accept how successful it was, but it’s totally irrelevant. The point is that I’m not afraid to be in the minority opinion so long as I’m honest about what I see, and what I saw was the competence to make the disaster that’s unfolded, just like I did with Zach when I saw MOS. Did I make a lucky guess twice or do I kind of maybe know a little about what I’m talking about? Because it’s female led my ass.

Booster Gold for sure gets my vote. It’s fun, it’s got a main character who’s just douche enough to roll your eyes at from time to time but not so much that you hate him. There’s great potential there for a satisfying ‘becoming a proper hero’ journey. I just kind of love his whole premise.
Lanterns is second on my list because I was a huge Green Lantern fan for a time. Mostly during the Geoff Johns years. GL along with Flash became the two DC comics I looked forward to picking up most in the late 2000s and if they can recreate some of those moments in live action then I’ll be thrilled. There is such deep lore with the GLs but the one thing that has me kind of worried about it is the emphasis that it will be a ‘terrestrial’ story. I don’t need huge space battles but I’m worried they may try to keep this one too grounded, for lack of a better word.
And I’d always be curious for a LDM movie. Especially since I’m mostly unfamiliar with the character. Lol

Did I make a lucky guess twice or do I kind of maybe know a little about what I’m talking about? Because it’s female led my ass. Sexism is a frequent and easy criticism to levy against those who are critical of the first Wonder Woman film. Wonder Woman gets a lot of praise for what it is not, more so than what it is. It was not cut to the point of incoherence, it isn't a glorified music video, and, most importantly, it has a clear and almost compelling character arc. It is not a remake, a reboot, or a blatant cash grab. And it has color grading in the visual spectrum of light instead of looking like someone threw cough syrup all over the screen. It is also resolutely optimistic - everything that most of its sister films in the DCEU from the era is not. Unfortunately, you don't merit a parade down 5th avenue for simply doing what a superhero film is supposed to do. It's a good film, but it's not Citizen Superhero.
