1) The Most Exciting Movies Are Still To Come
Building on that point, the main reason to still be hopeful for the future of the DCEU is that the most exciting movies are still to come. As opposed to yet another Superman or Batman reboot, the upcoming films on their slate offer a lot of things we haven’t seen before on the big screen.
Obviously, there’s the previously mentioned Justice League, which arrives next year. As does Wonder Woman, the very first cinematic solo adventure for the 75 year old character. Other ones like The Flash, Aquaman and Cyborg are also on the way. And let’s not forget those that aren’t talked about a lot right now like Shazam and Green Lantern Corps.
[zergpaid]The former will be intriguing to see, for how they manage to integrate the kid-friendly hero into the more adult DCEU. The latter, meanwhile, will hopefully right the wrongs of the 2011 Green Lantern movie. And if the superhero boom hasn’t burst by next decade, there are presumably plenty more where they came from.
With such a varied and rich source of material coming up, things have got to pick up for the DCEU soon.
