I've been sick of superman a long time ago. Only time I want to see Superman is if Batman is whooping his ass again with kryptonite brass knuckles, thats it.
DC doesn't really need Superman since they got Captain Marvel

Thread is trash. Beat it nikka 
Replace DC's most iconic character with Shazam brehs.

Hope there's puddin' in the clink...
No thread jack but is Supermayne "tinted" in the OP?
Supes is not relevant anymore reallyThread is trash. Beat it nikka
As someone already mentioned Captain Marvel had a popular comic book before DC got salty and sued because he was doing better than Supes. Had a very popular tv series and now has a decent DC movie. Hes just as iconic as Batman, Wonder Woman and SupermanReplace DC's most iconic character with Shazam brehs.

Yea nikka just shut up. Its a reason you posted this here instead of the film room. You got no idea what you talking about

I will make the same thread in the film room. I ain't scared of yall. You know I'm right. Captain Marvel is better
Iirc you can steal Shazaam's powers by either being in contact with him when he calls for his powers or just jumping in front of him and being hit by the lightning that gives him his powers
That can be a pretty big weakness
Whereas there are versions of Superman with no weaknesses, not even kryptonite

But the main version of Supes has many vulnerabilities. Kryptonite, lead, magic/supernatural and Batman
What DC needs to realize is that their bread and butter is the visceral and grimey themed side stories.
They had potential w/ Suicide Squad but they embarrassed themselves w/ trying to be silly/funny OD like Marvel. Someone needs to tell them that jokes don't make the movie, great writing makes the movie.
Had they maintained a more dark tone w/ humor at the times that would make sense...shyt would have been really good. I actually thought Jared Leto's joker could have been serviceable.
I need to see more Harley Quinn, though.
(I only pawg in gotham.
)
Joker can be the X-factor that really concretes DC's direction.
----------------------------------
I ranted too much, sorry. End of the day, that Shazam shyt is lame. Let me see how Ledger's Joker got his scars. Let me see a movie about a man's journey from a horrifically severe back injury go through hell to recover and you only truly find out it's Bruce until the end. Let me see a live action Killing Game that is ONLY focusing on the Joker's actions and his fascination w/ Commisioner Gordon's daughter - I want that shyt to be a sexual thriller on some Silence of the Lambs shyt.
DC needs to be the film version of Game of Thrones.

Superman and Batman are involved in so many stories that its necessary for them two to be recast and built up otherwise DC is clueless and just banking on single movies.
I agree, when they try to be like the Marvel films, they fail miserably. They shine when they make artsy, dark-themed movies.What DC needs to realize is that their bread and butter is the visceral and grimey themed side stories.
