Man I feel like DC is making a mistake having two different version of characters on film and on TV

And what point is that? There's always been different actors for the same characters in movies and TV since the dawn of comics. The truth is that y'all think the MCU is the standard instead of the anomaly, and even with that, the MCU and Marvel TV distanced themselves with having any true connection.

Lets be honest that DC realized that doing a continued extended universe cannot work when there's no foundation so they are now allowing their directors in doing their thing and leave the DC TV shows be. The only successful universe by DC is the Arrowverse and that is mainly due to it following the MCU format of starting it from one series and gradually building from it. To now it can do anything. But after WB making the Arrowverse ban certain characters and killing off others for the sake of it be on the film, it realized that it does not work and they were hurting their shows in the process, so now they're allowing freedom across the board. This is why we have an expansion of upcoming DC films that aren't related to one another, have a successful animation film studio and continuing being successful in the TV medium. And they justify it by keeping it still within the tradition of DC as containing multiple worlds happening at once.

I didn’t mention the MCU
And yes having two live action actors playing characters that are on screen at the same time is weird

As a fukking nerd, y’all sound like some fukkING NERDS

“It gives them more freedom!”
“But the multiverse!”

Listen to yourselves...the average person don’t give a fukk about that shyt

I didn't say you mentioned MCU. I think you really didn't read my post at all. I said WB was well all the other studios tried to emulate the success of the MCU and they failed. People assume the MCU is standard instead it is really an anomaly. You asking why separate versions being a mistake when this is something that's always been done since the beginning suggests the case you feel having singular actors to play these characters no matter what the medium is points to you believing Marvel as the standard.

But we have different actors play different perform the same roles in comics ALL THE TIME. And film and television always been separate from one another. That's always been the case so why it is a problem? Most MOVIE actors don't want to be on TV to perform the same character for some crazy continuity. That doesn't make sense. Why not TV stay with TV and movies stay with movies? shyt, you hardly see adaptions of TV show or films that get adapted for television where you have the same characters on both! It'll be different people performing the same characters. Just rare occasions such as Star Trek where it can happen.

I mean was it REALLY weird to have Superman Returns and Smallville out at the same time? Nobody cared because there was no such as a cinematic universe. But it's a problem now that we have a Supergirl show and an upcoming Supergirl movie?

This would only result in the TV shows being worse because the movies always take priority.

If someone has to ask "is this related to the Flash" show they can google it and find out in 2 seconds that it isn't. But again, most people who are going to watch this stuff would either already know the facts or not care about the facts.

I mean that would have been worse
Since Justice League can’t appear on the show but having Gustin in the movies
They should have it like marvel does their actors, in their contract they are obligated to appear in any and every movie or show that marvel needs them to be in.

Offtopic but I just started watching Supergirl and was it ever addressed how as soon as CW/Berlanti took over they literally murked the Kara/James relationship and brought in a cliche white boy to fukk her?

I mean Mon-El is canon I get it but the entire first season built up to Kara/James and season 2 STARTS with her suddenly not feeling it anymore.

Shyt felt mad :mjpls:

There's no reason to intertwine movies and TV. Marvel tried doing that and every TV show they put out sucked. AOS was a bust and Inhumans was a flop. They tried connecting the Netflix shyt too for what reason? And it never went anywhere.

No reason to connect the two. You can have an animated Flash, TV Flash and movie Flash, it ain't confusing unless you are an idiot
:mjlol: AOS is not a bust. And the netflix shows never went anywhere? If you don't know what is going on just say so.
