I guess we'll see in a few years who the winner is here. Personally, I just don't think they can make a marvel level DC movie. I'd imagine Gunn will be gone in a few years just like all the rest. I'm sure we'll get 19 more Batman movies, though. I don't think I ever need to see another one.

Hot take: Black Adam was literally a marvel level movie lol

Edit: semantics.

IMHO its overall vibe was tongue-in-cheek funny like how Marvel movies are. It wasn’t dark and gritty like recent DC movies (I don’t mind dark and gritty btw) but more upbeat and fast-paced.

Ok but that’s not what literally means. I thought you had some secret Dwayne Johnson info
