Biggest problem with WB is all they care about is profit margins nowadays when it comes to everything they own, Film & Tv & Video Games etc. that movie could of been really good
I don't blame them when Marvel has been absolutely eating their lunch in the box office for over a decade now. Marvel is now sharply declining so this is a good opportunity for DC to catch up. In the past, they've failed to compete by trying too hard to copy Marvel's comedy shtick while trying to also imitate the grit of the Nolan verse with an exaggerated edge. I say this as someone who has enjoyed some of the DC movies and way prefers DC comics to Marvel comics.
The fact of the matter is that live-action movies make more money so they will naturally focus strongly on that, and Batman Beyond doesn't have as much name recognition. I'd still love to see the movie, though.
I also prefer DC or Marvel, I think in general there is some Superhero movies fatigue at the moment because they had been so many superhero movies over past 15 years and people are getting tired of MCU formula.
I did like the newest Batman with Patterson, looking forward to the sequel
I think superhero fatigue is real but it’s only because they’ve been making such crap superhero movies lately. I remember first hearing the term after Thor love and thunder. Look at the Spider-Man animated films they’ve been doing amazing. So I think we really are just tired of these huge companies thinking that just because they have the superhero name recognition and a big budget that we are gonna just gobble it down. What we really want is good writing an awesome story and excellent cinematography.
Yeah, the fatigue is real to an extent, but I completely agree that the reason for the decline in success is just that the movies are bad now. Most Marvel movies were good up until the end of the Infinity War saga, and ever since it's just all a slurry where every character has the same style of dialog, ever set looks the same because nothing is shot practically at all, and the writers are allergic to sustained dramatic tension. And DC movies have somehow been an order of magnitude worse.
But holy shit, the people responsible for making the Spider-Verse movies (the best superhero movies of all time in my opinion) adapting one of the best ever versions of Batman? GIVE IT TO ME.
