So many people don't get what Ellison and Skydance want from DC.
MOT and The Batman Part - ii are the last 2 movies from DC's era where they attempted to differentiate themselves from Marvel. Pray and hope those movies final cuts end up being directors actual original cuts.
I will never understand why tri-star made godzilla erotic, like that was literally one of the studio notes when they asked for the redesign and I still don't get it
The shittiest part of this is that James Gunn is being replaced so that the new Israeli owners of DC Studios can ensure they don’t put out any more movies like Superman that criticize genocide, apartheid or other American/Israeli politics
One important thing to point out though that many missed in #Skydance’s announcement is that, whereas #DCStudios under Gunn & Safran were their own, independent division in which they called the shots with no oversight, now under #JeremyLatcham’s leadership, the division will be reporting to Skydance Film Division’s co-chairs, #DanaGoldberg and #JoshGreenstein.
So #DCStudios’ autonomy is over. This isn’t just a CEO replacement. It’s also a structural & hierarchical shake up.
And as we know very well by now, there is no such a thing as total creative freedom when you are not fully in control, unless the several cooks overseeing you in the kitchen are happy with what you are cooking.
Man got an R rated superhero body horror movie made and had Luca Guadagnino signed on to direct a superhero movie, whilst giving Matt Reeves as long as he needed for Batman 2. Say what you want about him, but you’re not getting that under Ellison’s henchmen lmao
