Ah mate I was gonna do Batman and Justice League but after Supergirl bombed I thought it was important to do Creature Commandos Season 2 and Gorilla Grodd first
James Gunn was reportedly planning a JUSTICE LEAGUE or BATMAN film as his next project after MAN OF TOMORROW.
He’d also outlined a third SUPERMAN movie.

He's crying because he witnessed the twin towers get hit instead of the baxter building.

Francis Lawrence says he is “more hopeful” that ‘CONSTANTINE 2’ will happen now that James Gunn & Peter Safran have left DC Studios.
“Not that I want anybody to lose their jobs… We have a script, we’ve been wanting to make it, and the people that were at DC were an impediment to us making it.
So, we are now more hopeful as of yesterday’s news that maybe now there will be another opportunity.”

Damn.
There were some other reports Gunn didn’t really share his future plans with him when they met.
The guy came in prepared.
David Ellison was reportedly in talks with Jeremy Latcham to take over DC over a month ago before the WB/Paramount merger closed.

And I was sold on Gunn when he was initially announced. With the way Safran spoke about Superman & Gunn talked about a shared universe.
Talk is cheap. I’ll wait & see what he puts out. It’ll be interesting to compare 4 years in.
Okay, I am sold on Jeremy Latcham.
He gets it.
If you want to make good superhero movies, the audience has to actually fall in love with these characters. It can’t just be a bunch of good special effects with lousy storytelling. It’s all about the heart.
That is what made Iron Man and the other Avengers movies he was involved in so successful.
I’m stoked for what he comes up with.

James Gunn can finally tell us all how much he hates The Flash movie.
618 Million is not enough for a Superman movie. It’s just not. It should be making a billion. Minimum.
I was expecting a couple of more flops till Gunn got fired. But it looks like Supergirl & whatever numbers lanterns did, was more than enough to do him in.
One of the reasons Skydance replaced James Gunn and Peter Safran as the heads of DC Studios had to do with box office.
• ‘Supergirl’ was a massive bomb this year.
• ‘Superman’s $618M box office was not impressive to Skydance either, as the film lacked “pop culture impact” in their eyes.

James Gunn’s biggest weakness as a comic book film producer was perhaps his inability to sell snake oil. He keeps making it obvious that he hates how SUPERGIRL turned out. Meanwhile, Feige will look at you in the eyes and say RDJ Doom was the plan all along with a straight face.

Paramount execs when they met with Gunn and he started talking about some “Creature Commandoes 2” and “Polka Dot Man tv series”

Can someone explain why Thanos had to reignite a dead star and slaughter 300 giant blacksmiths to forge the Infinity Gauntlet, while Tony Stark built his own version in a single afternoon?
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The question misstates Avengers: Infinity War events. Thanos had the gauntlet forged using Nidavellir's active forge before massacring the dwarves; the star was later reignited by Thor's group to create Stormbreaker.

"clichés are boring"
Me when when I eat a really good sandwich
No. Killing the love interest is just cliché.
What about Rose with Jack in Titanic? Ghost, A Star Is Born?
Do those have a term? Refrigeration? This is stupid.
