I know it’ll never happen but I think using these Ultimate and Absolute universes would be the perfect way to refresh the cinematic universes when things get stale. Like, if Darkseid is the final boss of the DCU, they could really breathe new life into everything if they have him merge with the Spectre just before he dies allowing him to create his own universe in the movies after the new DCU runs its course. Makes it a seamless way to recast all the major characters and reboot everything without retelling the same origin stories. But really, I just love this version of Wonder Woman and would much rather see her on the big screen.

Since the ABSOLUTE versions are somewhat "changed/twisted" versions of characters with a hint of who they are classically, I wonder what lind of twist could be interesting and work for Constantine Perhaps a man of science that doesn't even "believe" in demons and other supernatural elements? Yet he still succeeds in whatever he does with a scientific approach ahahahah And people kinda hate him because he keeps NOT believing anything and trying to explain with a scientific approach and perhaps in the past this led to a major mistake or something (to keep a similar backstory) where science really failed and an innocent was severely punished by it and all
