Is James Gunn Right For DC?

[@Girlwithmetalgear]

Ive been sayin it for years. Snyder wrote his superman to be the Eradicator, barely smiling, killing more people than necessary and having no sense of real humanity or hopefulness. Gunn has proven 5 times in the last decade that he can write a compelling and relatable character and their struggles without compromising the humor, story or tone.

[@Chadcat180]

Dont forget boring asf and no personality

[@kadegetslaid634]

It's like Snyder's favourite dc run is injustice and James gunns is justice leauge international 😭

[@jjeteuati264]

for me in my opinion, I think Snyder superman is a nice change up to superman, a darker adaptation that is masked with action spectacle, provocative religious refrences, great score, hiding all of it's story flaws, iffy dialogue and over explained exposition

After watching Guardians of the Galaxy, Peacemaker, and The Suicide Squad, James Gunn is the Judd Apatow of comic book movies.

[@sonicmedrano7084]

If Superman 2025 is a good movie (which I think it will, I even think it will be really good), and if Lanterns, Brave and the bold, Paradise Lost, and Supergirl are all at least good. Imagine what he could do with a Justice League movie!! It's been proven that he works really well with multiple characters.

I am so excited, I wasted this whole year just waiting for it to pass so next year could begin and marketing starts up

[@thehybrid3947]

I think it could be ok honestly chances are 50/50 I mean if he can pull off different tones for the characters then that's good but so long as he doesn't over do it especially regarding darker characters that don't need to be lighter like in The Suicide Squad for example it's good but felt like it was too light hearted especially when you got 2 murderous assassin characters that are more serious and sure they play it but sometimes they slip into being more light hearted too often. The Flash I can't blame him for not doing anything about however if I were him I would have delayed the film and given it more time or just cancelled it knowing that the public hates Ezra and would rather not see the film but like I said he couldn't do anything for that as he joined later in it's production.

[@Cozzzzylion]

Yeah, I’m not sure if this will be a hit or not. It could go either way, but I think James Gunn will give it his best which is all he can do. I'm not sure how the dark characters will be handled but he did say that this universe will have different tones so everything shouldn't feel light and jokey. I know what you mean because I do want Swamp Thing to be dark with a mix of horror. We shall see what they cook in the kitchen. I don't think canceling The Flash movie would have been a good idea since WB spent a butt load of cash on that film and they would have lost a ton of money by not showing it. Yeah Ezra made that whole situation a living hell.

[@Coconut_Prrson]

This has always been a non criticism to me. Like yeah he made a movie on his style but Gunn is a huge comic books fan. He has experience reading books where Punisher and Squirrel Girl share a universe. He's always proven to understand how the genre works at its best, and fix what parts are considered its worst

[@TheRegibump]

He had a slight hiccup when he declared the Flash as the best superhero film, but knowing what can of worms that film got into he probably was mandated to say it just to try and get their money's worth (plus that movie probably still retained some meddling from the short lived Rockverse). Moral is, he’s had a great track record on Super Hero comic book films, but he’s still human and is about to direct his first Super Film that’s not a niche character (I don’t think we need a debate on Superman's star power compared to the Guardians or Peacemaker) meaning I’m willing to give him the chance with upmost confidence.

[@Cozzzzylion]

@@TheRegibump yeah calling the flash the best super hero film of all time was not the best since the movie did not reflect that. I thought it was good but not at the level that Gunn was making it out to be. Maybe he saw the original cut with Henry cavil in it or where supergirl appears at the end of the film but from we saw in the end, the hype was not there. Yeah Gunn has a lot on his plate so the pressure is on but based on his track record, I don’t feel that nervous. The whole world is gonna know next year if Gunn’s got what it takes to make a Superman film!

Honestly MOS felt like they grab all the powers that sups have but left out all the character behind him. I mean I get it that some might prefer Snyder's take, but to me it just felt so boring. I mean, Sups isn't my main favorite DC hero (I personally like the Flash...which I am disappointed in the Flash movie as it wasn't a flash movie at all), but I like his humanity, his symbol of Hope. being more human than godlike in terms of personality. Snyder's take isn't that at all as he takes superman more dark and gritty that devoid what is Superman. Sure, you can have the power of the superhero you are gonna make, but if you are going to ignore the character, then that's not the hero you like.

Truth is, as an adult who grew up with Chris Reeve, I didn't want a repeat of that. The Reeve films as an adult seem dorky and childish. I don't need something to mirror the comics to enjoy it. One of the reasons the Nolan Batman films are the greatest comic films ever IMHO, is they didn't dumb it down for the arrested development, "it better be just like the comics" crowd. The idea that the Suicide Squad, or Peacemaker, was great writing compared to MOS is kinda silly, even though I enjoyed both. Peacemaker was a bunch of dick jokes and was saved by Cena's excellent comedic timing. The Snyder hate is reminiscent of the hate for Nickelback. A lot of people hate Snyder and his Superman because it seems like the group-think thing to do. Just like the hate for Nickelback.

Regardless here are my thoughts on Gunn: the man is a FANTASTIC storyteller, that is definitely the biggest pro here. the guardians movies are fantastic, even the third (which for me was way too dark but i can recognize the great storytelling even though I didn't care for it, a bit ironic I know). The casting looks genuinely great, the half that SHOULD be in the movie, the rest, well... that gets me to my next point. Gunn likes the lesser known characters, because he can do whatever he wants with them, it's why guardians worked, it's why suicide squad worked, but Superman isn't either of those, and his movie shouldn't be like that, and yet we are seeing him "fill out the universe" with others that frankly evoke that same ideology. I don't really care to see the Authority on screen, or the Terrifics, when we don't even have a justice league yet. And sure, being the storytelling guru that he is, he'll probably roll that all together into a story leading into the forming of the justice league down the road. but his whole DC slate is like 90% lesser knowns, which sure, fine, DC needs to mix it up, but man, way to leave the main characters out to dry. I don't want a Superman who is a side character in his own story is all I'm getting at. My second con is more of a nitpick, I'm mostly on board with the new look, but the collar man... they took away the ONLY thing that makes superman's costume different from anyone else, it was the only thing that ties his look back to his strongman inspiration. The other nitpick I have is with the broccoli head Clark, hahahahahahahahaha... he looks so stupid like that I'm sorry... with all that said, I'm both skeptical and optimistic. I do think he'll tell a good story if nothing else.

[@Cozzzzylion]

Hey, I totally get where you're coming from. Man of Steel has a special place for a lot of fans, and I respect that. Henry was a lot of kids and adult's favorite superman growing up and I don't want to strip that away from them. I'm really hopeful about Gunn because of his storytelling skills, but I understand your concerns about focusing on lesser-known characters. It's going to be interesting to see how he balances everything out. Let's keep our fingers crossed for a great Superman story! And yeah, the broccoli head Clark... haha, I don't mind it for the dorkyness of the look but I also don't blame you for finding it ridiculous! Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

I have to disagree here, he kills Zod out of nowhere? A family was right there he had to kill him there was no other choice, even so called super good characters have to do things they wouldn’t normally do for the greater good, also f the trunks

[@Cozzzzylion]

That’s totally fine! I respect your opinion and understand why Superman had to stop Zod to save the family. It just came out of nowhere. Nothing in the movie prior showed he would be willing to cross that line. I view Superman as this inspirational character with god like power that helps all life. But like Zack Snyder said, I’m living in a dream world.

James Gunn is perfect for DC he knows how to blend serious moments and comedic moments. I don't get why people say all he does is comedy. Guardians 3 had plenty of serious moments. Hell I think James Gunn directed Brightburn didn't he? I trust James Gunn he seems very passionate about the DCU and that's great. My only complaints so far are the suits they kind of look goofy. But I'm sure they'll look better in future films. I'm hoping we can live in a time where both Marvel and DC are thriving. That's what I want.

[@Cozzzzylion]

200% agree! Gunn's mix of serious and funny moments is spot on. Guardians 3 was proof of that, and while he didn't direct Brightburn, he produced it, which shows his range. I think the suits look great but perhaps when they touch them up in post, they will look even better for us. Here’s to both Marvel and DC thriving!

[@callmejacob3234]

@@Cozzzzylion Hopefully the DCU can fix DC's reputation. DC deserves to be on the same level as Marvel. DC is the goat of comic books. It's sad that they are stuck in Marvel's shadow.

I can't understand why people can't understand Zack Snyder's Superman. He's just a more realistic version of Superman, if he exists in real life.

[@Cozzzzylion]

@@rod2.005 I think people wanted a more optimistic and classic Superman even though that was clearly not the direction Zack and WB were trying to do at the time. I think I heard Zack was going to do an arc for Superman to get to become to hero we all know and love, I just personally wish his dc films were better written to get me more on board with Superman and have more of the core aspects of Superman. I did like his justice league movie though!

[@Chadcat180]

So being realistic is superman become a boring unlikable cringe loner with no friends ?

[@rorylumley4727]

I am not sure on superman. The extra heroes is worrying and it might be a lot of set up.

[@Cozzzzylion]

@@rorylumley4727 James has always been good with handling big cast. Plus many films have a large cast of characters, the difference here is that we are familiar with the side characters so we feel the focus is going to be taken away from Superman. It just depends how the story is written and the execution. Also Gunn said the focus is going to be on Superman so I’m not worried.

[@rorylumley4727]

​@@Cozzzzylion I'm kind of worried superman maybe bounced around between a lot of setups and be a very passive character. The dcu does seem messy with constant changes so not 100% on trusting gunns statements.

[@thewarrchitect4121]

I see James Gunn as a large part of the reason comic book movies are failing nowadays. He made a successful Guardians Trilogy. Cool. Now every single comic book movie is goofy, unserious, and practically a comedy. If you look at the most successful superhero movies, they are usually dark and take the world that they are in, seriously. That’s a large part of the reason I enjoy movies from DC like the Snyder Trilogy, The Dark Knight Trilogy, The Batman, and The Joker. Those movies had heart and emotion. The characters weren’t winking and smiling at the camera the whole time. They reflected the complexity of human emotion. All I see from James Gunn is goofiness. Take James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad and Peacemaker. All it really did was produce joke after joke with a mediocre story attached to it. None of the characters in his movies are taken seriously. It’s all a joke to him. So it’s hard to get invested, when the characters in the movie don’t even take the world they are in seriously. As recent examples, I think The Batman and Joker’s success were successful largely due to the fact that the characters and the world were taken seriously. They weren’t just another goofy superhero movie like many other recent DC releases. If the DCU is going to succeed, it needs to be more serious and not filled with cringy/goofy comedy. Unfortunately James Gunn was a pioneer in goofy and cringy comic book films. I’m hoping that Superman 2025 won’t be like that, but we won’t really know the tone of his universe until we get that trailer. Either way, I’m a DC fan at the end of the day, so I will always be hopeful for the future of DC.

[@Cozzzzylion]

I get what you're saying. I've heard about how people feel James Gunn started the trend of making comic book movies goofy, but I also heard the same argument for Christopher Nolan when he did the dark knight trilogy. How every movie since had to be realistic, serious and dark. It's definitely a balance to strike. Personally, I enjoy both styles and I'm hopeful that Gunn can bring his unique storytelling to DC without losing the seriousness that makes characters like Batman and Joker so compelling. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
