They have access to magic stones that alter time, space, and reality. Bring back all the dead characters, turn Thor into a frog, bring young Peggy Carter out of the 40's into the present day so Cap can have an awkward-but-satisfying orgy with her, Sharon, and Bucky. Everything is possible.

Didn't they mention that the Throg thing already happened in Ragnarok?

I want Strange to come up and hand it to Thor "Oh hey I fixed your hammer"

I can totally see movie Strange doing this. Just in the most not giving a poo poo way possible, like he does it all the time 'Strange dismissing a pissed off Loki with 'ok we're done now, bye bye' and sending him to loving Norway was so good. (Thor Ragnarok spoiler)

Man, I really want to go into Infinity War knowing as little as possible, but the amount of trailers and clips on their way soon is going to make that really difficult.

Just re-watched Man of Steel. And while it has some problems, when it's good it's so loving good. The ending 'Welcome to the Planet' is so perfect it momentarily made me forget the shitstorm that comes after it, and had me looking forward to what should have happened instead.

If they hadn’t botched the follow ups so badly, maybe Justice League wouldn’t be the jarring, Frankensteined tonal cluster gently caress up it is.

'Welcome to the Planet' makes me so incredibly angry every time I think about it because it's such an incredible line that the preceding five hours of movie do not even come close to earning. In a better Superman story that line would have been an all time addition to the mythology of the character like the way the John Williams music is.

I forgot what you're talking about, because I literally didn't remember that the movie ends on an ostensibly hopeful note. And I was the one who didn't give much of a poo poo that Superman merks a dude, I was more offended that Pa Kent literally has an aside with young Clarkand literally tells him to murder children over risking his secret identity. But, holy poo poo how loving presumptuous do you have to be to cut from Supes breaking a dudes neck after destroying half a city to "this is the new, hopeful way forward for the Synderverse".

Unironically Pa Kent is probably the worst element of the Snyderverse because I believe the version of Superman we got does logically flow from that

I just realized that now is quite literally the perfect time for a Kingdom Come movie, while also introducing Earth-Two: have Earth-Two Superman et al like watch Man of Steel and BvS, get freaked out over how much of violent douchebags Supes and Bats are, have them invade to sort the nascent DCEU JL's poo poo out. This also sets up a CoIE movie, which you know they will do, while giving an out to recast Batman since Affleck both apparently doesn't want to do this and he's a giant liability at this point.

As far as I know CW universe is canon, its just set in a different universe than DCEU.

I think at this point the only weird thing about doing a Crisis on Infinite CW Earth and DCEU Earth is explaining why there's no Batman or Wonder Woman in CW-verse, while there's still not only a Flash, but like a billion of them, and the main one has literally the exact same name as the DCEU one.

They've referenced Batman, Harley Quinn and Hal Jordan so they've got openings. I assume Batman would kinda interfere with Gotham, tho.

Although a Flarrowverse/Gotham crossover would be loving hilarious.

He was referenced in Supergirl, (iirc when Supes shows up, but I quit watching after they sidelined Jimmy as the love interest that season) which is part of the Flarrowverse.

isn't Supergirl in a different universe than CWverse but has crossed over? Still, I guess that works well enough.

They've embraced the comic book. The recent story arc involved Professor Pyg and one of the things he did was kill homeless people and turn them into pies, which he fed to Gotham's rich.

Edit: Also this season had Alexander Siddig as Ra's who was totally over 2,000 years old.

I learned my worth, learned the places and people that matter.

Opened my eyes.
Stephen Amell fires a kryptonite arrow at Clark in BvS, bridging the CW-verse and the DCCU. Does that make things better or worse?

Also, Clark keeps talking about his cousin.

One of my main issues with Gotham is that it felt really futile. We know nothing can really change in the city until Batman shows up so that kind of lowers the stakes a lot.

Unless they kill Bruce. I’d respect that.

If they put Wonder Woman in the trailer and then managed to stealth drop Green Arrow, in a fuckin Dark Knight reference no less, without it leaking? The loving planet would have exploded.

They have apparently changed everything else so it’s not like Riddler has to survive until Batman is around or whatever.
