10 years after Zod’s snapped neck, Martha, “some kinda Suicide Squad”, CGI moustache, rennouncing your wish, the hiearchy of power changing, and Speed Force PS1 graphics, the DC Extended Universe finally comes to a close. And it ends the same way it started - with a Rotten score.

Looking back at all this wasted potential, what would you have done differently with the DCEU, and what are your hopes for James Gunn’s DC Universe?

    Amen. Though, tbh, I did shed a few tears during love and thunder, so it wasn’t a total failboat.

    I like Gunn’s style, but any time you just hand the reins to a single director, the risk of them cackling like a mad scientist and creating an abomination is high.

      Love and thunder is, in part, a story of the pain, loss, and grief of watching a cherished loved one wither away with cancer before they or you are ready. It was always going to pull tears no matter what else happened in the movie
