The same WBD insiders who told us James Gunn was fired over Man of Tomorrow‘s final cut say incoming DC Studios boss Jeremy Latcham’s “involvement as a Christian means no more R like Peacemaker and Lanterns, though he wouldn’t discount a DC R-rated flick in the vein of the Odyssey.”
I wish every christian a very get raptured already and leave the rest of us the fuck alone.
Rapture already happened but only like 2 people got taken because all the Christians are shit at being Christian and all the non Christians just don’t care.
“You know these massively successful shows we’ve been doing? No more please.”
Fuuuuck, peacemaker was so good. But of course cancelling successfull shows is like ultra-crack to studios and streaming platforms for some reason…
Don’t forget just a fee years ago we had The Penguin as well. Very good, very successful, and of course will never have a second season.
“All that critically acclaimed stuff that people are watching in record numbers? Yeah fuck all that.”
Lmao. This is what happens when right wing nut jobs obsessed with adding more zeros to net worth own all media.
His… involvement as a Christian? Weird.
I mean not really? Ellison’s aim is to make WB/HBO into The Dailywire so yeah, this makes unfortunate sense.
Look forward to the next Superman movie to adapt Superman Smashes the Klan and taking it a very different direction.
So they want to take a service with 120 million subscribers and make it more like one with a million, the rich are definitely smart and in touch.
Same bull shit with Twitter.
These jokers make these hyper conservative services that fail, and assume they just did not get traction. So the strategy becomes to buy one with an existing user base, and convert it to be hyper conservative.
But then get all shocked face when it collapses too. Because the problem isn’t getting traction, it’s that conservative media is shit.
Propaganda is the goal, not profits.
Look at CBS when the take over happened.
I see the propaganda and the ratings that followed.
I’m this close to dropping my HBO and using a VPN to access Crave for my gay hockey drama programming.
Sounds like a great way to invoke an investor lawsuit. I expect a lot more of that come next year, even.
A million and one things contributed to my deconstructing from Christianity. One of the smaller, more humorous in retrospect was my pastor saying watching Daredevil would be a serious sin, inviting Satan himself into my thoughts and life. I thought at the time, this collar obviously doesn’t know anything about Daredevil and is just making a judgement on the name. Yet he claims to speak with the authority of God. Could it be? Maybe just possibly? This dude is just a lying liar who lies to make himself important to the congregation?
May this asshat ruin DC so thoroughly with his Christianity that it leads millions of more people to question what is true.
If the pastor had claimed watching Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner was the sin because they weren’t putting God’s gifts of acting to good use, I would have been more keen to listen.
This is going to put DC behind by two decades now.
So is man of tomorrow not going to release? Because I honestly loved what Gunn was doing. Supergirl was meh, the actress did an amazing job with what she had to work with it was just a weak script.
Man of Tomorrow is still coming out. They terminated Gunns contract early specifically to give them time to finish MoT without him. Whether that’s because it wasn’t MAGA enough or because the movie was genuinely bad is unclear.
This would be a shame, I really enjoyed Lanterns
firstly how trustworthy is this site? all of their articles are self-referencing.
anyway, what a farce. just as DC seemed to be on a decent path. Imagine if Disney fired Feige because Iron Man 3 sucked.
Iron Man 3 was bold directorial storytelling.
The audacity of playing Eiffel65 over the MCU logo.
I doubt this firing had a thing to do with movie financials at all.
Apparently DC wants to speed run turning DC into bland late stage MCU too.
I’m hoping the upcoming Dr Doom movie resets the MCU and they get back on track with quality over quantity. I liked DC’s new direction under Gunn despite one big flub, not perfect but at least it was breaking new ground with R rate material that the MCU wasn’t doing.

So basically what they tried to do with Dawn of Justice? Skip the build and go straight to Avengers
