Former DC President Diane Nelson Says JOKER Is The Type Of Movie WB Should Have Been Making Since Nolan

After a 22 year reign, a changing of the guard saw DC Entertainment President Diane Nelson leave the company this summer. Now, she's weighed in on what Warner Bros. is doing with Todd Phillips' Joker.

DC Entertainment lost President Diane Nelson earlier this year but now she no longer works for the company, the former executive is able to say whatever she likes (which must be a nice feeling). As you can see below, she recently took to social media to share her thoughts on that camera test for Joaquin Phoenix and said that she believes this is the type of movie Warner Bros. should have been making ever since Christopher Nolan's acclaimed The Dark Knight Trilogy was released between 2005 - 2012. 

However, when one aggressive DCEU fanboy claimed that Nelson was a "snake" for making an apparent dig at the work Zack Snyder has done with movies like Man of Steel and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, she was quick to point out that she was including his work in that initial Tweet. Do we believe her? It doesn't really matter, especially as it does appear as if Joker will be the same sort of filmmaker-driven release which isn't 100% faithful to the comic books...just like Nolan's movies! 

What do you guys think? As always, be sure to let us know your thoughts in the comments section.
