This is going to be an article where I share my thoughts and opinions about Warner Bros at the moment and what they should be doing in my opinion. We've been hearing ALOT of news about the company lately and its got me really excited so here goes...



WARNER BROS. – JUSTICE LEAGUE AND ‘THE EDGE’
Warner Brothers recently announced that they will be focusing on two low budget DC films a year as well as a big budget film such as Man of Steel or Justice League. These lower budget films will be from the darker grittier franchises that DC own such as Suicide Squad, Deathstroke etc. On such a low budget it is great to think that they would get actors from Arrow to reprise their roles as the characters and create a shared universe. The step after that is to put Grant Gustin and Stephen Amell into Justice League and Flash feature films and create the most unique shared universe on television and the big screen.



CW – JUSTICE LEAGUE
The CW Network handles the more light-hearted and fun characters really well with great doses of action too. Arrow is currently one of my favourite shows and I really, really, enjoyed Grant Gustin as my favourite DC Character, The Flash, in episode 8 of the shows second season. I’m really looking forward to The Flash television series from The CW and am also pretty excited about shows such as Hourman, The Avenger, iZombie and a possible Teen Titans/Young Justice Show. I say let The CW expand the DC Universe while there’s only one movie coming out every two years at Warner Brothers.



FOX – BATMAN FAMILY
FOX have announced that they will be creating a show based around Commissioner Gordon in his early years titled ‘Gotham’, my bet is; if the show does well then FOX will want to do more with it and they should! Batman will be featured in the Man of Steel Sequel and if Ben Affleck does as good a job as I think he will, then DC and Warner Brothers will want to expand that universe further. Good! Produce shows such as Nightwing, Birds of Prey, Batgirl and Red Hood and establish Tim Drake as Batman’s current Robin, this will allow for an extremely expanded universe ready for a vast array of storytelling. Expand Batman’s universe over at FOX and let the movies focus on things other than way too many side characters stories.



NBC – DARK UNIVERSE
NBC are creating a show based on Constantine and with Guillermo Del Toro’s Dark Universe film in the works it would be great if they were connected. If Constantine is a hit and a Dark Universe film is a hit (how in God’s name could it not be?) then create more shows on NBC such as Deadman, Animal Man, Madame Xanadu and Zatanna. Plus, could you imagine a freaking Swamp Thing movie??? Hell Yeah! Expand the DC Dark Universe at NBC and with a few movies in between and it will become an extremely strong franchise.

To Re-Cap:
WB=Man of Steel, Main Justice League Members, Batman, Swamp Thing, Dark Universe, Suicide Squad, Deathstroke and any other Big Feature Film or Low Budget gritty properties
CW=Arrow, The Flash, Hourman, iZombie, Young Justice/Teen Titans and other light-hearted heroes
FOX=Gotham, Nightwing, Red Hood, Batgirl, and/or other Bat-Family properties
NBC=Constantine, Deadman, Animal Man, Zatanna and/or any other Dark Universe properties

Once all of these are up and running combine them all into one huge movie/movie series and make billions of dollars from the many different demographics you pull in because of the many formats you're offering entertainment in.

Thank you for reading my thoughts and ideas leave comments below on your thoughts about my thoughts and thanks once again!

Random thought of the day. But disney should buy DC, and give them there own studio. Then buy the rest of the MArvel Characters. That way all the characters would get films

Its ridiculous to have the TV and DC universes connected. This Grant Flash, does not cut it, for one of the greatest superheroes of all time he deserves more. Wish Grant was Wally West, seems more befitting to him.

@BlackJack10 - Can you see Grant, playing Flash on the big screen and standing shoulder to with Cavil and Affleck?

Now I only watched the first half of Arrow still got to finish it. I think he did good, he's not a bad actor by any means. I just found him to be kind of, generic of a thousand characters found on the CW network. Which works well for Arrow because that's exactly what Arrow is a CW show, featuring an element of the supernatural with soap drama and young attractive actors. I think he looks to young especially to stand as a peer to Cavil's Supes and Affleck's older grizzled Bats.

Now that you mention it, I really like the idea of Krasinski in the DCCU. Not to big of a name but recognizable and could pull of the physical representation of Hal. Only problem is his acting, but I know of his acting ability from The Office, were I found his character annoying. I think Krasinski was close to getting the role of Cap. And yes I think Gustin would be a better choice for Wally in the DCCU, he has that sly humor and of course youthful appearance.
