It might be less money, but DC's already stepped up in the animated films department. The MCU movies are way better than the DCEU movies (with the exception of maybe one), but the victory is also its cost. I care more about Chris Evan's Captain America than Captain America, whereas I continue to care about Batman and Superman played by no specific actor.

The animated films come with less champagne wishes and caviar dreams, but they're silent money-makers and reliably entertaining. If they can't pull together good movies, then the animated films are hitting the mark without swinging above their weight class. The DCEU movies made a lot of money at the box office but they suck, so short-term gains (even dizzying ones) aren't everything.
