The stupidest fucking idea I've ever heard. That's like Sony trying to make a separate Spidey Universe when Spider-Man is already in the MC... oh wait. No, the stupidest fucking idea is the idiots who think that everything has to be connected. Even comics has Elseworlds stories (like Superman: Red Son) so there's nothing wrong with movies having Elseworlds stories.
And no, not everything should be connected. I've always said that WB is smart to keep the DCEU and the CW TV shows separate. That allows them the creative freedom to tell different stories without trying to force-fit them into a shared universe, unlike MCU which is dumb to try to force their TV shows to connect to the movies and failed badly at.
But how is keeping the DCEU and the CW shows smart? Even Fox is keeping their X-Men shows connected with Legion and the upcoming The Gifted. Like thisguy4000 said below, it'll get mainstream audiences confused to have a separate universe. With everything connected, it's easier for non-comic book readers to sit and watch and prepare for the next installment. A separate Elseworld universe would mean they would have to have another superhero universe to follow (isn't 3 enough?) and would be like more homework for mainstream audiences. Is WB trying to kill the superhero genre like they almost did in 97? Also, how does the MCU TV shows fail at connecting their shows to the movies? Have you even watch any of the Netflix shows? |
