Okay, I've seen Wonder Woman out of sisterly duty. And, luckily for me, it turned out to be an excellent film. I still have little interest in the rest of the DCEU slate - not because I feel Marvel's offering are somehow superior. I'm sure both studios will make positive contributions to the genre as the years progress. My aversion to the DCEU is simply a profound lack of interest in their god-like pantheon of characters.
That said, there are certainly exceptions to the rule. While The Flash, Cyborg, Green Lantern and Aquaman hold little or no interest for me, here is a list of DC properties that, if adapted for the big screen, I would be the first one there on opening night.Doom PatrolThe Power of Shazam!Saga of the Swamp ThingShade The Changing Man/WomanThe Girl Who Spilt in Two: Zatanna ZataraLegion (of Super Heroes)Buddy Baker the Animal ManThe World That's Coming... OMACThe Black OrchidSaveSaveSaveSave

I'd like to point out the irony of your disinterest in their 'god-like' characters while stating your interest in Shazam. I mean you know what Shazam stands for, right? I'm down for a Zatanna movie for sure. Doom Patrol could be fun. I'd also like to see a Martian Manhunter flick.

I have difficulty maintaining interest in characters who are god-like - subtle difference. Captain Marvel is unique in the DC pantheon in that he's a boy who becomes a god-like being. He lives in both worlds and can see things from both perspectives. That makes him infinitely more interesting than his colleagues.
I've always enjoyed the retro sci-fi feel of the Martian Manhunter on paper, in practice, I find him to be flat and dull. His female counterpart is far more intriguing.SaveSave

Coincidentally I just watched the BTAS with Zatanna the other day. In Trumpian parlance, Bruce "moved on her like a bitch" throughout the episode.

Lobo was supposed to be made into a movie with Dwayne Johnson playing him. Plans fell through though.
