Yeah thats the other thing that drives me crazy

Why not do a Woder Woman,Flash or Aquaman movie? I will never get that

So far the only DC universe I´m at all interested in is the current TV Universe with Arrow and the soon to air Flash show

Marvel's Cinematic Universe took at least 3-4 years in the making, from Iron Man in 2008 until Thor in 2011 (if you don't count Avengers). They took it slow to develop it and like you said, the movies are varied and encompass different genres. Thor does fantasy, Cap does period action and political thriller, etc.

Actually I think it's fine if they jumped straight in in the beginning with a Justice League movie. But they chose to start with Superman, so they need to develop him properly.

If the quality of the TV universe turns out as well as the second season of Arrow has, I'm all for DC putting their best efforts into that. Especially since it'll mean more focus on the characters that will inevitably not make it into the movies.

But what if...gasp...they cancel the shows in order to put the characters into the movies?

Remember the Bat-embargo?

DC won't gamble on a Wonder Woman film, I can't see them using any of the Birds of Prey any time soon

I dont think they will do that especially since Gotham is coming soon. It would be hilarious if they announced a new show and then immediately cancel it in favor of the movies

I was thinking of the Flash, actually. The Bat-embargo was so stupid, no Bats villains to not conflict with the movies.

Yeah I dont think they will do something like this ever again. We got the League of Assassins in Arrow and the Gotham show will have a ton of Batman villains.

I think the Flash will be fine, depending on how well the series does of course

Anyway, didn't the Bat embargo have to do with the fact The Batman was airing as well? It wasn't just solely because of the movies.

Personally I love a lot of the Marvel movies but everyone loves Avengers because all the characters came together in it. For hardcore fans it's awesome that the universe had a slow build to it but honestly the reverse can work too. My friend saw Avengers first and then watched all the movies that came before it afterwards.

Honestly with everything Superman has been in for the last I dunno how many decades people know Superman they don't have to dedicate a whole movie on developing him. They need to build up everyone else even the smallest action can show development of a character. (For example in Kamen Rider Gaim; When Zack first transformed into Knuckle; just how he acted and gave up what he wanted to do to protect people and his heroic nature made him my favorite character of the series more than everyone else on the show. Another example is in Avengers; Hawkeye barely had screen time in the movie and he was my favorite character just by how he was in the final battle.) So just one bit of action is all it really takes for all the characters in Batman Vs Superman and into Justice League.
