So are we done with the forced "hopeful" nonsense all the bugmen were pushing about the Gunnverse?

FINALLY A SUPERMAN WHO INSPIRES HOPE

Only good Supergirl is the Mona Wales version who gets beaten and banged by Lobo in a cheap motel room. I'll leave it to you to find, but she ain't so super by the end of it.
She's dead.
What is a "quirk chungus," please?

Also, Shampoo? They had a major hit in Britain when they were kids which was insanely catchy. I have literally never heard a single other song by them ever. Everyone of a certain generation in Bongland knows it. They were also apparently "big in Japan" for reasons I will not speculate about.

Hollywood only understands Nostalgia, not new things.
I only know it from the Power Rangers movie credits.

gunn was in his prime in the 90s. Tromeo and Juliet is a great adaptation. Slither was ok but looked to be the end of a tromavillian foray outside of troma.

Possible information regarding Supergirl has been leaked on the 4chan /tv/ board. It appears to be consistent with the type of content that James Gunn might author.
>film's villains are space pirate incel rapists who enslave women because they can't breed otherwise
>Kara is an alcoholic has regular drunken one night stands and mourns how lonely she is.
>Lobo appears for a bit, is patronized by Kara and has some shitty action scenes that last a minute.
>Kara and this little Asian female sidekick.
>she's also a quirk chungus who makes fun of toxic men and their dick sizes while outdrinking aliens in space bars.
>Her father and mother are written like overbearing Jewish parents stereotypes
>She also makes fun of her cousin a lot, most of it is completely mean-spirited towards Superman and the idea of superheroes
>She's also implied to be bisexual and never shown on screen.
>plot is completely nonsensical, things happen and none of it has any rhyme or reason
>villain cries near the end and says he just wanted to not be an incel before he is brutally killed by Supergirl who laughs about how much of a virgin loser he is.
>a song called GIRL POWER (by Shampoo) plays over the end credits while she heads back to Earth. GIRL. POWER.
Even if this is someone completely talking out of their ass I think Gunn and how he writes is so easy to telegraph main story beats. I know he didn't write it. However, he probably laid out all the story and does approve everything.

Who is the market for this? Do Supergirl fans want to see Supergirl as Temu Starlord? Does the average DC fan want to see a men bad film where the main character shits on Superman for two hours? What I am going to assume is that they made this film for the Barbie market. This has never worked, it will never work. Because basic white girls don't like superhero movies. They especially don't like superhero movies where the lead isn't male and isn't getting their shirt off.

You want to get women into the theatre for a superhero movie? The formula is simple. Male character who men like and are willing to go see a movie about, a blandly attractive female lead that women can imagine is them, steroids and one shirtless scene. How is this so hard to figure out?
 
James Gunn should really go back to making the edgy content he's so desperate to make
peacemaker is relatively edgy, orgies and visible hard drug use are in at least the first episode of season 2. Peacemaker in general seemed to be his attempt at synthesis of the edgy glory years and the now.
. Because basic white girls don't like superhero movies. They especially don't like superhero movies where the lead isn't male and isn't getting their shirt off.
the basic white girl now isn't a basic white girl. they all embrace the e-girl/goth/alt stuff. this is just Hot Topic superman and that will sell like hotcakes.

It gave us the greatest panels in comic book history.
One of my grandpa's was a comic guy and he was giving me a bunch of punisher comics he had when I was like 10 or something because he had just taken me to see the Thomas Jane movie and realized I barely knew dick about the Punisher, and i remember him handing me Archie vs Punisher last and going "and this, is the best fucking one" and he was right, that's probably still the best punisher or archie comic.

that superman who inspires hope thing didnt even work in that movie, all he did was get his ass kicked and complain. he even got his ass kicked by himself. and he even complained about the dog. what would have been hopeful, would have been him confidently kicking the bad guys asses, throwing Lex in jail with his own bare hands and going, nice try, bitch.

If I was a DCU character and this Superman showed up while we were down for the count in a super fight, i wouldnt be like "oh thank god SUPERMAN is here" id go "god damn it, Superman is going to get his ass kicked too and make us look worse"

Have a buff male superhero with so much super-strength that he does not wear a shirt when on duty and watch as women go bankrupt due to going to the movies too often.

That Superman does not inspire hope. He is too meta for that. Every line is said with ten layers of irony and awkwardness. I understand that they want to update that but Superman cannot wear the costume ironically. He has to be composed of 100% honesty. He felt embarrassed to be there.

the thing that's so retarded to me, is that they really just dont get it at all. They over think Supes every time. They want him to be honest and sincere, but they dont need to do all that faggotry to accomplish it. A guy was telling me "they have to show why he's cool" I was like what? well they didn't.

Ofc its my favorite superhero so I want the superwank movie, but people would get it if they made it, we've literally never gotten one. "They have to build him up" no they don't. It's fuckin Superman. Just have him be confident. The one scene in the movie that was something I would want to see Superman do, wasn't in it. which was him threatening that guy to stop his military invasion so people didnt die. Instead we saw him almost cry about it. what the fuck?

Superman should be the guy who the other heroes and characters despite how cynical they may be or whatever go "Oh shit" and "we're gonna be fine" when he shows up. In this movie, they saw him and rolled their eyes. That fuckin pussy?

They dont need to make him a whiny redditor to be cool. He should just be a badass who's happy to help.

I was on Lois' side in the movie when she was like yeah maybe this isn't going to work out. I'd be like that too if my partner's standing their ground was whining about it like a fuckin' baby. He could have said what he did confidently and without it being an outburst. Just, yeah people were going to die, I'm Superman, I won't let that happen, it's my job. People dont agree? Fuck em.
 
Supes 2025 was a MCU take of Superman, complete with shitting on his parents so that his past is tainted and he's forced to find a new family, as nuclear families have been haram in the West since the 80s or so. The fact this allegedly all ages movie has a blatant connection to the edgy Peacemaker makes it inappropiate for children too.

At the very least, it doesn't villify Ma and Pa Kent.

You do not have to show why he is cool. Have him perform an amazing feat of strength while saving people. There, you got it. Or have him tank missiles and lasers while his enemies panic and he tells them politely but firmly that what they are doing is evil and he will put an end to it.

There is nothing that shows him be the figure of confidence that he is supposed to be. Also, there should not have been a geopolitical angle. This is Gunn's activist movie, not Superman's debut.

Superman should be the guy who the other heroes and characters despite how cynical they may be or whatever go "Oh shit" and "we're gonna be fine" when he shows up. In this movie, they saw him and rolled their eyes. That fuckin pussy?
Remember how in the second Thor movie, Loki too Steve Roger's form and commended that he felt the patriotism flowing inside him? Superman should be like that. He should make you feel like you want to be better.

They dont need to make him a whiny redditor to be cool. He should just be a badass who's happy to help.
They write what they know. Sadly, they do not know Superman.

Superman should have gotten used to such by now. He can hear everyone. He should put on his big boy boots and do what is right.

Wonder Woman worked, but that was a unique circumstance of the "historic first" barring that you disregard Supergirl and Electra.

Honestly I think a female hero film could work, even one made more for women, but this ain't it. They need an angle to keep women invested and drunken space adventure doesn't seem like a good enough angle. Obviously romance is the biggest genre they could have dipped into, something even Wonder Woman technically did. There are also other genres females would like, teen drama, fantasy (they could have done like a Harry Potter or Percy Jackson with either Zatanna or WW respectively), or hell, if it has to be Supergirl in space at least make it a Hunger Games, YA thing.
Teen girl takes down government and gets a hot side piece is a popular sci-fi genre for their specific audience. Just have her and the Legion of Superheroes get trapped in a Brainiac dictatorship where she can choose between some hot muscular superhero or the nerdy weak boy Brainiac 5.

There are genuinely so many angles DC could take while remaining true if they wanted that fem movie. They could have done a Batgirl true-crime film, make the villain the Riddler since he is well loved and can make the movie into a game. Will take shit for this, but it isn't like DC doesn't have a popular villain whose whole gimmick is to turn things into a musical if they wanted to go that direction.

It takes some ingenuity to genre morph, but one would think a creative industry would be capable of that.

Nobody in Hollywood has the balls or the insanity to make the Music Meister the primary villain of a movie.

It would the most glorious disaster in the history of cape movies and I would pre-order it in 4K HDR before it even hit the cinemas, but it ain't going to happen.

Condiment King and play it 100% serious.

Add King Tut for extra hammy factor.

James Gunn hired the writer of birds of prey and the flash to reboot Batman.
