How DCEU fell apart with Zack Snyder and WB



It's no secret that Dc has an issue with making its own universe and should have thought of that before making their own movies and having faith in Zack Snyder but Warner Bros and Snyder have a clash behind the scenes regarding the tone of the DCEU and trying to catch up with MCU and it's storytelling to its audience but how did it fall apart. 

Back in the early days of his director days following his success, of dawn of the dead, Zack Snyder has directed 300 by Frank Miller based on the comic book novel and later would have done Alan Moore's Graphic Novel Watchmen while concerned of the two movies that Snyder have direct audience begin to have asked of Snyder's take of the superhero genre which he land the director's chair after making Legends of the guardians' Owls of Ga'Hoole and later Sucker Punch even making Man of Steel back in 2010 after Owls of Ga'Hoole was a success well while Snyder's Films of Sucker Punch LOTFOOGH and Watchmen all but lost money and cause the higher ups at WB start to realized that their plans with Snyder wasn't really going to work as TDK Trilogy have finish up and then focus on Superman title as Man of Steel that later open in June 2013 but that critics and audiences were divided over the character and tone that the film about Superman have done while the movie itself was a success from the box office the movie has Christopher Nolan involved over the story later a sequel was sort of announced but regardless of the movie itself it was replaced by Batman V Superman Dawn of Justice that film was even more polarizing like it's the predecessor around 50% of the box office records on its opening weekend then Warner Brothers were more concern of the fans that are getting super annoyed with the changes after finding out that its 30 minute was removed and then the IMAX Print couldn't provide an 165 minutes and never got it's 3 hour runtime, back in Summer 2016 the talks of Justice League were going to move forward and trying to catch up Marvel Cinematic Universe then came real trouble was starting to come. 


Right after Justice League wrapped it's principal photography and the changes were being made and the movie was going to be around 140 and 60 minutes Joss Whedon was approached to write additional material, but in May 2017 Snyder's Daughter Autumn Snyder committed Suicide, Zack try to move forward and grief over the loss of his daughter but couldn't focus on the film which result of Zack Snyder to leave production and Joss Whedon took over and the film was released in November 2017 but didn't receive well of what the fans want and a cliffhanger ending that the movie shown didn't really made fans pleased right after the fandom demand for the film and the movement Hashtag released the Snyder cut and cause the movement to be an online toxicity movement that Snyder and Ray Porter to have disavow the behavior. 




So now it's 2022 and not much has been said of an issue the situation of the Snyder cut was put into from online toxic behavior of the fandom and now the film was released on HBO Max and the plans Snyder's sequels were discussed upon but i highly recommend watching Owen Likes Comics' videos about Zack Snyder's original plans of his own trilogy something that Avengers The Dark Knight Trilogy and Sam Rami Spider-Man films that didn't happen due to a family situation and studio demands and DCEU going back and forth of such rumors or being restarted or removed that doesn't make sense and not going talk more of it so whatever happens now that things have died down and whatever happens with Snyder and Warner Bros and the future of DCEU.

Ten Years of Tron Uprising Motorcity Randy Cunningham 9th Grade Ninja Detentionaire and Green Lantern

Can you believe that it's been ten years after Tron Uprising Motorcity Randy Cunningham 9th Grade Ninja Detentionaire and Green Lantern have come out for over TEN YEARS. I know it sounds crazy but looking back of how they were good in the days before they got canceled over one season or for other reason it's a shame that it never had the conclusion and wow feels like one of my favorite animated shows of 2012. Green Lantern so good that it would have been like the DCAU from Bruce Tim who wrote the Batman animated shows and Justice League it had a really cool CGI and storytelling but it's really ashamed that it never got a second season after the disastrous movie that came out in 2011 which we don't speak about and Season 2 never happen but it was pretty cool to see the lantern crops that we never got to see much of other DC Shows and Movies. 

Randy Cunningham 9th Grade Ninja was unlike any other show that i have seen while i was going through school i had a cool animation even it's opening sequence that was really good and the song of the show fit like you were in the 2000s Randy Cunningham is seek to been chosen as a ninja of Bayville and his best friend Howard is the only one that knows that he is the ninja I really like this show on Disney Xd and this was Ben Schwartz voice roles before he done Sonic the Hedgehog sure they’re other voice actors that are recognized before on show some I know some i don't really know i remember watching this back in the 2010s with shows like Tron Uprising Motorcity and other live action shows that were good or show mainly the bad animated ones but we won't go there. 

Detentionaire felt like any other crime series that talks about exploring of conspiracies groups indivduals and this fit like a clone high show in canada and the show had some unexpected twists and turns of the show and a crime that lee didn't commit I honestly like this show cause it was more of a crime show than crime drama mixed with Conspiracy Detective high ranking officials and any type of genre that was done before in the past I plan to talk about the show one day

Tron Uprising was one of Disney show you may have remember it from 1982 Tron movie and Tron Legacy from 2010 just two years ago back than Uprising is more of Cyberpunk and Superhero show yeah superhero even I didn't know but it talks about Beck a young program and realized that Clu must be stopped and takes on the role of Tron from the program himself Tron as well and is a renegade and some think he is dead or reborn yeah its pretty much confusing it was a fun show before it got canceled after being moved without even have a second thought of it, not only that but some scripts leak of a TV movie would have talk about what happened only a few have been released from one of the writers of the show and tweets about It and is yet to release more also this one had Qurro in and we would have see what happened to Beck Dyson And the fate of Argon City and everyone else maybe the scripts will be released one day. 

Motorcity was Disney's Mad max film mixed with Blade Runner well Phillips Dick this was like Dystopia Or Futuristic Car racing talks about Deluxe Detroit now replace the Detroit from down below and now a group of teenage racer plans to talk down a authoritarian dictator of deluxe Detroit sounds like any other show that would have select this one I really like this one this one was a good show and I wish that it would have got a second season and see things would have turn to be. 

I plan to talk about these shows I just want to do my own ten years of these shows and wish they got a second or third season maybe they will who knows.

The Original Sonic The Hedgehog Movie (90s)

So when Sonic was first announced to be a movie sometimes it was said to have been released around 2016 before the changes made to the release date and the leaks of the design and later redesign but did you know that some time ago there was going to be a film about Sonic set around the 90s well release in the 90s if it happens and pitch back in 1994 to the studios of MGM Trilogy Entertainment Group and Sega which they like meaning Sega but we'll get to that later anyways. So let's talk about the movie itself and what could have happened and how this might have worked somehow just a little heads-up there's been no concept art nor designs of what sonic would have looked like since back in the 90s and I'm gonna paraphrase it just for time's sake. But a little bit of history back in 93 during the cartoon show itself Michealene Risley was newly appointed back than discussed of how negotiated with Hollywood producers about supporting the project she recalled then either SEGA President or Vice President Tom Kalinske and Shinobu Toyoda were in talks of a Sonic movie but Tom was against the idea since the damage from 1987 Masters of the universe cause the toy sales to go down and later the critical failures of Super Mario Brothers and Streetfighters affect the reputations and franchises but Kalinske know the risk after telling it to Shinobu and that a bad movie can affect a franchise and it's brand but Sonic was so willing to stay strong and there was fear within and despite the concerns Sega were excited for the idea and timing of the movie was going to be either live-action or animation negotiating with Sega and MGM and Trilogy Entertainment Group struck a deal and Producer Pen Densham was the executive producer of the planned movie, after the deal was made Richard Jefferies was told to come up with a screenplay after he written The vagrant for MGM back in 1992 and had work with Risley in Marvel Comics after trying to work on a Silver Surfer but things with sega were doing so great after they had issues with Sonic X-Treme which was going through development and want the Sega Saturn to tie in with the upcoming movie and Sonic was going through computer games like heavy use of computer generated imagery and Jefferies's treatment had references of the games which Josh's papers was about a World War 2 pilot name Sonic that was killed in a freak accident when he tired to break the sound barrier that was a reference to the technical files of the first game that provide Sonic The hedgehog original backstory. 



Plot

The film talks about 12-year-old Josh Pinski his family is going through a divorce and he is presenting a rush work of his historical work and his teacher tells him that he has tomorrow to fix the work or his parents are gonna be called in, he came back home who his father Hal owns an apartment and he is a scientist as he his working on XRI (Extremely Radical Intelligence) that works on artificial intelligence that has the ability to bring virtual reality after dinner Hal left for a research piece of hardware Josh heads over to XRI after failing to help him with his work Josh gets his Sega Saturn to play Sonic X-Treme then suddenly the XRI brings in Sonic and DR Robotink causing havoc and destroying Hal's apartment and left more damage to the streets and cars Dr Eggman now out was call Dr. Robotnik his minions are out as they plan to take over the world (Of course) Sonic started to loss his powers since he is in the real world and can't stop Dr Robotnik. After the damage, Josh's parents arrive back home shocked of the damage Josh's mom arrives a argument between the two causes Josh's mom to take him back after josh fail to explain what happened and don't believe him while being taken to his mom's house Sonic follows josh. the next morning sonic and josh start a plan and need to stop Eggman's plan and they need to find the chaos emeralds something that Sonic uses to gain power which sonic gives it to josh and he wanted to use for his school work but sonic warns him about exploit of the emerald's powers until he masters it. Meanwhile, Eggman makes an amusement park call Shady Corporation and uses it to purchase an abandoned, ramshackle amusement park after renaming Botnikland amusement park (wow reminds me of a comic book villain somehow) then Eggman later recruit some school bullies into robots Eggman of them as Bullibots and Eggman orders them to find the chaos emeralds hm i imagine a version that being real from CGI. 

Anyways Eggman recruit hal to be his research and development designer using XRL Technology and Eggman uses virtual reality to draw kids attention to the park and across the town, Josh and Sonic inspect the park and found out that the kids are being turned into badniks and forcing them to find the chaos emeralds and eggman happens to use them and using xrl on Mount Everest and Amazon rainforest into digital copies and making a profit off of people and that way people wouldn't know them the bullibots caught them with sonic capture and josh escaping, after leaving Josh's parents has been capture and josh hatches a plan for everything to go back to where things were and having eggman to go back as well which has Sonic and Eggman battle and activities the XRL and has the three of them and bullibots to go into the X-Treme and a battle ensues Eggman is defeated but sonic has to be back in the world where he once belonged to and Josh and Sonic said their goodbyes Josh and his parents are reunited and later on Josh is playing his game but while that Sonic stops and gives a wink to josh while resuming the game. 


What happened afterward

So that's what the film would have been about and according to Sega themselves like the film and wanted some rewrites around the script and Eggman or Robotnik was said to be renamed around 1995 after the pitch was delivered to them. But for some reason, MGM Drop out of the project without telling so why likely due to the budget of around 150 million which cause MGM To back out of the deal or maybe due to creative differences or that Sonic was falling out of favor on the game market. Not even Dreamworks helped due of the cause of their classic animation was shut down around 2003 after the failures of Sinlad: Legend of the seven seas. 

If you want to check this out feel free to look on for yourself but I really wish this would have happened maybe if Nickelodeon would have helped out or Dreamworks Paramount Pictures would join in the project give the film for it to be greenlit go through the cast filming locations the rest goes on and on but if this was greenlit in 1995 the project would have started at that time like pre-production list of actors the team around the film later have those from Sega America and Japan then after it's going forward filming would have started around 1996/97 or 98 who knows to go through post productions trailers would have gone wild and later release around whatever it would have come out or maybe around 2001 with Nickelodeon and Paramount Pictures it's all just something I would have imagined about or would have aimed for a 1998 release or 1999 or 2000 release who knows whatever studio would announce for. As for the other Sonic movie called Sonic Armageddon yeah I plan to talk about that one later or maybe not. And the heads up here's the link of the story itself and i heard of the script being on the internet feel free to see it yourself at least we got Two Sonic movies that are pretty successful.

My original universe

So this may seen like if it's crazy or not but i had a universe plan for myself it would have been a mixed between Marvel DC Transformers Infamous The Vampire Diaries Originals IZombie Buffy the vampire slayer Firefly Supernatural Overwatch some MCU and DCEU etc. I want to try something out of my own universe where it can feel like it's connected like easter eggs not like how other studios or universal pictures fail at doing their own universe and try and fail at it with the mummy don't get me started on monster squad. 

Here's the details of it, it would have used its film elements or show elements and mostly a bit dark and mature themes. Also no these were my own universe not other characters from franchises. 


Like some background stories of the characters 

War conflicts 

Drugs 

Characters killed off or replace 

Some loosely plot games movies and shows

Maybe some LGBTQ Characters 

Mature themes like Nudity violence Strong language 

Neo-Noir/Noir 

Multiverse (Alternative futures or Crossovers) 

It would have been like Marvel and other shows before but unfortunately, things didn't really work and had some rethinking to do and those plans didn't go through and so they were scrapped and replaced or being loosely inspired by them or had to go through a lot of rewrites which became very much hard for me to write and had to try to make it look original than the one before I get called out or maybe something credit with it like the original as an inspiration I try to have Star Wars Halo and Red Vs Blue but they couldn't really work neither did RWBY, Nope and I went through with one character and later one belonging to the other one instead which I know Nickelodeon. Movies that i have seen try to make some adjustments and very different, from the source material I know it would have worked out and how Marvel and DC fail to try to do but would have been an improvement who knows. I try to get elements of Overwatch to fit in the universe after the superheroes have left or were killed in action now it's left for them to join in a military division squad and to stop an alien threat or cybernetic robotic army from a peacemaker to a strike team scientists engineers agents and commanders before it's fall would come down and the members to leave who are not superheroes just regular humans later as years would go by a superhero team newly formed under leadership of a new hero or former hero would have assembled them together with something that would have loose been based on and also the same thing with Justice League Avengers X-Men Fantastic Four Autobots (Military Team) and Various other superhero teams from Marvel and DC or other properties who knows. Yeah, kind of like how United Nations have an army of superheroes with powers regular human access to technology apes robots and mostly alien species something like that yeah I didn't go back on that and scrap it. 

I had thoughts of a plan of my own universe but since I have changed and gone back to the pages I have written and rewritten them or scrap in favor of a new one cause they wouldn't really work at it and need some rewrites which I know is hard but have to. As of the writing of this, there's much I can say of it other than I may have forgotten or don't want to give out too much info about it so many when my comic book is published and another series then I would tell more of it. Maybe i could one day show it to all of you whoever is reading this. 

Happy Easter Everyone.

How New 52 movies focus too much on Batman and Damian Wayne (Robin)

Batman and his son Damian Wayne aka the fifth Robin in DC Comics have been in every single DC new 52 movies on each of their box art for the movies if you were to look at each of their box arts of the movies and sometimes Batman is everywhere but before we got Justice League movies whereas Batman Vs Robin Son of Batman Batman Bad Blood Teen Titans vs JL and JL Dark has a bit of too much of Batman in most of their movies and Later Damian Wayne sure TT get screen time and sometimes Damian does they don't go new ways for other characters that don't have interesting backstories sure they did Superman Wonder Man Flash Aquaman and Shazam but whereas Hawkman Martian Manhunter and Cyborg beardly get little to backstory and it doesn't really interest me only no lines and sit behind the background like the other JL Characters and New 52 movies fails to tell a story or give character development and they aren't really interesting and i plan to talk about the old DC movies that had fair better stories and writing.

John A. Davis Return

So for some reason back on February 8 and 9 2022 John A. Davis had an interview with Belle Gaudreau about his career how he got into filming and animation even his current whereabouts, also the heads-up that I don't have time to write this down but feel free to look this one up for yourself. 

Anyways John mentioned talks of Jimmy Neutron Being discussed likely reboot or revive somehow nickelodeon actually like and out of nowhere being discussed around for two years which I'm trying to figure out was it between 2019 and 2020 or 2020 to 2021 whatever it was being talked about but things fell apart and resulting of the right situation to come back in 2016 that John stated of but sadly didn't had the chance well almost. But with Nickelodeon having the rights of Jimmy Neutron and the possibility of the show getting revived for a fourth season guess they can get John Steve and Keith Alcore on board for the fourth season or actually a reboot and see how things went off after Season 3 and getting the cast on board too that they seem to be interested until nickelodeon vetoed the project and things fell apart so far when the independent reveals that Nickelodeon was interested in reviving their shows even their 90s and 2000s show and two years around that statement likely would have been around 2019 after the reunion or 2020 since i don't know when or if Nick can confirmed of these talks however luck came When Mark Decarlo the voiced actor of Hugh Neutron also known as Jimmy's dad stated between November 2021 (on Discord stated a hint of a fourth season or reboot of JN) and February 2022 there has been talks of it which hell that same day but lack of time when the time of the article which you can look and see for yourself, Mark made the tweets of it back around 9:48 PM the article was back around February 7 and the article made around 8 before John made his resurface interview on February 9 Boy i have to remember a-lot when writing this down John A. Davis stated that he doesn't have the rights for Jimmy Neutron Nickelodeon does and the talks that Mark was talking about which means only talks nothing has been confirmed yet of the moment even writing this down, so who knows now despite the fact that the tweets he published were from the 7th of February before the article was published or John's Interview and even the cast's teases of the show's come back so we can hope for the best. Also since i already write about this post feel free to check it out for yourself just in case.

Confession to make

So here is the day where i reveal to you all the truth that i have autism and i told it to those around me and it's National Autism Day and yes i have autism and always felt very special to me but sometimes i had some trouble and wasn't that much of a good kid back than and i didn't know what i was back than and wish i was very different and those who heard i have autism were jealous of me and sometimes i pick a fight with them and i got into trouble and nearly resulted of me getting suspended and the school itself that i don't want to name cause of how much grunge i have against it and the people there not all of them the teachers and students were fine. 

And lately in High School after going through some special needs education to finish up i try my best to stay vigilant but not all of it went well sometimes i got into trouble and nearly miss out school work which it's very hard for me to say about it. Not only that but i try my best to do what i can try like making new friends and also dating girls since childhood I kept in contact with some of them and there was this girl that i like which we broke up in High school cause she cheated on me and claims to know that i have autism but she didn't and instead was a bad influence and then i let her go and i haven't yet spoken to her and will never will. I Did try to have another one with this person that i met in this program but in 2019 it fall apart and now here am i and not need to. 

It's been hard for me to make this post cause i never will talk much of it or talk about most of those memories and i know that the people or users and the media think of people with autism as a bad influences will they are lying and that's not true other than being jealous of them other than some of the bad ones just made us look bad which is not true and i have autism and accept it around my childhood or teenage years who knows 

To anyone out there i wish the best of luck to anyone with autism don't feel bad just be proud that you have autism and that it is a gift. 

Happy National Autism Day.
