Henry says his Superman will now be "enormously joyful". Randall's wish is coming true!

[Ben]

I would hope so, after coming back from the dead. Something to be thankful for, eh?

[Randall]

Smile, darn ya, smile!!

[Daniel]

What is a Warner Bros. Merrie Melodies, Ken.

Oh wait...

"Man of Steel II: Zack Who??"

[Ben]

Zack Smiler.

Flash runs to June 16! Same day as pixars elementals, week after transformers and two weeks after spider-verse with the same multiverse plot getting released first and three weeks before indy 5!

Next summer's going to be packed!

So, flash will have to fight spider-man, pixar and optimus prime opening day and indy 5 two weeks later!

No pressure.

I think Transformers and maybe Pixar are the ones that will suffer here.

[gaastra]

Don't know, a lot of people really like the transformers trailer, and this is a new ip Pixar film not a sequel or spin-off Pixar. Don't count it out yet! WB clearly did!

[EricJ]

But aren't Transformers and Indy BOTH Paramount?
Competing with yourself is a bad idea, and a strange, strange world...

[Randall]

Paramount is not involved with Indy. It's coming out from Disney.

[Ben]

…who clearly don’t think people want to see Indy *and* Pixar.

Because, you know, animation is for kids…

Batman beyond movie?

[Randall]

Lots of news. Black Adam may lose money (honestly, what did they expect?), but The Rock says it'll make $50-75M; regardless, a sequel is in doubt. Wonder Woman 3 and Man of Steel 2 may now be dead after all. Cavill filmed a scene for Flash, but it may be dropped. Jason Mamoa may go from being Aquaman to playing Lobo (admittedly a much better fit).

Such a mess. It seems like Warner/DIscover/DC will be looking forward to having a clean slate once Shazam, Aquaman, and Flash all come out. Complicating things are reports that the Flash film may actually be awesome. However, they will likely use Flashpoint as an in-universe excuse to reboot everything.

Only just two days ago Gal Gadot tweeted how she was so grateful to be playing Wonder Woman and can't wait to share her next chapter. So if true, poor timing!
