I am not sure if WB will have any movies for next Christmas, so could the Superman trailer debut for Joker 2?????

It comes out July 2025 so a teaser trailer probably wouldn't happen until December

So, there's a Lexcorp...

I dont think it was a power play, I think it was part of the plan and Gunn knew about it all along. If it was a power play the picture would seem more rushed or forced. This picture is what Gunn wanted us to see.

Yeah, that's what I meant. Probably seemed more dramatic using the term power play lol. Pretty much what all involved wanted, including the marketing team and Gunn alike. A total studio move.

Also wow, that one guy's not kidding about how much downtown Macon has changed. I went there a couple of times back when I was in school in Savannah (nearly 20 years ago ), and it looks like I'd hardly recognize it now.

Would bet money that tall thing is LexCorp tower:

It needs to be a very LOOK AT ME building, sticking out like a sore thumb on the Metropolis skyline.

There's a skyscraper in Atlanta that is actually shaped like an L.

Gloriously followed by Superman's last line to Lex in the pilot: "If you ever need to find me, all you have to do is look up."

Aren't most skyscrapers shaped like Ls?

Don't get too excited, Central City Park is a real park in Macon.

Don't forget the back and forth between Clark and Lex about Alexander the great and the battle of Gaugamela. Honestly while Lois and Clark was pure 90s cheese (watched the 1st season again in French a few years back and it's kinda fun) and Dean Cain was godawful as Superman but that L&C pilot episode got CK/ Superman right. The writers, whoever they were, understood what makes the character tick.

You could make a (lower) case for that.

I’m still coming to grips with the whole idea of DC “building toward something.” I am so over and done with the concept of shared universes at this point. I find them to be a convoluted and tired concept. I just want good movies, and not gimmicks.

But I’m probably in the minority on that and I’m sure others are glad to get a DCU that’s interconnected.

Yeah I have never been a fan...

I think it is cool Scott Snyder got to go to set

Speaking of all connected:

I still think DC and Gunn can do mid and post credits scenes for each DCU film or TV show in production but they just have to be smart about it or it has to have meaning towards building to something

It is a gamble because...every DC Movie that has had a post credits scene has ended up failing
