It's like we're starting from scratch .

"Hey Barry, how's your father who was imprisoned for the murder of your mother?" Same old, same old."

We should know that this type of abuse happens in most large corporations. It's not a DC vs Marvel thing.

Yes. Also, Jeremy Renner is clouded by much more serious accusations and controversy than anyone on the DC side, and Chris Pratt is a part of a sketchy religious organization which has been a point of discussion for some time. And previously there was a whole regime change with Ike Perlmutter. Not to mention the James Gunn mess. So it's a part of all big business operations.

That some other organisation has big issues shouldn't detract from discussing slightly smaller issues in another organisation that we might have a closer association with. Doing so would be a form of whataboutism.

It's good to be aware of it though, so one isn't surprised and ends up in denial whenever some form of abuse, structural discrimination, harassment, or similar rears its ugly head.

Exactly. The corporate structure is built for hiding abuse.

The Batman is moving to 2022 now, and Shazam: Rage of the Gods, The Flash and Black Adam are all being delayed as well.

The Batman is moving to 2022 now, and Shazam: Rage of the Gods, The Flash and Black Adam are all being delayed as well.

Stupid COVID! This is annoying... Just when it looks like we’ll get a third DC film in a year, stuff like this happens.

2020: WW84
2021: Suicide Squad
2022: Batman, Black Adam, Flash
2023: Shazam 2, Aquaman 2?

WB really needs to fix their scheduling

Edit: 4 years between the Shazam films? 4-5 years between the Aquaman films? Get it together DC!

There's nothing WB can do about COVID.

2020 is the worst year ever! It just can’t get any worse! I don’t get WB scheduling though. Batman is now releasing in the same month as Doctor Strange 2. Maybe Black Adam will get a May 2022 release day? When does Aquaman 2 release now?

Basically, any release date given right now should be viewed as hugely tentative. Things will be sorted out, but likely not until there is a reasonably effective vaccine out there. Right now, the dates are merely placeholders.

At that point, Billy won't need another actor to play his grow-up self.

It's not DC's scheduling that's the problem. Covid is to blame.

I hope Sandberg just rolls with the actors playing Billy and Freddy getting older. They're both terrific and it'll honestly add to the comedy.

As long as they don't look old enough to where there isn't enough of a distinction between their adult forms, it should be fine.

You must not be a student of history if you think this year cannot get any worse. I know this is really inconvenient for us as DC fans wanting to see these adaptions, but come on, man. It can get a lot worse, and with 2020's track record, I don't want to list options for fear that they'd occur.

I hope Sandberg just rolls with the actors playing Billy and Freddy getting older. They're both terrific and it'll honestly add to the comedy.

It would be kind of funny if when they transform when already adults, it's still the other actors and one of them mentions "what? It's the easiest way to get in shape."
