    Some think they're probably cutting anything deemed woke in 2022 just for DC. So goodbye to the CW verse and the new batgirl movie.

    I can't help but feeling we're heading into some dark times for DC content.

    The only good thing about this is that it’ll pretty much end the career of hack producer JJ Abrams.

    Well WB Discovery are shelving everything. Unscripted and scripted shows alike.

    Reality tv is scripted.

    If anything, they roll it into a subgenre of the new service, whatever it is called.

    Zaslav is apparently pissed at him specifically for not delivering anything so yeah he’s definitely out. Nepotism babies who are loyal company men like him always find a home somewhere however. He’ll probably go to Apple.

    Wouldn't be surprised if they cancelled Flash next.
    I think Batfleck’s return may show that the opposite is true and they plan to lean even harder into the already in place shared universe. Zaslav is trimming the fat but I don’t think he wants to start everything over again. Too much of a financial risk.

    With Batgirl, they didn’t like what they were seeing and had the opportunity to trash it and take the tax break.

    All Hamada’s plans for post-Flashpoint probably won’t happen.

    That’s just wishful thinking from gamergate sites like Cosmic Book News and the internet knuckle draggers.

    I wasn't even thinking of the other Batgirls but Babs as Oracle in BoP. At this point, Oracle in live action has pretty much the same record (1 good showing) as Batgirl (1 good showing, 1 terrible showing).

    You'd think by this point Abrams would've produced something.

    I doubt we get a BoP anything with the current regime.

    I never had HBO Max, apparently I never will. I keep thinking about sports, here in Latin America HBO Max has the Champions League, being far behind Disney+/Star+ which has Premier League, NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL, Copa Libertadores, La Liga... etc and etc (yeah, they have almost everything).

    Aquaman 2 and Shazam 2 might get delayed

    Now it’s getting interesting. If Aquaman 2 comes after Flash will they switch back to Keaton or keep Affleck as the Batman cameo?

    None of the excuses for cancelling the Batgirl movie make sense.
