    Then every DC movie would've been about traditional family values.

    They’d probably treat Superman with far more respect as well. DC as a whole would be a much better fit at Disney to be honest.
    Both WB and Disney had sexists in charge for a while who didn’t believe a female lead superhero film could make money, why do you think it took so long for Black Widow to get made.

    WB cracked first, but I don’t think being owned by Disney would have gotten WW a movie sooner. Maybe an animated cartoon, though.

    Hope that never happens. I'm still not comfortable with Marvel being part of Disney despite their movies being successful financially.

    HBO Max wouldn't be nearly as great as it is. Titans would not exist as is. There wouldn't be amazing animations like Harly Quinn, or alternative great movies like Suicide Squad. It would have been a hot mess. All animations would have proably been outsourced despited disney starting off as an animation company. The bugs bunny reboot would be him hanging out with Mickey and friends. Definitely no tom and Jerry reboot and if they did Pluto would prob take the place of the pitbull. Basically a mess.

    How was she echoing Wonder Woman?

    There would also be no Nubia, no brazilian wonder woman, and definitely not a book as diverse as the lastest green lantern run.

    Does this seem ideal?
    As opposed to the current output of cheaply made and unmemorable animated movies that are mainly Batman, Superman, or Justice League movies?

    No Poochie animated series and no Injustice animated movie is a win in and of itself.

    You sure? Those sound like characters Marvel or Disney would want.

    They barely seem to want Monica Rambeau, Blue Marvel, Storm, characters who should be at the level of wonder woman and superman but crickets. I mean think about this, Storm in herself is already a princess, super powerful, etc. If any character has a built in disney princess movie with style written all over them it would be her but where is it? Marvel has two of the most prominent lgbt character in wiccan and hulking but they would never get the star treatment harley and ivy got in harley's cartoon on Max. Justice League has been having lots of diverse cast members but look at the cover for Avengers Forever. Marvel don't want what they have so i can't see them wanting Yara or Nubia.

    Hell even the batman webtoon has diversified the batman family while marvels online offerings are pretty much all white heroes and a shark.

    Considering how mixed-to-bad Titans generally is, and how much it’s been reduced to a Batman adjacent show I struggle to see how that would be a bad thing, exactly.

    And isn’t DC kind of a mess anyway? There’s several shows taking place in a different universe all at once, lol.

    I don't mind them taking place in several universes as long as i enjoy the results. Suicide Squad 2 was an amazing movie from start to finish i was in stitches. Also titans i admit i have not followed titans so i'm not tied to their history but i am loving the show. I binged the first two seasons in like 3 days and hate waiting for the new episodes. I don't really read reviews or critics stuff i go by what i enjoy. Critics are usually paid voices anyway.

    I just watched that yesterday, lol.

    On-topic: My really unpopular opinion is I really don’t see the current DC animated stuff as all that much better than Marvel’s animated stuff. DC is willing to make animated fare aimed at older audiences, but they’ve mostly gone downhill for me and there animated stuff too focused on the Trinity or Batman for myself to really care. So Disney handling the animation like they’ve handled Marvel’s animation department; wouldn’t be that much of a downgrade. We still haven’t even gotten a WW animated series after all these years. Though, I will say the new Superman show looks promising and fun. So I’ll be on the look out for that.
